It's not, when people say that, they are taking words out of Context. It was a quote by Deputy Defense Minister Matan Vilnai saying that Hamas is bringing a bigger Shoah upon themselves. Shoah is the Hebrew word for disaster, that is also used to describe the Holocaust in Germany. Vilnai said disaster, not Holocaust.
