They fought the war for the kingdom. Before actual beginning of the war Arjuna, one of the five Pandava brother and greatest Tantra archer started thinking that most of the 180 million people were his kith and kin. He was full of grief and thought that killing of such a huge number of people from his race be avoided and told Lord Krishna who was driving his chariot that he would not participate in the war to stop killing. Lord Krishna explained him Geeta the greatest knowledge of God on this surface. Let us see the arguments God made that pertains to tragedies like the Holocaust.
The matured people never grieve for the deaths nor are happy when somebody is born. The billions of lives take birth and die for different reasons. Human go through the stages of life like birth, childhood, teenage, youth, old age and death. Soul does not die, it changes the bodies like one changes the clothes. It gives up old body and then again acquires new one. Annihilation is the nature of human body; it is inevitably destroyed sooner or later. Since the soul does not die or take birth, the birth and the death of the body of the person is superficial. Nobody neither takes birth nor dies. The invisible soul is mistaken as body and the body is always mistaken as a soul. The difference is commonly unknown. The people which we think will be killed or we understand are killed are already killed by myself (God), it's only a matter of sometime that they appear alive. Innumerable are the apparent reasons of deaths. It is useless to grieve for the dead people.
In short, this philosophy would have viewed the Holocaust as the deaths in war. No doubt the number of Jews was 55%, but there were almost same in number the other people like Christians also whose hue and cry was not abnormally loud. If the 11 million people would have not died in the Holocaust, they would have died their natural death in the due course of time, but nobody escaped the death. Singling out a particular community was a mere coincidence and not a deliberate purpose of God because others also died in almost equal number. The people were physically and mentally tortured before death. Many people have to go thru the extreme mental and physical torture before death, like lying on the bed for years. If one thinks about world as a whole the number of unfortunate deaths could be in millions every year. The circumstances are different and the pains are different. Reasons are different and the people are different. The death is sure. One man's decision was responsible for the death of millions in the Holocaust. In Mahabharat, the one man was Duryodhana, who recklessly decided to wage a war and became a reason for the death of 180 million people.
How a hatred for the particular group or particular community enters the mind of a person who is reason for the deaths of many? This is question, which is well explained on other pages of this website. This is not included here for fear of length of this article.

Further in Geeta Lord Krishna explains to Arjuna as to how the good or bad takes place on this earth. If one understands the meaning of this stanza (3/28), he would understand all the mysterious happenings in the world including the great tragedies.

First given here is the translation from the famous work of Swami Prabhupada of ISKON . In the opinion of the author this and all other work of Swami Prabhupada is useless if one has to understand who Krishna is and what is God. However, for the devotional path this is good. The author has written 150 pages book on this stanza, in his mother tongue.
Translation of the above two Sanskrit lines :
?One who is in knowledge of the Absolute Truth, O mighty-armed, does not engage himself in the senses and sense gratification, knowing well the differences between work in devotion and work for fruitive results?
The principles are briefly explained here for the benefit of the readers :
Lord Krishna explains to Arjuna that there are two modes or parts of the nature, Property part (Guna) and the Activity Part.(Karma). Property part contains 5 elements, 4 kinds of mind, 5 sense organs, 5 active organs and 5 properties of the five elements. (see the chart).
