The Nazis put half of their effort into the coverup, and for the most part, they were successful with that. [b]I am of the opinion that the war was fought to provide the screen and get access to the Jews. Secondary gains like land, gold, and slave labor from all non Germans were less important. [/b]

No way! Nooo, Hitler had that much animosity towards Jews that that was the real reason for the war? War is usually about resources. And if you get rid of people you think are your enemies then all the better. Not the other way around, right?[/quote]
interesting point of view. Are wars fought because of natural resources of the need to annihilate the perceived enemy?

Americans annihilated the natives. That was a holocaust too[/quote]

Most natives died because of disease agents carried by European settlers against which they had no immunity. This is different from exterminating people on purpose.[/quote]

This isn't wrong, but it isn't the full story. Andrew Jackson followed that up with a policy of Indian Removal in order to have more Southern land to put under cotton. (Using slaves, of course. Indian Removal is a two-fer in the atrocity column.) We'd call it ethnic cleansing now.

We also deliberately starved people who were left (which leads to the Sioux uprising in MN) and tried to kill people via strategies such as smallpox blankets. At Wounded Knee, we deliberately massacre women, children and old people.
