A dog is prose. A cat is poetry.

My post said before it was erased that all the Jews I know feel that asking if the Holocaust is real is

very very offending for them.

The rest is already here.

Enough of this! Add me to the list of Jewish-by-heritage, lost-relatives-in-the-Haulocast people you know. I was not offended by the question. It did not speak to denial, only lack of information.

The original question has now been answered. Leave off on this aspect of the subject.

Photograph taken January 1945 before the Vernichtungslager Auschwitz-Birkenau was liberated by the Soviet Army.

Kappos and sondercommandos stand among corpses taken from the gas chambers.

Rudolf Hess commanded the Konzentrationslager. Manned by SS troops.

Truth is offensive.

G'day Jet Jaguar,

I just wanted to remind the forum that the original thread poster has contributed exactly one post to this forum.

One post from a really confused questioner from who knows where Rose [F] and now we find ourselves at each other's throat.  What a fascinating development that a blind drunk Blind Freddy in a coal cellar at midnight with his head up a black cat's bum could have seen coming.

I put it to you that Jet Jaguar is loving this.

I do not believe that the thread was started with genuine intentions and this is supported by the fact that Jet Jaguar has not made even a token effort to straighten out any of the many misunderstandings that are plaguing this thread and bringing down the entire mood of the forum.

Is this what the administrator wants of this forum?

Is acrimony a learning tool?

How do we bond across cultures when this type of divisiveness is generated by a question that would be obvious even to Homer Simpson after a meal of The Merciless Peppers of Quetzlzacatenango.

To answer the question.  YES   Hitler murdered millions of Jews in his ovens and gas chambers.  I can not swear to express my feelings but I see that people have displayed photographs some of the dead victims so I could say !@#$%^&*()_+ intil the cows come home and it would be less intense than the one damned blink I was cursed with before I scrolled past it.  I did not kill anybody and I spit on anybody who suppports anybody who did and I do not deserve to be subjected to those photos.  I understand why the poster posted the photos but I am sad that I saw them as it will take months to wash their intensity from my mind.

Why are such photographs not considered to be pornographic?  Why are such photographs not at least as offensive as a clevage and bottom glossy of plastic imperfection?

Is this a photo taken while the camp was controlled by Germans, Britains, Americans, or Russians?

Thanks

Why do you ask?

Thanks.

Well, you have answered a question with a question, so I will in turn ask you; don't you think it is relevant?
Anonymous, 2 yr 180 days ago

Don't you think it might be considered more than slightly disrespectful to the souls and descendents of the departed to show photos of their corpses without even captioning the photos?

I find it quite offensive, and demand that the poster offer an apololgy!

Dear Anonymous,

Is what relevant?

To which it do you so eloquently refer?
