His life was taken due to his father's actions. To make it worse he did not die instantly, he died slowly and suffered because he was a child, therefore he was extremely light.
A man named Elie Wiesel gave an important speech. “The Perils of Indifference" was about indifference and his views on this topic.

A victim is a person who is put to death or subjected to torture by another; one who suffers severely in body or property through cruel or oppressive treatment, and in the case of World War 2 the Jews were the victims of the era.

Wiesel, Jewish political activist and Holocaust witness, begins his address to President Reagan by setting his medal as a symbol inclusive of “all those who remember what SS killers have done”.

Night, fire and death are things that occur many times throughout the book, death being a very big one. Death stands out the most because it happens so much in the book and people are so used to it, they act as if it 's a normal thing. For example, "Babies!
