"Holocaust Memorial Day" (HMD) is a national commemoration day in many of the 46 countries that endorsed the Stockholm Declaration [1] of 27 January 2000 (not to be confused with the 1972 UN declaration on the Human environment of the same name). In 2006 the United Nations General Assembly designated 27 January - the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau by the Soviet Red Army as "International Holocaust Remembrance Day" [2]. Although the Official Narrative's of HMD's and their respective promotional efforts in individual countries vary in their mention and inclusion of human wartime suffering other than that of the Jews of Nazi Germany, the alleged uniqueness of "The Holocaust" and the primacy of Jewish suffering is maintained in all of them.

HMD in the UK
The principle promoting organisation in the UK is the registered charity, "The Holocaust Memorial Day Trust" (HMDT) which explains it thus:
A commemoration day in the UK dedicated to the remembrance of those who suffered in The Holocaust, under Nazi Persecution, and in subsequent genocides in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia (Srebrenica) and Darfur. It was first held in January 2001 and has been on the same date every year since. [3] [4]
"Subsequent genocides"
The inclusion of "subsequent genocides" doubtless succeeds in making the occasion more inclusive but, quite apart from the problems with the Official Narrative of The Holocaust itself, as outlined on its Wikispooks page and the documents linked therefrom, the selection of events - from the vast list that, on HMD criteria most certainly qualify as "Genocides" - is bizarre. There is no mention of the 3 million German civilians from among the 15 or so million expelled from their ancestral homes after WWII had ended, that were killed in the most brutal and barbaric ways imaginable; No mention of the 1 million or so German Wermacht personnel who died from starvation and exposure in allied POW camps after WWII had ended; no mention of the 5 million Korean, 3 million Vietnamese and 1 million+ Middle-Eastern civilians killed by western bombing campaigns post WWII; and especially no mention of the Palestinian genocide through 1948 that was midwife to the modern Jewish state of Israel and which continues to this day.
It is clear that, in deference to what is essentially [Judaic power]] western populations are required to be extremely selective and politically correct in their remembrance of the civilian casualties of war.
