Actually, Tacitus never said that. Neither did Voltaire, to whom this statement is wrongly attributed to.
Who actually said it?
Kevin Alfred Strom - A Neo-Nazi who was eventually arrested for distribution of kiddie porn.
No, guy, there's only so much time one can waste talking to conspiracy loons, before you move on to outright mockery.
There used to be a poster here who insisted that the Sandy Hook Massacre was a false flag operation, and that all the parents of the dead children were "Crisis Actors".
He continued to insist on this, even after the people who had instigated the conspiracy theory admitted they were making it up.
He insisted it was still true after the gun manufacturer paid out $73 million to the families.
The Holocaust is a documented historical fact.
Why would he "notice" that? He was in the war from Normandy to VE Day, and he saw nothing but bombed-out buildings. Amazing, all those other places that were bombed didn't have piles of dead bodies. They didn't have ovens for disposing of the bodies. They didn't have survivors who told him, "Uh, yeah, really bad stuff happened here."
And before you go on about "real Germans", my dad was born in Germany and spoke fluent German. He was the unit's translator.
For those interested in the real history...
Nordhausen was liberated by the 104th US Infantry Division on April 12th, 1945. When the first American GI's arrived in the camp, they discovered a gruesome scene. More than 3,000 corpses were scattered, helter-skelter on the grounds. In several hangars there were no survivors and in others they found only 2 or 3 living inmates lying amongst dozen of corpses. The situation was so calamitous that the medic unit of the 104th Infantry Division had to request urgent medical reinforcments and supplies. More that 400 German civilians living in the direct vicinity of the camp were forced by the GI's to evacuate the corpses. The medic units of the 104th Division did the best they could to save as many prisoners as possible but even with the excellent care they received, numerous inmates died in the hours and days following the liberation of the camps.
Re:
Why would he "notice" that?
What a dumb question.
It's about as dumb as concluding that someone with a bullet hole in his head died of Leprosy.
Even the dimmest of wits who was aware that the residential buildings and hospitals in Nordhausen were bombed by the British would conclude that the bodies pulled from the ruined structures were not victims of "homicidal gas chambers" or firing squads.
You're not getting any "real history" from another mouthpiece of the fraudulent Holocaust Industry that has so hopelessly brainwashed you.
Your convenient evasion of my challenge for you to produce a photo, blueprint, work order or maintenance request for
just one homicidal gas chamber reveals your blind gullibility to complete rubbish.
If "millions" were killed in homicidal gas chambers, there should be hundreds of them around Germany, Poland etc and countless photos, blueprints etc.
Where are they all?
Why can't you find just one?
Hint: They, like the mythical homicidal steam, electrocution and "vaporizing" chambers are just more Holocaust Industry / Hollywood / O.W.I. propaganda (1)
Other facts that "daddy" didn't tell you that prove the standard Holocaust narrative to be grossly exaggerated:
1. Many High Ranking members of Germany's National Socialist Party (aka "Nazis") were full or partial Jews. (3)
2. Of the approximately 150,000 Jews who served in Hitler's WW 2 military, many rose to the highest ranks and received Germany's highest awards with the full knowledge and support of Hitler and the German High Command. (4)
3. There are no written orders for the mass murder of anyone from Hitler that exist anywhere. (5) There are written orders from Eisenhower, Stalin and Churchill for mass murder but none from Hitler?
4. "Jewish scholar Arno Mayer, a professor of history at Princeton University, acknowledges in his 1988 book about the “final solution” that more Jews perished at Auschwitz as a result of typhus and other “natural” causes than were executed." (6)
In addition to thousands of Holocaust survivors who deny the existence of homicidal gas chambers and an industrialized extermination program (7) there is far more evidence that the standard Holocaust narrative is simply fraudulent but very profitable anti German propaganda driven by an insatiably greedy and dishonest international, multi $ Billion dollar Holocaust Industry and a complicit Hollywood that continues to saturate the minds of poorly educated and gullible individuals with profitable lies as it has since the days of WW 2.
Even though I am about the only individual in this forum who can provide independent sources debunking ubiquitous and fraudulent Holocaust Industry propaganda, I realize the futility of enlightening any gullible person lacking an ounce of Critical Literacy who remains a victim saturated by decades of relentless Hollywood / Holocaust Industry lies plus profitable and bigoted anti German propaganda.
Finally, I'd be embarrassed to show that my only sources were the confused musings of one anonymous individual (i.e. "dad") and recitations of stale, bigoted and thoroughly debunked Hollywood / Holocaust Industry propaganda (i.e. "jewishgen.org").
So, as I wrote earlier, if "millions" were killed in homicidal gas chambers then hundreds of them must have existed throughout Poland, Germany etc.
Therefore, you should have no trouble finding just one photograph, blueprint, work order or maintenance request of just one German made homicidal gas chamber; not widespread delousing chambers as were used by numerous governments.
Where are all those German made, Holocaust era homicidal gas chambers or have you been duped again?

EXCERPT:
“Allied Propaganda
"The Auschwitz gassing story is based in large part on the hearsay statements of former Jewish inmates who did not personally see any actual signs of extermination. Their beliefs are understandable, because rumors about gassings at Auschwitz were widespread. Allied planes dropped large numbers of leaflets, written in Polish and German, on Auschwitz and the surrounding areas which claimed that people were being gassed in the camp.
The Auschwitz gassing story, which was an important part of the Allied wartime propaganda effort, was also broadcast to Europe by Allied radio stations. [15] CONTINUED

She was interned in Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1942 for having sexual relations with a Polish forced laborer. On the train journey to the camp, a Gypsy woman told her and the others that they would all be gassed at Auschwitz. Upon arrival, Maria and the other women were ordered to undress and go into a large concrete room without windows to take a shower. The terrified women were sure that they were about to die.
But then, instead of gas, water came out of the shower heads." CONTINUED
