A new survey suggests that many Asians, Africans, Middle Easterners, young people, Muslims, and Hindus believe that facts about the genocide have been distorted.
一份新的調查顯示有許多的亞洲人,非洲人,中東人,年輕人,穆斯林,印度徒相信有關大屠殺的事實真相是被歪曲的?

這個世界滿是不相信猶太大屠殺的人

Only 54 percent of the world's population has heard of the Holocaust.
只有百分之54的世界人口是相信大屠殺的存在。
This is the most staggering statistic in a new survey by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) of more than 53,000 people in over 100 countries, conducted by First International Resources. But that figure speaks to only those who have heard of it: Only a third of the world's population believe the genocide has been accurately described in historical accounts. Some said they thought the number of people who died has been exaggerated; others said they believe it's a myth. Thirty percent of respondents said it's probably true that "Jews still talk too much about what happened to them in the Holocaust."
百分之54的人口,這份最新的令人震驚的調查數據是來自ADL組織在100個國家關於53000名受訪者所做的調查。由第一國際資源組織進行統計分析,但這份調查只針對聽過大屠殺傳聞的人。只有三分一的世界人口相信大屠殺是真實存在於歷史資料中。有人說大屠殺中死亡的人口可能遭到了誇大,百分之三十的受訪者表示猶太人目前還在過多的談論他們有關大屠殺磨難的歷史,所以大屠殺是有可能存在的。
Seventy years after the liberation of Auschwitz, two-thirds of the world's population don't know the Holocaust happened—or they deny it.
奧辛維斯集中營的磨難已經過去了70年了,三分之二的世界人口並不知道大屠殺是存在的,或者持否認的態度。
These beliefs follow some unexpected patterns, too. The Middle East and North Africa had the largest percentage of doubters, with only 8 percent of respondents reporting that they had heard of the genocide and believed descriptions of it were accurate. But only 12 percent of respondents in sub-Saharan Africa said the same, and only 23 percent in Asia. People in these groups were likely to say they believed the number of deaths has been exaggerated—just over half of Middle Easterners and a third of Asians and Africans think the body count has been distorted over time.
這種模式信仰理念是令人不可思議的。中東和北非地區的有關質疑者是最多的,只有百分8的受訪者報告顯示,他們相信史料所描述中大屠殺是真實存在的。薩特阿拉伯以南的受訪者只有百分之12有相同的觀點。在亞洲只有百分之23。在另一部分的受訪人羣中,他們認爲大屠殺的死亡人數是被誇大的。只有一半的中東人和三分一的亞洲人,非洲人相信死亡人數的統計在過去是被歪曲事實的。

When the data is sliced by religious groups, the results are even more surprising: Hindus were most likely to believe that the number of Holocaust deaths has been exaggerated. Muslims followed closely, and those two groups were distantly trailed by Christians, Buddhists, and those with no religion. In no coincidence, Hindus and Muslims were also significantly less likely to have heard of the Holocaust.
當參考數據被細分到宗教羣體的時候,那麼結果更是大大的超出意外,印度教和穆斯林是最願意相信死亡人數是被誇大的。印度教是最多比例穆斯林次之。而基督教,佛教徒和無神論者的比例被他們遠遠甩開。無獨有偶及顯而易見的印度教和穆斯林不樂於談及大屠殺。

In almost every religious group, people younger than 65 were much more likely to say they believe that facts about the Holocaust have been distorted, and they were less likely to know what the Holocaust is.
在大部分的宗教人羣中,65歲以下的人是最願認爲大屠殺的歷史是歪曲的,他們也對所謂的大屠殺沒有了解的興趣。

The report by the ADL, a Jewish NGO that campaigns against anti-Semitism and discrimination, also covers the prevalence of other anti-Semitic attitudes, including beliefs about Jews' allegiance to Israel, influence in media and business, and likeability. Although the prevalence of Holocaust ignorance and denial was just one small aspect of the survey, it illuminates a powerful fact: As the memory of the genocide grows fainter, attitudes toward Jews—and Israel—are changing. The fate of the Jewish people in the twentieth century was largely centered around the Holocaust: the anti-Semitism that facilitated it, the loss it wrought, and the reflection it prompted. As that history becomes more distant, it's unclear what will animate the Jewish community—and attitudes toward it—moving forward.
這份報告來自ADL,一個猶太的民間活動組織反擊了關於此報告的反猶歧視,和普遍存在的有關猶太人忠誠信仰以色列的論調。影響了猶太人在媒體和貿易的對外好感度。雖然這種普遍對大屠殺的無知否認只是對一小方面的調查。但卻揭露了令人震驚的事實。隨着大屠殺的記憶逐漸被遺忘,人們對以色列和猶太人的態度開始轉變。20世紀的猶太人命運是和大屠殺緊緊相連的。反猶太主義在當時盛行並造成了猶太人大量滅絕,伴隨這段歷史帶來的反思。隨着時間漸行漸遠,善不清楚什麼樣的原因和外界態度促使了猶太人團體的進一步舉動。
Depressingly, the study does hint at the way most people get their information about Jews and the Holocaust today:
