Should there be a Polocaust Museum?
Polish minister backs call for 'Polocaust' museum
https://edition.cnn.com/2018/02/21/europe/poland-m...
I am aware six million Jews died in the holocaust, but I was less aware until relatively recently that approximately three million non Jewish Poles also lost their lives in the Polocaust. In fact, the fact I had been unaware was largely due to the fact that no-one ever told me this and it is not really very well publicised, and that made me a little angry.
Should more awareness be raised regarding this event? Or was it only three million? Or should the past just remain in the past?

There's a Holocaust museum in the US. It starts as an idea.

Tina is correct. The Jewish Holocaust is the best DOCUMENTED case of genocide in human history. In part this is thanks to German tendency to record and document every little thing. Also, the GERMAN eyewitnesses such as the guards NEVER questioned that the Holocaust happened. Now they will contest their specific role and guilt, but they don’t deny the event happened.
And yes the prewar and post war census do demonstrate that some 66% or so Jews just “disappeared” during the war.
And yes, other people were killed by the Germans. Yes, a lot of Poles died too. Along with Gypsies, and Soviet POWs. But the Jewish European population was the only one that was targeted with the explicit goal of extermination.

Anonymous no it is not a lie. There were c.9 million Jews in Europe before WW2 and c.3 million afterwards.
And no, there is plenty of evidence of gas chambers. You just haven't looked at it.
Try Professor Deborah Lipstadt's book "Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory."
It's quite short and easy to read.

First of all it's a lie 6 million Jews perished, and there's zero evidence of gas chambers.
