That mention does not lessen the value of the sacrifice of all of hitler's victims.

Sure it does because the others are not mentioned at all. The reason I didn't complete the list is because I didn't even know about all the others slaughered by Hitler that you listed. No one does because no one in the media ever talks about them and yes, that does diminish their deaths.

Just your calling their deaths "sacrifice" rather than deaths diminishes these people. Evil is evil and death is death even if the people were not Jewish. I've had this argument via email with Allan Colmes recently. He doesn't think the other deaths are "as important" as the Jewish deaths either. Apparently this is a common belief amongst Jews and their supporters.

Thanks for your heads up to the holocaust museum website. I will take a look.

When one sacrifices their life for a worthy belief or cause ( as in fighting hitler/nazism) their death is not lessened by their SACRIFICE!!!!!

I have no idea why you think a sacrifice in the death of a human is lessened because that word 'SACRIFICE' is used.

You DO know that CHRIST SACRIFICED HIS LIFE WHEN HE DIED ON THE CROSS, DON'T YOU?

"I didn't even know about all the others slaughered by Hitler that you listed. No one does because no one in the media ever talks about them and yes, that does diminish their deaths."

Oh, I see you think everybody has to have to get all their Holocaust info. from the media. Try independent reading and study. Also, read more info. on this thread and others on the Holocaust. You just might get "educated" about the holocaust yet.

I have found out that various media groups do mention Holocaust victims of all kinds. One can find out all about it IF one really wants to.

Thank you for stating that better than I could have. I don't believe that my Polish relatives are any less dead or any less important than any Jew that was slaughtered by Hitler!

The above statement is reprehensible. Jews don't consider their deaths (excuse me, murders) more "important" than others. You are making a blanket generalization about Jews that you cannot back. I am a messianic Jew (A Jew who believes in Jesus as lord and savior) and I mourn all of Hitler's victims. I urge a visit to the Holocaust Museum so that you can get a better understanding of how we feel, instead of just assuming we think we are more important than anyone else. Remember, Jesus was born a Jew. What would Hitler have done with his family?
