Prompt: How long or in what way do you think that ww2 could have been different if it were in modern day times.
How may Elie's life be different if ww2 never occurred and Hitler never came into power.
The first way that I think that the war could have been different is that it most likely would have lasted longer than it did when it actually occurred. With the technology that we have today it allows us to know crucial information in a few hours opposed to back then when it took a few days such as finding out where the enemy was. Nazis could have easily deployed a drone undetected and could have found out in little to no time at all where the ssr were and how much that they were progressing per hour or day. This could have been bad also because if the ssr was closing in, the Nazis would have been able to just kill a whole bunch of the Jews fast using weapons that had to do with chemical warfare instead of having to bring all of them at once.
The way that the war could be different is that it could have been shorter mainly because we could have used our advance guns and grenades etc... to end the war fast. A weapon today that could have been useful at that time was the stun grenade because it did not pose as much of a risk as the traditional grenade did to carry around and what it would do. If you went in and threw a grenade in a bunker it could kill some of the Jews and also kill the Nazi but if you throw a flash grenade then the Nazi will be helpless and could be taken down with the least amount of damage possible thus saving more Jews.
The way that I thought that Elie's life may have been different is that he could be working a regular job today and have had a nice good long life. It is hard to imagine what his life may have been like mainly due to the fact that what really happened has just left a print of what life was back in Germany in 1937 till 45. I think that he probably would have been a writer like he is know because he is good at writing about his life and telling the truth about how he felt just like what he said when he had soup after a man was hanged and how it tasted good, he did not lie and say how he was all devastated.
