there's a push to promote this theory that any jews that died in concentration camps were due to illness, aggravated by cramped quarters and limited resources of war - not the result of intentional harm, persecution, and extrajudicial murder.
the media lies. universities are occupied by marxists. American Jews with no direct association with anything holocaust related tend to be the most extreme 'activists.' they all have an agenda. no argument from me.
but much of my exposure to events of WWII comes from personal accounts - family in Italy (my mother immigrated from Naples after WWII), my ex's family in Austria, people I met when I lived in France (any old person there will claim he or she was part of the "resistance." there is also very good documentation on the horrors inflicted not only on the jews (as well as homosexuals, gypsies...) but also upon the Germans - especially by the east Soviet troops rape-killing women by the thousands. and the US treatment of POWs no proud moment.
no doubt the 6 gorillion numbers are wrong, they're estimates. every party has a stake in inflating one or the other side. but shit did happen. and it was ugly.

I didn’t pick that up either. I read how certain toxic substances were used to intentional harm people.
