Did six million really die?

I don't think it really matters if 2, 3, 4 or 6 million Jews died, it was a lot. What I don't understand though, is why they have special sympathy rights when 24 million Russians died, including 14 million civilians. If any nation deserves unique sympathy, it's the Russian people, not the Jews.

Some historians calculate that Genghis Khan slaughtered 50 million people, lets give those a passing thought.

Look, I know that millions of people died. Members of my own family died. That is enough for me.
