Holocaust denial is on the increase

We must never deny or forget

We should never forget!

I have seen lots on this subject on twitter but nothing on mainstream media, I could have just missed things though.

Surely people who deny the holocaust have political motives because the historical evidence is clearly documented and within living memory of some.

There are no grounds for denial except ignorance or malice.

I heard Nigel Farage discussing this on LBC this morning. 1 in 20 people don’t believe it happened? I am astonished.
Who are these people? Did they not understand the question?

1 in 12 believe it is exaggerated, this was the result of a poll

Unbelievable, when documentation including graphic film, photographs images and so on all exist. Perhaps people think moving pictures of the death camps is just people acting in a film?!! and documentation exaggeration! Perhaps people just don't care anymore, perhaps politicians etc play it down for fear of an anti German backlash ? Who knows! Whatever it is, it's very sad to think of all those murdered souls who suffered so dreadfully, who today some people almost shrug about!
