The systematic mass murder of six million Jews perpetrated by Nazi Germany shortly before and during World War II.
I never knew him, or any of my other relatives who died in the Shoah. But I would gladly dump every ounce of that gold into the ocean, just to give them a decent burial.
A mass murder.
From Hebrew שׁוֹאָה (šōʾā, “catastrophe”).
