Is undue emphasis given to the Jews killed in the Holocaust?

[Redalgo]

I agree with Antonio, and would add that the most prejudicial folks tend to be equal-opportunity bigots. That is to say, one identifies with and is staunchly loyal to a perceived in-group, whereas anyone who is "other" becomes subject to suspicion and, at least potentially, a target for him or her to aggress against while feeling self-righteous and perhaps completely justified in doing so.

I do not think the crimes perpetrated against Jews during the Holocaust can truly be overstated enough but would like to see the suffering of more groups brought to the public's attention. It is only a bad thing, in my opinion, when people who live today try to invoke the image of atrocities from long ago to rationalize the perpetuation of new injustices. However, that is another matter altogether, really, and is not at all meant as a jab at the majority of folks in any particular group.
