This was actually a discussion I was in on the Marvel movies of all things. They updated Iron Man's origin by moving it from Vietnam to the Middle East, and the question then became "Well, how do you update Magneto's origin without the Holocaust?" and I was like "There's always another genocide... Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia... pick one."
