Besides TV shows and word of mouth, what EVIDENCE is there that 6 millon JEWS were killed in the "Holocaust?"?
I mean the kind of evidence that would be used in court. Thanks.
Where are these photos and documents, Adam?
Can anyone see them?

"freaking moron" is not an answer. You are funny!

This what made me to deny the Holocaust.There is nothing but lies. Yes, I think Jews were killed but this subject is alwayz dramatised.There are other wars that more that 6 millions were killed but no one talks about it.The Holocaust has been made by these warmongers to justify they cause. That's why Jews do whatever they want:occupy others lands, kill women and children, and they rarely get condemned because of this Holocaust. What made Iraqis to be killed like ants? Is this a Holocaust?

Because that's not true. Poland's population in 1939 was 36 million, of which 3.1 million were Jews. The maximum possible amount of Jews killed then could be 3.1 million. Truth is of course not every Polish Jew died. They commonly report it as "6 million Jews were killed" instead of "6 million Polish were killed". In fact brith records from the time indicate the Jews were the only ethnicity in Europe in actually increase in population during the war with record numbers of births. No, I am not a Nazi sympathiser, just a person who reads history and likes the truth no matter whether that truth is popular or not. EDIT: I see a lot of misinterpretations of things in these answers you're getting. I have been to Auschwitz. It is a concentration camp. Meaning a lot of people were kept in a small area. It does not mean gas chamber. I also take issue with the idea that debate over the history of the Jews in WWII is taken as bigotry towards Jews. Some countries will put historians in jail for reporting facts that go against the "official" story. Everyone should try to read more and think independantly of the media.

You guys are just waiting for the survivers to die out, or what? Because there still are some. And over here a lot of us know people or have known people who have been in the camps.
When I was first out of law school, I lived in an apartment building where some of the old ladies doing their laundry in the basement had tattood numbers on their arm - various different sized, and old. I doubt it was a 1930s fashion statement. I also had a close friend whose entire family on her father's side had been killed in the camps, and her father had been brought to the US an orphan after the war.
And 5 million more were killed who were not Jewish.
Do I know those are the exact numbers? No. But you are never going to convince anyone who knew people who had been there that it didn't happen.
However, some people jump from that to the idea that Israel can do no wrong, and I don't make that jump. Israel is a political entity and has its own ambitions and can take care of itself. I really think we shouldn't be in the middle of all of its fights.

Word of mouth? How about the recorded speeches and writings of the Nazi leadership? How about the concentration camps that still exist as museums? The photos of the liberation of those camps? The testimonial statements of the Soviet and American soldiers who liberated those camps? The exhumed mass graves? The hundreds of thousands of recorded pieces of witness testimony? All of these things would be admissible in most courts in the world.
There are people, even today, who deny that the Holocaust ever happened. If my dear grandma were alive today, she would ask you, "Where are my twelve brothers and sisters? Where are my cousins? Where are my parents? My nephews, my nieces? How is it that alone among my entire extended family I survived, but my Polish Christian neighbors are mostly all still alive?"
Edit: Many of the original documents that were used in evidence at the Nuremberg tribunals are actually in the archives of the Harvard Law School. So yes, you can actually make an appointment and see the documents yourself (assuming you have or can get library access).

birth records
records found at the camps
pictures and films of the camps taken at the time of their discovery.
piles of corpses
mass grave sites
witness statements
The 6 million figure is an estimate ... but would it make much of a difference if only 5 million died?
It's not the numbers of dead that is so horrifying really .. it was the systematic planning that went into the halocaust. Like a death factory.

I wonder why this new revisionism of history, well documented history even if you refuse to accept it, has recently come to the fore. The proof is there, the Nazi death machine kept immaculate records and the proof from eye witnesses is large and varied, from both survivors, to liberators, to the Nazis themselves.
Actually, if you refuse to believe it, so be it. You are misinformed and ignoring history. Good luck to you, my friend.

There is no evidence that could be held to that standard. There is plenty of anecdotal evidence, but the 6 million figure is based mostly on estimates of prewar and postwar Jewish populations in Europe, which were highly unreliable. Before you jump all over me, I'm not a holocaust denier, but the fact remains there is no evidence that would ever hold up in a court of law.
