		Silent Holocaust or silent holocaust is a phrase that is used to refer to several unrelated events.
		The Holocaust, from which my mother and my father barely escaped and in which many of their relatives perished, was the systematic genocide and mass murder of millions of people, solely because of their ethnic and religious identity.
		The so-called "silent holocaust" is the freely chosen exercise by human beings of the right to choose a spouse and live a happy and satisfying life with him or her, a right specifically guaranteed by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to which the State of Israel is one of the first signatories.

		Silent genocide has the same purpose, to destroy a people or their culture so they no longer exist as a people, but it acts covertly instead of overtly.
		Silent genocide is pervasive and acts in many ways with the ultimate goal being to cause people to become ashamed of their cultures so that they will cease to admit, even to themselves, that they are something other than one of the majority.
		In conclusion, silent genocide is the destruction of a people by destroying pride and knowledge in their cultural heritage.

	Battle for the Holocaust
		Hitler’s Holocaust against the Jews was, in a sense, a war within a war.
		After the war, the nations of the world, recoiling from the horrors of the Holocaust, came together and affirmed the inherent worth of all human life – the antithesis of the Nazi creed.
		In the German settlement, for example, around $325 million was dedicated to Holocaust education and remembrance – apparently at the insistence of the German parties to the agreement.

	THHP Question: Response of the Catholic Church
		The difficulty with Pius's inadvertence to the Holocaust lies in the fact that Catholics in high and low stations kept reminding him of it.
		While the Vatican showed keen interest in getting the perpetrators of the Holocaust freed, and, as we have seen, had to be restrained by its trusted envoy Bishop Muench, it showed little or no interest in the question of restitution for survivors of the Holocaust.
		If the Holocaust was not sufficient cause for Pius to break with Germany during the war, it is not surprising that antisemitism, restitution, and strict justice for war criminals would not be his priorities during the Cold War.

		Scan the headlines and you can’t miss it: a new Holocaust museum recently opened in Hungary; the groundbreaking for a Holocaust museum in Skopje, Macedonia is scheduled to begin soon.
		This “silent Holocaust” is made worse by the fact that it alienates the younger generation from exactly those whom it is supposed to remember.
		A Holocaust museum can be an important memorial to the fallen, but in a generation facing the existential threats of Jewish ignorance and assimilation, we have to ask ourselves where we can most effectively direct our energy.

		Drawing a distinction between "the Nazi holocaust" as a historical event and "The Holocaust," which is the ideological presentation thereof, he points out that the holocaust has been turned into something without parallel in human history, that "its uniqueness is held to be absolutely decisive" and, hence, it "cannot be rationally apprehended."
		"Holocaust denial" becomes not simply "denying the Holocaust" altogether as some revisionist historians do, but, as the French intellectual Roger Garaudy, who was recently prosecuted for just this, learned, a blanket term to cover any number of responses or rational approaches to the historical Nazi holocaust.
		Secondly, the Holocaust industry is denying another essential aspect of the Nazi genocide, Finkelstein argues, by claiming that so many survived because it is -- in effect -- denying that Jews were systematically killed.

	Silent Holocaust - Definition, explanation
		The word silent implies that it is not meant to be a comparison in terms of the murders that took place during the original European Holocaust, but rather, it is meant to evoke a state of shock that millions of Jews are abandoning Judaism and their fellow Jews albeit of their own free will.
		Assimilation [1] is the leading cause for the shrinkage of almost all Jewish populations in Western countries since World War II, and it has been called the Silent Holocaust [1] by communal leaders such as Rabbi Ephraim Buchwald of the National Jewish Outreach Program, perhaps the best-known popularizer of the phrase.
		Orthodox Rabbis also refer to abortion as the "Silent Holocaust" [1], and to conversion to Christianity as the "Silent Holocaust" [1].

		Holocaust means sacrifice, God, purpose." And Michael Berenbaum writing with the authority of the US Holocaust Museum claims: "The Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible, translates the Hebrew word olah as holokauston.
		In French, there is significant use of "holocauste" in the sense of an abhorrent immolation to honor or required by a pagan god and/or of a destruction inspired by stupidity or hate, a use encountered in writings of native English speakers fairly frequently before 1900 but rarely in the twentieth century.
		The employment of "holocaust" with non-Nazi referents by those who have some investment in guarding and perpetuating the memory of the Jewish slaughter of the Hitler period is germane to the concerns of this essay, as is the disapproval that sometimes followed such employment.

		Novick is interested in the "lesson" that ordinary people are capable of extraordinary evil, but he argues that the Holocaust is not as relevant a case of this as the work psychologist Stanley Milgram did at Yale in the mid-sixties.
