The JEWISH GENOCIDE and the ignorance when using said term

Children walking towards the gas chamber

the word GENOCIDE It was first created in 1944 by the Polish Jewish jurist Raphael Lemkin. This one used two elements, the first from Greek: Genoswhich means race, tribe or people; the word for the elements came from Latin: -cidium (from Latin cidium, which in turn is a derivative of caedere), What does it mean to kill? Therefore a GENOCIDE it is simply Kill a town.

Lemkin coined the saying it ended in his book Axis Rule in Occupied Europe (The Axis Government in Occupied Europe – 1944) to describe the horrors committed by the Nazi and communist regimes against Jews and other peoples, including homosexuals, handicapped people, gypsies and others, in the World War II. His intention was to generate a term that could describe a new and specific crime: the systematic and deliberate destruction of a people or human group, in whose destruction measures were also sought to eliminate their culture, their identity and their living conditions.

In 1948, the United Nations, when it approved the Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, accepted this term as a significant element within the legal and moral field, within the field of international law.

Throughout recent history, this term has been applied on some occasions within international criminal law. The Rwandan court (ICTR) specifically condemned “the genocide” committed in the Akayesu case, in 1998. The Yugoslavian Tribunal (ICTY) recognized what happened in Srebrenica in 1995 as genocide. Likewise, since 2002 the genocide has been included in the Rome Statute as one of the four most serious crimes: genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity and aggression. (1)

Today, the day has come when it appears that Hamas and the Israeli government are on the verge of signing a “peace” agreementthat if the terrorists are not beheaded, it will not last, we all deserve a break from the stench of Nazism that has swept through Europe in the last month and that has not exactly come from the sewers of the less moderate extreme right, but from the democrats who, launched in search of votes, have had no shame in embracing anti-Semitic and genocidal ideals with the excuse of protecting the Palestinian people (mostly Jordanians), that they have never been interested in.

WHY WAS WHAT HAPPENED IN WORLD WAR II AGAINST THE JEWISH PEOPLE CONSIDERED A GENOCIDE? And because of said genocide, how many Jews were no longer born?.

Jew freed from a concentration camp

Virtually all the sources consulted speak of a number of Jews exterminated, murdered, in World War II, which ranges from 5.5 million to 6.6 million people exterminated. Men, women and children, in Europe, were gassed, shot, murdered, used as guinea pigs by unscrupulous doctors, and whatever atrocities the Nazis could think of, until they were exterminated.

Since the second great war, basically three generations have passed. If the genocidal murder of so many Jews had not occurred, how many Jewish citizens would we have on our streets today, contributing knowledge, culture or business, that is, contributing wealth to a Europe that has been collapsing for years.

The vast majority of Jews died between 1941 and 1946, just 80 years ago, in concentration camps such as Auschiwtz, Treblinca, Sobidor and others. Based on this data, I have worked with some statisticians and the results are terrifying.

Taking 6 million deaths as a base, let’s see to date (2025) how many generations of Jews have been affected and how many people have stopped being born.

SUPPOSED:
1.- 6 Million Jews were murdered.
2.- We have assumed, based on the estimated data, that the majority were young people or adults of reproductive age (including children) who would have had children eventually.
3.- A generational model has been used:
– One generation every 25 years (Grandmother, Mother, Daughter).
– Each couple would have, on average, 2 children (a fairly conservative number, if we take into account that they used to have more. And even in Eastern Europe they used to be older)
4.- From 1945 to 2025, 80 years have passed, that is, approximately 3 generations.

APPROXIMATE CALCULATION:
Let us remember that we are starting from 6 million people who could have children and that statistically we will have to divide this number in half. That is, we will work with three million healthy couples. And we will make a projection in time.

1st Generation 1 (1950-1975):
– Each couple would have an average of two children.
– 3 million x 2 unborn children = 6 million Jews
2nd Generation 2 (1975-2000):
– 6 million x 2 children = 12 million Jews.
3rd Generation 3 (2000-2025):
– 12 million x 2 children = 24 million Jews.

In conclusion, the 6 million people murdered throughout the last century and the 25 years of this century would have resulted in the existence of approximately 42 million Jews in Europe.

The figure is only a theoretical estimate. Not all of them would have had two children, not even all of them would have had, although some would have fathered many more than two, taking into account the more traditional families and the economic means that Jews generally enjoyed. Likewise, infant mortality has not been considered, which in these groups is not excessive.

In short, the Holocaust was not only a genocide against so many millions of individual people, but also against a brutal amputation of entire generations that were to arrive in the recent future. What was lost in lives, stories, potential, etc.; It is incalculable. That is why, before using terms like Genocide, arbitrarily in the conflict that already seems to be resolved, just to get a handful of votes, the European community should look at where it is in these moments of conflict resolution: European leaders will see the solution on television, that is what their diatribes are for.

When human rights are analyzed in modern, contemporary societies, the unborn are almost never thought of, especially in conflicts where the real intention is to exterminate a certain tribe, ethnic group or group. In the end it is not just the quantity, but the enormous loss of the flow of history that is destroyed. Nobody, within the Jewish community, intends to exterminate the Palestinian people, nobody. But the founding charter of Hamas, written in 1988, is more similar to the book written by Hitler, due to its declaration of concrete intentions to wipe out the Jewish people, than to an organic and ideological textbook. To assume these principles is to favor terrorists, it is to be against the human rights that they are supposedly trying to defend. History, always history, will end up putting everyone in their place.

(1)Author’s note. I have not included data on the two genocides after the one committed against the Jewish people in World War II, simply because they are sufficiently documented on the Internet to expand this article. Suffice it to say that Europe bowed its head in the Srebrenica genocide at the beginning of the 90s, where a group of Muslims was brutally attacked due to delusional ideas promoted by Serbian psychiatrists, in an effort to erase said group from the map, in the heart of what they considered their historical territory in Europe. Nor am I going to delve now into the error of comparing what happened in Gaza, it was a genocide, but a war that has been going on in that area between Israel and other Palestinian tribes against a terrorist movement that in its founding letter in 1988 decided that it was going to exterminate the Jewish people. On October 7, 2023, Hamas began what it thought would be an act of genocide against the Jewish people, thinking, as it was guaranteed, that Iran, Qatar, etc., would support it. The Jews have waged a war where more than 30% of the dead have been Hamas terrorists, not soldiers, and where their dead relatives, including women and children, have been vilely used as human shields, as have Jewish hostages. But that is another story that I may tackle in the future.
