How many people died in the Holocaust because of the genocide?

Toward the end of the war, when the NAZI's were finally aware that they would be defeated, the leaders were directed to destroy all record of the murders. A part of their conscence told them that they had committed evil acts.

As in the death camps, the NAZI's were efficient also in destroying records. As a result, estimates were made based on the number of Jews in Germany, Austria, Poland, France and other Axis occupied nations BEFORE the war and the number who were not found afterward. Family members reported who was taken away, Jews who were forced to work in the death camps kept a type of record, many NAZI war criminals were interviewed and a great effort was made to try to determine the number of people that were murdered. Over 5,000,000 people were killed
Presumably there have been acts of genocide that have not been recorded and are simply not known. In the 20th century there were: * The genocide of the Herero tribe in what was then German South-West Africa (commited by Germany). Death toll: about 65,000 (?). * The slaughter of the Armenians by the Ottoman Turkish government in 1915-1917. (Modern Turkey has excruciating hang-ups admitting this). Death toll: about 1.2-1.5 million.* The Nazi genocide of the Jews (1941-1945). Death toll: about 5.75 million. * Genocide of the Tutsis by the Hutus - Rwanda, 1993. Death toll: about 800,000.
Total Deaths*:

6,000,000 Jews

11,500 in all

How can genocide be prevented?

The sensory nerves are those that send signals from both the muscles and the skin to the brain and spinal cord where it is processed, causing you to experience many sensations, including pain. There are many things that can cause nerve pain. Nerve pain and damage may often be mild, but even then it can still affect your life.

One particular type of nerve pain that millions of people experience is sciatica. Sciatica refers to a condition where the sciatic nerve, which starts in the lower back and travels through the buttocks into the leg, is pinched. The sciatic nerve is made up of multiple spinal nerves so that when it is pinched it can cause pain that extends from the buttocks all the way down the back of the leg. This type of nerve pain is usually caused by a herniated disc or a bone sput that presses on one of the roots of the sciatic nerve.

Symptoms of nerve pain caused by sciatica are:

•Lower back pain

•Pain in the back of the thigh, lower leg or foot. This pain may often be worse than the back pain itself.

The pain can range from moderate to severe and will usually start in the buttocks. If the pain does not extend beyond the knee, the problem may not be true sciatica. For people who have sciatica for a long time, the pain eventually centers in the buttocks and the back of the leg and the actual back pain may diminish.

Treatment for the nerve pain caused by sciatica varies depending on the severity of the case. Many cases of sciatic nerve pain go away on their own over time. Fairly conservative treatments like rest and limiting activities that may aggravate the condition, combined with anti-inflammatory medication are usually the first treatment alternative. Strengthening and stretching exercises as well as supervised physical therapy work well to help sufferers return to their regular activities.

Surgery is usually the last option when all other more traditional treatments have failed. But there are now endoscopic surgical procedures that can repair a herniated disc and relieve the nerve pain. These replace the much more invasive open back surgeries and pain and discomfort are greately reduced along with recovery time.

Why were the Circassians ethnically cleansed from Russia?

What was the result of the Myall Creek massacre?

The Myall Creek massacre, in which a group of armed stockmen rounded up 40 - 50 Aboriginal women, children and elderly men at Myall Creek Station in New South Wales and murdered 28 of them, was followed by a series of trials.

The first trial was held on 15 November 1838, and twelve white settlers were charged with murder, but acquitted. A second trial was held on November 26, and this time the twelve men were charged with the murder of just one Aboriginal child. They were found guilty, and seven of the men were hanged in December under the authority of Governor George Gipps.

At the time, the colonists were angry at the retribution the government handed to the settlers, and there was a huge backlash against Governor Gipps. General opinion of that time was that the Aborigines were pests who should be exterminated.

On 10 June 2000, a memorial was dedicated to the victims of the massacre. An annual memorial service has been held on 10th June at the site ever since.
