Aeschylus (525 BC - 456 BC)Greek tragic dramatistIn war, truth is the first casualtysource: quotationspage com
The truth must be told and it must be known. Considering how immensely tragic the Holocaust was, the least we can do is to speak the truth about it and remember it, so that we can learn something from it and avoid having something like that happen again. Those who have first-hand knowledge must share their knowledge while they still can. The Holocaust ended in 1945, which is now 64 years ago, so there are relatively few witnesses left.
Many people say the Holocaust isn't real because you cant gas 6 million people but the truth is only about 2 million-3 million were the rest were shot by the einzatsgruppen in large bit sometime 30 thousand at a time, around two million died from this and the rest from starvation or disease.
In War the first casualty is- Truth! both sides of any major conflict aim for morale reasons, to show the enemy in the worst possible light. There are many unanswered questions about the Holocaust. even the promoters tend to avoid anything resembling a Veterans memorial tablet- albeit this is different than normal war death rolls. It seems very hard to swallow that about 6.7 Million Jews alone were killed by the Holocaust- there is very rarely any attempt to break this down statistically among the various prison camps. One might hasten to add there are too many survivors- and their stories conflict- Both sides have their stories- Certainly it happened- and on a Gross Scale- But- we cannot ignore factual distortions.
The Holocaust began in the 1930s when Hitler started controlling and discriminating against Jews, Romanies and several other ethnic groups. It intensified after the outbreak of the war in 1939. It was stopped in 1945 when the Allies moved through Germany and Poland at the end of World War II. _____________________________ It is generally accepted that the Holocaust was the intentional destruction (extermination) of Europe's Jews. This did not start until 1941. But yes, the Holocaust did happen during World War Two.
