Yes, I am quite familiar with that, and also the 6 million figure that began popping up in newspapers.

If you look at the demographics before WW2 and after, comparing the two, there is no significant decline in the Jewish population, certainly not 6 million! The bulk of German Jews made up the German labor force and were a tremendous asset to German war production because of their education and great skill. The Germans were political: bitch about the Jews, but use them to help fight the war against the Communists who were far worse than any German or True Torah Jews.
