Why is Holocaust denial on the rise in the Arab world?
That the Holocaust never took place or that the Jews are the only ones that suffered in the Holocaust? As for the first part, I would say that only an idiot would believe it didn’t. The first-person accounts, the buildings in which they took place, the skeletons that bear witness to the torture and nauseating treatment of human beings. The marks on the survivors. No, no sane person could deny this. But it wasn’t just the Jews that were taken. The grand majority of the gypsies were slaughtered right alongside them. Sympathizers of both were also condemned to the camps. Even if you looked like a Jew or related to a sympathizer was enough to get you a one-way ticket to death. Add this to the fact that the Arabs have never forgiven them for the legion of evil deeds they’ve been doing to each other for what to them seems like time immemorial.
