Fastest killings in genocide history

[BattlingNelson]

.... was Aktion Reinhardt during the holocaust.


In a 100 day span during the months of august, september and october in 1942, 1.5 million jews where gassed or shot.


That's an average of 15,000 a day and that's the most intesive period of genocidals killings in world history.


Untill this recent study came about, the general consensus was that the genocide in Rwanda where between 500,000 and 1 million was killed. During that genocide 'only' about 8,000 was killed a day.

Idk the exact number. But the fact is, that 6 million was exaggerated after WW2, because of the sock that it came after Germany was defeated but that figure had remained in history. It was estimated to be somewhere around 3-4 million Jews that were killed in WW2.

But recently, anti-semites challenged the claim and that it was only around 300,000-500,000 Jews that died in Germany, with the reason that majority of them died because of the resistance against Nazi Germany in armed combat, and concentration camps were actually labor camps, and most of the jewish prisoners died due to disease and starvation. Basically holocaust deniers.

One thing is for sure though is that the Holocaust happened, but the true figures of Jews dead in WW2 will remain in the enigma of history.

Yet I'm still bothered how holocaust deniers still deny that it happened, because there are hundreds of minutes of footage of Jews being shot and killed and forced to make their own grave before ordered by the Nazi soldiers to lay on their grave and shoot them.

My grandfather was a WW2 veteran, and he befriended a Jew when 10,000 Jews came to the Philippines for asylum and refuge, he said that only only his mother, and sister survived after his uncle, aunts, father, other siblings etc. etc. got caught in an effort to escape when they were just about to leave the coast of the Nazi germans.
