Oh yeah, there is a huge movement of holocaust deniers. They write books about it and HBO did a special about it years ago. Iran just hosted a conference on it. You know the odd thing is that Eisenhower knew when he saw the camps that people would never believe it and he made sure that American journalists captured it on film (video and still) and Germans came to see the corpses. German men that lived near the camps and had to know what was happening had to bury the bodies.
The Nazi's were amazing record keepers and kept records of it. Those records were entered into the history books at the Nuremburg trials and not one Nazi said it didn't happen yet here we are 60 years later and people are saying it never happened. Some go so far as to say it is a Jewish conspiracy (I have no idea what they think we did with those 6 million people but logica is not their strong suit).
Here is a site that gives some info. David Irving is the worst of the worst. OMG

In order to believe that there was no Holocaust, people need to be really really ignorant and antisemitic enough to believe that the Jews could have really made it up.
I'm sure that people who make the Holocaust denial propaganda are intelligent enough to know that it really happened, but they deliberately lie in order to incite hatred against Jews, and Holocaust denial is not the only type of antisemitic propaganda that they make.
I've heard some of their "arguments" and they are totally ridiculous, but unfortunately there are people who are ignorant enough to believe them. For example, Holocaust deniers say that there had never been so many Jews in Europe, that it was physically impossible to kill and cremate so many people and that they had "calculated" that, etc.
At the same time they use old antisemitic stereotypes of Jews being deceitful and greedy and so simply call the survivors liars who just want to make money, which is really disgusting.
They also use the old idea of antisemitic conspiracy theories to ascribe Jews almost supernatural powers to secretly control others.

I am Jewish and I do have one problem with people talking about the Holocaust.
The term is used to describe the fate of 6 million Jews. But in speaking of that, people often seem to forget that 5 million other people were also killed in the camps.
I would like to see a word for all 11 million who were killed. To remind us the evil which first went after the Jews grew and spread until it included many other people who were just as innocent.

Because they live in lies, anti-facts, and maybe they dont know how to read hahahha...
Its another propaganda to hide the cruel history of holocaust from the young generations because of the facts that Hitler is a dedicated Christians - Did what is told in Bible.
The most funny emel i ever received was from fellow US Christians who said Middle East / Muslims wants to destroy the history of Holocaust because Muslims wants to erase the facts that they involves in Holocaust!!
Thats totally a bullshit. They want to change the history of Holocaust as if Muslims was the one who did it!!!
Funny!

People believe there was no holocaust? That's ridiculous. They know there was a holocaust, they're just denying it.

WTF??????????????? this is news to me! Who doesn't believe in the holocaust? thats like not believing in snow, or Canada... lol I had the great pleasure of learning much wisdom from a German woman who escaped Nazi Germany and from her I got to hear what the common people, the farmers and rural people went through at the hands of their own people. Such terrible tragedy and such horror we must not forget we need to learn from it so we dont ever repeat such mistakes.
