text: why the jewish hollocaust was so remembered but why was the native american genicide forgotten? jewish hollucaust,milions killed, but more than 250 million killed in the first 10 years. over 100 tribes totally extinct by american government. and is this now what is going on to those poor people in the middle east.(iraq). because the jewish have become a force in the world. the american natives prefer to live their lives as they are, quite aware that the material world isn't as important as people seem to believe.   the jews used their influence and remorse over the holocaust to cover their genocide of the palestinians and to acquire the land that's now called israel.  and one of the previous answers here needs a factual correction. saddam ordered the killing in cold blod of about 10 thousand iraqi's in three rows. the bush family (the sr and the jr) managed to kill more than 1.5 million and the count still goes on, where near 1 million were killed due to the embargo that preceeded the oil-for-food programme, embargo which they thought would help to ignire a revolution in iraq to topple saddam. instead it lead to a humanitarian disaster, where a million people died due to the lack of food and medical supplies. un reports counted about 500 thousand children that died due to direct effects of the embargo, reports which in turn led to the resignation of the chief of the un aid envoy to iraq. considering the counting still goes on, i believe the numbers speak for themselves. you can't say that 10 thousand bodies are genocide ... but the 1.5 million are indeed.
