the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - Examination of Holocaust denial - Methods used by Holocaust deniers

Much of the controversy surrounding the claims of deniers centres upon the methods used to present arguments that the Holocaust allegedly never happened. Numerous accounts have been given (including evidence presented in court cases) of claimed "facts" and "evidence"; however, independent research has shown these claims to be based upon flawed research, biased statements, and even deliberately falsified evidence. In fact, Holocaust denial rhetoric is specific compared to other forms of revisionism only insofar as it concentrates itself on a ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - Phases of the Holocaust - Concentration

After the Jews were segregated by definition from the rest of the people, and their economic ties with the rest of the society were mostly cut or restricted, the Jews were physically separated from the rest of the society. Either by forcing them to move to special houses or to ghettos, Jews had to live in often desperate conditions. By concentrating the Jews into ghettos, concentration camps or forced-labor camps, the Jews were completely cut off from the rest of society, completely under the control of the Nazis. The Nazis controlled the amount of food that en ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - Silent Holocaust - Usage by Orthodox rabbis

Many Orthodox Judaism rabbis refer to assimilation as a type of "Holocaust". Orthodox Rabbis also refer to abortion as the "Silent Holocaust" [9], and to conversion to Christianity as the "Silent Holocaust" [10]. Intermarriage, assimilation, apostasy (e.g. converting to Messianic Judaism or Buddhism), and abortions of Jewish babies are all described in terms of a "silent holocaust". "The Conservative Jewish approach actively promotes endogamy, the marriage of Jews with Jews, through youth and young adult programs, outreach to t ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - Holocaust theology - Jewish theological responses

Here are some of the major responses that Jews have had in response to the Holocaust: No new response is needed. The Holocaust is like all other horrific tragedies. This event merely prompts us again to investigate the issue of why bad things sometimes happen to good people. The Holocaust shouldn't change our theology. Rabbinic Judaism has a doctrine from the books of the prophets called mi-penei hataeinu, "because of our sins we were punished". During Biblical times when calamities befell the Jewish people, the ...

Some of the more famous works are by Holocaust survivors or victims, such as Elie Wiesel, Primo Levi, and Anne Frank, but there is a substantial body of literature and art in many languages. The Holocaust has been a common subject in American literature, with authors ranging from Sylvia Plath to Saul Bellow addressing it in their works. Key works in other languages include Ukrainian Anatoly Kuznetsov's novel about the Babi Yar massacre. ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - Holocaust theology - Christian view

The Catholic Church has some of the Holocaust victims as declared saints and martyrs. An example is the priest Maximilian Kolbe. Open Theism holds that the holocaust was the result of too little faith in God, rather than too much; and that it is non-sequitur to blame God for humanity's steadfast refusal to obey God's command to "Love our neighbors as ourselves." Others, such as a small segment within evangelical Christianity, explain the Holocaust as part of the curse of Deuteronomy 28:15-68. That passage says that if th ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - Holocaust comics - Character biography

Holocaust comics - Age of Apocalypse. Holocaust played a significant part in the Age of Apocalypse storyline as head of the Horsemen, a Biblically-inspired quartet of villains that enforced Apocalypse's cullings. He first appeared as an agent of his father Apocalypse in a human body. Spying on the X-Men's headquarters on Wundagore Mountain, he waited until most of the team left to attack. Scarlet Witch had been left in charge of the facility and the small children at the school in case the team didn't come ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - The Holocaust in art and literature - Music

The massacre of Jews at Babi Yar inspired a poem written by a Russian poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko which was set to music by Dmitri Shostakovich in his Symphony No. 13. In 1984, Canadian rock band Rush recorded the song Red Sector A on the album Grace Under Pressure. The song is particularly notable for its allusions to The Holocaust, inspired by Geddy Lee's memories of his mother's stories [1] about ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - The Holocaust Industry - Reviews and critiques

The critical response has been varied. Raul Hilberg, one of the most famous and distinguished Holocaust historians, whose multi-volume The Destruction of the European Jews is widely regarded as the first seminal study on the Jewish Holocaust, has praised Finkelstein's book. When I read Finkelstein's book, The Holocaust Industry, at the time of its appearance, I was in the middle of my own investigations of these matters, and I came to the conclusion that he was on the right track. I refer now to the part of the book that ...

Ground was broken for the Holocaust Memorial Center on the property of the Jewish Community Campus at Maple and Drake Roads in West Bloomfield, Michigan, on December 6, 1981. Almost three years later, in October 1984, the Holocaust Memorial Center was dedicated and opened. Since then, the HMC has welcomed more than one million visitors from all over the world. Tens of thousands of schoolchildren tour the museum each year and have the unique experience of speaking with a survivor of the Holocaust. The Detroit News has ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - Phases of the Holocaust - Identification and definition

Before the Nazis could actually make laws that discriminated against Jews, the law needed to identify the range of persons to be targeted by those measures. This was especially hard, since the Nazi ideology saw the Jews as a race, and not a religious community, in contradiction of scientific fact. The Nuremberg Laws of 1935 identified someone with three or more Jewish grandparents as a 'full Jew', some with two Jewish grandparents as a '1st degree hybrid', and someone with one Jewish grandparent as a '2nd degree hybrid'. The actual re ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - Examination of Holocaust denial - Denial as anti-Semitism

Many publications and statements by Holocaust deniers have been tainted by anti-Semitism. Critics of Holocaust denial have cited many examples where the arguments and proffered evidence have moved from neutral, scholarly presentations to blatant, biased personal attacks. As a brief search of the Internet for such terms will reveal, Holocaust deniers have frequently used terms such as "Zionist Collaborator" or "Jew-lover" to describe their opponents. The continuing, persistent efforts by Holocaust deniers to portray such a human disast ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - Holocaust theology - Works of important Jewish theologians

Holocaust theology - Michael Berenbaum. (To be written.) Holocaust theology - Richard Rubinstein. Prof. Richard Rubenstein's original piece on this issue, "After Auschwitz", held that the only intellectually honest response to the Holocaust is the rejection of God, and the recognition that all existence is ultimately meaninglessness. There is no divine plan or purpose, no God that reveals His will to mankind, and God does not care about the world. Man must assert and create his ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - Aharon Rokeach - The Holocaust

During the Holocaust, Aharon and his brother, Mordechai of Bilgorai, as high-profile Jewish personalities, were high on the list of Gestapo targets. To that end, they spent most of the war hiding and moving from place to place, to avoid being captured. Eventually, they were taken out of Europe via a series of escapes, many of whose episodes have since passed into Belzer and general Hasidic folklore. Aharon and Mordechai immigrated to the British Mandate of Palestine in 1944. The two lost their entire extended families, including their ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - The Holocaust Industry - Content of the book

Many of the book's specific charges are hotly disputed: That powerful Jewish groups are exploiting the tragedy of the Holocaust for political and financial gain. That some attempts to redress the grievances of Jewish Holocaust victims have been dishonest. That some agencies claiming to represent Holocaust survivors in reparations suits have kept cash payments due the survivors. That many American Jews are not practicing Judaism but have repl ...

In the foreword to this edition Finkelstein explains his aim: My concern in this book is not at all Swiss bankers or, for that matter, German industrialists. Rather, it is restoring the integrity of the historical record and the sanctity of the Jewish people's martyrdom. I deplore the Holocaust industry's corruption of history and memory in the service of an extortion racket. The book's controversial thesis is that the memory of the Nazi genocide of Jews during WW-II was hijacked by a number of A ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - Hashomer Hatzair - Growth and the Holocaust

By 1939 Hashomer Hatzair had 70,000 members worldwide. The movement's base was in Eastern Europe. With the advent of World War II and the Holocaust members of Hashomer Hatzair changed their focus from settlement in Palestine to resistance against the Nazis.

Other members of the movement were involved in Jewish resistance and rescue in Hungary, Lithuania, Slovakia. The leaders of Hashomer Hatzair in Ro ...

the Holocaust: Encyclopedia II - History of gays in Nazi Germany and the Holocaust - Summary

Gay men were one more group targeted during the time of the Holocaust. More specifically, homosexuality was deemed incompatible with National Socialism and there was fear among Nazis of a "gay gene" contamination. Gays did not reproduce and perpetuate the master race, which was a sufficient excuse for the Reich to target them. Indeed, Ernst Röhm, the leader of the SA, who was one of the most responsible for Hitler's rise to power, was a homosexual. Some leaders clearly wanted gays exterminated, while others wanted enforcement of laws ...
