Holocaust Denial - It aint in Egypt!

You —

The title was gonna be 'Holocaust Denial - - everyone does it', but I like this one better.

So... today I watched House. Pretty good.

Thenturned over to question Time. It was so, so.

But then the question came about that historian (Irvine?) who denied the holocause in 1989, and has not been sentenced to three years in prison.

Everyone gave thoughtful answers. Then came on this Tory MP who gave a passioned reply, but left the thought out of it.

It was basically how we are all anti-semitic, and while insulting the prophet ﷺ should be allowed, she would not mind if holocause denial became a criminal act.

She called it a criminal act that resulted in the muder of 6 million jews and others.

Come again? 6 million?

She just denied the Holocaust.

and most people are not aware that (well according to what i was taught) between 10 and 12 million people were killed. Approx 6-7 million were thought to be jewish.

So why does everyone do a disservice to this terrible attrocity to say onyl a certain race was targetted?

The current meaning:

'To deny the murder of 6 million jews.' is how I think it is used. I think that usage is incorrect.

There was a programme on TV last night about the end of hitler, and the surrender of the nazi's.

At the end, befoer the credits: 'Six million jews were killed.'

No reference to anyone else being killed.

I find it all all rather revisionist...

[quote="(*_Khamzat"]Quick Question

I’ve never understood the exact meaning of denying the holocaust , does it mean:

A) Completely to deny it ever happened?

B) To argue over the exact number’s killed in the Holocaust?

C) OR A and B[/quote]

Either of the above, typically coupled with an assertion that Jews have conspired either to bring about the holocaust or to invent it from a fiction. Obviously haggling over exact numbers based on credible records is not holocaust denial. Holocaust denial is desperately low antisemitism.

Admin, you are reeking of sneakiness. It is honestly depressing to read your recent comments on this subject because I had thought you were above this line of thinking. Anyway.

Shabbat Shalom.

I was just pointing that out, as you did ask previously for 'evidence' of something which cannot be proven. So when I spotted that, I made a mental note of it.

Incidentally did anyone else watch that docu/drama? It was in german with subtitles I think...

This is one of those topics where I ahve not played devil's advocate. Its something I had noted over time, but ehre is the first time i have expressed my thoughts on the matter... slightly incoherent, but not sneaky in the slightest.

Sh'vua Tov. Admin, I only asked you to support your claim and you provided evidence that countered your claim. Now you say I asked for an impossible proof. Evidence is not proof and you didn't have either.

And you are piling loose points on each other to give a general impression that something, anything is amiss in accounts of the holocaust. You are being - if sneaky isn't the word, and if you aren't being disingenuous - corrupt.
