hakenkreuz "hooked cross" = swastica.

when people say "bent cross" they are just misinformed and probably mean "hooked cross", most likely.

What political party organised the Holocaust?

The Nazi Party. From 1919 to 1920 there was a party called "German Workers' Party", which was founded on far-right and nationalist tendencies then common throughout Europe, in part as a result of the Great War of 14-18. In 1920, the party evolved into the National Socialist German Workers' Party, commonly known as the Nazi Party, which was dissolved in 1945. It was that party which was responsible for organizing the Holocaust. Wikipedia has a great page on the NSDAP.
