  The Holocaust - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Early elements of the Holocaust include the Kristallnacht pogrom of the 8th and 9th November 1938 and the T-4 Euthanasia Program, leading to the later use of killing squads and extermination camps in a massive and centrally organized effort to exterminate every possible member of the populations targeted by Adolf Hitler and the Nazis.
Homosexuals were also targets of the Holocaust, as homosexuality was deemed incompatible with Nazism because of their failure to reproduce the "master race." This was combined with the belief among the Nazis that homosexuality could be contagious.
The largest instance of organized Jewish resistance was the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, from April to May of 1943, as the final deportation from the Ghetto to the death camps was about to commence, the ZOB and ZZW fighters rose up against the Nazis.

 The Holocaust Industry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Holocaust Industry: Reflections on the Exploitation of Jewish Suffering is a book by Norman G. Finkelstein which argues that an "industry" has exploited the memory of the Holocaust to further Jewish and Israeli interests, and has corrupted the Jewish culture and Jewish heritage of Judaism as well as the history of the Holocaust.
That numerous fraudsters are falsely claiming to be survivors of the Nazi Holocaust.
It is filled with precisely the kind of shrill hyperbole that Finkelstein rightly deplores in much of the current media hype over the Holocaust; it is brimming with the same indifference to historical facts, inner contradictions, strident politics and dubious contextualizations; and it oozes with the same smug sense of moral and intellectual superiority.

 Gendercide Watch: The Jewish Holocaust
The gendercidal dimension of the holocaust against the Jews was evident during particular phases of the campaign of extermination.
The point is critical in a more general way to modern scholarship on the Jewish holocaust, since this currently centres on key decision-points in the killing campaign on the eastern front, and the debate over precisely when the Nazi actions passed from the atrocious to the outright genocidal (see Rosenbaum, Explaining Hitler).
As with the Armenian case, the Jewish holocaust was launched with an initial genocidal outburst that targeted overwhelmingly males -- partly as a means of acclimatizing the genocidal agents to their tasks.

 Holocaust Denial
This is precisely the intent of the Holocaust deniers: by attacking the facts of the Holocaust, and by framing this attack as merely an unorthodox point of view, their propaganda insinuates subtle but hateful anti-Semitic beliefs of Jews as exploiters of non-Jewish guilt and Jews as controllers of academia or the media.
Holocaust denial is a propaganda movement active in the United States, Canada and Western Europe which seeks to deny the reality of the Nazi regime's systematic mass murder of 6 million Jews in Europe during World War II.
For Holocaust deniers, this change appeared to confirm arguments that historical estimates of Holocaust deaths had been deliberately exaggerated, and that scholars were beginning to "retreat" in the face of "revisionist" assertions.

 More Comments on the Jewish Holocaust   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-22)
The Jewish Holocaust, in Rabbi Fischer's opinion, was the most notable expression of the "atavistic Jew-hatred" that has always pervaded Europe, forming part of the oxygen that Europeans breathe, which they now inhale along with the ashes still circulating from the nazi crematoria.
Hence the rules of Holocaust correctness, invoked by Michel Friedman, which have been contrived to protect the Holocaust from all competing holocausts: The Jewish Holocaust is so radically unique that any comparison of it to other events amounts to anti-Semitism and relativizing Holocaust denial.
To recognize that the Holocaust is an instrument of Jewish power, we need only observe how it is deployed; to recognize that it is a contrived instrument, we need only analyze how the racially self-interested ideas embedded in it, like the doctrine of categorical uniqueness, serve to protect and enhance its effectiveness.

 Overlooked Millions: Non-Jewish Victims of the Holocaust   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-22)
