Wanna say the U.S. Was responsible for terrorist bombings on its own soil of the world trade center?
I don't hate Jewish people, but don't you find this a bit odd?

Nope, it isn´t. It´s a bit odd that, after reading all the SS material, there are still people who think that the holocaust never happened.
All of these are completely idiotic, so it's actually a good comparison.
And people react that way because only racist fuckwads don't believe the holocaust occurred.
Yes, it's wrong. Conspiracy should not be supported in any way by medias, outside of the entire point of medias ("These people believe in X/Y/whatever, let's see their arguments and then scientific studies/hidden cams/serious arguments from the other side/ect...", neutrality to be clear)
Though that shouldn't (and hopefully doesn't) give you the right to claim the Holocaust never happened/was exagerated. As much as I have very high tolerance for ironic godwins and "troll nazis" (pretend Hitler did/could have done something good in a situation in a sarcastic way, or feature Hitler in a reaction image/semi-RP post to give an ironic turn to the discussion), I have zero tolerance for people who come back on the actual historical facts and actually try to tell the public Nazis were good without the tiniest hint of sarcasm
If you want to doublecheck the Holocaust, go right ahead, the bodycount can be discussed to some degree and is generally said to be around 6 millions jews. But if you imply something that sounds like "Concentration camps were regular prisons and only a thousand or so died due to sickness, and anyway that wasn't like Hitler wanted to kill all the Jews" you can be sure to be called out as an anti-semitic nazi, and deserve it
The holocaust happened.
"You will find your niche!"
Speaking of finding niches..
"Linguists actually have a word for these kind of statements, "but-heads" (no joke)." Article on RationalWiki
All of those points could be easily debated away, but there are mountains of evidence which shows that the Holocaust did happen, and the only ones denying that it did are the ones who would like to see it happen again. In other words, antisemitic racists.
"Wanna say that the facts about the Holocaust should be re-examined and that there might be some flaws in what was said?"
You can say that. It's perfectly reasonable to hold the position that historical events should be open to new investigation. Nothing wrong with that at all.
However, your position is "it didn't happen", which is _not_ a reasonable position. It is a position that asks for ridicule as much as 9/11 "truthers", flat-earthers, homeopaths, and moon landing hoaxers.
This is true, though.
1) You have just gone ahead and found your niche - you, like all those above, are ridiculous.
2) About 85% of those who died in World War II were not Jewish. However, the great majority of European (and some non-European) Jews were murdered by the Nazis; this is true of no other people.
3) People who are dead tend not to have any power
4) You sound pretty antisemitic to me.
Been a while.
Re-examine it all you like. You have the right to do so.
But we have videotaped, photographic proof that the Holocaust DID happen!
@Skatepunk
Careful there, you'll just encourage them to claim it was Photoshopped, or edited with X software, or other things that didn't exist back when that evidence was captured. :P
Um....what? The holocaust deniers do have their niche, amongst the other deniers. Try even mentioning the term "1%" around a hardcore conservative, I've had people decide that I've never worked an honest day in my life over opinions like that.
Oh, it's odd alright.
I mean, yeah, you can say any other crazy, stupid, and bigoted thing you want but holocaust denial is what's not acceptable?
It should be all of those things, not just holocaust denial that's considered absolutely retarded.
@NWA
Well, here goes... ahem. I'm not a racist, but I do think "Love Thy Neighbour" was a cracking good comedy!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
