a completely unsourced rant, from the same people that peddled the ‘Iraq has WMD’s’ bullshit.
Some names have been changed.
Was Adrien Zenz one of them?
I mean we have a clear historical example, where 6 million Jewish people were exterminated from 1941 to 1945.
The first thing that really convinced me that the broader genocide claims were very suspect was an NPR article that cited a 5x increase in the rate of sterilisations (and the usual Zenz quotes). Except the nominal figures were referred as well, and it was an increase from 50 people per year to 250 per year in a region with millions of people.
While I agree with you, it’s important to remember that most of the death camps were outside of Germany. Hitler set up the most extreme camps in states that the Nazis had already toppled because open genocide tends to lead to civil unrest.
Basically, I’m saying that without the chaos of an all-out world war, I don’t think the holocaust can be used as a standard measurement of how long that process might take.
