What is the effect of the repetition in Anne's statement that All we can do is wait… Jews and Christians alike are waiting, the whole world is waiting, and many are waiting for death?

The repetition of the word "waiting" emphasizes Anne's opinion that the war will last for a long period of time. It also suggests that Anne has become indifferent to the whole situation.

Explanation:

In her diary, Anne Frank described her experience of hiding in an annex with her family, during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. The diary contains Anne's personal thoughts and feelings during this difficult period.

In this particular excerpt, Anne first writes about all the hardships that Jews face in the war. She, however, reminds herself that Jews are not the only group of people that is suffering. Everyone is waiting for the war to end, but Anne realizes that the war is a result of a much bigger problem. In order for the war to be truly over, people need to change their attitudes and give up hating each other. It is clear to Anne that this will not happen in recent future. The repetition of the word 'waiting' indicates that it seems to Anne that the war will last for an indefinite period of time. This point of view suggests that she has become indifferent to the future - she does not care about the outcome of the war or whether she will survive.
