The choices made by the perpetrators of the pogrom of Kristallnacht impacted the events fo the Holocaust because it was a turning point from violent propaganda into violent action against Jews, Jewish businesses, and Jewish homes. An example of a perpetrator was the officer that Hugo Moses encountered. The officer said, "I have been ordered to arrest all Jewish men. Don't make it so hard for me, just follow me" (Gerhardt & Karlauf 21). This shows how an individual made a choice to harm others.
