You bring up some great points Andy_Man45. My father was in Germany after the war. I have no reason to believe that my father lied to me about what he saw in the camps. He was attached to a high ranking general and was privy to all kinds of classified information. He was sickened and was deeply affected by what he saw. According to him, it was incomprehensible that people could be that inhumane. He had no doubts as to what happened.

I know many people who's entire immediate and extended families were wiped out and only they survived. I also know several people that decades after the war ended, they were finally told the truth - that they were in fact Jewish children that were raised by Christian families in order to save them. I also personally know people that were born in the refugee camps after the war ended. Many Jews were still kept in camps alongside their German overlords. So, I think we need to approach this whole issue of the denial of wartime atrocities carefully. I put more stock in those that were actually there and saw what happened. Are they all lying? That is ridiculous. Unfortunately, many of those that were eyewitnesses have now passed leaving the floor open for those that may have other agendas to muddy the waters. There is no one living that can refute what appears to be new evidence. How convenient.

Here is another angle to consider. What benefit can be derived by trying to downplay the extent of the extermination? If people can be led to believe that such a thing did not happen, then they would be less likely to think it could happen in our day? Look at all the vaxxine injury deniers. They wouldn't kill thousands of people, if not millions, like that - now would they? They would then be less likely to believe that we can be rounded up and killed in quarantine camps now. It amazes me how people can discount the testimony of millions that were actually there and basically call them liars. We can have an honest debate on the actual numbers and about those responsible, but to discount the events and invalidate the tragedy suffered by so many is beyond cruel. It in itself is inhumane. If we cannot learn by the mistakes of history, we are helpless to keep it from happening again.
