Look, if you're going to debate the reality of the Holocaust, you might as well debate the reality of everything from The Revolutionary War to Tickle-Me Elmo.

And some people do.

idiot. evil. that's all there is to it.

if the Holocaust never happened, i'd like this guy to explain the numbers tatooed on my grandparents' arms, and the mysterious disappearance of their entire families between 1939 and 1945.

Child's play..

Read Night by Elie Wiesel

Makes Diary seem almost funny.

Of course, those books do not equal proof that it happened.

I didn't see it, so I can't say for sure it did, but years of history class say it did, and I'm not going to argue.

I think this guy is a few bricks short of a wall.

Well, technically it could've been fabricated (it wasn't, as far as I know, but still)...but there's still more proof. Anyone who claims the Holocaust never happened is just a plain old anti-Semite, or an idiot. Or both.

It'd have to be a pretty big group effort of sticking to the lie for the holocaust to actually be just made up.

I put holocaust deniers in the same category as those who claim 9/11 is an inside job. It's actually rather similar. Holocaust deniers claim Jews made it up to advance Jewish interests at the expense of everyone else. 9/11 Deniers claim the U.S. government murdered its own people to justify a religious war against Islamic countries.

The fact of the matter is ... there is overwhelming evidence of the holocaust happening. The corpses of people, the countless images, the records ... the accounts of soldiers on both sides, and civilians.

The American Historical Association calls any form of holocaust denial 'academic fraud.' I'm inclined to agree.

Agreed.

It's like stating World War II didn't happen.

There are films of the camps after all, not to mention, this would then ask the question of what happend to the lives of 10 million people from 1933 to 1945.

Well, considering the massive economic turn-around the US experienced during and after WWII, the depression is far easier to deny. However, having seen a couple concentration camps myself, along with having met a Holocaust survivor in a Burger King (on an American military base in Germany), it boggles the mind to think that anyone could think it never happened. It's like Michael Moore saying "there is no terrorist threat".
