I'll probably leave out a few of the intended groups, but the targets of the Nazi regime were (in no particular order): Gypsies, Jews, homosexuals, political dissidents, Jehova's Witnesses, Catholics, Slavs of any nationality, and the very old, mentally disabled or physically disabled.

NO

People were not persecuted in the Holocaust for being French, Italian, National, Catholic, Non-German, Transexual, Polish, Slavic or prisoners of war.

'Mentally retarded' is just an offensive way of saying 'disabled'.

Many of those groups did suffer under the Nazis, but it had nothing to do with the Holocaust.

The Jews (and Gypsies) were targeted for extermination and imprsionment, a fate that did not apply to ANY of the other groups. Groups such as Jehovah's Witnesses or homosexuals were targeted as to eliminte the practices of those groups, not eliminate the people practicing them, the individuals were released if they made a statement recanting their ways.
