The same place as mentioned by [supposely] Commandant Hoess of Auschwitz in his "confession", was a death camp. But Wolzec doesn't exist. Hoess, one would expect would know of Poland, but the interrogators knew nothing of Poland. But 2 people mentioning the same non-existant place, an amazing concidence.....

None of them. Pressac "suggests" "may be". [Same criteria as Pressac; I 'suggest' this 'may be' a forgery.] The only crematoria working at this date was Krema No 2. Krema No 2 has 5 furnaces with 3 retorts 15 in all. [cf Reitlinger [the Final Solution (1968 ) page 159] Current capacity 10,000 according to this report. The SS estimated the total cremation capacity at 4,756 in 24 working hours (letter from SS-Sturmbannfuehrer Jahrling to SS-General Kammler, June 25 1943, see "Auschwitz: Technique and operation of the gas chambers" - J.C Pressac) Question 3. What happened between those dates to reduce capacity by over 5,000? You failed to answer this question, Mr Karen. Question 4. Current capacity of the resettlement action 10,000 in 24 hours. Please explain how the current capacity of Crematorium No 2 which is rated as 1440 and that at Auschwitz I of 340 in 24 hours in June) ie 1780 can equal a current capacity of 10,000 in 24 hours in May? > Yes, this is an exaggeration. So the report is wrong on the 10 crematoria, its figures are no where near another report a month later, 5 times wrong on the current capacity, and the number of steps is wrong as well, and where was this report found? At his house? [I recall that Fleming actually says that. I'ill check] That's SO lucky. And this document is entitled " Resettlement of Jews" which is "code" for gassing, just like "specially handled" "in readiness for transport" "seperately quartered" "removal" are also "codes" for gassing. Who devised all these 'codewords'? The exterminationists, interpret all these phrases and others to mean gassing, and suggest the nazis used them as "code" for gassing. So why does Himmler need to have it explained in his report? It is just amazing how lucky it is that this report explains "resettlement". Is there a reply from Himmler? I very much doubt it. Is there any cross-references to it, from any other offices? I would very much like to see this report.

I only posted this friday, and on Sunday you say I am silent. Kramer, according to you, was deliberately starving the detainees, and was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Jewish detainees by using a fumigant to kill them in the morgues [code for gas chambers] at Birkenau. So what does Kramer do? He arranges a truce with the allies because a typhus epidemic has broken out and remains behind in accordence with the terms of the truce.

I want in a crime as big as this to find explicit evidence. What one does find, said Irving, is documents pointing in the other direction. For example, in the spring of 1942, Hans Lammers, who was something like the German Prime Minister telephoned the Secretary of State of the German Ministry of Justice, who made a note of their conversation. Lammers said that Hitler had repeatedly said that he wanted the solution of the Jewish problem postponed until after the war.

Lagace has disposed of more than 10,000 bodies since 1976, and cremated more than 1000 since 1984. He has handled victims of fire, accident, and disease, and has seen every stage of bodily composition. He was accorded EXPERT status at the Zundel trial. Lagace next explained some calculations he had made after studying the plans for the 46 retorts at Birkenau.(Auschwitz II) Christie [defence counsel for Zundel] asked him how these compared to the plans for his own crematorium. Well, said Lagace, When I first looked at these [Birkenau plans], I was amazed." The specifications were almost identical to his own retort, including the unusually high 45-foot stack. Based on the afterburner design, he added, it is obvious they were concerned with environmental effects. There would be no smoke and no odor." Lagace estimated that the 46 retorts at Birkenau could handle about 184 bodies daily, or four apiece. But, asked Christie, what about Raul Hilberg's estimate of 4,400 cremations per day at Birkenau? Well," said Lagace, that's preposterous, in my eyes. It's beyond the realm of reality." Christie asked if operating 24 hours a day would raise the output. Just the opposite, insisted Lagace, it would shorten the lifespan of the refractory" and create costly delays. Christie read to Lagace from Hilberg's account of a period in 1944 when about 10,000 Jews a day were allegedly being gassed at Birkenau, and asked again if the 46 retorts could have cremated 4,400 of the victims daily. Lagace: It would be ludicrous to say something like that. dkeren@world.std.com (Daniel Keren) writes: "Well, this "EXPERT" is either lying or he has no idea what he's talking about......" Well, Keren knows better. Keren is a expert. For example, Keren certainly knows about abuse. He's a expert on it. Especially self-abuse.

On the bottom of the pits the human fat was collected and poured back into the the fire with buckets to hasten the cremations. Survivors reports that children were sometimes tossed alive into the inferno. The rotten remains were cleaned up once in a while with flame throwers. Although the corpses burned slowly during rain or misty weather, the pits were found to be the cheapest and most efficent method of body disposal. In August 1944, when over 20,000 corpses had to be burned on some days, the open pits broke the bottleneck." [Page 629 The Destruction of the European Jews (1961) by Raul Hilberg] NB I recall that these "long" pits were not near Krema II, but to the North of the camp. > Or maybe you think they just held big barbecues for the prisoners - > after all, many revisionists have tried to tell us Auschwitz was a > perfectly nice place to spend the war - heck, it even had a swimming pool! > (To clarify: it did.

Highlights of his slide show of Auschwitz I included the camp swimming pool, the theatre, the brothel, the "secret museum", the "Black Wall" and the many alterations in the crematorium and alleged gas chamber. * the swimming pool is visible even in some of the allies wartime aerial photos. This reflects the survivors' literature which describes water polo matches. When Felderer told Piper [official at Auschwitz museum], "Now this swimming pool must have been used used by the SS men," Piper replied, No, they swam elsewhere, this pool was used for the rehabilitation and recreation of patients among the internees."

So let's use Karen's figures to work out the crematory rates for Birkenau, after all, he knows better than Ivan Lagace, an "intellectual zero" who was granted Expert status on Cremation at the Zundel trial, ["Lagace estimated that the 46 retorts at Birkenau could handle about 184 bodies daily, or four apiece." (Holocaust on Trial Page 239)] Lagace is obviously a Neo-Nazi liar or Neo-Nazi ignoramus or more likely - a Neo-Nazi lying ignoramus. There was 46 retorts at Auschwitz II (Birkenau). At the best possible rate [on 1951 figures], flat out with no problems, no maintenance, no warming up, no cooling down, no tea breaks, etc at 30 minutes per corpse the 46 retorts at Birkenau would have cremated:- 46 * 24 * 2 = 2208 corpses a day. A bit short of the SS estimate of 4,756 a day. [letter from SS-SturmbannfuehrerJahrling to SS-General Kammler, June 25 1943, see "Auschwitz:Technique and operation of the gas chambers" - J.C Pressac,the Beate Klarsfeld Foundation, NY, 1989, p. 247] And a little short of the Polish Commission of Inquiry's estimate of 12,000 a day. [The Final Solution [1968]; Reitlinger page 159] And even Hoess the commandant of Auschwitz, who seems to have a lot of problems with numbers -------- 16,000 a day. [The Final Solution [1968]; Reitlinger page 159] And just a little bit short of inmate Olga lengel's estimate of 17,280 a day. ("Five chimmeys" P68 cited in; Destruction of the European Jews 1961 Hilberg page 629) And just a little bit short of Dr Nysizli's estimate of 20,000 a day. [The Final Solution [1968]; Reitlinger page 159] At the next possible rate [on 1951 figures], flat out with no problems, no maintenance, no warming up, no cooling down, and no tea breaks, etc at 45 minutes per corpse the 46 retorts at Birkenau would have cremated:- 46 * 32 = 1472 corpses per day. A bit short of the SS estimate of ------------------ 4,756 a day. And a little short of the Polish Commission's estimate of 12,000 a day. Hoess the commandant of Auschwitz, -------- 16,000 a day. Inmate Olga lengel's estimate --------------------------- 17,280 a day. Dr Nysizli's estimate ----------------------------------- 20,000 a day. However, these were 1951 figures, for the 1940s, let's make it a hour per corpse:- 46 * 24 = 1104 a day. A bit short of the SS estimate of ------------------ 4,756 a day. And a little short of the Polish Commission's estimate of 12,000 a day. Hoess the commandant of Auschwitz, he's wrong again------ 16,000 a day. Inmate Olga lengel's estimate --------------------------- 17,280 a day. Dr Nysizli's estimate ----------------------------------- 20,000 a day. However, let's not be a intellectual zero like Roberts or Baron, and complain that even these figures are unrealistic, let's remember that the Nazis [or the Jewish Sonderkommando who actually operated the retorts, who worked hard and were highly traine , and were next for gassing] stuck 3 corpses in at a time, in every retort, right through those 24 hours, despite the fact the retorts were designed for single corpse cremation, and did it flat out with no problems, no maintenance, no warming up, no cooling down, etc. Now let us IGNORE the idea that this might take 3 times as long, and say it will take the SAME time as for 1 corpse, as everyone knows it will, otherwise we may be classed as intellectual zeros, and we wouldn't want that would we. 1) Best possible rate [1951] 46 * 48 = 6624. [10 minutes per corpse] 2) Next best rate [1951] 46 * 32 = 4416. [15 minutes per corpse] 3) 1940's rate 46 * 24 = 3312. [20 minutes per corpse] At last the forged SS letter estimate is in range. ------ 4,756 a day. But a little short of the Polish Commission's estimate of 12,000 a day. Hoess the commandant of Auschwitz, he's wrong again------ 16,000 a day. Inmate Olga lengel's estimate --------------------------- 17,280 a day. Dr Nysizli's estimate ----------------------------------- 20,000 a day. Now that's better, that SS estimate now FITS. Back to sleep.

His statement had been prepared in German had been submitted to the Military Governor of the US Zone of Occupation in English translation. Since no more than a handful of Americans have seen this or any other German "war criminal's" side of the story, I reproduce it in its entirety, as follows: I, Gustav PETRAT, born 12 November 1924 in Wirballen/Litauen [Lithuania], presently in Landsberg/Lech, make the following sworn statement after I have been informed that this statement is to be submitted to the Military Governor of the US Zone and that an false statement may be severely punished. l. In May 1944, on account of my wound, I was transferred to the guard personnel of the Mauthausen concentration camp and served there as dog leader with the 16th Guard Company. My rank was Corporal (Rottenfuehrer) in the Armed (Waffen) SS. [paragraphs 2-8 already posted] 9. On 15th July 1947 I recieved a general charge sheet and was transferred with my co-accused to the Bunker I, camp Dachau. It was impossible for me to procure any exonerating material there. One was cut off from the outside world. Letters to relatives or acquaintances in which something was said about witnesses or the approaching trial were so cut up that the receiver received only scraps from which he could glean nothing. For that reason it was made impossible for me to procure any defense material. Requests for special letters to witnesses or prior reports to the defense lawyer were fruitless. Already in little things they were making the procuring of exonerating material impossible. Also the time before the beginning of the trial was far too short to obtain any material. 10. On 6 August 1947 the trial began, and lasted unti 21 August. 11. The prosecution witnesses had every support of the prosecuting authorities. When they were shown to be lying, up jumped the prosecutor, Mr. Lindberg, and accused the defense lawyer of intimidating the witnesses and trying to make out that they were liars. 12. In reality, the opposite was the truth. Defense witnesses were intimidated by the braying of the prosecutor or were branded as false. It happened that defense witnesses were threatened and beaten by foreign former prisoners so that the former had no more interest in appearing for the defense. They were afraid that they too would be accused of something, which the foreign prisoners were quite capable of, as they hated everything German and were out for revenge. What happened next? Well, it gets much much worse......

"In many cases gas chambers had been used." In a Top Secret telegram Goebbel's ministry asked Hans Frank for an explanation. Via New York, the same report reached Himmler; writing to Gestapo chief Muller on November 30, he called it a "very interesting [press]announcement about a memorandum written by Dr. [Stephen F.] Wise [President of the American Jewish Congress] in September 1942." and commented: "Given the scale of the Jewish migration, I'm not surprised that such rumours crop up somewhere in the world. We both know there's a high death rate among the Jews who are put to work. But you are to guarantee to me that at each location the cadavers of these deceased Jews are either burned or buried, and that nothing else can happen with the cadavers wherever they are. You are to investigate at once in all quarters to find out whether there have been any such abuses as the -no doubt mendacious- rumors disseminated around the world claim. All such abuses are to be reported to me on the SS oath of honor" (Us National Archives No T175/68/4325). Page 820 Hitlers War [latest edition] by David Irving. Think on this. Himmler has heard of a claim that gassing is taking place made by Dr Wise, President of the World Jewish Congress. He gets [Obergruppenfuhrer Heinrich] Muller, head of the State Secret Police to investigate. Question: Why should Himmler get Muller "to investigate at once in all quarters to find out whether there have been any such abuses as the - no doubt mendacious rumours" claim, if he is gassing and murdering Jews by the million?

This was the claim which British writer David Irving made in Munich in April 1990: a remark for which the German government fined him DM30,000 ($22,000) and banned him from Germany in 1993. The Court of Human Rights in Strasboug has now agreed to hear the appeal his lawyers against Germany. The largely Jewish-owned French magazine L'Express, which is comparable with the US magazine Time and with Germany's Der Spiegel, slated in a well-researched article (titled: "Auschswitz: The Memoir ot Evil ) appearing under the by-line of anti-revisionist historian Eric Conan that the authorities at Auschwitz have now conceded the fraud - but they also admit that for them there is now no going back. The admission represents a major vindication for Professor Robert Faurisson, who was the first public figure to point to the fraud, back in 1976. Unable to accept the truth, his opponents have subjected him to a reign of terror since then. In one incident a gang of thugs, who were immediately denounced by the rest of the Jewish community, poured acid into Faurisson's eyes, and broke his upper and Iower jaws almost beyond repair. ....Now the Auschwitz gas chamber legend is finally crumbling too. Just as the leading revisionists promised it would. In his article Eric Conan states that there been many blatant falsifications in the Auschwitz and Birkenau concentration camp sites. In particular he reveals that at the time that the Auschwitz State was created for propaganda purposes in 1948, they "r constructed" Crematorium I in its supposed original state; In fact "everythingin it is false." [Tout y est faux] - the dimensions of the "gas chamber", the locations of the doors, the roof openings for pouring in Zyklon B poison, the "ovens" ("rebuilt according to the recollections of some survivors"), and the height of the chimmey. [This confirms recent revisionist investigators who claimed that there was no link between the supposed chimmey and the crematorium: it is a dummy.] Professor [Robert] Faurisson was the first to reveal the deception in 1976, when he cornered museum official Jan Machalek into making an admission that the "gas chamber" was a "reconstruction". Faurisson reported this in the French National newspaper L Monde on December 29, 1978 and Holocaust expert Raul Hilberg admitted under oath at the 1985 Zundel trial in Toronto that this was true. Faurisson's 1976 investigation of the original plans in the museum archives at Auschwitz revealed that until 1942, the "gas chamber"was nothing more than an almost totally enclosed room for storing cadavers awaiting incineration in the endlessly slow c eamatorium one floor above. ....Astonishingly, there are no plans to alter the way that the fake gas chamber is displayed to tourists, who are still to be led to believe they are seeing the right thing.

By Fred Redman TODAY I am able to tell you the full story, revealed in Washington, of the American war trials scandal. It is an ugly story of barbarous tortures inflicted in the name of Allied justice. It is time the British people knew all the facts. Little has appeared in our press until today. The charge is that American soldiers, building evidence against Germans accused of war crimes, have behaved with the same sadistic cruelty as the beasts who terrorised Europe when it was under Nazi domination. The truth has come out through the persistence of an American lawyer and the frank horror of an American Judge who refuses to be muzzled. Judge Edward Van Roden member of a US Army Commission of Inquiry tells how burning matches were forced under the fingernails of a prisoner by American investigators to extort a confession. For months, he says, men were kept in solitary confinement on near-starvation rations. And they were beaten up and savagely kicked until strong men were redeuced to broken wrecks ready to mumble any admission demanded by their prosecutors. The war department have shown the Judges personal report only to General Lucius Clay, their military commander in Germany. Washington suspects the reason was that it was too shocking for public disclosure. ....Commission sent to Germany to investigate was was even more candid. "All but two of the Germans in the 139 cases we investigated, had been kicked in the testicles beyond repair." he charged. "this was standard operating procedure with our American investigators. "They would put a black hood over the accused's head and then punch him in the face with brass knuckles." US Army prosecution teams had he said had posed as priests to hear confessions and give absolution. At mock trials men who refused to confess were confronted by a crucifix and burning candles. Those sham courts, attended by men in US Army uniform, passed sham death sentences. Then the accused were told: "Sign this confession and we get you acquitted." [The Sunday Pictorial Jan 23rd 1949 as cited on p82 in "Holocaust Denial; New Nazi Lie or New Inquisition" by Alexander Baron"] Email A_Baron@abaron.demon.co.uk for details. ] "All but two of the Germans in the 139 cases we investigated, had been kicked in the testicles beyond repair." "The change [of public opinion] followed the notorious case of the American Dachau Tribunal. This tribunal which was abolished in December 1947, had tried 1,500 Germans and condemned 420 of them to death. In autumn of that year Dachau justicc became the subject of a commission of investigation under Judge Gordon Simpson of the Texas Supreme Court. The commission recommended that 29 men who were still under sentence ot death should be reprieved, and it declared that statements had be obtained both from defendents and witnesses by highly questionable means." [The final solution [1968] by G. Reitlinger. page 548] Question: The 'Americans' tortured defendents. Shouldn't it call into question the validity of confessions given in previous trials? Question: If the Americans tortured defendents on such a scale, what did the British, and Polish/Czech Communists do? -- Jeff --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the mountains of truth you never climb in vain.

We frown on this kind of tomfoolery; but we are not as sensitive as some, it seems, because we too receive in the mails letters, drawings, and literature of the most obscene and threatening kind, yet we do not seek to incarcerate our critics. Felderers real offence was one or which he cannot be forgiven: From 1971 onwards he systematically visited the holy Auschwitz site and photographed it from every angle. He made: hundreds of colour transparencies of professional qualityfor example, of the "execution wall" (which mysteriously does not show up on the wartime aerial photos or even in the wartime photos printed in the museum's own guidebook: no mystery at all, really, as this wall was erected after the war by the Poles, like their reconstructed gas chamber, for the tourists to shudder at. Felderer took his photographs before Auschwitz was denuded of all evidence of use to the revisionists (like light switches, wiring, and central heating apparatus, and the hospital equipment which testifies to the Nazis' welfare concerns for the slave labourers, even though they were Jews); indeed in the last three years the Auschwitz authorities, eagerly turning the site into a lucrative Theme Park to rival Euro-Disney , have levelled to the ground and removed every trace of the site's wartime Transit Camp area, which provided partial answer to the oft-posed question: why did the trains arrive at Auschwitz full, and leave empty? - As Michael A Hoffmann II wrote in Revisionist Researcher, commenting on Felderer's imprisonment: long after the place [Auschwitz] has been altered out of recognition as a defence against revisionist criticism, his [Felderers] thousands of expert photographs will stand as the best evidence of what a third-rate Hollywood set that place was throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s. In March there was good news for Felderer. He was kicked out of prison; after serving only part of his sentence. It was found that he was using the right of Swedish prison inmates to free postage to inundate Europe and North America with revisionist publications, printed stickers and further questionable cartoons.

The same place as mentioned by [supposely] Commandant Hoess of Auschwitz in his "confession", was a death camp. But Wolzec doesn't exist.

At his house? [I recall that Fleming actually says that. I'ill check] That's SO lucky. And this document is entitled " Resettlement of Jews" which is "code" for gassing, just like "specially handled" "in readiness for transport" "seperately quartered" "removal" are also "codes" for gassing. Who devised all these 'codewords'? The exterminationists, interpret all these phrases and others to mean gassing, and suggest the nazis used them as "code" for gassing. So why does Himmler need to have it explained in his report? It is just amazing how lucky it is that this report explains "resettlement". Is there a reply from Himmler? I very much doubt it. Is there any cross-references to it, from any other offices? I would very much like to see this report.

I only posted this friday, and on Sunday you say I am silent. Kramer, according to you, was deliberately starving the detainees, and was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Jewish detainees by using a fumigant to kill them in the morgues [code for gas chambers] at Birkenau. So what does Kramer do? He arranges a truce with the allies because a typhus epidemic has broken out and remains behind in accordence with the terms of the truce.

I want in a crime as big as this to find explicit evidence. What one does find, said Irving, is documents pointing in the other direction. For example, in the spring of 1942, Hans Lammers, who was something like the German Prime Minister telephoned the Secretary of State of the German Ministry of Justice, who made a note of their conversation. Lammers said that Hitler had repeatedly said that he wanted the solution of the Jewish problem postponed until after the war.

Lagace has disposed of more than 10,000 bodies since 1976, and cremated more than 1000 since 1984. He has handled victims of fire, accident, and disease, and has seen every stage of bodily composition. He was accorded EXPERT status at the Zundel trial. Lagace next explained some calculations he had made after studying the plans for the 46 retorts at Birkenau.(Auschwitz II) Christie [defence counsel for Zundel] asked him how these compared to the plans for his own crematorium. Well, said Lagace, When I first looked at these [Birkenau plans], I was amazed." The specifications were almost identical to his own retort, including the unusually high 45-foot stack. Based on the afterburner design, he added, it is obvious they were concerned with environmental effects. There would be no smoke and no odor." Lagace estimated that the 46 retorts at Birkenau could handle about 184 bodies daily, or four apiece. But, asked Christie, what about Raul Hilberg's estimate of 4,400 cremations per day at Birkenau? Well," said Lagace, that's preposterous, in my eyes. It's beyond the realm of reality." Christie asked if operating 24 hours a day would raise the output. Just the opposite, insisted Lagace, it would shorten the lifespan of the refractory" and create costly delays. Christie read to Lagace from Hilberg's account of a period in 1944 when about 10,000 Jews a day were allegedly being gassed at Birkenau, and asked again if the 46 retorts could have cremated 4,400 of the victims daily. Lagace: It would be ludicrous to say something like that. dkeren@world.std.com (Daniel Keren) writes: "Well, this "EXPERT" is either lying or he has no idea what he's talking about......" Well, Keren knows better. Keren is a expert. For example, Keren certainly knows about abuse. He's a expert on it. Especially self-abuse.

So let's use Karen's figures to work out the crematory rates for Birkenau, after all, he knows better than Ivan Lagace, an "intellectual zero" who was granted Expert status on Cremation at the Zundel trial, ["Lagace estimated that the 46 retorts at Birkenau could handle about 184 bodies daily, or four apiece." (Holocaust on Trial Page 239)] Lagace is obviously a Neo-Nazi liar or Neo-Nazi ignoramus or more likely - a Neo-Nazi lying ignoramus. There was 46 retorts at Auschwitz II (Birkenau). At the best possible rate [on 1951 figures], flat out with no problems, no maintenance, no warming up, no cooling down, no tea breaks, etc at 30 minutes per corpse the 46 retorts at Birkenau would have cremated:- 46 * 24 * 2 = 2208 corpses a day. A bit short of the SS estimate of 4,756 a day.

[The Final Solution [1968]; Reitlinger page 159] And even Hoess the commandant of Auschwitz, who seems to have a lot of problems with numbers -------- 16,000 a day.

However, let's not be a intellectual zero like Roberts or Baron, and complain that even these figures are unrealistic, let's remember that the Nazis [or the Jewish Sonderkommando who actually operated the retorts, who worked hard and were highly traine , and were next for gassing] stuck 3 corpses in at a time, in every retort, right through those 24 hours, despite the fact the retorts were designed for single corpse cremation, and did it flat out with no problems, no maintenance, no warming up, no cooling down, etc. Now let us IGNORE the idea that this might take 3 times as long, and say it will take the SAME time as for 1 corpse, as everyone knows it will, otherwise we may be classed as intellectual zeros, and we wouldn't want that would we. 1) Best possible rate [1951] 46 * 48 = 6624. [10 minutes per corpse] 2) Next best rate [1951] 46 * 32 = 4416. [15 minutes per corpse] 3) 1940's rate 46 * 24 = 3312. [20 minutes per corpse] At last the forged SS letter estimate is in range. ------ 4,756 a day. But a little short of the Polish Commission's estimate of 12,000 a day. Hoess the commandant of Auschwitz, he's wrong again------ 16,000 a day. Inmate Olga lengel's estimate --------------------------- 17,280 a day. Dr Nysizli's estimate ----------------------------------- 20,000 a day. Now that's better, that SS estimate now FITS. Back to sleep.

His statement had been prepared in German had been submitted to the Military Governor of the US Zone of Occupation in English translation. Since no more than a handful of Americans have seen this or any other German "war criminal's" side of the story, I reproduce it in its entirety, as follows: I, Gustav PETRAT, born 12 November 1924 in Wirballen/Litauen [Lithuania], presently in Landsberg/Lech, make the following sworn statement after I have been informed that this statement is to be submitted to the Military Governor of the US Zone and that an false statement may be severely punished. l. In May 1944, on account of my wound, I was transferred to the guard personnel of the Mauthausen concentration camp and served there as dog leader with the 16th Guard Company. My rank was Corporal (Rottenfuehrer) in the Armed (Waffen) SS. [paragraphs 2-8 already posted] 9. On 15th July 1947 I recieved a general charge sheet and was transferred with my co-accused to the Bunker I, camp Dachau. It was impossible for me to procure any exonerating material there. One was cut off from the outside world. Letters to relatives or acquaintances in which something was said about witnesses or the approaching trial were so cut up that the receiver received only scraps from which he could glean nothing. For that reason it was made impossible for me to procure any defense material. Requests for special letters to witnesses or prior reports to the defense lawyer were fruitless. Already in little things they were making the procuring of exonerating material impossible. Also the time before the beginning of the trial was far too short to obtain any material. 10. On 6 August 1947 the trial began, and lasted unti 21 August. 11. The prosecution witnesses had every support of the prosecuting authorities. When they were shown to be lying, up jumped the prosecutor, Mr. Lindberg, and accused the defense lawyer of intimidating the witnesses and trying to make out that they were liars. 12. In reality, the opposite was the truth. Defense witnesses were intimidated by the braying of the prosecutor or were branded as false. It happened that defense witnesses were threatened and beaten by foreign former prisoners so that the former had no more interest in appearing for the defense. They were afraid that they too would be accused of something, which the foreign prisoners were quite capable of, as they hated everything German and were out for revenge. What happened next? Well, it gets much much worse......

"In many cases gas chambers had been used." In a Top Secret telegram Goebbel's ministry asked Hans Frank for an explanation. Via New York, the same report reached Himmler; writing to Gestapo chief Muller on November 30, he called it a "very interesting [press]announcement about a memorandum written by Dr. [Stephen F.] Wise [President of the American Jewish Congress] in September 1942." and commented: "Given the scale of the Jewish migration, I'm not surprised that such rumours crop up somewhere in the world. We both know there's a high death rate among the Jews who are put to work. But you are to guarantee to me that at each location the cadavers of these deceased Jews are either burned or buried, and that nothing else can happen with the cadavers wherever they are. You are to investigate at once in all quarters to find out whether there have been any such abuses as the -no doubt mendacious- rumors disseminated around the world claim. All such abuses are to be reported to me on the SS oath of honor" (Us National Archives No T175/68/4325). Page 820 Hitlers War [latest edition] by David Irving. Think on this. Himmler has heard of a claim that gassing is taking place made by Dr Wise, President of the World Jewish Congress. He gets [Obergruppenfuhrer Heinrich] Muller, head of the State Secret Police to investigate. Question: Why should Himmler get Muller "to investigate at once in all quarters to find out whether there have been any such abuses as the - no doubt mendacious rumours" claim, if he is gassing and murdering Jews by the million?

This was the claim which British writer David Irving made in Munich in April 1990: a remark for which the German government fined him DM30,000 ($22,000) and banned him from Germany in 1993. The Court of Human Rights in Strasboug has now agreed to hear the appeal his lawyers against Germany. The largely Jewish-owned French magazine L'Express, which is comparable with the US magazine Time and with Germany's Der Spiegel, slated in a well-researched article (titled: "Auschswitz: The Memoir ot Evil ) appearing under the by-line of anti-revisionist historian Eric Conan that the authorities at Auschwitz have now conceded the fraud - but they also admit that for them there is now no going back. The admission represents a major vindication for Professor Robert Faurisson, who was the first public figure to point to the fraud, back in 1976. Unable to accept the truth, his opponents have subjected him to a reign of terror since then. In one incident a gang of thugs, who were immediately denounced by the rest of the Jewish community, poured acid into Faurisson's eyes, and broke his upper and Iower jaws almost beyond repair. ....Now the Auschwitz gas chamber legend is finally crumbling too. Just as the leading revisionists promised it would. In his article Eric Conan states that there been many blatant falsifications in the Auschwitz and Birkenau concentration camp sites. In particular he reveals that at the time that the Auschwitz State was created for propaganda purposes in 1948, they "r constructed" Crematorium I in its supposed original state; In fact "everythingin it is false." [Tout y est faux] - the dimensions of the "gas chamber", the locations of the doors, the roof openings for pouring in Zyklon B poison, the "ovens" ("rebuilt according to the recollections of some survivors"), and the height of the chimmey. [This confirms recent revisionist investigators who claimed that there was no link between the supposed chimmey and the crematorium: it is a dummy.] Professor [Robert] Faurisson was the first to reveal the deception in 1976, when he cornered museum official Jan Machalek into making an admission that the "gas chamber" was a "reconstruction". Faurisson reported this in the French National newspaper L Monde on December 29, 1978 and Holocaust expert Raul Hilberg admitted under oath at the 1985 Zundel trial in Toronto that this was true. Faurisson's 1976 investigation of the original plans in the museum archives at Auschwitz revealed that until 1942, the "gas chamber"was nothing more than an almost totally enclosed room for storing cadavers awaiting incineration in the endlessly slow c eamatorium one floor above. ....Astonishingly, there are no plans to alter the way that the fake gas chamber is displayed to tourists, who are still to be led to believe they are seeing the right thing.

By Fred Redman TODAY I am able to tell you the full story, revealed in Washington, of the American war trials scandal. It is an ugly story of barbarous tortures inflicted in the name of Allied justice. It is time the British people knew all the facts. Little has appeared in our press until today. The charge is that American soldiers, building evidence against Germans accused of war crimes, have behaved with the same sadistic cruelty as the beasts who terrorised Europe when it was under Nazi domination. The truth has come out through the persistence of an American lawyer and the frank horror of an American Judge who refuses to be muzzled. Judge Edward Van Roden member of a US Army Commission of Inquiry tells how burning matches were forced under the fingernails of a prisoner by American investigators to extort a confession. For months, he says, men were kept in solitary confinement on near-starvation rations. And they were beaten up and savagely kicked until strong men were redeuced to broken wrecks ready to mumble any admission demanded by their prosecutors. The war department have shown the Judges personal report only to General Lucius Clay, their military commander in Germany. Washington suspects the reason was that it was too shocking for public disclosure. ....Commission sent to Germany to investigate was was even more candid. "All but two of the Germans in the 139 cases we investigated, had been kicked in the testicles beyond repair." he charged. "this was standard operating procedure with our American investigators. "They would put a black hood over the accused's head and then punch him in the face with brass knuckles." US Army prosecution teams had he said had posed as priests to hear confessions and give absolution. At mock trials men who refused to confess were confronted by a crucifix and burning candles. Those sham courts, attended by men in US Army uniform, passed sham death sentences. Then the accused were told: "Sign this confession and we get you acquitted." [The Sunday Pictorial Jan 23rd 1949 as cited on p82 in "Holocaust Denial; New Nazi Lie or New Inquisition" by Alexander Baron"] Email A_Baron@abaron.demon.co.uk for details. ] "All but two of the Germans in the 139 cases we investigated, had been kicked in the testicles beyond repair." "The change [of public opinion] followed the notorious case of the American Dachau Tribunal. This tribunal which was abolished in December 1947, had tried 1,500 Germans and condemned 420 of them to death. In autumn of that year Dachau justicc became the subject of a commission of investigation under Judge Gordon Simpson of the Texas Supreme Court. The commission recommended that 29 men who were still under sentence ot death should be reprieved, and it declared that statements had be obtained both from defendents and witnesses by highly questionable means." [The final solution [1968] by G. Reitlinger. page 548] Question: The 'Americans' tortured defendents. Shouldn't it call into question the validity of confessions given in previous trials? Question: If the Americans tortured defendents on such a scale, what did the British, and Polish/Czech Communists do? -- Jeff --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the mountains of truth you never climb in vain.

Those who meet him are shocked by his Far Side appearance. His publicity methods have annoyed many revisionists. This excess baggage having been set out and disposed of, ACTION REPORT feels that the one year prison term imposed on Felderer in oh-so-liberal Sweden is to be regarded as proof;of the harm that he has inflicted, both with his biting satire ; and with his expert photography on the legends of the Holocaust. Probably the sentence was enforced as a belated tribute for having testified at the Ernst Zundel trial: since the enemy were thwarted at the last moment of their real preyZundel was acquitted of all charges on his final appeal to the Canadian supreme courtthey have spent the years since 1988 hounding down all those who contributed to that verdict, from Douglas Christie and his staff, and all the defenee witnesses. In England this harassment of witnesses would be seen as contempt of court. In North America the laws evidently run differently. BUT BACK TO FELDERER FIRST, WHAT Was his rea1 offence?Certainly not the petty charge of printing satirical and often tasteless Holocaust caricatures, and mailing them to Jewish addresses, for which he was jailed by the Swedish courts (which normally turn the blindest of eyes on pornography). We frown on this kind of tomfoolery; but we are not as sensitive as some, it seems, because we too receive in the mails letters, drawings, and literature of the most obscene and threatening kind, yet we do not seek to incarcerate our critics. Felderers real offence was one or which he cannot be forgiven: From 1971 onwards he systematically visited the holy Auschwitz site and photographed it from every angle. He made: hundreds of colour transparencies of professional qualityfor example, of the "execution wall" (which mysteriously does not show up on the wartime aerial photos or even in the wartime photos printed in the museum's own guidebook: no mystery at all, really, as this wall was erected after the war by the Poles, like their reconstructed gas chamber, for the tourists to shudder at. Felderer took his photographs before Auschwitz was denuded of all evidence of use to the revisionists (like light switches, wiring, and central heating apparatus, and the hospital equipment which testifies to the Nazis' welfare concerns for the slave labourers, even though they were Jews); indeed in the last three years the Auschwitz authorities, eagerly turning the site into a lucrative Theme Park to rival Euro-Disney , have levelled to the ground and removed every trace of the site's wartime Transit Camp area, which provided partial answer to the oft-posed question: why did the trains arrive at Auschwitz full, and leave empty? - As Michael A Hoffmann II wrote in Revisionist Researcher, commenting on Felderer's imprisonment: long after the place [Auschwitz] has been altered out of recognition as a defence against revisionist criticism, his [Felderers] thousands of expert photographs will stand as the best evidence of what a third-rate Hollywood set that place was throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s. In March there was good news for Felderer. He was kicked out of prison; after serving only part of his sentence. It was found that he was using the right of Swedish prison inmates to free postage to inundate Europe and North America with revisionist publications, printed stickers and further questionable cartoons.

The same place as mentioned by [supposely] Commandant Hoess of Auschwitz in his "confession", was a death camp. But Wolzec doesn't exist.

The answer IS NO. Irving was not convicted of "lying" as because [afaik] there's no offence of that name under English or Scots law. Slander is verbal, not written. I presume this question is actually an allusion about the bitter libel cases re: Irving's Book on the PQ-17 convoy. "When author David Irving researched the history of disastrous Anglo-American convoy operation PQ-17 of June 1942 he stumbled upon the guiltiest secrets in the Admiralty's locker: through their own blundering incompetence they had mis-read the intentions of the Nazi battle fleet, mis-interpreted the decoded signals, and abandoned the richly laden convoy of ships to certain destruction by bombers and submarines in the sub-zero waters of the Arctic. Centuries-old publishing house Cassell & co. published Irving's best-selling narrative in 1967. Their edition had at that time to omit certain well-kept secrets of World War II. Even so the Navy struck back immediately at author Irving, himself the son of a naval officer. Funded by naval officers, an ex-captain began three years of bitter legal actions that made headlines in Britain and ended with the book being banned all around the world, the author ordered to pay the heaviest damages in British legal history, and publisher Cassell's forced out of business; in the finest British naval tradition the captain too lost nearly all he had in the battle. The Navy however sent a cheery telegram of victory to Irving on the night the courts ordered the ban: "WE ARE SPLICING THE MAINBRACE IN PORTSMOUTH TONIGHT" - an extra ration of rum for all hands. Irving came back fighting - "dismasted but not dismayed," as he put it. The release of the Admiralty signals on Ultra-reinstated in [the new edition of THE DESTRUCTION OF CONVOY PQ-17] vindicates him. As Admiral Sir Norman Denning, director of British Naval Intelligence, said when he first read Irving's account: "This is the finest history of an Allied naval operation I ever read."

No. David Irving's "Hitlers War" came out in 1977, 18 years ago, since then he has considerably changed his views. At the 1988 Zundel trial where he appeared as a EXPERT witness, he said in answer to the prosecuting counsel question of "....that secret extermination camps did not begin operating until December 1941?" "I think I have to say here that this sentence falls into the category of sentences that I would not repeat in 1988. At the time I wrote that in the 1960's, 1974 thereabouts when I wrote...that introduction, I believed. I believed everything I had heard about the extermination camps. I wasn't investigating the extermination camps. I was investigating Hitler....My mind has now changed. I have now begun to challenge that. I understand it is now a subject open to debate...My belief has now changed because I understand that the whole of the Holocaust mythology is, after all, open to doubt." cited in "DID SIX MILLION REALLY DIE?"

His statement had been prepared in German had been submitted to the Military Governor of the US Zone of Occupation in English translation. Since no more than a handful of Americans have seen this or any other German "war criminal's" side of the story, I reproduce it in its entirety, as follows: I, Gustav PETRAT, born 12 November 1924 in Wirballen/Litauen [Lithuania], presently in Landsberg/Lech, make the following sworn statement after I have been informed that this statement is to be submitted to the Military Governor of the US Zone and that an false statement may be severely punished. l. In May 1944, on account of my wound, I was transferred to the guard personnel of the Mauthausen concentration camp and served there as dog leader with the 16th Guard Company. My rank was Corporal (Rottenfuehrer) in the Armed (Waffen) SS. 2. On 10 May 1945, I was taken prisoner by American soldiers in Reid near Mauthausen and taken to the Tittling camp. When I got there I was mistreated with whips, fists and feet, as was the general custom at that time for newly arrived prisoners. 3. Like many others I was quartered in a potato patch in the open air, so that we all were exposecl to the weather. The first three days we received nothing to eat, and from the fourth day on they gave us one loaf of bread for every 20 prisoners and 1 liter of soup for every two men. Under these conditions I lived for some weeks until I was totally undernourished, so that it was hardly possible for me to move from the spot. 4. On 26 May 1945 I had my first interrogation there, which was one of the most memorable of my entire captivity. Even before they asked me the first Question, they struck me so that I collapsed. After I had managed to stagger upright again in spite of my weak condition and aidcd by the necessary kicks >from the interrogator, the real interrogation began. They asked me questions that I could not have answered if I had the best will in the world to do so. I was to state where the leader of the Mauthausen Concentration Camp was. It was impossiblc for me to give the information, since I really didn't know, and, as a little corporal I couldn't know. My reply loosed a hail of blows. The second question concerned myself. They asked rne how many prisoners I had shot and beaten, to which I replied truthfully and with a clean conscience, "Not one." Then the interrogator drew a pistol and threatened to kill me if I did not tell the truth, immediately. He meant, however, that I should be hanged. I told him again that I only spoke the truth and he could kill me if he wanted to, that at least I would be freed from the whole mess. Then more blows, and with a push in the small of the back I fled [sic].

On 9 May 1945 I was taken to the Moosburg internment camp with about 80 other prisoners. On 7 September 1945 I had my second interrogation, in Moosburg, at which they asked me the same questions they asked in the Tittling camp. There too, I received blows from a whip. This consisted of a wooden handle about 30 cm long to which leather straps had been fastened. Since I had to answer the questions in the negative, they told me that there were other ways and means to force me to tell the truth. Then the interrogator left the room for a few minutes, and returned with a second interrogator. Since I had to reply to this man's questions in the negative also, because I did not know of any killing, he struck me with his fists and threatened to "hang" and "shoot" me. After I stuck to my guns, I was taken back to my quarters. On 10 February 1946 I was transferred to the Dachau internment camp. 6. There I was interrogated two times. At the interrogation on 21 June 1946 they read statements to me that said that I had shot eight prisoners in the Mauthausen concentration camp. I was to sign this, but I vigorously refused because I never shot a prisoner. After repeated requests to sign, I was struck with fists and kicked with feet. They put a paper in front of me to sign in which it said that l had never been beaten by American interrogators and soldiers. I refused, and only after repeated blows, with the threat that I would never leave the room alive until I had signed, and that they would know how to break me down my obstinacy, did I put my name to it. I had never had anything to do with the court in my life and I was afraid that they would make my life even more difficult. 7. In January 1947 the so-called "line-ups" commenced in Dachau Special Camp. I was confronted with prisoners three times, yet not one accused me of the least thing. The man in charge of the line-up, Mr. ENTRESS, told the prisoners that I was said to have shot many and beaten them to death, where at only a burst of laugher arose. At that time I was 22 years old. When I was 19.5 I came to Mauthausen as dog-leader. A former prominent prisoner, Dr. SANNER, asserted he did not know me, but if a dog-leader had beaten prisoners to death or shot them that would certainly have become known in the camp. Many other former lon -term prisoners joined in this exonerating testimony. 8. At mid-July 1947 I and my seven co-accused were presented for the first time to our official defense lawyer, Major Willilm A.OATES. To his question whether I knew what I was accused of, and by whom, I could only reply that I was not conscious of any guilt and also had never counted on being brought to trial, since I had never mistreated or killed anyone. Major OATES told me that he too, knew nothing, that he could not get a glimpse of the incriminating papers of the proseation, and therefore he would have to go by my statements, the general charge sheet, and the testimony of the prosecution witnesses at the trial. Since only the prosecution had access to the records, my lawyer did not see them, and so naturally it was very difficult for him to prepare a defense. Major OATES promised to do everything he could. Also I gave him the names of lhe witnesses who were important for me, and who themselves were interned in Dachau.

On 15th July 1947 I recieved a general charge sheet and was transferred with my co-accused to the Bunker I, camp Dachau. It was impossible for me to procure any exonerating material there. One was cut off from the outside world. Letters to relatives or acquaintances in which something was said about witnesses or the approaching trial were so cut up that the receiver received only scraps from which he could glean nothing. For that reason it was made impossible for me to procure any defense material. Requests for special letters to witnesses or prior reports to the defense lawyer were fruitless. Already in little things they were making the procuring of exonerating material impossible. Also the time before the beginning of the trial was far too short to obtain any material. 10. On 6 August 1947 the trial began, and lasted unti 21 August. 11. The prosecution witnesses had every support of the prosecuting authorities. When they were shown to be lying, up jumped the prosecutor, Mr. Lindberg, and accused the defense lawyer of intimidating the witnesses and trying to make out that they were liars. 12. In reality, the opposite was the truth. Defense witnesses were intimidated by the braying of the prosecutor or were branded as false. It happened that defense witnesses were threatened and beaten by foreign former prisoners so that the former had no more interest in appearing for the defense. They were afraid that they too would be accused of something, which the foreign prisoners were quite capable of, as they hated everything German and were out for revenge.

Notice this curious document P.S. 3319 (N.M.T. XXXII, pp. 159-92) which Mr. Raul Hilberg cites and comments upon (1961 pp. 502-709). In question is the organization, by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Third Reich, of an anti-Jewish congress at Krummhubel on April 3 and 4, 1944, with all the representatives at foreign posts participating. In 27 pages a certain Ludwig Kohlhammer, Landesgnsppenleiter, reports very exactly on the number of participants - 31 persons - and their names and what each one said. Now, this congress never took place. This is how the matter was presented to the Nuremberg Tribunal: March 27, 1946, [Adolf] von Steengracht (Secretary of State, Foreign Affairs, Third Reich) is interrogated by Colonel Philimore deputy prosecutor-general for the English, who asks him: "I would now like to bring up the question of the Jews. You told us yesterday that you yourself and Mr. Ribbentrop had prevented the anti-Jewish Congress of 1944 from taking place. Is that true? "Yes," answered von Steengracht. (T.X., p. 137.) And this is what he stated the day before in reply to a question put by Dr. Horn, von Ribbentrop's counsel: "Our liaison with Hitler informed us that the latter, informed by Bormann, had ordered Rosenberg's office to organize an anti-Semitic congress. Ribbentrop did not want to believe it, but after having had a conversation with the liaison agent, he had to believe it. Since this decision made it irnpossible for us to prevent the congress through official channels, we tried to prevent it with a policy of hesitation, delay and obstruction And, although the order had been issued in the spring of 1944, and the war was still not over in April 1945, the congress never took place." (T.X., p. 125.) On April 2, 1946, von Ribbentrop is interrogated by Mr. Edgar Faure, who at the time was deputy prosecutor-general for France, and who later was to become President of Council in France: - Mr. Edgar Faure (to Ribbentrop): "During the examination of your witness Steengracht, the English prosecutor brought forth document P.S. 3319, which has the English No. G.B. 287. I would like to refer to this document just for one question: In this document appear the minutes of a congress, of a gathering at which were present all the reporters on Jewish matters in the various diplomatic missions in Europe. This congress was held at Krummhubel on April 3 and 4, 1944. It had been organized by Schleier. That was read the other day. You knew about this congress, I suppose?" von Ribbentrop: "No, I am hearing about it for the first time. What was that congress? I have not even heard that such a congress took place. What sort of a congress was it?" Mr. Faure: The document has been filed with the Tribunal and I simply want to ask you one question. You have testified that you did not know about this gathering at which were present thirty one persons, almost all of them diplomatic personnel. I point out to you that during this reunion Counsellor of Embassy von Thadden made a declaration which was reported in the following terms: 'The orator is showing why the Zionist solution of Palestine and other similar solutions should be rejected, and why there are grounds for the deportation of the Jews to the eastern territories.' I suggest that this declaration made by a Counsellor of Embassy before thirty one persons in your department represented your own thesis on the subject." von Ribbentrop: "Yes, but I do not know at all what you are trying to say. Will you please put the document at my disposal so that I may answer?" Mr Faure. "I have no intention of showing you this document .... (T.X., p. 420)." THAT WAS THE PROOF OF FORGERY. It was also a typical breach Of the Rule of Procedure No. 2 of the Tribunal itself which provided that "all the documents appended to the Indictment shall be put at the disposition of the defendants not less than 30 days before the trials" (T.I., p. 21). This matter was never spoken of again. If one looks in the Index of Names (T., 24) for information on landesgruppenleiter Ludwig Kohlhammer, he is not listed. But, Document P.S. 3319 was admitted into evidence.

Abbe Jean-Paul Renard Deported with registration number 39,727, Abbe Jean-Paul Renard preceded Frere Birin and myself by several weeks to Buchenwald; it was Dora [a sub-camp of Buchenwald] where we met him again. He published a collection of poems inspired by a sometimes moving mysticism with the title Chaines et Lumieres. These poems consist of a series of spiritual reactions rather than any attempt at objective testimony. One of them, nevertheless, enumerates some facts: J'ai vu, j'ai vu, et jai vecu . . . Frere Birin published it in an appendix to his own work, which has been discussed in the first section of this chapter. One of the poems reads: "I saw going into the showers thousands and thousands of persons over whom poured out, instead of liquid, asphyxiating gases. I saw those who were unfit for work injected in the heart." Actually, Abbe Jean-Paul Renard saw nothing of the kind, because gas chambers did not exist either at Buchenwald, or at Dora. As for the injections, it was not done the time he went through there. When I pointed that fact out to him at the beginning of 1947, he answered, Right, that's only a figure of speech . . . and since those things existed somewhere, it is of no importance." I found his reasoning delightful. At the moment I did not dare to retort that the Battle of Fontenoy was also a historical reality, but that was no reason for saying, even as a figure of speech, that he had been present. Nor did I say that , if twenty eight thousand survivors of the Nazi camps had claimed that they had been present at all of the horrors set forth by all of the testimonies, the camps would assume, in the eyes of history quite a different image than if each survivor had confined himself to telling only what he had actually seen. Nor did I mention that it was in our interest that not one of us should be guilty of lying or exaggeration. Note: The above was written by Professor Paul Rassinier, the father of revisionism. He, as a resistant to the German occupation of France was arrested, and sent to Buchenwald concentration camp.

Frere Birin Frere Birin whose real name is Alfred Untereiner, published a Chronological account of his experiences at Buchenwald and Dora entitled 16 mois de bagne (Reims: Matot-Braine 1946) In the Prologue, he relates the circumstances that led to his arrest and deportation. He was arrested in December, 1943, was deported to Buchenwald on January 17, 1944 and was transferred to Dora [a sub-camp] the following March 13th . We were in the same deportation convoy and in the same transport from Buchenwald to Dora. Our registration numbers were also close together 43,642 for him, and 44,364 for me. We were liberated together........ On the instigation [says Frere Birin in his book on page 77] of the notorious Oberscharfurhrer Sanders, SS, wiht whom I had something to do, other methods of execution were used for the saboteurs. The unfortunates were made to dig narrow ditches, in which their comrades were forced to bury them up to the neck. They were left for a cetain length of time. After that an SS. with a long handled axe cut off their heads. But the sadism of some of the SS led them to discover an even more cruel death. They ordered other prisoners to pour barrow loads of sand over their poor heads. I am still haunted by the looks etc..... This, too, was never done at Dora.

I can only repeat what I said previously, said [David] Irving, that this was such an extraordinary document, that the figure was so unusual, that it is the kind of thing which makes one raise one's eyebrows and question further...[O]ne would look for a reference to this document in perhaps the War Diary of the German High Command or in some other collateral source where you would find the same figures turning up quoted. It would be sufficient to make me mistrustfull of the document because it is such an extraordinary figure, and...inserted there almost as an afterthought, a figure that is 20 or 30 times as large as any other figure on the page." You asked for a collateral source, said Pearson, but who else [but the Security Police] is going to be around [behind the battle lines] to report on those things?" Presumably, said Irving, we British would have intercepted it because we were reading the German SS code at that time...That is one example." "This document is very much an orphan," said Irving. It is all by itself, without parents....As a historian, I have to [ask] why, suddenly, this colossal figure was inserted there in this report when all the other reports of that series contained no such figure. I want to know. It raises questions in my head and I'm uncomfortable with it. "Who is this report going to?" asked Pearson. To Himmler, said Irving. "Himmler's diary is unfortunately in the hands of the Israelis. It is a point worth mentioning that the Israeli government would not allow any historians to make use of Heinrich Himmler's private diary. If Heinrich Himnler's private diary contained evidence that there had been a Holocaust, such as defined by you, or that your interpretation of these documents is correct, then I'm sure the Israelis would have been the first to release the diary and make it available, but they don't." Pearson: Isn't that a bit of speculation, sir? No, said Irving, "I think it is a very reasonable assumption......".

By Fred Redman TODAY I am able to tell you the full story, revealed in Washington, of the American war trials scandal. It is an ugly story of barbarous tortures inflicted in the name of Allied justice. It is time the British people knew all the facts. Little has appeared in our press until today. The charge is that American soldiers, building evidence against Germans accused of war crimes, have behaved with the same sadistic cruelty as the beasts who terrorised Europe when it was under Nazi domination. The truth has come out through the persistence of an American lawyer and the frank horror of an American Judge who refuses to be muzzled. Judge Edward Van Roden member of a US Army Commission of Inquiry tells how burning matches were forced under the fingernails of a prisoner by American investigators to extort a confession. For months, he says, men were kept in solitary confinement on near-starvation rations. And they were beaten up and savagely kicked until strong men were redeuced to broken wrecks ready to mumble any admission demanded by their prosecutors. The war department have shown the Judges personal report only to General Lucius Clay, their military commander in Germany. Washington suspects the reason was that it was too shocking for public disclosure. ....Commission sent to Germany to investigate was was even more candid. "All but two of the Germans in the 139 cases we investigated, had been kicked in the testicles beyond repair." he charged. "this was standard operating procedure with our American investigators. "They would put a black hood over the accused's head and then punch him in the face with brass knuckles." US Army prosecution teams had he said had posed as priests to hear confessions and give absolution. At mock trials men who refused to confess were confronted by a crucifix and burning candles. Those sham courts, attended by men in US Army uniform, passed sham death sentences. Then the accused were told: "Sign this confession and we get you acquitted." [The Sunday Pictorial Jan 23rd 1949 as cited on p82 in "Holocaust Denial; New Nazi Lie or New Inquisition" by Alexander Baron"] Email A_Baron@abaron.demon.co.uk for details. ] "All but two of the Germans in the 139 cases we investigated, had been kicked in the testicles beyond repair." "The change [of public opinion] followed the notorious case of the American Dachau Tribunal. This tribunal which was abolished in December 1947, had tried 1,500 Germans and condemned 420 of them to death. In autumn of that year Dachau justicc became the subject of a commission of investigation under Judge Gordon Simpson of the Texas Supreme Court. The commission recommended that 29 men who were still under sentence ot death should be reprieved, and it declared that statements had be obtained both from defendents and witnesses by highly questionable means." [The final solution [1968] by G. Reitlinger. page 548] Question: The 'Americans' tortured defendents. Shouldn't it call into question the validity of confessions given in previous trials? Question: If the Americans tortured defendents on such a scale, what did the British, and the Communists do?

Emil Lachout, the official who had countersigned it in 1948 and recently made it public, has only been criticised for making public what is an embarrassing document." The next defense witness [at the Zundel trial] was Emil Lachout, a tall, well-spoken Austrian who testified with the aid of the court interpreter. Lachout brought with him a copy of a document, dated October 1, 1948, of the Military Police Service, a postwar Austrian force which worked with the four Occupying governments. This document, a circular letter, stated that careful Allied investigations had determined that no gassings ever occurred in the 13 German and Austrian concentration camps listed, and that former internees who persisted in saying that they had should be charged with giving false testimony Lachout explained that a function of the Military police Service was to accompany the occupation forces when they arrested and interrogated Austrian and other civilians. This was necessary due to past instances of torture and other abuse, and the Allied interest in showing justice being done. When Pearson [prosecution counsel] questioned the relevance of Lachouts testimony, Christie [defence lawyer] explained that, until 1960 or so, there were widespread allegations of gassings at Dachau and other concentration camps outside of Poland. The Harwood pamphlet [Did six million really die?] had noted as much. Yet the investigations of which Lachout was a part had resolved the question as early as 1948. Lachout explained that his personal involvement in the investigations extended only to Mauthausen and its satellite camps, in Austria. Why, asked Christie, had the Allied War Crimes Commission, which conducted the investigations, been formed? Because, said Lachout, instances of torture and of false testimony had been occurring, "and the Allies wanted to prevent further such things from happening." The Austrian observers on the Commission were (then) Lt. Lachout and a Major Muller. Lachout witnessed Muller's signature on the document in 1948, and restored it to public attention in 1987, when he was called as a witness at two trials in Vienna. Was anyone charged with making false claims [because of the Muller-Lachout document]?" asked Christie. "No," said Lachout. Because as soon as [the former internees concerned] heard about it, they withdrew their statements. Christie: What happened to the War Crimes Commission itself? Lachout: A year later, it ceased to exist and then it met again in individual cases. [Pages 196 & 274-5 From the "The Holocaust on Trial" ,The case of Ernst Zundel by Robert Lenski.

One came from a book published in Warsaw in 1980, and agreed, said the witness, with all the other plans known to him. The second came from The Auschwitz Album, a popular book first published in 1981 or 1982 that contains nearly 200 photos of the camp. The latter plan, said Faurisson, contains a "trick." He then explained himself. Exterminationists say that the women and children selected for gassing at Auschwitz were led to the buildings called Crematoria II and III. Faurisson believes they were led to the camp's large bath/sauna complex by way of a road which passed between Crematoria II and III. aThe trick," explained Faurisson, is that in the map in The Auschwitz Album, that they cut the road going to the big sauna," making it look like it dead-ends at the crematoria. "There are other tricks" in the same book, said Faurisson. For example, the well-known soccer field for internees beside Crematoria II and III is not designated as such because readers would find it hard to believe that gassings and athletics were conducted side-by-side.

The crematorias are now "incinerators". So why didn't the SS build incinerators? Perhaps "crematoria is just another "codeword"? Just like "In readiness for transport" or "passed through" are "codewords" for gassing, etc etc [its a long list.] However, these were 1951 figures, for the 1940s, let's make it a hour per corpse:- 46 * 24 = 1104 a day. However, let's not be a intellectual zero like Roberts or Baron, and complain that even these figures are UNREALISTIC, let's remember that the Nazis [or the Jewish Sonderkommando who actually operated the retorts, who worked hard and were highly trained, and were next for gassing] stuck 3 [THREE] corpses in EVERY time, in EVERY retort, NON-STOP right through those 24 hours, despite the fact the retorts were designed for single corpse cremation, and did it flat out with NO problems, NO maintenance, No warming up, No cooling down, etc. Now let us IGNORE the idea that this might take 3 times as long [this allows for kids etc etc] , and say it will take the SAME time as for 1 corpse, as EVERYONE knows it will, otherwise we may be classed as intellectual zeros, and we wouldn't want that would we. 1) 1940's rate 46 * 24 * 3 = 3312. [20 minutes per corpse] It's still a bit short of these estimates :- The SS letter with its janatorial security classification 4,756 a day. But a little short of the Polish Commission's estimate of 12,000 a day. Hoess the commandant of Auschwitz, he's wrong again------ 16,000 a day. Inmate Olga lengel's estimate --------------------------- 17,280 a day. Dr Nysizli's estimate ----------------------------------- 20,000 a day. [Notice how Hoess is just slightly out on his estimate, and he's the camp commandant.] jmorris@gpu.srv.ualberta.ca (John Morris) then writes: > But, of course, the Kremas did not dispose of that many bodies by > themselves. They were eventually abandoned in favour of burning pits. Burning pits which allied photo-recce planes failed to spot. Just like the "death wall", where 20,000 prisoners were shot, making no bullet marks, the nazis of course using invisible bullets. Still, at least the allies sent over precision bombers to take out the railway lines, to Auschwitz, to stop the genocide. -- Jeff --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the mountains of truth you never climb in vain.

Lagace has disposed of more than 10,000 bodies since 1976, and cremated more than 1000 since 1984. He has handled victims of fire, accident, and disease, and has seen every stage of bodily composition. [quote from page 249] He was accorded EXPERT status at the Zundel trial. Lagace next explained some calculations he had made after studying the plans for the 46 retorts at Birkenau.(Auschwitz II) Christie [defence counsel for Zundel] asked him how these compared to the plans for his own crematorium. Well, said Lagace, When I first looked at these [Birkenau plans], I was amazed." The specifications were almost identical to his own retort, including the unusually high 45-foot stack. Based on the afterburner design, he added, it is obvious they were concerned with environmental effects. There would be no smoke and no odour." Lagace estimated that the 46 retorts at Birkenau could handle about 184 bodies daily, or four apiece. But, asked Christie, what about Raul Hilberg's estimate of 4,400 cremations per day at Birkenau? Well," said Lagace, that's preposterous, in my eyes. It's beyond the realm of reality." Christie asked if operating 24 hours a day would raise the output. Just the opposite, insisted Lagace, it would shorten the lifespan of the refractory" and create costly delays. Christie read to Lagace from Hilberg's account of a period in 1944 when about 10,000 Jews a day were allegedly being gassed at Birkenau, and asked again if the 46 retorts could have cremated 4,400 of the victims daily. Lagace: It would be ludicrous to say something like that. But dkeren@world.std.com (Daniel Keren) a expert on abuse, especially self-abuse writes: "Well, this "EXPERT" is either lying or he has no idea what he's talking about......" dkeren@world.std.com (Daniel Keren) writes: > There's BTW a patent, submitted by the very same Topf firm > in 1951, which gives a cremation time of 30-45 minutes > per corpse. It is not the same type of furnace as the > one used in Birkenau, but this figure obviously means > a lot, assuming the science of cremation has not made > a quantum leap right after the war. Once more, the > revisionazis have failed to do their homework." So let's use Karen's figures to work out the crematory rates for Birkenau, after all, he knows better than Ivan Lagace, an "intellectual zero" who was granted Expert status on Cremation at the Zundel trial, At the best possible rate [on 1951 figures], flat out with no problems, no maintenance, no warming up, no cooling down, no tea breaks, etc at 30 minutes per corpse the 46 retorts at Birkenau would have cremated:- 46 * 24 * 2 = 2208 corpses a day. multiply this figure by 3 for allow for the fantasy rate of Karen) = 6624. estimates :- Ivan Lagace [cremation Expert] 184 a day. Raul Hilberg [Jewish Author] 4,400 a day. SS-Sturmbannfurhrer Jahrings letter (1)------- 4,756 a day. [this includes Auschwitz I] D Karen [abuse expert] 6,624 a day. Polish Commission of Inquiry (2)----------------- 12,000 a day. Hoess the commandant of Auschwitz, (2) ----- 16,000 a day. Inmate Olga Lengel's estimate (3) -------- 17,280 a day. Inmate Dr Nysizli's estimate (2) -------- 20,000 a day.

By Fred Redman TODAY I am able to tell you the full story, revealed in Washington, of the American war trials scandal. It is an ugly story of barbarous tortures inflicted in the name of Allied justice. It is time the British people knew all the facts. Little has appeared in our press until today. The charge is that American soldiers, building evidence against Germans accused of war crimes, have behaved with the same sadistic cruelty as the beasts who terrorised Europe when it was under Nazi domination. The truth has come out through the persistence of an American lawyer and the frank horror of an American Judge who refuses to be muzzled. Judge Edward Van Roden member of a US Army Commission of Inquiry tells how burning matches were forced under the fingernails of a prisoner by American investigators to extort a confession. For months, he says, men were kept in solitary confinement on near-starvation rations. And they were beaten up and savagely kicked until strong men were redeuced to broken wrecks ready to mumble any admission demanded by their prosecutors. The war department have shown the Judges personal report only to General Lucius Clay, their military commander in Germany. Washington suspects the reason was that it was too shocking for public disclosure. ....Commission sent to Germany to investigate was was even more candid. "All but two of the Germans in the 139 cases we investigated, had been kicked in the testicles beyond repair." he charged. "this was standard operating procedure with our American investigators. "They would put a black hood over the accused's head and then punch him in the face with brass knuckles." US Army prosecution teams had he said had posed as priests to hear confessions and give absolution. At mock trials men who refused to confess were confronted by a crucifix and burning candles. Those sham courts, attended by men in US Army uniform, passed sham death sentences. Then the accused were told: "Sign this confession and we get you acquitted." [The Sunday Pictorial Jan 23rd 1949 as cited on p82 in "Holocaust Denial; New Nazi Lie or New Inquisition" by Alexander Baron"] Email A_Baron@abaron.demon.co.uk for details. ] "All but two of the Germans in the 139 cases we investigated, had been kicked in the testicles beyond repair." "The change [of public opinion] followed the notorious case of the American Dachau Tribunal. This tribunal which was abolished in December 1947, had tried 1,500 Germans and condemned 420 of them to death. In autumn of that year Dachau justicc became the subject of a commission of investigation under Judge Gordon Simpson of the Texas Supreme Court. The commission recommended that 29 men who were still under sentence ot death should be reprieved, and it declared that statements had be obtained both from defendents and witnesses by highly questionable means." [The final solution [1968] by G. Reitlinger. page 548] Question: The 'Americans' tortured defendents. Shouldn't it call into question the validity of confessions given in previous trials? Question: If the Americans tortured defendents on such a scale, what did the British, and the Communists do? -- Jeff --------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the mountains of truth you never climb in vain.
