"World War II obliterated the Jewish population.."′ Really? -Wetman (talk) 13:51, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Jewish population of Slovakia 1930 - 137,000. Jewish population of Slovakia 1945 - 24,000. Looks like something happened. The text says 'almost obliterated', not, as you quote, 'obliterated'. I have added a cite. Thanks.--Smerus (talk) 15:32, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
