'“Night” by Elie Wiesel Essay\r'

'Elie Wiesel, a famed creator and survivor of the final solution stated quite just that anyone who sourceed a crime, and did nonhing to delay it is just as felonious as the one committing it. Elie Wiesel learned a lot active man’s character by surviving the Holocaust, but his statement almost a bystander being just as indictable as the unfeigned criminal is wrong.\r\nPeople are responsible for there consume actions, and it is not reasonably to blame someone for a crime they did not commit, whether they could have done something to stop it or not. During the Holocaust there were over 6 million flock persecuted, but there were umpteen more quiet bystanders who were unable to do anything because they feared for their lives. It is human nature to savour after your own wellbeing and those closest to you, and many people felt if they tried to do something to stop the persecution of Jews it would endanger them in one way or another. In some cases somebody can witnes s a horrible atrocity, but have no causality to stop it.\r\nElie wrote in his book about how he and his fellow Jews were forced to watch the temporary removal of a young and truthful child by the S.S. The Jews that witnessed the hanging of the boy were all tacit bystanders who, harmonize to Elie, should be punished in the same musical mode that the executioner was. This shows how wrong Elie’s judgment is. The Jews were unable to do anything to help the boy for fear of their own lives, people cannot be blamed for their most extreme and primitive instinct which is self preservation.\r\nElie Wiesel experienced a lot of pain and suffering during the Holocaust, but the mute bystanders cannot be punished the same way the actual criminal is no matter what the circumstance is. If Elie unfeignedly believes that a silent bystander is just as guilty as a criminal, then that would mean that he is guilty of hanging a young innocent boy and deserves to be killed or sent to prison. Although it’s easy to see where Elie’s statement is access from and why he chose to make it, it is clear that he made his statement more out of perception than actual logic. I disagree with his judgment because silent bystanders do not always have the power to stop or intervene with the crime without endangering themselves.\r\n'
