Were with you up to that bit with holocaust. Do not lessen what germany did, even if by trying to point out similiary evil stuff was happening.
The "Jewish relocation" was wrapped up in a lot of pretty lies to get the German people to swallow it. Thankfully, the people at the time realised the need to document exactly how fucking bad it actually was. Otherwise, we would have a lot of people arguing that it "wasn't actually that bad".
It's an uncomfortable truth how well they camouflaged what they were doing, and how easily the German people (and the rest of the world) accepted it.
