For some reason,that doesn't surprise me in the least. I've had your number for some time.
Just something to consider.The Holocaust is one of the most thoroughly documented events in recorded history.Much of the documentation comes from Nazi records as well as from THOUSANDS of eye witness accounts given at the the Nuremberg Trials.
What is that you don't accept?
That there were 6 million victims? OK how many?
That the Nuremberg race laws of 1935 did NOT strip German Jews of their citizenship?
That there was no official Nazi policy called "The Final Solution" aimed at eliminating EVERY JEW IN EUROPE?
That NO ONE was killed because and only because he or she was a Jew?
That camps such; Auschwitz. Bergen-Belsen, Treblinka , Dacau, Maulthausen and Sorbibor did not exist? (let alone the other 15 THOUSAND CAMPS within German Territory)
That there weer no gas chambers and no ovens?
There were no SS death squads in Russia rounding up and shooting Jews (and Communist Commissars) in their thousands?
The Single atrocity of 30,00 murders at Babi Yar didn't happen?

Those,and more ,are the things Holocaust deniers say simply did not happen or are "grossly exaggerated.
To quibble over numbers and logsitics is disingenuous or just plain stupid. It DOESN'T MATTER,in principle if the figure is 6 million,or one million or one hundred thousand. There was a deliberate state policy,which was put into action, to murder an entire people. THAT is genocide,whether or not it succeeded.
After a forty year interest in and study of the holocaust,in my opinion,at two generations remove,our perceptions of that time are if anything,grossly UNDER stated..
The arguments against on logistical and statistical grounds are arguments from ignorance, or in some cases deliberate misinformation. Perhaps have glance at the publications below.May help you make an informed opinion,which you seem unable to do at present.
