The Reality of Evil & The Justice of God

The Nazis' attempt to exterminate God's chosen people, the Jews, reminds us of the reality of absolute moral evil, in spite of the attempts of -

(a) moral relativists to deny absolute good & evil
(b) historical revisionists to deny the historical reality of the Holocaust and other genocidal atrocities.

Q2  If God exists, how can he allow such evil to go unpunished?
