Assuming this is Dorian posting, what do you fellas think of this?

Here's what I think:
He is entitled to his beliefs considering there is much conflicting evidence and stories on the Holocaust. YES, there is NO DOUBT that Jews were mistreated in National Socialist dominated Europe. There's NO DOUBT there were pogroms and lynching of Jews by the Germans' Polish, Latvian, Lithuanian, Croatian, Serbian, and Ukrainian helpers. I mean SEVERE mistreatment. Jews in the Soviet Army were singled out, rounded up and shot, and not treated like Russia, Polish and English POW's.
However, it is highly unlikely that that the Germans created ANY death camps. These were internment camps in which Jews, communists (many Jews were communist), criminals, a few token Blacks from the Rhineland, homosexuals, hostile Poles, impressed laborers, and any others deemed hostile to German society were interned. Was it fun? Hells no! But they weren't set up to exterminate people. The real death camps intended to murder people by starvation and over work and torture were in the Soviet Union, such as those in Ostoshkov, Kozelsk, Starobelsk, and Siberia.
Those dead bodies you see ARE real--very real! However, people were not starved to death intentionally and the reason they were starved is because the ALLIES (you know, we Americans), bombed rail lines which made sufficient food delivery into Germany, let alone concentration camps, impossible.
And let us look at both sides of the coin. Yes, the Nazis DID mistreat Jews. But there were Jewish communists who murdered millions of people. Example: Lazar Kaganovic (Ukrainian Jew), Butcher of Ukraine, ordered the man made famine in which seven million Ukrainians starved to death. Example: Genrich Yagoda (Palestinian Russian Jew), supervised the death camps of the Soviet Union.
I can go on and on about the different aspects of the Holocaust and WWII history. There are so many things undiscussed or unrevealed to the mass public that it is only natural that Dorian or anyone else would start disbelieving much of what is said or look at it in a different light.
Our own government lied to us about the Katyn Forest Massacre, in which communists (many of them Jewish) murdered 25,000 Poles, by telling us it was the Germans who committed this atrocity, when in fact it was the Germans who exposed it to the Poles and showed them who committed it: the Reds. Now this fact is accepted by people everywhere after we were lied to for decades about it!
People have the right to look at history as they please, especially WWII.
