Jewish students at the University of Maryland responded after pro-Palestinians called for 'intifada' and chalked 'Holocaust 2.0' on their campus.

There is a reason that many Jews have never been comfortable with direct comparisons with the Holocaust. Historically, the Nazis managed to conduct the systematic trivialization and destruction of Jews, the disabled, and others on such a massive scale under the guise of a governmental norm that they threatened Jewish existence.

The atrocities committed as a matter of course during the twin experiments by Joseph Mengele in Auschwitz, for example, a highly trained physician with a Ph.D. in anthropology, revealed that depravity can exist simultaneously with an advanced civilization.

In fact, as Gerald Posner has detailed, Mengele managed to return to normal life in South America after the war with a seemingly clear conscience.
