The term holocaust comes from the Greek word holókauston, an animal sacrifice offered to a god in which the whole (holos) animal is completely burnt (kaustos).[13] For hundreds of years, the word "holocaust" was used in English to denote great massacres, but since the 1960s, the term has come to be used by scholars and popular writers to refer to the genocide of Jews.[4] The mini-series Holocaust is credited with introducing the term into common parlance after 1978.[14]
Why is the slaughter of the Jews called the Holocaust and not a genocide or massacre? Because the slaughtering of the Jews was a sacrifice / offering to create sympathy for the Jewish cause and the creation of Israel. It also served to paint the White Race as evil and worthy of extermination via social engineering.
Hitler and Churchill were funded by the same banking interests and the Second World War was an engineered conflict. Some conspiracy theories consider Hitler as an agent of the Rothschild family with his grandfather being the bastard son of a Rothschild and his maid. I am not sure of the validity of all this but it does raise interesting questions. Fact is it has been proven that Hitler had Jewish DNA.
