In a major Holocaust, mass butchering takes place, irrespective of caste, creed or religion. All sorts of human rights are violated. Specially the basic and most fundamental 'Right to Live' is grossly denied. This is the most tragic part of any holocaust.

_________

'irrespective of caste, creed or religion'? No, certain groups are targeted. It isn't random spree-killing.

There was no international declaration or charter on human rights at that time. but by all reasonable standards there were some atrocious acts carried out during the Second World War.

Most notable was the extermination of millions of Jews, Romanies, Poles and Russians by the Nazi party. It was a co-ordinated program that intended to rid Europe of certain groups and races. It is, to this day, considered to be one of the worst violations of human rights ever witnessed.

As we look back over the progress of the war, commentators now question the validity of the aerial bombings by German and allied forces. The technology of the time meant that bombing was poorly targeted and inevitably, there were civilian casualties. If such campaigns were operated today, there would be an international outcry about human rights violations. Seven decades back, it was seen as a necessary part of the war effort. The years since the end of WW2 has seen a shift in attitude regarding acceptable actions in war.
