Indeed prior to the relief of Belsen in 1945 very little indeed was known about the treatment of the Jews & others. The fact that the Russians had liberated Aushwitz & other places in Poland 6 months previous and had said nothing.....

How many Asians died during the Holocaust?

Asians who were targeted were mostly POW or the rare immigrants. Asians generally weren't a problem during the Holocaust, it targeted Jews and Gypsies, but WW2 is separate from the Holocaust and people don't realize it. the US got involved in WW2 because of the Holocaust, which was Hitler's burning of Jews to get rid of the 'unclean' people. Then Japan attacked Pearl Harbor which got us involved in the war. The Holocaust is only a factor that was a part of WW2, but wasn't the only reason why we were at war with Germany and Japan.
