LOL!!!!! you've done nothing but try to convince folks that the Holocaust didn't happen. planting little eggs of doubt and excuses to be doubtful.
Just because I have never seen them does not mean they do not exist. But then agian I am not trying to prove they do, just as I am not trying to prove God exists. (Oh and see how I can disagree with you without trying to insult you over your firmly held beliefs. Wierd)
______ I was born before WWII and was reading and see photos of the Holocaust at the early age of nine years of age. During the War the U.S. and it's allies were well aware that genocide was taking place in Europe and with censorship (Yes there was censorship) the information was for the most part kept from the American people until the last months of the war . Along with the 6 million Jews that were murdered by the Nazi's, Jehovah Witnesses, and Romanian Gypsies were also virtually exterminated too. It was also estimated more than 60 million humans were designated as Displaced Persons immediately after WWII.
Virtually everything a person believes in the modern world they did not see with their own eyes. If people only believed stuff they personally witnessed, most forms of education and knowledge transfer would be utterly useless.
The vast majority of bigoted holocaust deniers are from the radical far right. Interesting how so many are today openly expressing such a ridiculous idea but no surprise given that they are such ardent supporters of Trump.

(Michael Probst/AP) By Associated Press August 7 at 10:08 AM Ernst Zündel, a far-right activist who rose to notoriety over decades of public neo-Nazi activity in Canada and the United States before being deported to his native Germany on Holocaust denial charges, has died. He was 78. Marina Lahmann, a spokeswoman for the community of Bad Wildbad in Baden-Württemberg where Mr. Zündel lived, told the Associated Press that Mr. Zündel died over the weekend. She had no further information, saying the paperwork had not yet been processed. The news media in Canada quoted a statement from his wife, Ingrid Zündel, saying that he died of a heart attack at his home Aug. 6. ADVERTISING Born in Germany in 1939, Mr. Zündel immigrated to Canada in 1958 — allegedly to avoid German military service — and lived in Toronto and Montreal until 2001. He achieved international notoriety for his neo-Nazi beliefs and writings, including “The Hitler We Loved and Why,” and operated Samisdat Publishers, a leading distributor of Nazi and Nazi-era propaganda. He also provided regular content for an eponymous far-right website. Canadian officials rejected his attempts to obtain citizenship in 1966 and 1994. After leaving Canada, he moved to Pigeon Forge, Tenn., where he had married fellow right-winger Ingrid Rimland. In 2003, he was deported to Canada for alleged immigration violations. After he arrived in Toronto, he was arrested and held in detention until a judge ruled in 2005 that his activities posed a threat to national and international security and he was deported to Germany, where he was being sought for Holocaust denial. Denial of the Holocaust is illegal in Germany. Because Mr. Zündel’s Holocaust-denying website was available in Germany, he was considered to have been spreading his message to Germans. Mr. Zündel, who portrayed himself as a peaceful campaigner being denied the right to free speech, was convicted in Mannheim in 2007 of 14 counts of inciting hatred for engaging in years of anti-Semitic activities and sentenced to five years in prison. After he served his sentence, a crowd of some 20 supporters clapped and shouted “Bravo” as he was released from prison in Mannheim in 2010. Outside the prison, he refused to comment on his beliefs about the Holocaust, saying only that “it’s kind of a sad situation, there’s a lot to say,” before adding, “I’ll certainly be careful not to offend anyone and their draconian laws.”
I have a fish named Uranus - does that count? Stupid thread with some great replies, but I'll give the OP half a point for objecting to Holocaust denial being a criminal offense. I likes me some free speech, even if repugnant.
that's pretty ignorant, as there were only maybe 300,000 Jews in Germany when the Holocaust began in 1938
Is the World Almanac a reliable source? http://vho.org/aaargh/fran/livres3/HoaxV2.pdf (excerpt) ------------------------------------- The 1939 study of Arthur Ruppin, Professor of Jewish Sociology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, gave 16,717,000 Jews in the world in 1938. 17 Because Ruppin (who passed away in 1943) was considered the fore-most expert on such matters, on account of many writings on the subject over a period of many years, the estimates of other pre-war sources tend to agree with him. Thus the American Jewish Committee estimate for 1933, which ap- pears in the 1940 World Almanac, was 15,315,359. The World Almanac figure for 1945 is 15,192,089 (page 367); no source is given but the figure is appar-ently based on some sort of religious census. The 1946 World Almanac re-vised this to 15,753,638, a figure which was retained in the editions of 1947 (page 74, 1948 (page 572) and 1949 (page 289). The 1948 World Almanac (page 249) also gives the American Jewish Committee estimate for 1938 (sic ), 15,688,259 while the 1949 World Almanac (page 204) reports new figures from the American Jewish Committee which were developed in 1947-1948: 16,643,120 in 1939 and 11,266,600 in 1947. ----------------------------------------
