An SS man says to a Jew in a concentration camp: "You are to be killed today, but I will give you a chance. One of my eyes is a glass eye. If you can guess which one it is, I will give you your life."
The Jew looks at the SS man and says, "The left one, Herr Corporal."
"That is correct. How did you recognize it?"
"Because it looks so human."
Fantastic.
Oldie but a goodie
Brutal.
In this unpredictable world it sure is nice knowing the best joke is always in the comments.
Ah, not the version I heard. The way I've heard it the guy asks god if he cant tell him a joke and god says, "sure" and then he tells a holocaust joke and god, somewhat miffed goes, "I don't think that's very funny." To which the guy replies, "Oh, I guess you had to be there."
Holy shit
A Moshe from Judenrat?
Here's another joke that was popular during the war:
At 9:30 last night, a Jew in Poland killed an SS officer, cut out his heart and ate it. Why is this story untrue?
For three reasons. An SS officer has no heart, Jews do not eat pork, and at 9:30 at night everyone in Poland is listening to the BBC anyway.
What was on the BBC at the time?
Not na expert, but during that time British radio was all prohibited because they obviously where anti-nazi
8pm, gotta be Eastenders
Bomb warnings, resistance reports, news broadcasts, and the allied troop movements that had been made public.
Ugh all you have to do is Google it. BBC, big black .... I Googled the wrong thing!
Good one
First and foremost, there was accurate (more or less) news of the war. Newspapers in occupied Europe were either banned to conserve paper or were heavily censored by the Germans, who only allowed news of German victories to be published. Radio ownership was forbidden under the occupation, but most people wealthy enough to afford a set were able to keep one hidden, even if it was just a simple homemade crystal receiver. Besides the news there was other programming intended to lift the spirits of people under occupation, including patriotic music and jokes like this one. Radio programs included helpful instructions on how to resist against the occupiers, both passively and through direct action. The BBC also sent coded messages to communicate instructions to resistance groups.
I remember reading victor Frankel's book and he told about this artist who survived the holocaust. He saw a funeral and started laughing hysterically, when being asked why he was laughing he replied "all that hooplah over a single corpse". That made me laugh and also feel morbid.
Last time I heard this joke, the Japanese bombed pearl harbour
Ah, the good old days...
The Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.
Obviously not many cinema fans on Reddit today my friend. But don’t give up, nothing is over until we decide it is!!
Am I missing something or do you genuinely think that
Please watch Animal House with John Belushi. Then you'll appreciate the joke.
It's their sense of humor that sustained them as a people for 3000 years.

You have no idea what my people have been through
Many many butts, no doubt
First time seeing this. Damn. This is astounding
Tangentially related, I read Maus II last week (I read 1 back in college). Fantastic books, would highly recommend. They're in graphic novel format so even if you don't like reading you can still enjoy them
I find Concentration Camp jokes very offensive!!!!!!
My grandfather died in a Concentration camp!!

Moishe Goldberg died and somehow ended up before God.
"I have a Holocaust joke for you" says Moishe.
"Ok, tell me"
So Moishe tells the joke.
God says "I don't get it"
"Well, I guess you had to be there"
