I did not say it was incorrect. I said it was not appropriate to single out one single group of a disparate grouping of victims. Why single out anyone, what purpose does that serve?

There is no definitive evidence about the exact number of inmates killed, and therefore there will be no definitive evidence about the proportional make up. Many records were destroyed and what has survived is from many second hand sources.

Therefore the figures seem to vary widely: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mauthausen-Gusen_concentration...

But I am not writing for Washington Post and so my comments will not be widely read. So why do you ask for sources from me but not this article.

Because there are already are sources that show that the article statement was just fine, and because I was quite astonished that you would object to that statement on the grounds you mentioned.
