Apparently some people need an explanation on Jews should be mentioned when commemorating the Holocaust: Hitler created a genocide machine against the Jewish people across Europe and North Africa, murdering 6M out of a population of 9.5M (in Europe).
The Jews were 1% of Germans

He used existing Jew hatred and added dehumanizing & false accusations to rally the support of regular citizens who turned away and turned in their Jewish neighbors. The smokestacks of Aushweitz were in plain view of the town.
Cattle cars stuffed with Jews were transported. 1.5 million children were slaughtered because they were Jews. And before that we were cramed into ghettos & systematically stripped of all rights. Jewish stores destroyed, synagogues torched, Jews mowed down in the street.
And before that we were kicked out of schools, removed from faculty & positions, beaten on the streets for being different, told that we were the reason the economy was poor and people were suffering.
Every single death of innocents is tragic. It was the Jews who were systemically targeted for erasure. We were mass slaughtered, our babies slammed into walls & used as target practice. We were burnt alive in a cold and efficient extermination machine. And it started with words.
We see these words now and we see Jews beaten up on the streets of London, New York, & even Jerusalem. No we aren't called Christ killers anymore, but we are called Zionists, globalists, and blamed for the world's ills. Jews are taken hostage in synagogues in 2022
Why say Jew when talking about the Holocaust? Because words matter. Incitement matters. And Corbyn is one of the worst inciters So, no, I won't let you "all lives matter" the Holocaust & ignore the systemic genocide of European jewelry.
I was raised at the knees of Survivors. You erasing their pain, the murder of their spouses & children bc they were Jews is not acceptable. I owe it to them, to my children and yours. A genocide of Jews took place. 6 Million of us were murdered. We won't let you whitewash history
