This isn't my opinion, just what I think the people are trying to say!
My understanding of it, is that most people who deny the holocaust, are not denying the fact that the people died, they are just arguing with the fact that the Jewish faith appears to have claimed the holocaust as its own - forgetting about the other victims - the homosexuals, the gypsies and the other groups that were put to death. It seems that they are arguing that the Jewish people are making out that their ancestors deaths are more tragic than the other.

First, my own point of view, so you know where I'm coming from:
I absolutely believe that the Holocaust happened, and that the Third Reich was an evil that had to be stopped for the sake of the whole world. My father fought in the Second World War, and was also in Berlin afterwards as part of the Allied forces.
Second, my answer:
As I understand it, neo-Nazis who say there was no Holocaust do not try to deny the existence of prison camps or that people were killed there.
What they do dispute are the purposes of those camps (they deny the existence of 'extermination' camps created solely for the sake of massacre on the largest scale possible.)
They also deny the numbers of killings, putting it in the tens or hundreds of thousands rather than the nine to 11 million which is the generally accepted estimate*. By doing this, they are effectively denying that the Nazis committed genocide, which is what the word Holocaust implies.

Hmm. The Jews were the only people to care enough that their own people had been murdered, and they named the murder of the Jews 'The Holocaust'. They didn't hijack it, they named it. Non Jews started to use the name 'The Holocaust' to include all those that had died. No one objected to that.
All the evidence is there. It happened. The nazis documented what they did. Their attempts to 'prove' it didn't happen have backfired, such as the tests done on the concrete at one camp; the levels of zyclon B were so high that the scientist who ran the tests said that proved they weren't just disinfecting clothes.
I've also heard people say that the missing Jews are in Russia. Then the Iron Cutain came down and they still haven't been found. Plus Russia was the scene of the biggest pogrom before The Holocaust; 100,000 were murdered in The Pale.
Plus its just plain insulting to suggest that men, women and babies ignored their relatives and just moved.

Just as in the same way that some people deny that men have landed on the moon, or the idiotic 9/11 conspiracy ''theories''. There are nutters and neo nazis like Mel Gibson everywhere who will continue to believe whatever they want, irrepsective of the overwhelming evidence. Don't let it bother you.The important thing is that it will never happen again, because now Israel is one of the most powerful military nations in the world, with more nukes that you can shake a stick at. Just a shame they don't stick one in Mel Gibson's fascist, ugly ,sh*t breathed gob.

The Holocaust happened okay. British military intelligence got into many of the Nazi death camps in the closing stages of WW2 and have positive proof of what the Nazis had done. In some camps the Nazis tried to destroy the evidence but as we all know, the Krauts keep meticulous records and many of these were found. The Yanks managed to capture the entire records for all of the SS in c1945 somewhere near Berlin I think. These records lead them to a number of big arrests of SS seniors who were hiding out.
The following information has never been put into the public domain as far as I know. So, here goes.
In 1957 I joined the British Army as a Boy Soldier aged 15. I had a troop sergeant, a WW2 veteran of the SAS. This sergeant told me that the regiment [SAS] was disbanded in late 1945 but reformed again in early 1946. He and a large number of SAS men were sent to Germany to hunt down Nazis in hiding. In one raid his troops managed to capture an SS Nazi sergeant who had been in charge of the gas ovens at Belsen concentration camp. This SS man was taken into nearby woods and shot to death - it took the SAS nearly six hours to kill this man. He had been responsible for thousands of murders including putting British agent Odette Churchill into the incinerator while she was still alive. This brave woman had managed to bite him hard on the right wrist and this is how he was identified by the SAS.
Hundreds of Nazis and former members of SS were rounded up and killed by the SAS.
Why did the British to this? REVENGE and also because they knew at the time that there were few if any witnesses to the atrocities these Nazis had committed.
Let it be known that Winston Churchill wanted all Nazis to be hanged without trial including Adolf Hitler if captured.
Instead we went through the charade of the Nuemberg trials an absolute farce during which many Nazis got off light.
The US Army hangman at Nuremberg a Black African American, made sure that most of these Nazis had their faces slit open with his knife as they were being hanged. There is no proof this happened but I promise you it did.
Anyone who says the Holocaust did not happen should be made to visit every surviving death camp in Europe meet with surviving victims of the Holocaust and go to Israel to pray at the Holocaust Memorial.

Silly people say it's all propaganda, but there is overwhelming evidence that it happened. There are pictures of hundreds of dead bodies at these camps and people will still say it's all made up, how can you possibly make photos like that up? I know that if you go to a concentration camp it is really eerie, it just has an air of death all around it. You won't even hear the birds singing. Millions of people were wiped out, can anybody explain where they went if the holocaust didn't happen?

The Jews did not suffer in Germany because there was no Holocaust. Actually it was the Jews that was torturing the poor blond haired deprived Germans. Those tattoos on the Jews arms and hands that are still alive today (by the grace of God) are really there because they want to be hip.
OTHER CONSPIRACIES TO THINK ABOUT:
1. We knew the Japanese were going to bomb Pearl Harbor before they did. I mean come-on President Roosevelt liked the thought of our boys baking inside the Battle Ship Arizona before they died. The President was looking for a better way to get a good nights sleep.
2. America did not land on the Moon. We payed billions of dollars for the 360 foot Saturn 5 rocket so we could look at it and say wow that is a big rocket. We kept approx. 400,000 technicians, scientists and construction contractors quiet, with zero leaks to the public. The rocks that we thought that came from moon and have proved to be from the moon are really from the Pacific Ocean.
3. The Mafia whacked JFK, via the Russian connection, via the Cuban connection.... The man on the grassy knoll was a CIA agent acting on orders from Giancana from Chicago and Marcello from New Orleans, with duplicity from Castro and Kruschev....true story.
4. Aliens landed in Roswell and we transported them to Area 51 to back engineer their technology, where do you think the stealth air craft came from? Again, we kept it secret by brain washing the thousands of workers who were in on the scam.
5. The Moon we see every night is really not there along with the planets, stars as well as the Planet Killing Asteroids. Those were put there by the evil United States to toy with our minds.
6. The fossils of homo eructus, neandertals and 15 other hominids that are extinct were put there by paleotologists, archeologists, and assorted rock hounds to enhance their careers. Creationism is the only reality.
7. America is a conspiracy and is a fake country and none of us Americans really live here.
8. I was never born so this response to your question is a fake.

What about the pictures of all the bodies, the gas chambers etc, all the documented experiments which the Nazis carried out on people, the presence of all the camps, with the gas chambers, the remains of the people from the gas chambers must surely be around somewhere

The biggest advocate of the "No Holocaust" tripe is the current President of Iran, a known and publicly verbal hater of Israel and the Jewish people. He had announced his own goal of destroying the State of Israel. In an attempt to garner support and inflame Muslim jihadistas he has embraced the "No Holocaust" position. Truth doesn't matter to him - only his blinding hatred of Israel, much like Hitler and his bunch.

Hey Clive, Odette Churchill survived the war and went on to testify against members of the SS.
