NSM researchers have uncovered evidence that, in the course of the 20th century, there had been three different occasions in which claims of six million Jews under attack were made.
First up, and previously overlooked by researchers, a major article on Anti-Semitism in the 10th edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica in 1902 said that there were six million Jews under attack in Eastern Europe.
The 10th Edition's complete article on Anti Semitism was reprinted in full in the great 11th Edition of the Encyclopaedia. This Edition is often known as the "Scholars' Edition. The crucial passage reads : "While there remain in Russia and Rumania over six millions of Jews who are being systematically degraded, and who periodically overflow the western frontier, there must continue to be a Jewish question in Europe". A search within the article on the word millions will quickly find the passage for you.
The NSM are the first to bring this major discovery to the attention of the 21st century public.
Rather better known is the fact that in 1919 former New York State Governor Martin Glynn was reported in the American Hebrew October 31, 1919 saying: "From across the sea six million men and women call to us for help, and eight hundred thousand little children cry for bread."
Two weeks later Felix M. Warburg, the Chairman of the Joint Distribution Committee of American Funds for Jewish War Sufferers was reporting that “The Jews were the worst sufferers in the war”..... “The successive blows of contending armies have all but broken the back of European Jewry and have reduced to tragically unbelievable poverty,starvation and disease about 6,000,000 souls, or half the Jewish population of the earth.’
He went on to say “For more than four years the war on the Eastern front was fought largely in the centers of Jewish population” and that “after the cataclysm of the last few years it is too much to expect this Jewry to become self-sustaining in a short twelve-month.” [New York Times November 12, 1919]
Edward M.M. Warburg, his son, was the Chairman of this same committee during World War 2.
According to the book The Secret War Against the Jews by John Loftus and Mark Aarons : "For the first twenty years after the war the only Jew to discuss the Holocaust on American television was an opera singer on the television show This is Your Life."
This may well be true of the post 1945 period. The word "holocaust" with reference to events in Europe in the 1930s is not used by The Encyclopedia Americana (1955), the 14th Edition of the Encylcopaedia Britanica (1966) or even Chamber's English Dictionary (1974).
Curiously enough, "holocaust" was used (along with pogrom) to describe events in Ukraine in The American Hebrew (July 25, 1919 page 250) "Race Hatred Envelopes Ukraine": "The starting point of the recent holocaust was Schitomir and spread to many other places."
But apparently even this was not the first use of "holocaust" as a simile for "genocide".
According to an article by Robert Fisk the term was first used, in 1915, by none other than Winston Churchill. Only he was not talking about the Jews. He was talking about the Armenians.
In some countries you can go to jail for "holocaust denial". Just so long as the "holocaust" you are denying involves Jews. You can deny the Armenian holocaust all you want. Nobody will give a damn. Hell you can even get the Israeli Foreign Minister, Shimon Prese, on your side. He said that the Aremenian holocaust was "meaningless" op cite.
Look what happened to Tariana Turia, a Maori activist and Minister in New Zealand's Labour government. She described certain events in New Zealand's 19th century history as a holcaust and caused outrage in the Jewish community.
Nobody gave a stuff about a few dead Maoris.
What caused the shock horror outrage was that she used the "holocaust" word. American Jews, who previously had not given a damn for New Zealand, or dead Maoris were suddenly up in arms.
(This material was updated on December 16, 2006 when the material relating to Felix M. Warburg was added as was the link to the 11th Edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica. Also as the original link to the article by Robert Fisk is now defunct a new link to the same article was substituted. Here is another reference to Churchill and the Armenian Holocaust.
There were international protest over Israeli Foreign Minister Shimon Peres' claims that the Armenian Genocide was"meaningless.")
