Interesting that this is the supposed source of the four million figure, 
instead of the Soviet War Crimes Commisson, who came to the same number 
via rectified coefficients or some sort of mathematical extrapolation.

Her choice of words is also interesting -- in "this gas chamber"?  
Presumably what was said was "these gas chambers," and Dr. Bimko probably 
misunderstood.  But then she may have misunderstood the context of the 
"four million" number as well.

Well, obviously because the defense was in on the Zionist Conspiracy!

Of course she did not see it, because no such records existed.

It would be interesting to try to track down Dr. Ada Bimko -- has she 
testified at any other trials?
