Consider yourself WARNED.
On
the 12th of October 1940, Yom Kippur, Warsaw Jews were informed that the ghetto
was being created. It was located in the northern part of the city, in the
centre of the former Jewish quarter. In mid-November it was cut off from the
outside world, and a high wall built around it.
Did you get that? Only 1 month later did the Nazis build a wall as a permanent statement that the Jews in the ghetto were screwed.
All of Warsaw's Jews now
had to squeeze into a space that amounted to only 2.4% of the city's area.
The separation of the ghetto from the surrounding area meant the severance of
most Jews' economic ties, and prevented them from accessing the property they
still had. Some 2 000 Jews who had earlier converted to Christianity but who
were now affected by the Nazi race laws were also sent to the ghetto.
Less than 2 years later, the Nazis began deporting the Jews from the Warsaw Ghetto to death camps.
On the 22nd of July 1942, Jews started to be deported from the Warsaw ghetto to the extermination camps.
I don't know how to make it any clearer.
