Let me tell first I'm a liberal Indian (Hindu) not anti-Jew!
After reading Anne Frank's diary and watching poignant tales on TV movies, I felt very sorry for the Holocaust survivors and wanted to share my feelings with my grandpa, who's a historian (not that famous) working on the Indus civilization.
I received a shock when he said he believed the whole Holocaust thing is a bluff created by Jews. We debated and argued a lot on it since I'd seen photos and videos showing the suffering of the Jews and could not believe him!
I also said that the Jews, being largely outnumbered by Christians couldn't have staged the whole thing, but the old man didn't change his opinion. Instead he said I was sympathising with Jews who according to him are the richest people because of their cunning tendency.(like John D. Rockefeller)
He too argued back that if Holocaust was true, why would its denial amount to jail in some European countries? Why no freedom of speech?
