The holocaust and sex trafficking are very similar. They both have many differences and similarities. Different people are targeted for different reasons. The leaders of the crimes are very sneaky while in the doing. Between these two crimes they had obtained power and kept the power in similar ways.

                The people that were targeted in the holocaust and sex trafficking are different. In the holocaust the Jewish people were mainly targeted. In sex trafficking anybody can get targeted. However, mainly the woman and children get targeted. With sex trafficking there is normally more than one crime taking place in the doing of one major crime. For an example someone kidnaps a child or woman to sell across the country.  Two crimes are being committed one is the kidnapping the other one is the illegal selling of one against will.  However with the holocaust only one crime was taken place because they did not force you to go to the concentration camps they gave you false hope about the circumstances there. For example with the holocaust they slowly took ones rights away and gave them belief they were going somewhere better, when they weren’t.

They people that are targeted in either situation are still similar. With both of the crimes they still involve the over ruling and the violent factor on a human being. They both can require brutal abuse physically and mentally. Often times the victim are poorly feed in sex trafficking as well as they did in the holocaust. Both crimes are also holding the victim(s) against their will. Even though they are really different they can be similar in ways.

The people among the two crimes were targeted for different reasons. With the holocaust the Jewish people were targeted among their beliefs. However, woman and children are targeted in sex trafficking by many different reasons. The woman and children are targeted often times for the strength to do work. Also if you are good sale bait for example if the criminal thinks you will sell for a lot of money from your looks or built chances are you will be targeted. You may also get targeted for sex commercial, and being held against your will to get money to pay off a dept.

The leaders in each crime easily obtained power. Once they had the victim in hand they would simply threat them or make them have false belief about where they are going and why. On the other hand maintain power came difficult in some areas for both the holocaust and sex trafficking. Both crimes hold or held abuse to make one listen, isolation and other brutal circumstances. The time for the victims to talk to another didn’t exist long at all. The leader(s) in both crimes very well knew or know more communication between each other the less they would have power over and the less time.

No matter what happens in the world things like the holocaust will always happen. Explaining all the similarities and differences make more realize history repeats itself and lives on. No matter how much action is taken place the criminal events will happen like this every day.

Human Trafficking
                Human trafficking is a huge problem all over the world. Human trafficking can be defined as simple as the buying and selling of humans. There is a wide verity of human trafficking such as sex trafficking this is where teenagers or young adults are being forced to have sexual relations with a “customer”. They are often times young girls being forced into this category but not always in some cases young boys have had this happen as well. Their boss is usually referred to as a pimp. By the time these girls get out if they ever do the pimp if often times gone and police cannot track them down. It is a serious crime in many different countries as well as the United States. There has been a hotline and a task force set up to help young girls that have been taken to sex trafficking or sex slavery. Like sex trafficking domestic servitude trafficking is a serious criminal offence. Domestic servitude trafficking is where a child often times is taped doing sexual things. There is a big demand for this among rich people in Asia and the Persian Gulf. Another type of trafficking is child labor trafficking. This is the worst type of child trafficking; the children are being targeted and taken across the globe. Child labor is really hazardous to children’s health. Some children can be taken by a kidnapping, threatening them, or by bribery. The conditions people in the trafficking sale don’t live in very good conditions, they are usually in one room, with many people. They don’t get to eat on a normal schedule. There are many different way traffickers get the women and children to obey them. The trafficker wants to be in control so they will take away their passport, their birth certificate and identification card. They might also threaten to hurt other family members in that person’s family. In some cases the trafficker has forced the women to marry him; this puts in control of their lives. The trafficker can be anybody, from a group of people or a single person. The trafficker could be male or female, a family person or even a trusted community person. Many of the people brought into human trafficking are never seen or found again, and they lucky ones who escape are never the same. They could have diseases, sociological damage, and many are scared of everyday noises. For more information visit http://humantrafficking.org
