6 million Jews were killed. 5 million NON-Jews were killed Hitler mainly wanted a Aryan Supremacy “Holocaust” is derived from the Greek words

“completely burnt”

HOLOCAUST On April 1, 1933, the Nazis instigated

their first action against German Jews by announcing a boycott of all Jewish-run businesses.

In 1941 they established six extermination centers in occupied Poland and began the wholesale murder that now typifies all accounts of the Holocaust.

The first people the Nazi attacked were the disabled and handicap

WHAT IF I WERE THE PRESIDENT? I would try to make them as much like what

America used to be before Obama came along

That is, just out of debt I would take all of the socialism out of that

country And I would make it more economically

friendly Also I would work to change the flag. I would not let illegal people into my country. They would be taking the money from our

hardworking people.
