I have tweaked my request to be more clear on that point interestingly I was composing a note to you which got  with your message above in the aNi you discussed  and said that was prior to the holocaust I do not believe that is the universally accepted definition The holocaust often taken to be more than just the final solution our own article on the topic goes significantly into nuremberg laws and other repressions happening in the  range In this sense I was using Holocaust to mean the whole of negative actions taken by the nazis against the jews and not referring specifically to gassingcremationetc Would this be helpful to clarify in my unblock
