Sure there were concentration camps and Einsatzgruppen conducting mass killings of all sorts of people before then, but wiping out the Jews wasn't official state policy until Dec 41. The state trying to exterminate the Jews is the Holocaust bit. To use your example, people were experimenting with rockets for years but the moon program started when Kennedy made putting a man on the moon govt policy. You can't say "nah, the Nazis had V2 rockets in 1945" because that wasn't part of the "putting a man on the moon" program.

Fuck, always the Nazis
