Were there even 6 million Jews in Germany?



According to the print, there were about 14 millions Jews worldwide at the time.

So, Germany, murdered about half of them?

does the number really matter, people were murdered, LOTS of them

Read the date on the newspaper.

You are an IDIOT!

Open a history book and you will learn that the Nazis killed jews from all over Europe, not just German Jews.

Hittler killed Jews in Poland, Ukraine, Russia, Germany, Hungary, Austria, France, etc...

Anyway, how is this a Mid-East issue. This is a European issue circa 1939-1945.

Additionally, as a poster noted above, this new paper was published in 1933 when hitler first came to power. The persecution of the jews didn't really hit full speed until Kristallnacht in 1938.

The newspaper is from 1933. Enough said.

You forget, the Nazi's killed the Jewish people in the countries they occupied as well.

Poland lost an estimated 3,000,000 alone.

Here are the stats I could find by country.

Total estimated Jewish people murdered 5,709,329

Hi. This is the Mid-east issues forum.

The Holocaust in WW2 is nothing to do with the middle east. As I recall it happened in Europe. It also happened over 60 years ago.

As such, this thread is closed pending review. Maybe you could drop me a U2U and explain your thinking, so that we can sort out the right forum for this to be posted in.

LOL. So why was Germany being the only target of the Holocaust? Seems like the WHOLE world wanted them out. I wonder why? LOL
