1 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered unto thy people….
7 And they warred against the Midianites, as the Lord commanded Moses; and they slew all the males.
8 And they slew the kings of Midian, beside the rest of them that were slain; namely, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, five kings of Midian: Balaam also the son of Beor they slew with the sword.
9 And the children of Israel took all the women of Midian captives, and their little ones, and took the spoil of all their cattle, and all their flocks, and all their goods.
10 And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their goodly castles, with fire.
11 And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and of beasts.
12 And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil unto Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by Jordan near Jericho.
13 And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
14 And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle.
15 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
16 Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the Lord in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the Lord.
17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
18 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
19 And do ye abide without the camp seven days: whosoever hath killed any person, and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify both yourselves and your captives on the third day, and on the seventh day.
20 And purify all your raiment, and all that is made of skins, and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood.
21 And Eleazar the priest said unto the men of war which went to the battle, This is the ordinance of the law which the Lord commanded Moses….
25 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
26 Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of beast, thou, and Eleazar the priest, and the chief fathers of the congregation:
27 And divide the prey into two parts; between them that took the war upon them, who went out to battle, and between all the congregation:
28 And levy a tribute unto the Lord of the men of war which went out to battle….
31 And Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the Lord commanded Moses.
32 And the booty, being the rest of the prey which the men of war had caught, was six hundred thousand and seventy thousand and five thousand sheep,
33 And threescore and twelve thousand beeves,
34 And threescore and one thousand asses,
35 And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of woman that had not known man by lying with him….
40 And the persons were sixteen thousand; of which the Lord's tribute was thirty and two persons.
41 And Moses gave the tribute, which was the Lord's heave offering, unto Eleazar the priest, as the Lord commanded Moses….
47 Even of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one portion of fifty, both of man and of beast, and gave them unto the Levites, which kept the charge of the tabernacle of the Lord; as the Lord commanded Moses.

10 When thou comest nigh unto a city to fight against it, then proclaim peace unto it….
13 And when the Lord thy God hath delivered it into thine hands, thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the sword:
14 But the women, and the little ones, and the cattle, and all that is in the city, even all the spoil thereof, shalt thou take unto thyself; and thou shalt eat the spoil of thine enemies, which the Lord thy God hath given thee.
15 Thus shalt thou do unto all the cities which are very far off from thee, which are not of the cities of these nations.
16 But of the cities of these people, which the Lord thy God doth give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth

And what about the initial establishment of the kingdom of David?

My point is; We are all both guilty and victims of genocide in one form or another. Why then is this particular one getting so much attention? And why are we sending an 89 year old to germany who has already been tried? And why is it specifically illegal to deny the jewish holocaust in europe? What is going on? As far as visibility, 20% tutsis horrifically murdered in rwanda and all over the papers. Very, very visible while it's going on. During the jewish holocaust, the general public did not know of it's occurrence.

Scale: 100,000,000
Orchestration: Specific wars ordained by england, spain, the united states
Target: they were called "indian" wars. indian scalps were worth money

"There is absolutely no doubt. The greatest genocidal holocaust in human history is in fact the quasi-total extermination of the Native Indians in the New World.
Starting in 1492, Cristobal Colon (Christopher Columbus) and the Spaniards & Conquistadors, exterminated at 100%, all the Indians from the hundred of Caribbean Islands leaving no survivors behind. Then the holocaust reached South, Central & North America.
They were burned alive, had their hands, feet, noses, ears, cut off. They were devoured by large flesh eating war dogs called Perros de presa de Canario & Perros de presa Alano. European diseases also took their toil on a great many.
Some of these Spaniards in the New World, took an immense pleasure in killing them for their entertainment. Many games were invented in the numerous ways of killing them for fun.
The Catholic Spaniards looked down on them as if they were no more than mere animals of burden, or they were said to be the decendants of Cain, the biblical killer of his brother Abel, and their killing was therefore wholly justified. They were also enslaved and worked to death in silver & gold mines.
An estimated 100 million are said historically, to have been killed, leaving today only 3% of this race."

Scale- doesn't need much explanation, and yes, there have been many atrocities larger in death toll.

Orchestration- There had never been such a highly concerted effort to eliminate an entire people–I'll get to this later–from the Earth. This is reflected in the documentation of 1942's Wansee Conference, the fact that the designs had to be commissioned to facilitate the pace and scale of the murder and then seen in to fruition, the fact that war materiel was actually diverted from the front to deliver the Jews to the camps even though it was known this would hamper the war effort (and these orders came from the top), and myriad other ways.

Target- People are hated for every conceivable reason. Most of the time, however, it is because of something they believe in, something they do, or something they are thought to do. In this case, it was mostly ethnic hatred. And ethnicity is not voluntary or a matter of choice. I am a Jew and I will always be a Jew and this is iniscapable. I am an agnostic, I don't practice, and I was even born of a shixa (non-Jewish mother), which means to many Jewish people that I am not even one of them. But to Hitler and the Nazis, none of this mattered. It was that Jewish blood, no matter how little, that made me inferior and part of the problem. In other words, no matter who one really was, if they had one drop, they were the enemy. Something in them was thought to be fundamentally, inescapably flawed, something that rotted them to the core and accounted for all of the terrible qualities that have been assigned to my people throughout history. Jews were targeted–all of them– as a culture, a people. And they were targeted for total eradication in such a way as the world had never seen. This happened in front of our very eyes in the age of radio, the printed word, and film. So it was visible no other atrocity before.

And thus, unfortunately, it is very different.
