More than half of all people in the United Kingdom did not know that six million Jews were murdered by the Nazis during World War II, according to the findings of a new survey published Wednesday.
A majority, 52%, of UK respondents were unaware of the most cited death toll from the Nazi German genocide of Europe's Jews, and 22% of Brits thought that 2 million or fewer Jews were killed, the survey found.
The vast majority of respondents - 88% - said that it was important to continue to teach people about the genocide of Europe's Jews, in part so that it never happens again. Seventy-one percent said the government should support Holocaust education.
Fifty-six percent of respondents said they thought something like the Holocaust could happen again.

Time erases a lot of memories and people who lived through it die. But don't think Nazi's are gone. My son used to drink beer with friends in a German Bar. One night it was just him and the bartender. The bartender told him the holocaust never happened. But wait it gets worse. The bartender then placed a copy of Mein Kampf on the bar and asked him to read it. My son left and never returned.
Mein Kampf is an excellent book. I read in in junior high school. When somebody tells you what he will do if he ever gets the power to do it, and he then gets the power, you should believe that he will do what he said he would.
