are still saying it never happened..........

Shame on many, for letting them get away with it........

I have to believe that many of them also never think about the EVEN bigger Genocide THEIR immigrant relatives committed here in America, by killing off tens of millions of Native Americans..........

I wish the Native Americans had had a BORDER PATROL......

"A group of slave owners who wanted to be free (Confederates) So they killed a lot of white English people (Civil War), in order to continue owning their black African people, so they could wipe out of the rest of the red Indian people (Native Americans), so they could move west and steal the rest of the land from the brown Mexican people (Mexican American war), giving them a place to take off and drop their nuclear weapons on the yellow Japanese people."

I esp love the little excerpt at the bottom by Orwell............

The RepubliCONs are working overtime by constantly telling and re-telling lies, to re-write history. Their FUBAR leader can't even say a single thing without it being a lie....... I worry about the National Archives experiencing a mysterious flood, or maybe a fire of unknown origin........

Goebells or some henchman of Hitler's once said......"You keep telling the same lie over and over again, and soon it becomes known as the Truth..........

Have you ever noticed that these clueless followers of the lie machine will look at the moon, the planets,
and other celestial bodies and say they are round. Then turn around and say the that earth is flat! Uff..

It is sad, but I am not surprised. The Holocaust, and The Shoah, in particular, didn't begin nor end with Auschwitz. That seems to be lost on many.
