"Armed resistance was not the first response of the Jews. It was
difficult and dangerous for the Jews to obtain weapons.
Anti-Semitism was widespread, and Jewish resistance did not have
popular support. Jewish leaders in the ghettos knew that the Nazis
could kill everyone in the ghetto in revenge for the actions of a
few resisters. Buy many Jews who managed to escape the ghettos
joined secret bands of fighters against the Nazis. And some
non-Jewish individuals risked their lives to smuggle Jews to
safety."
