Good point HD - the fact that Jewish deaths represent some 7.5% of the (high end) estimate of WW2 really is grossly disproportionate given the tiny % of the world population they constitute.
The fact that 80 Million people died and 50 Million were civilians means that extracting bizarre statistics and trying to make points 80 years later is simply a fickle statistician's historical retro-grief. Very low percentile of Hindus killed in Clydebank Blitz. Very few Islamic types beheaded during the decapitation competitions held by the Japanese troops during the Rape of Nanking a few years before WW2. Large Jewish populations concentrations in some Eastern European Towns and Cities. Mostly Scottish People killed in Clydebank.
Anyone can try and make something of statistics.
You have to back up and see the bigger picture. 80 Million people died and we must never forget.
BAE just clocked £6 Billion profit from recent arms sales of "depleted" Uranium enhanced weaponry to the Saudis. It has all been dropped on civilians in Yemen. The ground is poisoned. That is what "depleted" Uranium does and what it is actually for.
