yes it did.

And you should probably not believe most of the "stories" you hear on the internet. Best thing to do is read actual books by unbiased sources (by that I mean authors who are not extremists, KKK, etc...). Just go onto amazon and do a search.

Or even just read about it in an encyclopedia (a REAL encyclopedia not wikipedia). Holocaust is a fact. There is no denying that.

Oh and by the way, one good indication of the existence of the holocaust is that even Germans themselves admit it and accept it as a dark part of their past (As of now, holocaust denial is a CRIME in Germany). During WWII, the existence and nature of the Holocaust was well-documented by the German government itself, and was further witnessed by the Allied forces who entered Germany in the later years of the war.

Sadly, it seems you actually are asking this question for real. Many deniers say that the Holocause didn't happen because it was not just the Jews or it was not a systematic (government planned) attempt to wipe out the race.

But that aside it still happened. There is more evidence of this moment in history than probably any other event as the Nazi's kept great records and even films (I will use Nazi as although many Germans turned a somewhat blind eye to what happened we cannot point a finger at an entire race for this).

But to debate the two counter points. 1. The Jews were not the only ones. No they were not. Many undesirables were rounded up and killed as well. But just because you are committing multiple genocides (slavs, gypsies, etc) and slaughtering people who are sick or mentally deficient does not mean you didn't commit genocide. - to break it down to an almost insulting level.. just because you ate a whole pizza doesn't mean you didn't eat a slice of pizza
2. The second was the idea that it was not a planned attempt to kill these people. This too has far too much evidence to the contrary. The fact that the camps had factory like killing and disposal systems show that there was a planned set up for destruction of the people in these camps. There is a great deal of written evidence from the Nazi's that they took steps to ghettoize the Jewish populations and take them out of German territory and kill them. There are written plans in Hitler's own writing.
It is a hard thing to argue against and I can't understand how people can say it did not happen. There are likely other arguments saying it didn't happen, but again, I cannot understand how these arguments can hold any credence to anyone using even basic logic and I have to admit I would love to speak with someone who shares these ideas so that I can understand their logic.
But even if someone says conspiracy it can still not hold up. This would have to be the largest conspiracy to ever affect the planet. The ones that the other person suggested would seem easier by comparison (well except the American one...)

It did not ensue. Sharon S, you're a LIAR, you probably did not scent something. The JEWS declared conflict on Germany on March twenty fourth, 1933; all Hitler did grew to become into salary the conflict the JEWS asked for, and that they lost. Nazi Germany did not kill six million jews, the worldwide pink bypass placed the demise count style at each and all the concentration camps mixed at a sprint over 271000 in the time of the finished conflict! maximum of those in the direction of the tip as Germany ought to not feed them, many died from starvation and affliction, yet Germany nevertheless allowed help to be despatched to the camps by employing the IRC. the U. S. killed extra harmless civilians than Germany did with 2 atomic blasts on Japan in below a week! international Jewry on the time grew to become into purely 14 million, the thought Hitler could have killed virtually a million/2 of each and all the jews in the international is ludicrous. additionally, NO information exists to help those outlandish claims. the place are the alleged six million bodies? that is alot of bodies, displacing alot of mass that no-one seems to have the potential to stumble on. Eyewitness testimony from Holohoax survivors differs between jews and different political prisoners, with the jewish "memories" being the main outlandish and terrible, and the main merely shown to be fake. Google "holocaust denial", and get the actuality. Why do they perpetuate the lie? capability and money. The jews have a asserting: "there is not any company like Shoah company", Shoah being the jewish observe for holocaust. Perpetuating the lie garners sympathy and money, maximum fairly in the form of "Holocaust" reparations, of which few "survivors", if any, get carry of. do not have confidence the tripe the jew-controlled government run faculties prepare you. think of for your self, and question. undergo in strategies, history is written by employing the victors.

You may also hear someone saying that 1+1=3, but it is not so!!!

Established scientific truth can be questioned ONLY by fools or those whose intentions are not sincere or rather evil.

We shall not go the Antarctic (at least I shall not) to prove its existence. I am happy somebody else has already done it!

The question is not did Holocaust really happen or not BUT WHAT WE HAVE LEARNED FROM THAT HISTORICAL TRUTH?

Why don't we apply THE SAME RULES AND CRITERIA TODAY, when judging thing and events, why don't we try our very best not to let similar thing happen ever again?

IT DID HAPPEN, the Holocaust, and let's pray God it never happen again ever!!!

But why do we forget or even worse ignore millions of Armenians slaughtered by Turks, millions of Serbs murdered by Ustashis and Nazis, millions of Greeks expelled from Asia Minor, and..........why not thousands of Iraquis killed after "Democracy" has been so successfully implemented in their country, or Darfur???

These questions deserve an answer, so please move your focus to more reallistic issues.

If after reading all of these responses you still have doubts: plan on taking a trip to the Holocaust Museum in Washington DC. Maybe not now (I have no idea where you might live) but at some future date. Plan on at least four hours.

You got to be kidding. Go visit your local library, visit a Holocaust museum, check out the Internet. Plenty of pictures to see. What is not to believe? Unfortunately it happened.

Of course it happened. There's no debate. People need to understand that any idiot can design a website and put all the crap he wants to on there. It in no way makes it accurate. Even wikipedia is not always accurate. It's amazing how seriously people take the internet.

Yes, it did happen. There's enough historical proof that it really did happen. I also know that dickweeds like Fred Leuchter and other no-brainers want to deny it but people who deny that the holocaust really happened are even worse than Adolf Hitler.

I've actually been to a Jewish prison camp in Germany. I have seen execution chambers, graves of the holocaust victims and I even have talked with holocaust surviviors. YES.

Yes! Yes! Yes! The Holocasut did happen, and I don't even want to think of the number of people who died because of that - the Jews, the Homosexuals, the Gypsies, the mentally retarded. They were all victims of Adolf Hitler.
