So, the statement, "Whether the Holocaust was natural or unnatural." begs the answer, unnatural because the Holocaust was mass murder and as you have said

No doubt that the Holocaust involved murder. There was a difference of opinion as to whether it was natural or unnatural so the question allowed for both answers.

what part would be natural?
The killings, according to yoyo. His theories include the notion that what's natural is whatever a nation decides for itself. His reaction to the Holocaust question however is a study in avoidance.

Untruth in regards to natural/unnatural, the grounds for your theory but now, apparently, not.
I have avoided nothing in regards to the Holocaust, by the way, which I've already discussed a-plenty. And yes, killing is perfectly natural, but I do not attribute to "natural" the sort of ethical dimension that you, despite your protestations otherwise, do. Your mischaracterization of my comments on the roots of ethics in the ethos/mores of a people is typical, so distorted that it constitutes another untruth.
