What does shoah mean?
Shoah means catastrophe, great calamity. It is used by some for the Holocaust, in particular those who feel that the word holocaust has misleading religious implications. (Holocaust is derived from a Greek word meaning whole offering, burnt sacrifice).
What is judeocide?
The word is hardly used. It means 'killing Jews' (on a large scale) and is occasionally used instead of Holocaust. The term judeocide is associated in particular with the work of Arno Mayer, a well known historian, who is keen to demystify the Holocaust and who has misgivings about Holocaust remembrance, which he regards as a cult.
