Why are you making it just about jewish people?
Inclusion of non-Jewish victims of the Nazis in the Holocaust is objected to by many persons including Elie Wiesel, and by organizations such as Yad Vashem established to commemorate the victims of the Holocaust.[31] They say that the word was originally meant to describe the extermination of the Jews, and that the Jewish Holocaust was a crime on such a scale, and of such totality and specificity, as the culmination of the long history of European antisemitism, that it should not be subsumed into a general category with the other crimes of the Nazis.[31]

Hello. Do not want to get into another futile heated discussion, just want to know where this
..... and that that 6 million number comes from a Jewish prophecy that the Jewish messiah could not come before 6 million died.
comes from. Being Jewish myself, never seen this.
Thank you in advance.

Early attempts to introduce Holocaustianity's kernel - a hoax of "six million" dead or dying Jews - failed, when global conditions did not include the prerequisite critical mass of corrupt world leaders. In June 1900, for example, Rabbi Stephen Wise spoke of Rabbi Stephen Wise"6,000,000 living, bleeding, suffering arguments in favour of zionism". Another botched attempt to kick-start the myth was in 1919, when few believed Martin Glynn's claims of "six million" starving Jews. In 1936, Chaim Weizmann told of "six million" Jews in Europe who were unwanted and effectively sentenced to be imprisoned.
The derivation of the "six million" is an ancient Jewish prophecy, which predicts the return of the Jews to the "Promised Land" after the loss of six million of their number. Specifically, the six stems from the sixth letter "vav" in the Hebrew alphabet or alefbet. Six is the number of man in the Jewish tradition, since vav is said to be a picture of man. Man was supposedly created on the sixth day, works for six days of the week, and the "beast" has the "number of a man" - 666. Six billion deaths would be credible only to utter nincompoops; six thousand would be too insignificant to yield appreciable income and political capital. Hence, six million was chosen as a figure that almost everyone could agree on.
The few who had been duped by the pre-WWII scams did provide some cash. However, the crooked zionist mafia were already immensely rich by the time of Glynn's assertions, through seizing control of US and European central banks and newspapers, and looting Russia in the "Bolshevik Revolution". Nowadays these crime supremos will not even get out of bed for anything less than a billion dollars, unless the project provides other non-financial benefits.
It was not until the zionists had instigated a Second World War which killed in excess of fifty million that these genocidal gangsters tricked the world into providing them with their own sovereign state, and into allowing the establishment of the new religion that would be employed to stifle all opposition. Control of their own state - "Israel" in occupied Palestine - would furnish a base for terrorist (Mossad) training camps, nuclear weapons, and the zionist international crime syndicate.

No my friend, I am not happy at all that the event happened, not only did relatives of mine die an untimely death in World War II but so did about 52 million other people die tragic, cruel, unnecessary and untimely deaths.
The use of the word happy in my text is not meant to imply a joyus celebration of the event.
It is used to imply that you, yourself are cognisant, and accept, that the events of the holocaust happened.
Do you understand that?
In that context, what is your response?

I don't, I asked a specific question about the Jews and that doesn't dismiss the prosecution of other groups of people.
Most of the mentally ill and people with Down-syndrome were killed by euthanasia and there is evidence to back this up. They weren't sent to concentration camps but to institutes specialised in murdering these people.
en.wikipedia.org...
How bad these murders are, they don't confirm the "death camps" (only named so after the war, before that they were known as concentration camps) of Auschwitz or others. This took also place in a different period.

The problem is this sezsue.
Is a call for the boycott of goods grounds for the industrialised slaughter of people?
And is it grounds to subsequently question the event or try and "sanitise" its motives in some way?
And - as I highlighted above, what about the other groups of people killed by the Nazi's in a similar manner. What does it have to do with them, exactly?
It wasn't just jewish people killed in the holocaust - you do realise that, don't you?

What you fail to understand is that "buggering about with numbers" does NOT equate to denying the genocide of occurring. In your little world, "Questioning" and "Denying" are one in the same.
Let me put this in simple words for you, because what I've written so far apparently does not seem to have sunk in.
I have no problem with people questioning numbers, because frankly no one knows exact figures for sure.
I do have a problem with people using the questioning of numbers as a basis for outright denial of the whole event
Can I make that much clearer? I don't think I can.
I'm replying to these three posts in one go because, frankly, its clear to me that your sole basis for arguing about the holocaust is to do with an axe you have to grind against jewish people.

Regen - this isn't just about jewish people. As I stated above, it wasn't just jewish people that were killed in the holocaust
What about the ethnic poles, slavs, russian prisoners of war, mentally handicapped, jehovahs witnesses, political dissidents, members of the resistance movements, community leaders etc?
Why are you making it just about jewish people?

A question for those that doubt the holocaust: where, in your opinion, have all these people gone, if they didn't die in the camps? because they did not return to their families.
