Exactly. Most importantly, if they were not burned it is by definition not a holocaust, even if it were 6 billion.
As I said, it's the same argument. It's not that no one died. It's that it was never at the scale, there was never gas chambers, and the evidence was never destroyed. Total Jewish deaths during WWII was roughly 300,000. Their population globally grew or stayed the same.

I don't understand this statement of yours. I'm not being difficult, I'm literally too ignorant to understand your point. Is it the "fire" part of the etymology of the word "holocaust"* that you are referring to?
*note my use is the lowercase which is the common word and definition, not the capital word which is used to refer to the WWII Holocaust.

In which case, "by fire" is not a required definition for either the common holocaust term or The Holocaust term. It just needs to be the mass loss of life (definitions 4 and 3, respectively).
Their population globally grew or stayed the same.
This is very interesting. Interesting since not a single major source backs up this claim (but most of those sources are well known to be tainted). Do you have a credible source of this? Everyone is whining/celebrating about the decline of the Jewish population. Everyone.
Holocaust is Greek. It means, "whole burnt offering." If there were no mass incineration, by definition it wasn't a holocaust. That's the word which makes it magically charged and somehow makes the 20-40 million killed by Stalin insignificant.

What do you mean, every major source makes up this claim. This is backed by both migration and census data. Hitler himself even had an agreement with the Zionists to export Jews out of Europe. No idea what you've been looking at, but there is literally zero doubt the Jewish population remained largely unchanged or grew.

But that's not what we are talking about. We are referring to the 3rd and 4th definitions of holocaust. In fact, none of the 4 definitions mean what your definition means. This is why I mentioned "etymology" because words change use over time. More specifically, no one is referring to burning offerings when they use the word "holocaust" unless they specifically clarify that they are talking about burnt offerings. That's how much the word "holocaust" has changed since the quite old and outdated use of that term.

It does not. It says the opposite. Literally all of them. Not a single source anywhere says the global Jewish population is greater than before WWII.
I can't even find this claim on known racist sources.
