> I wonder how many Germans knew the Holocaust was going on?

And even as we speak:

"Religious hardliners in Iran do not publicly deny the Holocaust
occurred but say its scale has been exaggerated to justify the creation of
Israel and continued Western support for it."

It probably has been exaggerated, but not by much.  There's not much
difference in moral terms between 6 million, 5.5 million or even 1.  But
those figures are for the systematic processing of people clearly
identified as Jews - how many more died as "collateral damage"
even before they were singled out?
