Some Jews did fight back. In some cases, they did so by escaping to the woods and fighting with Slavic (usually Russian) partisans. In other cases, they did so in ghetto riots, the most famous being the Warsaw Ghetto uprising which took over a month for the Nazis to quell. In still other cases, they used subterfuge and rebellion in the Concentration Camps and Death Camps, such as the Sonderkommando Riot. However, the strength of those Jews who resisted was vastly inferior to the firepower and manpower that the Nazis employed to viciously respond to the insurrections.

Answer
I think it was a case of history. Jews have been persecuted for eons and most believed that if they did the armbands, moved, etc. they would be okay. Just as it was for other countries to catch on to the Nazi's intentions, so it was with the Jews in Europe. Some families acted faster than others and moved out of harm's way. For instance, Ann Frank's family left Frankfurt, Germany, for the Netherlands. They left in time, just did not make the judgment that the Netherlands would come under the Nazi regime. There are stories of some small populations fighting guerrilla style battles, but they were not enough. An interesting book to read is John Hersey's The Wall, about the Warsaw Jews who moved underground.
there were a few revolts but the Nazis always end up succeeding. the Jews had no weapons and they were weak and underfed and sick so its pretty difficult for them to accomplish a successful revolt. One of the most successful revolts was on August 2, 1943 at treblinka death camp, or should i say one of the most nearly successful revolts, prisoners quietly seized weapons from the camp armory, but were discovered before they could take over the camp. Hundreds of prisoners stormed the main gate in an attempt to escape. Many were killed by machine-gun fire. More than 300 did escape -- though two thirds of those who escaped were eventually tracked down and killed by German SS and police as well as military units. Acting under orders from Lublin, German SS and police personnel supervised the surviving prisoners, who were forced to dismantle the camp. After completion of this job, the German SS and police authorities shot the surviving prisoners
Basically they couldn't. The way that the Nazis treated them was intended to minimise the possibility of revolt. For this to be answered properly you need to be more specific with a time and a place.
They were outnumbered in strength. There were attempts to organise resistance throughout the war. The most notable action took place in Warsaw in 1943. The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising began April 19 when German troops tried to round up the remaining residents to be shipped to the camps.
The battle raged for nearly a month before the Germans crushed the resistance on May 16.
The battle was furious, with about 750 Jewish and Polish resistance fighters battling with well armed and well trained Waffen SS, Gestapo and Wermacht troops and Polish police and collaborators force of about 2,000 troops. Eventually the troops destroyed the ghetto, killing 7,000 in the uprising and shipping 50,000 plus to the extermination and labour camps. Small pockets of resistance continued on until June with determined fighters hiding out in the ghetto and fighting on.
AnswerTake any social psychology class and you will learn the answer in depth. Don't be surprised when you find out the 65% of white New Haven Connecticut men ranging in level of income and education all conformed to an experimenter's request to deliver painful electric shocks to another person in what was deemed a n experiment that utilized punishment to make someone learn ambiguous word pairs._____
That experiment (the Milgram Experiment) was an investigation of the pyschology of the perpetrators, not the victims, and is not really relevant.
