Hi, I'm so sorry but this is one subject that cannot be simplified, I've tried long and hard to find sites that can be directed for young people, alas to no avail, so here is what we have to work with.\n\nWebsites for Holocaust Education\n\nA comprehensive list of links for you to explore.\n\nhttp://www.cumbavac.org/Holocaust.htm\n\nThe Holocaust History Project is a free archive of documents, photographs, recordings, and essays regarding the Holocaust, including direct refutation of Holocaust-denial.\n\nhttp://www.holocaust-history.org/\n\nThe Jewish Holocaust 1933-1945\n\nhttp://facultystaff.vwc.edu/~dgraf/holocaus.htm\n\nOur site is not the only one on the World Wide Web dealing with the Holocaust.  Certainly an event of such tragic magnitude deserves as much coverage as possible from a wide variety of angles.  Here are some other sites that you can visit for more information.\n\nhttp://library.thinkquest.org/12663/ref.htm\n\nConcentration Camp Listing\n\nhttp://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Holocaust/cclist.html\n\nGood luck.

The only point of debate over the Holocaust is EXACTLY how many Jews were put to death and by what means.  The number ranges from 1.1 million to 7 million people killed by several methods.  No matter how you look at it, it was still a lot of people in a targetted cultural group.  The very existence of the Holocaust is not a debate among any real historians.\n\nDid it exist?  Most definitely.  Was it wrong?  Yep.  Did a lot of jews die for a racist cause?  Yep.  So give it up already.

You are wrong on so many levels. To begin with, it very much is allowed to research the holocoust in europe and the usa and even to deny it, if that is what you wish. In ONLY ONE COUNTRY is it illegal to deny the holocaust. Not in all europe, and not in the usa... \nIf you wish to be ignorant then you can continue to deny historical facts, but if hundreds of thousands of testimony from various individuals involved, including survivors, those who ran the camps, those who transported jews etc, Thousands of films and photos of camps, victims etc. And finally the camps themsleves still exist.. If that doesnt convince you.. then I feel sorry for you..

What's "The Reality" of the holocaust?  Are you saying that  A. It didn't happen, B. It was a good thing, or C. Other.  Help us out a little.

Not many people are alive today that were at Pearl Harbor and I believe that the last survivor of the Titanic died recently.  \n\nThe first movie about the Titanic didn't come out until 1943.\n\nI think the fact that 9/11 was a terrorist attack on our own homeland soil is the reason it is such a touchy subject.

This question worries me on various levels. Can it be that there are educational systems in the world that blithely skip over the great horrors humanity has visited on itself? Will the murders of the Armenians, Jews, Cambodians, Kulaks, Tutsis ... God forgive me for not mentioning them all ... just become "legends" for future generations?

This is more a response to your WW2 question but i messed up and it wont let me post\n\nI love the way people esp. christians never understand questions. Its f*ing obvious what you are asking. I get similar crap answers to my questions too. I once asked why other groups i.e non jews had forgotten the 'true' creation story, if indeed they are decedent from Adam and Eve. why did only the jews remember these events? I got answers like " well I'm a Christian and not a Jew and I remember the Adam and Eve story" f*king hell, that's what we are dealing with here dude.

In 9th Grade World History, we had to watch doumentaries on the Holocaust. It showed footage of the mass graves, emaciated bodies being dumped into the pits; other prisoners being forced to do the dumping and burying. It showed the crematories and pictures of the experiments. It was horrible. The teacher even warned us a week beforehand, and told us we didn't have to watch it if our parents signed a form saying they didn't want us to. I thought if these people went through something so horrible, the least I could do was to try to understand just how horrible it was. So, I watched it. \n\nAnyway, the year before, I had gone to Europe, and one of the places I visited was Dachau (near Munich, one of the first concentration camps). There were pictures and all at Dachau about what went on, but nothing like this documentary. So, when we watched the films in class, I remembered where I had gone, and I realized what had happened on ground that I had actually walked over. It gave me nightmares. Horrible nightmares... But I'll never forget it, and if I could go back, I would still watch it. No matter how bad it was for me, it was infinitely worse for them.\n\nI still don't understand how so many people could have believed that it was OK to kill and dehumanize so many people. I don't get it. I know all the theories and all the reasoning, but it still doesn't "sink in." It was just so vast and incomprehensible. What scares me even more is that there are still groups of people here and there that glorify the Nazi movement and agree with it, even try to emulate it in some ways. There are people that don't believe it happened... and that just blows my mind.

I just asked a question about the Montauk Project myself.I read the books.They seem to be very technically correct about a lot of the  things they talk about.So who-ever wrote them wasn't an idiot or a nut making up a story. I believe that the things spoken of in the stories are more than likely possible.Whether or not they actually happened as it is written,or if we really do possess this secret technoIogy, I don't know.In a way though,I kind of hope it isn't completely true,because the story of these projects are filled with abuse and inhuman treatment of human beings in the name of scientific developement and whatever else.

Have ANY of you actually READ the book? \nI never cease to be appalled at the absolute blindness of the Jesus freaks. Not to mention that not one of you has yet answered the main question posed here.\nYes, the main theory behind the premise of the book is that Jesus has actual blood descendants still alive today. And that there is a secret society whose duty it is to trace the blood line through history and present the knowledge at the right time. \nNow, everyone here loves to just immediately scream "It is fiction!" and "Dan Brown made it up!" Well, if they had ANY idea what they were talking about, then they would know that Dan Brown DID NOT make up the theories presented in the book. The plot of course is his own idea, and is fiction, but the historical background he uses, which is what everyone is upset about, is NOT his idea.\nPlease, folks. Educate yourselves, find out WHAT he wrote. How can you say that what he wrote isn't true, if you don't even know what he wrote?\nBecause most of you have put your brain in the hands of various spiritual leaders, and you have made the conscious decision not to think for yourselves.\nSince my personal belief is that Jesus may have existed, but not as the son of God, then I believe that his blood line could still exist. Does a secret society exist for just this reason? Difficult to believe, but a cool idea.\nAnd because this stuff just really gets me going, I have to say something else. If all of the "Christians" truly believed they are following the One True Religion, and they also believe that every word of the Bible is true (my other favorite subject due to all of the discrepancies in it) why  aren't you showing mercy and compassion for all of the misguided?\nInstead you choose to scream for a banning of the book and a worldwide boycott of the movie. These are the actions of scared people. These are the actions of third world leaders who see their power crumbling. Those who have absolute faith in the truth of their beliefs would only grin, slightly amused, at all the turmoil.

At first this question offended me.  I suspected a touch of anti-semitic bias.\n\nThen I went on the web to look at some facts regarding the number of non-Jews who were also victims of the holocaust.  The facts lend legitimacy to the question.  There may have actually been MORE non-Jews killed in the death camps.  \n\n(For a quick read on this, go to the Wikipedia link below)\n\nSo, back to the original question..."Why is it that we only hear about the Jews killed in the concentration camps?"  \n\nMy guess is that they exist both as a homogenous group (Jewish) and as a nation (Israel) that is a close ally of the U.S.  All through the cold war years when we were writing our version of the history of the holocaust, many of the non-Jewish populations that were affected had fallen behind the iron curtain (Poland, Hungary, Romania, etc.).  For nearly 40 years the interests of these people and the stories of how they too suffered at the hands of the Gestapo were not foremost in our national awareness and empathy (let alone our textbooks). \n\nOther under-represented victims included the mentally or physically disabled, homosexuals, Jehovah's Witnesses, Communists and political dissidents, trade unionists, Freemasons, and some Catholic and Protestant clergy, many of whom were also persecuted and killed.  All of these were also less politically viable after the war or were also victims of our own ignorance and bias here in America.\n\n\nTo sum up, I don't think that there is some "devious plan" to manage the perception of the holocaust as an exclusively Jewish persecution.  I think that the rest of the various (and many) groups that were targeted simply didn’t engender anything like the unified outrage of the Jewish community and the state of Israel. \n\nGood question…made me think.

in all honesty... concentration camps were probably more humane than the hollows of a slave ship en route from the African continent to the US... However, I do think that the Nazis were definately issuing out unprecedented acts of cruelty on the Jews.  Now, I am African American, but I truely think horror is horror, and I don't see 1 being any better than the other.  However, at least the Jews still have a heritage to embrace, while all I have is myself to identify with in a foreign nation to my ancestors.  No no, I wouldn't weigh these horrors against each other... All I can say is, thank goodness I didn't have to endure through either... I'd most assuredly would not have stood either long enough to survive.

There is an excellent and very detailed analysis of this question in the book "Why People Believe Weird Things: Pseudoscience, Superstition, and Other Confusions of Our Time" by Michael Shermer. He discusses the motivations and tactics of those who deny the Holocaust ever happened; then he goes on to provide evidence of how we know it did. It's a fascinating book. I highly recommend it.\n\nAnd yes, as you can imagine, they are largely anti-Semitic with a bit of a paranoid streak, and tend to be conspiracy theorists as well.

I'm getting to the point that I cannot read or watch anything with violence in it, especially to children and animals. I had to stop reading horror books about 30 years ago because of that, and now I am just unable to watch a movie or any tv where there is violence especially involving children and animals. So I guess that's my personal taboo. \n\nI think people should talk about everything, and not be afraid to talk about everything.
