None of us know how many Jews died. It was too many whatever the number. Back in the 1960s, I read a study by a population expert who said the number was closer to 3 million. I have no idea who is right, I suppose it will never be settled.

Do you think that this crap rising to the top of P&OC around Passover is a coincidence?

It isn't.
You are correct that it is not a coincidence.

Post #1 confirms that. The source of the survey is agenda driven. Just not in the way that you want to believe.

Calm down. The post said skew not screw big difference.

And yes there are people that try to skewer the numbers in people's minds.

Ever been to the Killing Fields in Cambodia? I have.

Ever hear of the Killing Tree? The Khmer Rouge used to beat children to death against it.

Yup. I just made a snowflake's ignore list for pointing out that things such as movies, documentaries, books, etc typically have investors who want to see a return on the their money and resources.

Somehow I'm sure this post is anti-Semitic. Also, Trump is bad like Hitler and Guatemalans are sure to do quality drywall work in Iowa upon arrival. Completely up to code.

Don't need to tell me about Cambodia. My brother was there and my X fiance had a brother that was killed there. I think I have a fair idea about what war can do. But have you visited any camps or are you truly familiar with exactly the torture these people suffered before they were killed? My guess is you are not. thisis not disputing what war has done to many and how bad it can be. It isn't saying innocent children do not suffer. I still maintain the Holocaust was the worse thing ever to happen in our live time.

And there you go proving my point.

WWII death toll = 75 million plus
Holocaust death toll = 6 million

Yet somehow the holocaust is worse? They have good marketing, I'll give them that.

It's the number that's a guess, not the crime.

Huh?

If you can't see the difference between the death toll caused by war, and the death toll of an organized extermination of a group of people because of their faith, then I feel sorry for you.

Disgusted actually.
