Well, the French villages were over civilian resistance in wartime. I'm Ashkenazi Jewish myself, and I don't like to be the guy invoking The Holocaust at every opportunity because there's plenty of other demographics usually overlooked, and The Holocaust itself wasn't as civilian war casualties, it was state-sponsored murder, and the topic at-hand is civilians getting killed through the war itself, thus invoking The Holocaust would skew the stats on wartime civilian casualties if it was to be included relative to more recent conflicts. Commonly, the victims are counted separately: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_casualties https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_casualties But yes, it's horrifying, and I find it difficult to understand the true scale of. I've been in stadiums with tens of thousands of people, that certainly seems like a lot of lives, a lot of families, a lot of humanity. Hundreds of thousands or millions? Yeah, it boggles my mind, and it really wasn't very long ago whatsoever.
