I frequent
this site, care to post a link to those "meticulous records of everything" that is, if you know? If you dont know you could just post another dodge
Nazi records are not ON LINE
for information of the death records kept by your fellow nazis----simply GOOGLE "NAZI DEATH CAMP RECORDS"
i have a question, and i am neither affirming or denying anything but something doesn't make sense.
the knesset mandated, when they approved yad vashem holocaust museum in 1953, that one of their most prime duties was to document and record every single victim of the holocaust, and yad vashem has some 4,000,000 names (and in all honesty, some are duplicates, which they should clean up, but i do not imagine that really make a significant effect on the total.) that really doesn't sit well with the "nazis kept meticulous records" claim.
i think i should be able to ask the question as to how this 6,000,000 figure was arrived at, thwe methodology used, but whenever i do, all i get it is a slew of insults and name calling, and that would make anyone suspicious.
personally, i don't think it would be any less of a tragedy if the number was 4,000,000 instead of 6,000,000, or any greater tragedy if the figure was 8,000,000. i do think more harm is done to the memory of those who died by insisying that people believe the 6,000,000 without question. i mysel would never have thought of questioning it until i heard their were laws against doing so and the reaction i received for even questioning the methodology of one study.
i think though, now that this 6,000,000 figure is constantly being thrown out there and defended so vehemently, that any figure less than that plays right into the hands of the so called "holocaust deniers".
also, that is really a sad remembrance for the victims, to turn their tragedy into some sort of trivia game of numbers. what a sad, sad way to remember these people, their horrible individual tragedies repeated millions of times in death camps. to the NAZIs they were just numbers in life, and now, they are just numbers in death too. there is just something very wrong about that.
"millions" is just a statistic.
one was too many; and one was the greatest tragedy.
