Answer 1

All the evidence points to the fact that the Holocaust happened.

The Nazi's managed an incredibly efficient war and subjugation of minorities machine. The sheer power of the German war machine of 1938-40 is evidenced by how rapidly they forced the Anschluß, took the Sudetenland, broke up Czechoslovakia annexing Bohemia and Moravia, then conquering Poland, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Denmark, Channel Islands, Norway and France, plus attacking the Soviet Union taking control of Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Belarus, Ukraine, plus vast swathes of Russia. They also rescued their allies' disasters in Finland, Italy and South-East Europe and created puppet governments in Vichy-France, Slovakia, Hungary and Croatia. This was a well oiled machine.

Considering the speed with which they managed this, there is surely no reason to doubt they could engineer the destruction of the minorities they took a dislike to. Not only Jews, but Gypsies, gays, Communists and the mentally ill were all singled out to be eradicated from society. Like the way they ran the War (or the early part of it at least), the destruction of the Jews was carefully planned although it developed from segregation to eradication during the War.

The wearing of the Star of David, the forced ghettoisation, the random shootings, the trials of gas vans, and eventually the death camps were all extremely well thought out ways of breaking the Jews.

The death camps weren't all like Auschwitz. Indeed it could be said that Auschwitz was unique amongst the Nazi camp system as it combined three camps in one and was for the most part a forced labour camp. However Birkenau II was a death-***-concentration camp and that's the part that most people think of when they mention Auschwitz. However, the Auschwitz set-up was completely different to most of the other death camps. For example Treblinka was hardly a camp at all, but simply a station, a processing room, the gas chambers, then the crematoria. The only forced labour at Treblinka was those who pushed the bodies into the ovens. This really was a death camp and I think I'm right in saying that whilst you may only have had a 10% of surviving Auschwitz, the survival rate of Treblinka was virtually 0.

It's well documented that the food the inmates at camps received was extremely basic. There was certainly little need to keep sending huge supplies of food into the camps, when it was needed much more in the German heartlands towards the latter part of the War.

As for the location of the camps, I think the majority were created in the East (Poland specifically) as it came under what was called the General Government. That is, it was earmarked to become part of the Reich after it had been germanized and the Polish / Jewish society had been eradicated. It therefore provided the ideal place to carry out the Final Solution. The fact that Poland (and East Europe generally) contained most of Europe's Jews, would also explain why the camps were built there.

The fact is that the Nazi's left the camps, destroying what they could, days before the Russians (and others) arrived. Anyone who could walk was forced out with them on death marches before the guards just disappeared. It's unsurprising then that there were swathes of camp inmates wandering the towns around the camps when the Russians arrived.

I think it's extremely hard to deny the Holocaust took place. The evidence that it did is overwhelming. The amount of eyewitness accounts and the well documented evidence of the Nazi hatred of the Jews.

Answer 2

Why don't you seek out a Holocaust survivor and do a BS sniff on him or her?

I understand Spielberg took some of his profits from Schindler's List and went out and interviewed all the remaining survivors to make sure he had an account before they passed on.

Why don't you contact his office and ask for a copy of the footage -- see if it moves you?

Alternatively, you could seek out a German source, ask them if it was real. Certainly, Germans would not have any incentive to make it up. They would only have an interest in the opposite -- a cover-up.

Of course, doubting the Holocaust is in the same category of conspiracy theory as the idea that aliens live among the population of Roswell New Mexico ever since they landed and did the body-snatcher thing. Rowdy Rody Piper has some special glasses that enables you to see them.

Answer 3

Yes there may be some truth to the holocaust, but it seems reasonable that other factors contributed to the starvation and mass incineration of prisoners. Surely there was a severe shortage of food and medicine in the last days of the war, and bodies could not be left to decompose because of the threat to the general health in the camp.
Any police detective can tell you that eye witnesses are not all that reliable.

Answer 4

There were plenty survivors that have been continually called upon to provide first hand accounts of what happened to them. It couldn't have been made up on the scale that it was happening anyhow. Prisoners actually witnessed the atrocities that have been documented. Also German military and party members provided their accounts which corroborated what the survivors and the evidence showed. There was documentation on the part of the camps which also point to what was happening, and it indeed was sick.

Answer 5

No one will ever really know the truth of all the Jews and Christians that were killed or tortured by the Germans. I had a friend that left Italy in 41, she sat and told me stories for hours of how her friends and neighbors dissapeared in the night, and no one ever saw them again. The germans came to her brothers houses and shot them and dragged them away. They would knock down her door and took anything of value from the house. Luckily her husband had friends in America and they came here. 6 million sounds like alot to me but it wasn't, according to her "JUST THE JEWS!

Answer 6

Unfortunately the Holocaust is a fact. I must say that I wish with all my heart that it wasn't, but it is telling at how low human's can go. It's a shame we haven't learned from it. Hitler spoke out saying exactly what he wanted to do. Nobody took him seriously. Think it can't happen again? It has, Rwanda, the Balkans, the Sudan. Now we have more people preaching extermination. Are we going to let it happen, yet again?

Answer 7

The truth is that the 3rd reich murdered over 11 million people, 6 million of them being Jews. Have you not seen the photos? have you not heard the stories? did you not pay attention when you were in school? Here's your sign!

Answer 8

Fact. I can only say to those who doubt, If there is any Karma in the world I wish you the same experiences the "fictional" camps had.

Answer 9

Yes William Wallace was a real, living person. The events of his life were not quite the melodrama protrayed in the movie Braveheart. But the man himself did exist.

Answer 10

That's true, but there have been hundreds, thousands, of eye-witness accounts of the holocaust. It was a calculated attempt to rid the world of Jews, after they had gotten every last ounce of work out of them.
