The allies cut the supply lines, I'm not surprised detainees were starving by the time they were freed.

Why isn't there better evidence? Like pictures of something the US doesn't also do to the people we have imprisoned. They have children and crematoriums and potter's fields full of bones too.

The Holocaust does not make much sense. Unless, it’s looked at from a propaganda point of view. The ruling class does so much reframing of the truth. I simply don’t believe the Holocaust.

Of course it doesn't to you. You want to feign ignorance so you can pretend it never happened.

I simply don’t believe the Holocaust.

Naturally.

It's worth noting that even after the war in Europe ended, something like 40,000 Germans died of starvation and disease in American POW camps, and those are just the numbers Eisenhower admitted to. The actual number is likely much higher. I believe one historian put the number at 1 million. This doesnt include the hundreds of thousands that perished in Soviet POW camps. God knows how many German civilians died in the aftermath. So we couldn't even properly feed these people despite not being fire bombed, strafed, shelled and having our supply lines cut, while vengeful soldiers were razing your cities and raping your women, conditions the Germans were under for years.

Not true, upwards of 56,000 died.

In early April 1945, the United States was responsible for 313,000 prisoners in Europe; by month’s end this total had shot up to 2.1 million. After the fall of the Third Reich, the number rose to a staggering 5 million German and Axis POWs. Of those, an estimated 56,000, or about 1 percent, died—roughly equal to the mortality rate American POWs suffered in German hands.

The Americans were very civil towards the Nazis. Too bad the Nazis were not civil towards Russian soldiers they captured.

Finally, someone says it.

lol, the lies holocaust deniers come up with never ceases to amaze me. Hitler intentionally starved those at concentration camps, they were not starving because of supply lines that were cut by the allies.

Starvation was a central strategy in the Nazi genocide against the Jews. Hitler had long been aware of the power that lay in controlling the food.

Forced, deliberate starvation also played a role in the Holocaust.

“Many of those who died in the gas chambers or during transport to the concentration camps, were already emaciated.”

All prisoners in the camps were starving. But the Jews starved the most.

Non-Jewish prisoners were allowed to receive food from the Red Cross, as well as from friends and family – a privilege not afforded to the Jewish inmates.

What does that have to do with Nazis starving Jews? Try to stay on topic, please.

You're saying you don't understand how it's relevant that these pictures you claim show horrors, are things you can see in the US prison system now?

Anyways, I don't really care about your rhetoric or your cause, or the other side, I'd just like to see proof. Documents, photos, movies, the raw data. The Nazis were known for being pretty meticulous record keepers. Surely these things exist so anyone with healthy skepticism can see the facts for themselves.

The US prison system has nothing to do with the holocaust.
