See, you don't know anything about history. Three million Poles were killed b/c they were untermenschen, not just cuz they were in the way. More Polish Christians than Jews. Whole villages, towns. It's insulting that you don't know that. It WAS genocide; the Polish Jews weren't the Nazi's own citizens; neither were the Christians. But they weren't Aryans. In fact, more Slavs were killed in camps, firing squad & etc than Jews.
Or did you miss that footnote to history, bigot.

It doesn't matter to him. Didn't you hear? What really matters is the percentage of the population that was killed. We have so many Catholics and others, you could kill 20 million of them and it wouldn't matter.
Hell, the millions upon millions of Catholics and Orthodox (and Jews, for that matter) killed for their faith in the Soviet Union and China still haven't managed to get a footnote in history.
But Pius! Yeah, he's the guy who needs yet another movie/book/thread to condemn him. Not Stalin. Or Mao. Neither of whom Hollywood has seen fit to make a negative film about yet. HMMMMMMM.

The same number of Polish Christians as Polish Jews (3 million in each case) were killed by the Nazis in World War II.
Poles suffered abominably under the Germans, worse than almost any other Christian nationality. The difference being that if you were a Polish Catholic, you had a reasonably good chance of surving the war (6 out of 7 did), while if you were a Polish Jew and didn't escape to the Soviet Union in the first few months, you had maybe a 1 in 20 chance of surviving.
Not that the Soviet Union was a fun place to spend the war either.
