Mein Kampf and the Protestant bible. One cannot understand the Holocaust without understanding Luther.

i like the jokes but on a serious level i fucking hate americans for doing this to every major tragedy. idolize it, dogmatize it, profit from it, surround it with censorship and conspiracy, make it a hot polarized topic, worship it, overblow it - and treat it as far from a tragedy as you can.
do they have any shame? any respect for the murdered? american holojerking is even more ridiculous than russian victurbation every May

Still Alive by Ruth Kluger is a book about living though the Holocaust and then it turns into a book about the Holocaust industry, especially in the US. You might like it.

>> No.18303162

based, thanks for the rec.
i've heard Primo Levi's stuff is genuine, Eli Wiesel's Night I've read and found it solid enough - especially the schizo kaballist arch - but somewhat too dramatized.
heard >>18303149 is shit

200 years together by Solzhenitzn
Zyklon B was lice spray made to stop the spread of Typhus in the camps. The Jews that were in there were well treated as they were basically the slave labour the Germans depended on to prop up their production of war materials.
American and British terror bombing destroyed all the infrastructure needed to feed people etc in the end so the camps and the inmates were in bad conditions as was the rest of the population.
Holocaust means blood sacrafice, the Jews believed they would be 6 million less before getting Israel back. Its a zionist fiction, some new historians in Israel say it. There are also kabbalistic implications with the 6 million number.
Nonetheless there were only 450000 Jews in Germany and 4 million turned up in the US before the war, as well as the ones that moved to France and Britain. Today there are more Jews than ever before.
