Mr Curtis, I have observed you for a while and it was easy to classify you: most of the time, you can't provide arguments. You are not a 'brain' here, someone who is doing research on their side, someone who will visit librairies to find a rebutall. In short, a troll. Your preferate tactic is to 'ask evidence', always and always, even when this evidence was offered to you months before. It is the easiest method: asking references, even for banalities, and fake that those references were not given to you few weeks after. Because it's the quicker and laziest approach. I know your game. I gave the reference on the zundel site. So read it or shut up.

Again, a lot of Jews were still there at the end of the war (and emigrated later to 4 continents were they could expect better economic conditions often) despite the Nazis had largelly the time to kill all of them. Again, Himmler equate explicitelly ausrotten with evacuation at the begining of his speech. He is often refering to jews as saboteurs, partisans, and if I consider the explanation that killing several Jews, removing all their goods, uprooting them is, indeed, 'killing the jewry', this sounds different. I know that Frank and several Nazi leaders loved to show their musles with such declarations. However, let me remind you this thing, that I said to Ken Lewis recently: Nizkor use the excerp where Goebbels describe how 60% of the Jews are liquidated in the process of evacuation. Nowhere in the diary the gas chamber are mentionned. The way Goebbels talk about it, it seems that he was shown reports about what happened at a specific moment when the Jews were evacuated >from Lublin. Clearly something odd happened. Probably that several were gunn machined. Perhaps sme others were used to walk in mine's fields and remove them when they exploded with it. I don't know. But during a certan period, in a specific location, we are sure that several Jews were liquidated for their race, not for anti-Nazi activities. They use also an irrelevant excerp of the 6 march 1942 where Goebbels state that the greater the number of Jews liquidated, the more consolidated will the situation in Europe after the war. 'Irrelevant' here, because in the peragraph above Goebbels described the actions of sabotage in russia and jewish partisans. Now, the excerp Nizkor doesn't mention: march 7,1942 I read a detailed report from the SD and police regarding a final solution of the Jewish question. Any final solution involves a tremendous number of viewpoints. The Jewish question must be solved within a Pan-European frame. There are 11 million Jews still in Europe. They will have to be concentrated later, to begin with, in the east. Possibly and island, such as Madagascar, can be assigned to them after the war. In any case there can be no peace in Europe untill the last Jews are eliminated from the continent. (the goebbels diaries, Louis P Lochner, 1948) page 138, march 19: Finally we talked about the Jewish question: here the fuhrer is as uncompromissing as ever. Jews must be got out of Europe, if necessary by applying most brutal methods. The Luther memorendum, written in august 1942: [...] to the governments there as to whether they wanted to recall their Jews from Germany in due time or to agree to their deportation to the ghettos in the East. To the issuance of this instruction agreement [...] The German Legation in Bucharest reports with reference to D lll 602 Secret, that the Rumanian Gouvernment would leave it to the Reich Government to deport their Jews along with the German Jews to ghettos in the East. They are not interest in having the Rumanian jews return to Rumania. [...] The Legation in Bratislava reported with reference to D lll 661 Secret that the Slovak Government is fundamentally in agreement with the deportation to the eastern ghettos. But the Slovak claims to the proper- ty of these Jews should not be endammaged. [...] The intended deportations are a further step forward on the way of the total solution and are in respect to the other countries (Hungary) very important. The deportation to the Government General is a temporary measure. The Jews will be moved on further to the occupied Eastern Territories as soon as the technical conditions for it are given. And the list is long. A 'coding terminology'? You mean that Goebbels used a 'coding terminology' in his own diary the 7 march while he considered, 6 weeks after Wansee that the last step of the final solution could be an ultimate deportation to Madagascar for the Jews deported earlier in eastern ghettos? That the 19 march he said that the fuhrer considered that Jews must leaves Europe if necessary by brutal means? Why Luther would have use a coding terminology (eastern ghettos) to describe 'gassing operations' in a report that was not massivelly distributed, a report that was classified in a file? why did he add that Jews should be move further east later? Goebbel wasn't aware about a systematic extermination policy: he was aware about atrocities at a specific moment, but day by day according to his mood he could say that his wish was to exterminate the Jews while another day he could see them as still there at the end of the war. Because there was no extermination policy that was clearly decided: the only clear decision was to deport Jews in the east. The atrocities were due to the lattitude left to the local SS commandant. Goebbels hadn't in the mind a definitive project for the Jews kind off: we will kill all of them. If this had been the case, there wouldn't be so much survivors. Can you explain, if really you believe that things are so simple, why Goebbel stated those things the 7 march? Can you explain the way Luther explained the solution to the jewish problem? The brutal treatment of the Jews looks to me like the brutal treatment of the muslin hinduish who were expelled from this country while several were killed on the way to Pakistan or like the atrocities commited by the zionist for Ramleh, Lydda Deir Yassine and several other places where the palestinian were partly killed while others were expelled following the Israeli's lebensraum policy. Just the numbers differs. First, because the war was shorter in that case, second, because the israelis didn't suffer millions of casualties that could have push them further in the escalation of atrocities.

If you consider the arab minory's vote, it would be something like 60% or close for Netanyahu. And Rabin wasn't really neither a pacifist.

I've give engilsh-german dictionnaries and french-german dictionnaries were there was no specification for the livings. What I didn't post is an example of a german-german dictionnary where there's no specification for the livings, simply because I've not access here to as much dictionnaries than Nele and I can't selectivelly skip those where this specification is not given.

He was speaking his native language, Mr. Beaulieu. Unlike you, he >knew exactly what the word meant. You refered later to a comparison with cat and dogs also. This is ridiculous. I've use the word cat and dog hundreds of times more than the word eradication in my life. The words mean literraly wipe-out and is certanly not more current in german than the word eradiquer in french. I don't know if Himmler knew this specification about the livings or not. Perhaps he knew but chose to use it in a its litteral sense. Perhaps he didn't. Per Butz, who is half german, considered that as a possibility but had a preference for a forgery back those days. His vision of the final solution involved less killings than what I think but I don't believe that this expelling program was a pacific one always. I gave Ingrid's opinion, Irving's opinion, Bjorn's opinion but you will still claim in a month that nobody who is fluent in German has ever claim that Ausrotten could mean somethings else. If, the only times in my life that I used a word like 'eradiquer', I used it in connection to the removal of insects from an appartment, indeed, the 'real' sense here is killing for the living despite the word itself means 'removal'. If I would hate a people for racial reasons like Himmler did, qualified this people often as a nuisable vermin, and lead an uprooting program where violence is tolerate, the use of 'eradiquer' wouldn't mean necessarelly 'killing all of them'. Himmler equated evacuation to ausotten at the begining of the speech. Morever, he's talking in the same speech about jewish sabotage. As rblackmore pointed out recently, it is a monumental absurdity to think that Himler had in the mind the extermination of all the Jews across Europe in october 1943: Germany was loosing the war. He knew that french Jews, Hungarian Jews, Rumanian Jews couldn't be deported for 'extermination', because of the logistic that it required, because there was problem with several of those governments and because there was no extermination program. Himmler wasn't that crazy. The only sense 'destroying this people' could have in his mind was about massive represails in the east against partisans but also hostage executions. The first German preoccupation was to resist to the soviet army and to eliminate any inside threat. I'm tired about it now, I've said what I had to say, including comments about Goebbels diary, the Luther memorendum and other stuff in a post to Jamie McCarthy. You can reply, but I think we turn in round. I prefer to stop it here and to go on another topic, probably Hans Munch testimony or either Suchomel testimony.

I don't believe he'll be angry because I use it, but I like also this explanation: rblackmore: ************************************************************ Nazis. Obviously at this late date Germany was losing the war and Himmler knew it, according to Van Pelt in his new book on Auschwitz. He also obviously knew that France, Italy, and Hungary's vast Jewish population was not deported and would never BE deported, so the idea that he was exterminating all Jews is a non-sequitor. This reference only makes sense in the context of the partisan war, where partisan bands were composed of men, women, and youngsters. One band alone might number 11,000 individuals. The bloody business he refers to where the men "knew" what it was like to see thousands of bodies again should be taken in context. A speech to military officers who are accustomed to seeing the horrors of war, as well as reprisals against the enemy. The French also announced a policy of reprisals when they occupied Germany: for every Frenchman killed, they would kill 5 Germans. ***************************************************************** Now the replied I wrote before to get his post: >> Again, Himmler >> equate explicitelly ausrotten with evacuation at the begining of his speech. >"We have the moral right, we had the duty to our people to do it, >to kill this people who would kill us." I'm not contesting that several Jews were killed by the Nazis. I'm not con- testing the authenticity of Gobbels diary. The whole Goebbels diary, not just the excerps that I would selectivelly use because they match my theory. The whole diary. My purpose is not, like you, to skip the elements in it which do not match my views. Such kind of statements exist in the Nazi rhetoric, sometimes, as they were existing in other situations where a man want to show his musles in a speech. So Himmler say in a speech 'we have the moral right so destroy (or kill) this people'? He was aware about atrocities that were commited. This doesn't transform an expelling program on the paper into an official extermination policy. The Nazis were not writting the contrary of their thoughts: when they wrote deportation to eastern ghettos, this was what they had in the mind. Never any credible explanation was given about the so-called 'coding terminology'. Such a statement doesn't proove gas chambers. If there is contradictory datas that do not match your theory, than you can't run away and say 'Himmler's declaration abolish the Luther memorendum, the excerps of Goebbels diary I decided to not mention on my site, the Stroop report, the letter that Goerring wrote, and so on. Again, I'm not contesting that a fraction of the Jews were liquidated, in the case of Lublin especially but there's a ground for uncertanty about the total fraction for the whole war if we account for diseases, progroms from the Balts, Ukrenians, and so on. There's also a lot who survived to Nazis persecutions. The picture that the Nazis had of them wasn't one of an innocent people who was not a threat. They knew that several Jews were involved in partisan activities. There was blind retaliations, represails. >In other words, if you squint your eyes, tilt your head, and pretend he meant >something different, then it doesn't look so bad. >Open your eyes wide: >"We have the moral right, we had the duty to our people to do it, >to kill this people who would kill us." Open your eyes wide: Should I include to that the Steengracht document mention by Butz on page 219 where it is clear that on 20 august 1943 the general Hildebrandt ask to the German administrations of eastern ghettos to not employ Jews for clerk's work, and where he's alarm by rumours about sexual relation between germans and jewesses for the uprooted Jews in the east?

Lines: 152 Message-ID: <50eq5n$sap@Vir.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: ipdyne25.vir.com Thanks to Alexander Baron, who revided the first page of the text to correct grammatical errors This post is 50% based on a study from Enrique Aynat , the remaining by either personnal research either Butz findings. First of all, the usual statement that the Germans have tried to keep secret their extermination policy is completely ridiculous. This 'attempt to preserve the secret' is often used to explain why the high level German documents captured by the Allies refer to the 'Final Solution' as a program for the expulsion of the Jews from Europe. The Auschwitz complex was built close to an important agglomeration. Many ci- vilians worked there during the day and went home in the evening. On page 62 of his 1993 study 'Les Crematoires d'Auschwitz', the anti-Revisionist author Jean-Claude Pressac (who uses German documents) writes: "For the Birkenau cremator- ies, the Germans gave the contracts to 12 civilian enterprises [...] Each working site was employed between 100 and 150 workers, a third of them civilians." The number of ovens was growing with years with the expansion of the camp, and the maintenance was unavoidable. Auschwitz was critical for the Allies: Synthetic rubber production was important for the Americans, and it is not surprising that many air photo missions concerning this camp took place. The huge backwardness of the Americans concerning the fabrication of synthetic rubber after the lost of their usual source in Malaysia in 1941-42 didn't permit them any choice: they had to know everything about Auschwitz, and there's no doubt that they took measures to pick up as much information as possible. We know, that the Americans had broken the German military codes. Over two and a half years there was no mention of mass gassing in any intercept in spite of the Germans being unaware that their codes had been cracked. But there is even more, in 'The Terrible Secret', the Jewish historian Walter Laqueur gives some hints in spite of being no manner of Revisionist. From him we learn (page 25), that Auschwitz was an archipelago, that thousands of inmates were frequently shipped to annex camps, mixed with civilians across Silesia, that hundreds of civilians were working at Auschwitz 1, that journa- lists were travelling freely in this region...This is the same author who says that there were hundreds of liberations in 1942-4, among them several Jews (page 169). But also there were hundreds of escapes in those years! In 'The Final Solution', Reitlinger talks also of a a radio receiver that was active in the inmate barracks over a period of months. Admiral Canaris, chief of the counter-spying agency of the Third Reich, was a double agent. He gave much information to the Allies during the war, but said nothing about alleged mass liquidations at Auschwitz. There was organised resistance in the camps. Groups of communists, Jews and others were able to send information out of the camp. A fairly accurate picture of this resistance is given by the book 'Fighting Auschwitz'. As stated, it was impossible for the Germans to avoid some contacts between the inmates and the local population. Many Poles were, indeed, members of the resistance, and some inmates had conversations with local populations when they were brought out of Auschwitz to execute miscellaneous labour tasks. Sometimes these civilians hid food and for the inmates. Often, the SS in charge of the commandos were faking ignorance about those things in exchange for food or gifts. (See for example Garlinski, 'Fighting Auschwitz', pages 43-5). The contacts with the local population were developed in such a way that letters and parcels could be sent out of the camp by the internal resistant cells of Birkenau and Auschwitz on a regular basis. A group of the Cracovia resistance was in regular touch via letters. In this town were preserved 350 of those letters, 'a small fraction of a very much more important total' (Langbein, 'Hommes et femmes a Auschwitz', page 252). Letters successfully reached the Netherlands also. In spite of this, such records are used to endorse the extermination claim. As Butz pointed out, quoting L. Dawidowicz in her intro- ductory chapter (page 221): "One impediment was inadequacy of Jewish documentation in spite of its enormous quantity... The absence of vital subjects from the records may be explained by the predicament of terror and censorship; yet, lacking evidence to corroborate or disprove, the historian will never know with certainty whether that absence is a consequence of an institutional decision not to deal with such matters or whether it was merely a consequence of prudent policy not to mention such matters. The terror was so great that even private personal diaries, composed in Yiddish or Hebrew, were written circumspectly, with recourse to Scripture and the Talmud as a form of esoteric expression and self-imposed reticence." Garlinski mention also this story about the radio transmitter/receiver which was active over 7 months in 1942 in Auschwitz and due to its contacts, the direction of the Silesia local AK ceil (Armia Krajowa) was soon able to find the wavelength used by the transmitter. (Garlinski, 'Fighting Auschwitz', page 126). The Armia Krajowa, or the interior (or secret) army was formed in 1942 from a previous resistance movement. It was organised like a real army. In 1944 the AK could count on about 300,000 members. In Birkenau there was a secret organisation created in April 1942 by Colonel Karcz. Contact between the Birkenau organisation and the main camp of Auschwitz took place on a daily basis. The main task of the Karcz group was to provide information to the AK elements outside. In 1942 the organisation of W. Pilecki, an ex-Polish officer, could count on 1000 members between Auschwitz and Birkenau (Garlinski, 'Fighting Auschwitz', pages 97-8). In 1942-43 the resistant groups in Auschwitz were so powerful that they controlled the Hospital, the kitchens, the main office and had their agent in key positions. The activity of the resistance in the camp had a specific purpose: feed the Polish government in exile with exhaustive information about the events that were occurring in the Nazi camps. The AK could count also on the complicity of a few SS to transmit some messages outside (Garlinski, 'Fighting Auschwitz', pages 206-8). But often, messages were simply transmitted with the liberation of inmates (Laqueur, 'The Terrible Secret', page 169 and Garlinsi, 'Fighting Auschwitz', pages 54-5 & 112). Communications between Poland and London were relatively easy for the Resis- tance. The general Bor-Komorowski, commandant of the AK, said that clandestine radio messages were regularly transmitted to London and that for the year 1942-43-44, there were almost 300 such messages per month. (T. Bor-Komorowski, 'The secret Army', page 150). Another source of information was the microfilms which were sent to London on a monthly basis. The Polish Resistance had about 100 radio transmitters which were able to reach England. But other messages were brought by newsmongers who were travelling to Sweden (neutral) and then Great Britain. Recently I obtained a copy of one of the most notorious Revisionist pamphlets: 'The Auschwitz Lie', by Thies Christophersen. Christophersen is an ex-German officer who had worked in one of the camps peripheral to Auschwitz: Raisenko. This booklet is not notorious not because one could qualify it as a big scien- tific contribution to Revisionism, it's just a small pamphlet where an officer talks about his personnel experiences, (he visited Birkenau several times in 1944). The notoriety of this pamphlet, published in 1973, is mainly due to a false reference that can be found: a fictive Red Cross report that is supposed to claim that no more than 300,000 Jews died in WWII. Because of that, 'The Auschwitz Lie' received immediately the status of 'Bible of the Revisionists', and one still finds frequent reference in European books or magazine to this pamphlet and this fictive reference with the development (hint as sth): this is the Bible of the Revisionists, it contains a lie, so the Revisionist are just liars and it is a good thing that Revisionist material is banned since the public must be protected against those lies by people who will tell them what they must read. What amazed me the first time I took a look at it wasn't the fact that this false reference was just an isolated one among several others that were valid, it was to see that Christophersen didn't invent it: he just quoted a real Brazilian newspaper that didn't check before publishing this report about the 'Red Cross Report'. Anyway, from Christophersen, we learn that SS families were able to visit the soldiers without any major problems in Auschwitz. We learn too that inmates from Birkenau were frequently shipped to other camps and could establish contact with the local population. This fact, as I said, was subsequently confirmed by the anti-Revisionist historian Laqueur. Now, first statement: Hoess, in his 'confession', supposedly given without any coercion, testified that when Himmler ordered him to establish a program of mass extermination in his camp (a verbal order to keep the secret) he received also instructions not to discuss it with Gluecks, general inspector of the camps, because absolute secrecy was necessary. Can you believe that?

(Repost) Date: 2 Sep 1996 14:16:40 GMT Organization: Communications Vir, Internet Access Montreal. Lines: 145 Message-ID: <50eq88$sap@Vir.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: ipdyne25.vir.com We will take a look now at the usual propaganda over the war. The american Arthur Butz, especially, was the first to do an exhaustive inquiry about it. What is clear from his review of american newspapers is that the propaganda about mass extermination started as sson as 1942. It was mainly statements made by zionist officials, Chaim Weizman among others, that were often related to an appeal for the opening of Palestine to jewish immigration. Several camps or atrocities are mentionned, Belzec, Chelmo, Sobibor, Treblinka, and the accusations take miscellaneous forms: jews who are shot, report about mass electrocution of jews in Belzec, gasing methos in Treblinka, poison, sometimes the use of wagons were lethal gas is used. It looks like the usual scrap that any war is normally generating: propaganda. Several of those accusations were drop after the war. I was able to find recently a rare book: 'the black book of the polish jewry', publish at the end of 1943. This book is totally consistent with the war propaganda that can be found in the newspapers: Chelmo, Treblinka, story of atrocities, in some cases details: 250 jewish children allegedly killed in a jewish sanatorium, elsewhere 50 jews executed in a township, the book is a collection of war propaganda, probably a mix of thruth an falsehoods, an over few hundreds pages we have an idea of what kind of stories were used by several jewish organisations which had their large network of informant across Europe. Nowhere Auschwitz is mention, despite the mass gasing of jews is supposed to have start in the spring of 1942. The index, that contains a large amount of places were atrocities are allegedly comitted, do not contain the name of Auschwitz. Several minor stories, but nothing about the gasing of hundreds of thousand of jews there. Enrique Aynat made a deep inquiry with the review published by the polish government in exile in London, the 'Polish fighting review'. It is similar stuff. Several stories about atrocities against jews were put in circulation by this review ( the informations were received in the same way that what was explained earlier, from the A.K.) but Auschwitz appear just few times before 1945. But there's more: when it appear, it is not in connection with mass gasing of jews. It is about case of torture, hard work, the tough conditions of the inmates who have to work for the military production. An example of that can be find in the 1 july 1942 article (n0 47) where it is mention that the German use syringue to kill prisonners of Bikernau. There's a base of thruth: the method was at least used for the dying prisonners who were affect by the catastrophic typhus epidemy of 1942, but there's no evidence that it was use to liquidate them because of an extermination policy: euthanasy was the real purpose. In several other articles during 2 years, very 'low level' details about some inmates who died are given, and in a case it is say that few hundred russian prisonners were gased at a specific date. What is astonishing here is that over 2 years and a half, the systematic murder of hundreds of thousands of jews seems to be ignored while the polish resistance is suppose to be aware of a single gasing of russian pows at a time. There is also a reference to the gasing of polish childrens at the end of 1943, despite today we never speak about the gasing of poles. But among the huge amount of propaganda that was published over those years, this is all. Before the mid 1944, the atrocities were generally not concerning Auschwitz and when it was th case, the mass gasing of jews was not mention. I said a couple of weeks ago that perhaps I saw once such a story, but I'm unsure if I've not dream it. The story about the mass gasing of jews in Auschwitz began really in the summer of 1944 in the allied newspapers, and then we can say that the persons who were spreading the atrocities stories had no choice: the other camps were shut down several months before. First remark: such stories are not 'a proof' of mass gasing, simply because propaganda and false accusations were always a part of war, and second because those accusations were made in connection with a call to allied countries for negotiations with germans. The zionist leaders of that time had clearly an objective in the mind: put pressure on the British and force them to allow the opening of the Palestine borders to jewish immigration. Israel was not existing yet, and the arabs were the majority there. Several declarations in the newspapers let no ambiguity about it. Second remark: the real problem is that it is hard to believe that such mounstruous events, the gasing of hundreds of thousand of jews over 2 years, could be absent of publications like the 'black book of the Polish jewry' while minor stories about the executions of 50 jews in a small township are present. That book was publish expresselly for the sake of propaganda, to talk exhaustivelly about the anti jewish persecutions. And it is not because Auschwitz was 'secret'. We can have a clear indication of that with the anti-revisionnist author Martin Gilbert in 'Auschwitz and the allied', p 340. After an exhaustive review of the documentation, he conclude that Auschwitz was absent of the war propaganda before the mid 1944. There it's like to say that events like those that happend in Rwanda did exist over 2 years but that despite information was collected on a daily based by A.K. agents in Bikernau and Auschwitz 1, nobody seem aware of it. Imagine 2 Rwandas over 2 years and nobody within that country noticed anything during this period except at the end. Third remark: such an absence of propaganda would be more acceptable for camps like Belzec, simply because those one were isolated, there was not an important towniship beside, there was not hundreds of civilians who worked there, inmates were not frequently reshiped in the vicinity of the camps and able to have contact with civilians, Belzec was not of any strategical importance for the american since it hadn't any Buma plan industry: the inmates were suppose to arrive there and to be killed quickly, nothing else. But what we have in the WWII propaganda is the opposite: no possible secret for Auschwitz, but it is there that an unexplanable silence was keepen. It must be say also that according to the post war confessions, Auschwitz was suppose to be the 'metropol' of the extermination, the main camp. At Nuremberg, the bulk of the extermination story was built on Auschwitz. Fourth remark: The story about the 'revelation of the secret' is of an uncommensurable absurdity. The WRB report, published in 1944, is suppose to be an accurate description of the nature of Auschwitz. The american press revealed that 2 inmates escaped and were able to go in Switzerland to give a very accurate description of the gassing procedure and the installations in Auscwitz. The authors of the WRB report stayed anonymous during 16 years despite it had be more credible to present those ones immediatelly. They stayed anonymous for 16 years and the jewish writter Reitlinger was a bit bothered in the first edition of the final solution about this fact but those ones were produced before the second edition of his book 150 miles away from his Sussex domicile (London). Rudolph Vrba, author of a best seller a bit later, 'I cannot forgive'. Vrba is suppose to had the false identity of Walter Rosenberg in Auschwitz despite he wrote that the other inmates called him 'Rudi'. Several, a lot of contradictions exist in Vrba's 'memories', and Alexander Baron talk about it in the book he wrote. Vrba affirmations were so contradictory that he was obligated to admit that he lied at the Zundel trial. Just those contradictions could take few hundreds lines. Let say just that when I read Vrba's book, I saw that his escape had a specific purpose: give a warn to the whole world about the fate of the jews in Auschwitz, 'breaking the secret' in other words. One have just to read the previous message to realize that it is ridicoulous. There was hundreds of escapes and liberations before him Despite the inconsistences in his testimony, Vrba's credibility is essantial. The defenders of the legend can conceed that an obscur eye witness could have lie, but Vrba is a kind of detonnator, a domino: since he talk about his entertainment with F. Muller at the camp, since the key eyewitness Sonderkommando F. Muller said also that he spoke with Vrba several times in Auschwitz, if one of the testimony is false, the other collapse. If Vrba testimony is false, then one would have to explain why the real authors of the WRB report never challendge Vrba's story. And then we would conclude that the WRB report wasn't writen by an ex-inmate but by higher rank propagandist who had a large amount of datas available: this is where the story began.

There are numerous omissions and half-truths in this reply, but I'll only point out a couple of the most egregious: Releases were rare in the preliminary period (do you refer here to 1941??), but there was 952 in the first 6 months of 1942 and 36 and the other 6 months, not all from Birkenau but since there was communications between both camps, only a couple was suffisant. You forget an essential part, the emettor receiver which was in activity the fall of 1942. Finally, there was _no need_ to find someone trustable about the gassing story, simply because such precautions had to be taken for other kind of material. An inmate of Auschwitz 1 or Birkenau who was released or who escaped (hundreds for 1942-43) couldn't have shut up because the resistance in the camp didn't provide him documents. >Mr. Beaulieu also writes: >>Communications between Poland and London were relatively easy for the >Resistance. >He neglects to note what Garlinski states about the time lag involved >in such communications.

(Garlinski, p. 79). 4 months for a letter wasn't and exception. But as I said, there was about 300 radio messages which were sent at speed light to London every month by the A.K. It is the long messages containing important informations which were bring that way, because they feared an interception. The German were able to listen those communications. It is true that the letters took weeks before to reach London, but not necessarelly as much as 4 months. >Mr. Beaulieu also writes: >>What is astonishing here is that over 2 years and a half, the >systematic murder of hundreds of thousands of jews seems to be >ignored while the polish resistance is suppose to be aware of a >single gasing of russian pows at a time.

I'll check your reference later and comment, but a date like august 1943 leaves a year and a half or close to it. I'll see later and come back with this. But your story on a first glance seems weird, since a large amount of publicity was given about Treblinka and the other camps.

I dont know if Sereny reported 100% correctly her interview with Speer, but anyway she certanly didn't invent everything. First point, as I have repeated and repeated and repeated: there was Jews who were murdered. It is a certanty to me. As I said, I accept the Goebbels diary. The uprooting program wasn't a pacific one. It is obvious to me that Hitler in private entertainments never said: Oh, those nice Jews, how about getting them back? I know also that never in a private enterteinment Hitler ever mention gas chambers. There wasn't. As I said also, Speer wasn't the same one... no, I will not repost always and always here the same paragraphs. He would have been hang? Perhaps. But several Nazi leaders, including Goerring, denied any knowledge of it and were hang. The fact is simply that Speer couldn't 'confess' a thing that he didn't know. I'm not claiming here that Speer wasn't aware about that or that atrocity and that he shut up at Nuremberg. It's quite probable that he eared about rumors like 'x thousands of Jews in Poland were shot', and such things. rblackmore posted at least twice the testimony of Frank, were the man asked to Hitler if the allied rumors about the extermination of Jews were true or false. I'm almost sure that Speer didn't tell everything he eared about in Nuremberg. This doesn't mean that he was aware a global extermination policy with or without gas chambers. The bulk of your proof is based upon interpretation of what appear to be carefull declarations of Speer that you immediatelly translate into an admission. There's big chances that Speer believed the post war propaganda. He was pragma- tic. His will wasn't to be a martyr but to rehabilitate himself in the eye of the Germans. However, I consider that what Speer could feel in the Nazi circles, hate against Jews, brutal declarations from man like Heydrich or Goebbels like 'if those bastards die a day, that's a good thing!', such thing that were certanly said, had an influence on him. The 'admission' of Speer, accounting for the fact that he was certanly aware about some atrocities, is _nothing else_ than the evolution of a man who was pragmatic, who knew that it was to his advantage to not disatisfy the Jewish circles who asked him this 'service' accounting for his past and the reputation he tried to rebuilt, a man who could, who had probably a guilt feeling toward jews if he believed the post war propaganda, and even if he believed it only in part. The fact is simply that in all the stuff you gave, I have to rely upon an 'exegete' on your side who explain me that Speer's declarations were more than a post war feeling based upon the violent anti-jewish rhetoric in the Nazi circles rather than a declaration like: 'I always knew that there was gas chambers, we were talking often about it'. Looking away he said. Thanks to the exeget K. Lewis, another coding terminology I suppose? Goerring, a man, who was supposed to be much more aware about those things due to his position in the Reich, had a quite different opinion. Gilbert, the psychologist of the Nuremberg prison, reported this private exchange he had with Goerring (Butz, p.177) 'Those atrocity films!' Goering continued. 'Anybody can make an atrocity film if they take corpses out of their graves and then show a tractor shoving them back again' 'You can't brush it off that easily', I replied. 'We did find your concentra- tion camp fairly littered with corpses and mass graves - I saw them myself in Dachau and Hadamar.' 'Oh, but but not piled up by the thousands like that' 'Don't tell me what I didn't see! I saw corpses literally by the carload' 'Oh, that one train' '-And piled up like cordwood in the crematorium - and half starved and mutilated prisoners, who told me how the butchers had been going on for years - and Dachau was not the worst by far! You can't shrug off 6,000,000 murders! '-Well, I doubt it was 6,000,000,', he said despondently, apparently he had started the argument. 'But as I've always said, it is sufficient if only 5 percent of it is true' A glum silence followed. The question of the camps in Germany is another one, but really, I found little in your response if we talk about more than atrocities, an extermination policy with or without gas chambers.

In other words, I was right: here's the post to wich I refered and who he responded with the words above. ********************************************************************* My first intention was to complete that with some further references, but since I've few time I prefer to give only a fragment, the begining of Walter Sanning 'The dissolution of Eastern European Jewry'. Yale will say that this is a fraudulent reference since it is revisionist, but since I give also the neutral references he used, thatn Yale will have to point which one are fraudulent. W. Sanning:p.91 The Jewish population was accorded a very special attention within the framework of the Soviet clearing measures. The Zionist Institute of Jewish Affairs (Institute) wrote for instance: In numerous cities and towns, p[articularly in the Ukraine and White Russia, Jews were among the first to be evacuated. [(Institute of Jewish affairs, 'Hitler's ten-year war on the Jews, New York, 1943 , p 186)] The reason for this preferential treatment was seen by the Institute to be connected with the high percentage of Jews in the Soviet administration, among the office and blue-collar workers and the intelligentsia; it added; For this reason, despite the Army's urgent need for transportation, thousands of trains were provided for evacuation. Thus, not only were hundreds of thousands of human lives saved, but military highways were quickly cleared of millions of refugees. The Institute emphasized that there was no shortage of time to remove the civilian population, especially in the larger cities such as Kiev, Odesa, Smolensk, etc: ... there was time enough to evacuate the civilian population. [(Institute of Jewish affairs, 'Hitler's ten-year war on the Jews, New York, 1943 , p 186)] The technica prerequisites had been met and the same means of transportation which brought the masses of the Red Army to the western front, were used on their return trip for the evacuation and the deportation of the civilian population. Also, one must assume that the Soviets, following their own example of the spring of 1940 when they deported the Polish Jewish refugees from Eastern Poland to Siberia, were not overly concerned with the comfort of the population scheduled to be removed. Shitomir, which contained 50,000 Jes before the war, was presented by the institute as an example of the relatively high percentage of Jews evacuated. Of theses, 44,000 (88%) left with the Soviet troops; considering that 53,000 of the 95,000 inhabitants (minimum) of Shitomir had been evacuated, the Jewish share amounted to four-fifths of all evacuees! [(Institute of Jewish affairs, 'Hitler's ten-year war on the Jews, New York, 1943 , p 186)] Minsk, too, confirms Zionist reports of a preferential treatment accorded the Jews by the Soviets in the evacuation program. After the occupation of Minsk within the first few days of the war, General Halder found no more than 100,000 of the former population of 240,000 (1939); the rest had fled, been evacuated or deported. [ Reitlinger, the final solution, p 223] Kube, the German Reich Commissar for White Russia, stated that all but a few thousands of the Jews of Minsk had gone with the Red Army [(Institute of Jewish affairs, 'Hitler's ten-year war on the Jews, New York, 1943 , p 186)] Before the war, there were approximately 90,000 Jews in Minsk [ Encyclopaedia Judaica, vol 11, p 57 ] Assuming that the words 'few thousands' refer to 5,000, we obtain the following picture: About 60% of all evacuees (85,000 of 140,000) were Jews even though they constitued only 38% of the population. A Soviet Union specialist, Joshua Rothenberg of the Brandeis University put it bluntly: Much of the Jewish population of the conquered territories escaped annihilation by fleeing before the invading armies arrived [ Rothenberg, Joshua: "Jewish Religion in the Soviet Union", The Jews in Soviet Russia since 1917 (Lionel Kochan, Ed) London, 1970, p172] [...] Of Vitebsk's 100,000 Jews only 22,000 remained behind according to a report by the Soviet Jewish author David Bergelson of the Jewish Anti-Fascist committee in the Moscow newspaper Eynikeyt dated 9/5/1942. Reitlinger, who estimated the number of Jews in Soviet White Russia (borders of 1941) at 861,000, said the Germans found no more than 172,000 of them [ Reitlinger, The Final Solution, p 498] Kishinev in Bessarabia was occupied by the Axis on July 17, 1941. The Rumanian count of August 16, 1941, however found only 201 Jews of the former 70,000 living there before the war. Publikationsstelle Wien. Die Bevolkerungszahlung in Rumanien 1941 (Geheim), Vienna, 1943, p.73 [...] No wonder that David Bergelson was able to declare that at the end of 1942 80% of the Jews in the conquered areas had been evacuated. He continued in the Moscow newspaper Eynikeyt of December 5, 1942 [...] Those operations started even before the German invasion, simply because Staline didn't trust Hitler and had already in the mind to move as much as possible the machinery and the qualified labor toward east. Now Yale, if you claim that Sanning invented those sources, or one or two of it, I wonder why Wiesenthal spend so much time to promote censorship rather than to blast Sanning's credibility. If it's so easy to demolish his claims by other means, why?

The fact that statements done by Jewish officials during the war on the evacuation of Jews contradict several of those reports (when the number evacuate from a city leaves less Jews than what a report claim). I still don't know neither if the biggest one, the one which deals with the extermination of 363,000 Jews or somewhat is initial by Himmler. On the page where the claim occur there's a small handwritten notification but I still don't know if it's supposed to be Himmler's initials. I'll email that one to D.

I read l'empire SS, from Speer, which is the translation of one of the books he wrote, but I dont know which one since I read no one of him in english. There was at least 2 chapters were he talked about the jewish question and he quoted Nuremberg documents. I don't remember to have seen anything else then that and this is what stroke me since he was close to Hitler, he didn't seems to have first hand information. I learned later that he claimed to be unaware about an extermination program in Nuremberg. In the other book I quoted. >> Because he claimed himself that he was unaware: see the book "l'immoprtalite >> du pouvoir' above. > No. What he has said is that he deliberately ignored it.

And in the Spandau journal, you wrote: "It is at the latest in 1939 > that I should have guess their fate. After 1942, I should have know" I should have know was 'j'aurais du le savoir', or something like 'I didn't know but it's my fault'. Furthermore, the interviewer (when I took that from my photocopies a week ago I think it was Mathias Schmitdt) stated: at Nuremberg, you claimed that you were aware about anything. There's many way to explain why Speer didn't say 'You are wrong! I claimed that I knew!. 1) Maybe Schmidt forced Speer to give this interview with a gun 2) Maybe Schmidt rung at the wrong house and got an interview with Volwgang Shultz who found this mistake so funny that he decided to play the game because it could give him a funny tale for his cammarades at the saussage factory. 3) Maybe this interview was a sick joke from Speer 4) May be Speer died in jail and was replaced by a double. Now Yale, if Speer stated at Nuremberg that he knew about the gasing of Jews, give the stuff! I know from this book that somewhere, either in court, either out court, during the trials, he said that he was unaware. If I'm wrong, give me the quotation and the Nuremberg volume, and I'll retract my statement and send a letter to ask Schmidt which one of the four possibilities is the real one. All I know up to now is that decades after Speer wrote in a book or said in a statement in S.Africa something like: >The Gauleiter of Lower Silesia, Karl Hanke, visited me in the Summer >of 1944. Hanke had distinguished himself with his bravery in the >Polish and French campaigns. He was certainly no man who would be >frightened easily.

In other words, this story apparently appeared decades after and not at Nuremberg. And the way Speer gave it decades after, there's no mention of gassing in Hanke testimony (if he really said that, if Speer remembered correctly after decades, see above).

But then again, maybe you have no >problem with it. You're a "revisionist scholar", are you not... I'm not, if you mean by that somebody who has a an academical background in that field. My statement was based on 2 revisionist authors, the first of them Staeglich. In 'Le mythe d'Auscwhitz', Staeglich described extensivelly the trial and speaks about Baer. I went back in the book and one of his statements is that this appeared in the french press back those days. Unfortunatelly, he doesn't give a specific date, and since he probably ignore french I suppose that he got that information from one of Rassinier's translation. A bit later, Staeglich said that 'we know that he expected acquittal from his wife'. No reference for this sentence, but I'm not surprised neither: when someone write a book, if he got first verbal informations or if those ones are in several newspapers that someone else read in french, he will not necessarelly put it in his book. Later again, Staeglich gives something more direct: 'what leaves one to believe that he refused to back the extermination charge, is the fact that his declarations during the pre- limineries were not read publically during the trial.' Since the purpose of this trial was to bring other proofs to charge de defendents, it is a good evidence to me that he didn't confess gas chambers during the preli- minaries. I can hardly imagine that he made positive declarations and that the prosecution 'forgot' to use it. Below again, Staeglich stated: As Langbein said, the preliminary was over the 19 october 1962 [61], in such a way that nothing could have delayed seriously the trial except the obstinacy of Baer. The trial took place only about a year later, after Baer death. The [61] reference is Langbein, but I doubt that Langbein as a hollohuger claimed nothing else in his book that the preliminaries were over in october 1962. The other author is Butz, who said that he insisted that the gas chambers were a myth (p186).At the end of the paragraph he said about his death that 'his wife considered his death rather mysterious'. He gave two references for the whole paragraph, Naumann (Auschwitz) page 8 and Emil Aretz, Hexen-Einmal Eins einer Luege, third edition, 1973. page 58. I couldn't find the first one and I know that the last one is certanly not in Montreal. So Baer's wife is quoted, and I suppose it is in the German book. If not, he got an interview with her personally. I've try to read the only french-european archives that exist here, le monde, but even between the 17 june and the 20 june 1963 Baer's death is not mention. I can try in the next two weeks for another date, when the trial started, but there's many french newspapers so really I'd have some troubles to find those french press communiques unless I find the original claim in one of Rassiniers' book, but they were not reprinted. If you want to start this game I will call you a liar each time that you'll quote an exterminationist author and say that his statement his an a priori lie. How would you like it? The best direct evidence I found in those 2 books is the fact that his statements during the preliminary were not used in court, and I find this one very good. Seconly, Butz put quotes for Baer's wife sentence, which means that very probably he took it in a book that I can't access (the second one). codoh: http://www.codoh.com/ From jfbe@vir.com Sun Sep 8 08:01:25 PDT 1996 Article: 63484 of alt.revisionism Path: nizkor.almanac.bc.ca!news.island.net!vertex.tor.hookup.net!hookup!usenet.eel.ufl.edu!news-peer.gsl.net!news.gsl.net!www.nntp.primenet.com!nntp.primenet.com!howland.erols.net!news2.digex.net!news.cais.net!op.net!news.bconnex.net!clicnet!news.clic.net!rcogate.rco.qc.ca!Rezonet.net!Vir.com!usenet From: Jean-Francois Beaulieu Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Re: What Goering Knew Date: 8 Sep 1996 01:17:37 GMT Organization: Communications Vir, Internet Access Montreal.

Now provide proof for these claims. Anyone can accuse anyone. He's a witch! > She's a witch! And soon the mob is howling, "Burn, witch, burn!" I've just read 'Nuremberg diary', written by this psychologist in Nuremberg (Gilbert) this afternoon were he reported the entertainment he had with the defendents of themain trials over weeks. Really aa claim that Goerring was 'aware' about a mass liquidation of Jews is ridicoulous. It is true that some of the defendants started to have doubts after the projection of atrocity movies but not Goerring. When Hoess testified however, even Goerring couldn't believe it and his attitude in private changed from denial to 'perhaps', but really he was obviously disturbed and his beha- viour showed that he was asking himself questions, without knowing really. Some others accepted Hoess testimony and believed that Himmler and Hitler did it alone (Frank among others). They couldn't know that Hoess was tortured, but Hoess had a big effect on several of them. Despite Frank's opinion is based on the strong impression that Hoess testimony did on him, we are told now that Frank 'knew' because he assumed a guilt feeling. In the context, Frank had an emotional shock and had already start, during his captivity, his catholic 'trip' were admissions of sins were the best way to be in agreement with God. However, since Frank's decision was based on Hoess testimony, this mean simply that he couldn't 'know' the 'gassing' during the war, but we are still given his diary as a proof of anything. We are still present 'proofs' like Speer repentance as a proof of anything whatsover, while his post war attitude, like the one of the other defendants, was based mainly on Hoess testimony. They couldn't figure that torture of a threath to deport the familly of a SS in siberia were used since there only way to compare was their own treatment (except for Streicher). Hoess was totally apathic and had probably the hope to not be turn to the Russians. But you'll see, even if the proofs about Hoess treatment were posted here often and often they will still claim that it wasn't the case. It is a strange case that Himmler decided to constitute himself prisonner, was left alone (!) and 'suicided'. He was perfectly aware about the atrocity stories that were reported, the movie 'Holocaust' show him as if he had 'discovered' suddenly that the allied were aware about is involvment(!) while such atrocities and accusations were brought for months and that he commited a suicide because he had suddenly 'realized' that the allieds could accuse him of that! Anybody of a sane mind who studied a bit this topic can see that he decided to constitute himself prisonner rather than to go in south america because he wanted to testify the truth. That is for Himmler 'suicide'. http://www.codoh.com/ From jfbe@vir.com Sun Sep 8 11:56:14 PDT 1996 Article: 63561 of alt.revisionism Path: nizkor.almanac.bc.ca!news.island.net!vertex.tor.hookup.net!hookup!news.umbc.edu!cs.umd.edu!ra.nrl.navy.mil!news.math.psu.edu!news.cse.psu.edu!uwm.edu!math.ohio-state.edu!howland.erols.net!newsxfer2.itd.umich.edu!uunet!in3.uu.net!en.com!op.net!news.bconnex.net!clicnet!news.clic.net!rcogate.rco.qc.ca!Rezonet.net!Vir.com!usenet From: Jean-Francois Beaulieu Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Re: McVay and PORNOGRAPHY Date: 8 Sep 1996 01:28:55 GMT Organization: Communications Vir, Internet Access Montreal.

Lines: 139 Message-ID: <50v3b6$arg@Vir.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: ipdyne37.vir.com Taken from a recent upgraded of A. Butz site: Vergasungskeller by Arthur R. Butz Veteran revisionists recognize that an outstanding small problem has been the "Vergasungskeller" that was evidently in or near Crematorium II at Auschwitz. Crematorium II (and its mirror image Crematorium III) had two huge underground morgues, Leichenkeller 1 (LK 1) and LK 2, and a smaller morgue LK 3. LK 1 and LK 2 were simple concrete morgues in which bodies were simply laid on the floor. A letter from the Auschwitz construction department dated 29 January 1943, when the construction of Crematorium II was nearing completion, reports that frost prohibits removal of the formwork for the ceiling of the "Leichenkeller" (without specifying which of the three is meant) but that this is unimportant, since the "Vergasungskeller" can be used for that purpose, i.e. as a morgue. The document had the number NO-4473 at the Nuremberg trials. When NO-4473 is interpreted with the help of some documents reproduced by Pressac [1], it is shown that the "Leichenkeller" is LK 2. Pressac believes that the Vergasungskeller is LK 1 and that a "slip", indeed "enormous gaff" (sic), caused the author of the document to betray the true purpose of LK 1, referring to it as a "gassing cellar" (although the usual German word for such a concept is "Gaskammer"). On no known set of engineering drawings is a "Vergasungskeller" indicated [2]. Many of those who would have us believe that there were homicidal gas chambers at Auschwitz insist on this interpretation. An interesting exception has been the Austrian-born Raul Hilberg. He cites, and even quotes from, NO-4473 in the "Killing Center Operations" chapter of The Destruction of the European Jews, but he is silent on the "Vergasungskeller". In my 1976 book The Hoax of the Twentieth Century I offered that this was a part of the crematorium building devoted to generating a combustible gas for the ovens [3]. This interpretation was linguistically correct and could be technically correct, depending on the design of the ovens. The primary meaning of "Vergasung" is gas generation or carburetion, i.e. turning something into a gas. A secondary meaning is application of a gas as in fumigation or in gas warfare. It is also the word Germans use to refer to the alleged gassing of Jews; however, they use "Gaskammer" rather than "Vergasungskammer" or "Vergasungskeller" for the facility imagined to have accomplished this. Such usage also applies in the literature on fumigation [4]. By 1989 Robert Faurisson realized that my original interpretation was wrong and later in 1989 Pressac [5] conclusively showed that it was wrong, based on the design of the cremation ovens. In 1991 Faurisson offered a theory [6] that the Vergasungskeller was a storage area, for fumigation supplies, within LK 3. In 1992 I showed that there were many ways "Vergasung" can come up in sewage treatment technology, and offered that the Vergasungskeller might be found in the sewage treatment plant next to the crematorium. However I favored the interpretation that the Vergasungskeller was simply a facility for generating fuel gas for the camp [7]. NO-4473 suggests, but does not require, that the Vergasungskeller was located within the crematorium building. The purpose of this note is to offer another interpretation which I now believe is more plausible than any earlier offered by me or anybody else. Before I do that I should remark that the problem here is what the Vergasungskeller was, not whether it was a homicidal gas chamber. Those who claim it was a homicidal gas chamber focus their attention entirely on that one word in the document. If they would instead focus on what the document says, they would realize that it is impossible to make that interpretation work. The document shows that in January 1943 the Germans were in a great rush to use the building as an ordinary crematorium. As Faurisson discussed earlier [8], during World War II the combatants paid great heed that new structures be considered, if possible, as air raid shelters. There were two principal dangers that such shelters were to provide protection against: bombs and gas attacks. On account of World War I experiences, the possibilities of the latter were taken very seriously. Indeed many simply assumed that gas would be used, despite treaties outlawing its use. Typically, a gas shelter was conceived of as a bomb shelter, preferably underground and very strong structurally, with some features added to make it secure against gas; a gas shelter had to be gas tight but allow people to breathe [9]. Since in many cases it was not economic to provide such structures for at most only occasional use, it was recognized that such shelters could exist in the form of embellishments to structures that exist for other purposes. However the number of suitable such structures was limited. For example, the typical underground cellar belongs to a building with several stories; the collapse of these in an air raid could prevent people from leaving the cellar. My proposal is that the Vergasungskeller was a gas shelter. It need not have been located within Crematorium II but I believe it most likely was, on account of the fact that Crematoria II and III, with their large concrete cellars, were obviously ideal for adaptation as air raid shelters. Indeed when this problem is looked at from the point of view of defense against air raids it seems there was no better choice at Auschwitz. The German authorities responsible for providing air raid shelters would have insisted that the necessary embellishments be made to these structures. My reading of some of the relevant chemical warfare literature convinces me that Crematoria II and III were conceived of by the Germans as having this additional role. I have never seen the word "Vergasungskeller" in a lexicon; indeed I have seen it only in discussions of NO-4473 [10] ! However I have seen two German-Russian dictionaries, one a military dictionary, that say "Gaskeller" means "gas shelter" [11]. However we should not consider ourselves bound to dictionaries on this. If one asks the question: In a World War II military context, what might "Vergasungskeller" and/or "Gaskeller" mean?, I think that "gas shelter" is the answer that comes naturally to mind, and that other meanings are somewhat strained. Of course other meanings come naturally to mind in non-military contexts. As a personal example, I can report that I have been unable to find the term "control lab" (or "control laboratory", "controls lab", "controls laboratory") in my IEEE Standard Dictionary of Electrical and Electronics Terms (edition of 1972), although every university Dept. of Electrical Engineering in the USA has a "control lab" and that is how we normally refer to such a place. I have also been unable to find the term in an unabridged Webster's, in an on-line version of the Oxford English Dictionary, and in several other dictionaries I have. If this theory is correct then we should view all three cellars in Crematorium II as air raid shelters, with only one being provided with the additional measures to make it effective as a gas shelter. That could only be LK 1, since NO-4473 implies it is not LK 2, LK 3 was very small and, conclusively, because LK 1 was the only one of the three provided with a gas-tight door [12]. Moreover while all parts of the building had motor driven air extraction systems, it appears that only LK 1 had a motor driven air intake system [13]. Pressac also believes the Vergasungskeller was LK 1; under my theory he is then right on location but wrong on function. LK 1 had the basic features of a gas shelter. Pressac admits that the air exhaust (at the bottom) and air intake (near the top) systems of LK 1 were misplaced for a gas chamber employing HCN [14]. Although HCN is only slightly lighter than air, there are various practical reasons why gas chambers employing it normally expel the gas from the top when the gassing process is completed [15]. Carbon dioxide, by contrast, is much heavier than air and is most naturally expelled from the bottom of the relevant space. Why would the author of NO-4473 not refer to a Leichenkeller as a Leichenkeller? I don't think a slip is involved. We normally do not consider ourselves bound to use only formal designations. More commonly, we refer to things according to their function or in any case the function that happens to be in mind at the time. The gas shelter features of LK 1 were its principal structural distinction from LK 2 and those features were being taken into account in the construction at the time. It was natural that LK 1 might be referred to as the gas shelter. As another example of a use of terminology suggested by function, the engineers Jährling and Messing referred to LK 2 of Crematoria II and III, during construction, via the terms "Auskleideraum" and "Auskleidekeller" (undressing room or cellar), another one of what Pressac considers "slips" that betrayed a criminal purpose [16]. This has been another point raised by those who would put a homicidal interpretation on Crematoria II and III; the victims would according to this theory undress themselves in LK 2 and then be gassed in LK 1. It seems hard to believe these were "slips" because they were so frequently committed. Jährling used this designation in a document of 6 March 1943, and then Messing used it in three documents later in March. If these were "slips", it would seem that by this time the bosses would have told them to clean up their language. They evidently didn't, because Messing used the designation in two more documents in April [17]. The truth about the undressing is much more prosaic. Pressac believes that, when the Germans viewed Crematoria II and III as ordinary crematoria, then the sequence of processing bodies was contemplated to be LK 3 to LK 2 to LK 1, but that LK 3 was eventually eliminated from the regular sequence [18]. However that may be, if the dead bodies were contemplated to start in LK 2 they would then be undressed there [19]. They would be stored in LK 1 while awaiting cremation. Presumably LK 3 was only used when a body needed some sort of special processing, e.g. dissection or the famous extraction of gold fillings from teeth. I am struck by the humorous simplicity of the theory offered here.

The mass-gassings allegedly started in may-june 1942 (anatomy of the Aus- chwitz death camp, page 212). This leaves 3 to 4 months. It is hard to say that the inmates ignored that unless you state that the S.K. were killed after each gassing operation. The transmission didn't contain anything about mass gassing simply because the A.K. didn't report anything about it that year, or the year after, while the A.K. was working with jewish organisations and spread several atrocity stories about other camps, or mass-electrocution stories. >>Finally, >> there was _no need_ to find someone trustable about the gassing story, >> simply because such precautions had to be taken for other kind of material. >> An inmate of Auschwitz 1 or Birkenau who was released or who escaped >> (hundreds for 1942-43) couldn't have shut up because the resistance in the >> camp didn't provide him documents. >Again, Mr. Beaulieu, you fail to make a crucial distinction.

I have state in the original post that those communications WERE relayed on a weekly basis to the polish resistance and back my claim with references. The fact is simply that there was difficulty for the resistance in Auschwitz- Birkenau to give documents to an inmate who was released, as you state: >secret camp organization. The risk of sending anything by someone who >was not completely trustworthy was unacceptable for the underground >and for Warsaw, as both sides would have had to reveal their secret >contact.' simply because such documents could contain informations like the name of that or that member of the A.K. in Birkenau, or that secret project from the A.K., and it is understandable that they feared an interception. But there was no risk to send something like a verbal story 'they gassed systematically jews here', it is obvious that _any_ inmate who was liberated would have been contact by the A.K. to bring up the so called main element of the camp. There was hundreds of thousands of A.K. members in Poland, and it is impossible to believes that no one of the inmates who was liberated suceededed to contact the resistance! Add to that the letters which were brought out the camp very often and picked up by the polish peasants, when inmates were assigned to labour on farms... >> 4 months for a letter wasn't and exception.

Nevertheless, you just wrote that '4 >months for a letter wasn't and [sic] exception.' Your words. I made a mistake, I wanted to say: 4 months for a letter was an exception. The example you quoted was in the early days. Now, since you asked a reference, I can give you one, Laqueur, the terrible secret, a jewish author (p 103): "Courriers from Poland to London had to make their way to London in long cumberstome ways. Some went via Sweden other through Western Europe. The reports they were carrying would take weeks and sometimes more than a month or even two. But shorter messages could be radioed daily to London,..." In other words, the normal daily according to Laqueur, who studied that aspect much more than me, was a month and even sometimes 2 months. Notice the 'even' before the '2 months'. This leads to your reference, a letter allegedly written in august 1943 and 'received' in London in april 1944. I've not locate it in Hilberg, despite you gave the page and the edition, nor 'the abandonment of the Jews', but there I found just the 1989 edition, not the 1984. For Hilberg, I figure there's some misunderstood due to the fact that I just found the 3 volumes edition. The other books (5 for 1989, D. Wyman) are quite more interesting, since the author reproduced documents everywhere, but he didn't give an index for the topics and I didn't search more than 10 or 15 minutes, the page you gave was irrelevant for this edition. I'd prefer to locate the letter before to give my opinion, but since I didn't find it, my best guess actually is that it was written in 1944, april. I was wrong when I stated '6 months', indeed, I read back your claim and it is 8 months. Too long. 4 times more than the maximum given by Laqueur. The scenario I'd have to imagine is that in spite of the presence of jews in the resistance, in spite of the close contact that were existing between the A.K. and Zionist organisations, the fact that the polish government in exile, who feared the russians and searched deseperatly allieds, was spreading massivelly propaganda claims against the germans ( for other camps ) than neither the A.K. nor the zionist organisations over those 8 months decided to raise the alarm. Unbelie- vable. Especially since the normal delivery time was a month (see Laqueur). The coincidence here is that this report (and I'll trust your word) was sub- mitted to the OSS in april 1944, and this is very close to the date of the WRB report appearance. This is a critical period for the zionist organisations who were counting heavilly on immigration from hungaria to get a jewish state in Palestine. In march 1944 the admiral Horthy suspended jewish emigra- tion from Hungary due to German preassures, probably related to arab pressures or either to the fact that those jews could serve in allied armies. Anyway, it is clear that the gas chamber propaganda, which had a break over a certan period, was resurected then but there was no longer any possibility to use Treblinka, Belzec or Sobibor since those camps were shut down months before. Auschwitz was used, and the zionist organisations tried to use it in the summer of 1944 to get the public opinion on their side. I'll not go into the details here, what I say is that to me this report was a part of a strategy that was adopted after march 1944 and used in the summer. It is impossible to believes that it could have take 8 months to bring this report in London, nor that a quicker method (radio emettor to London) were not used during this long delay to give the main lines. The zionist organisations had a lot of contacts, and were well informed. In other words, between the early summer of 1942 and the summer of 1944, there's a gap of about two years, but an impossible silence exist. One isolated reference could be find a day, but up to now, no one. And here I'm talking about the publishing date, simply because it took 'weeks, and sometimes more than a month and even two'to bring the stuff in London. And also because such an important information could be radioeded to London. codoh: http://www.codoh.com/ From jfbe@vir.com Mon Sep 9 08:20:27 PDT 1996 Article: 63769 of alt.revisionism Path: nizkor.almanac.bc.ca!news.island.net!vertex.tor.hookup.net!eloi.vir.com!rcogate.rco.qc.ca!Rezonet.net!Vir.com!usenet From: Jean-Francois Beaulieu Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Re: No criminal evidende in the Wannsee protocol Date: 8 Sep 1996 15:27:40 GMT Organization: Communications Vir, Internet Access Montreal.

The site he's refering also gives, if memory deserve, a gap, between 'less than an hour and 4 hours' I think. Nowhere I've eared about 4 hours except for very very fat persons. It is true however that among the 5 or 6 crematory operators to whom I talked I eared a figure of 1 hour and a quarter, but this was for very small corpses, probably babies or childrens. In this case, the 'less than an hour' surprised me a lot but accounting for what I eared in those interviews, the only explanation I have is that it means 'close to an hour' since it is no said 'half an hour'. If I have in the mind half an hour or 45 minutes I will say 30 minutes or 45 minutes, but if I have in the mind something like 50 to 60minutes than I can use the words 'less than an hour'. And since they give an upper time of 4 hours, I must conclude that they talk about 2 extreme cases: a children in a ultra-modern crematory and a big corpse in a less develloped crematoria. The difference of temperature between Birkenau crematories and the one he refers is about the double, I gave often the reference (the report of the Polish War Crime Commision) A patent however do not represent anything else than a supposition. One can write any optimistic estimation in a patent, if they are unable to find anywhere on earth a place where the cremation of a normal body take less than an hour 1/4, than this mean that those crematories never gaves the results that were estimated.

I've already respond to that weeks ago. And as usual you bring back this as if I hadn't. They disinfected the morgues because of the typhus epidemy. The gas detector that the german used were small colorimetric papers to test the residual traces of zyklon B in a room. There's several rooms in the Krema 2, and if I remember well the only letter that Pressac found talks about 10 'gas testers' . Those colorimetric papers couldn't be reused. So they can't account for hundreds of gassing. I've no problem to explain why there was as much as 10 'gas testers': there's several rooms in the crema 2, the underground part and the upper part also. So I accept the explanation that this building was disinfect once or twice during the war. Leuchter found small cyhanide traces on the walls of the Leichenkeller but he found also small traces of ferro-cyhanide on the walls of the washrooms of Krema 1. To that you responded that head lice can't be a carrier of typhus and that bodie's lice was the real danger, and that bodie's lice quit the corpse as soon as clothes are removed. Agreed. So your claim was that the German didn't need to disinfect a morgue (or the entire crema building) since bodie's lice had already quit the corpses long before. To that I responded that: 1) German shaved the inmates not only for industrial purposes but also because they took rough measures to fight the typhus epidemy. And to back this claim I gave Pressac as a reference. I can give it again, he based his claim on a document. This mean simply that either the German were unaware about this characteristic, either they decided to take, rough measures to avoid any danger. They were military, one supplementary measure to avoid the danger was preferable to those guys. And since Pressac back his claim with a document, this mean also that they were not more 'fancy' in their approach for the krema 2. 2) Inmates were working in the krema 2 and could bring lice there. Bodie's lice. In such a case, the crema 2 was nothing else than an ordinnary building that needed to be disinfect since lice can lives hours without a body. 3) Since the documents itself talks about an undressing room and I accept the version that the bodies were undressed there (LK-2), than bodie's lice could invade the crema 2 by another way Now what strike me today is that in spite of the fact that I never eared about any witness (sonderkommando) who talked about the use of those small gas testers before the removal of bodies, you make big noise about those ones as if they would proove your case. >Then therešs also the little issue of the Zyklon B introduction columns in >the homicidal gas chambers.

Van Alstine, he gave a reference in a Germa-Russian dictionnary where the word 'gaskeller' is used to define an air raid shelter in connection with chemical warfare. One can applied a gaz on a cellar from outside or from inside, but the synonym he gave is extremelly close, you know that. You know also that nowhere in the documents that refer to the delousing facilities the germans use the word 'gaskeller', or 'vergasungskeller', they use gaskammer (gas chamber). You didn't bring any german document which show that at any time they used gaskellar to described an american gas chamber or a delousing facility. They are using 'gas chamber', gaskammer, not the word cellar (keller). It is thus clear that this document proove that the Leichenkeller 1 was described as an air raid shelter by the man who wrote this letter. An air raid shelter which had to take in account an eventual attack with gas, the terror of the germans after the 'vergasung' to which they were submitted during World War 1. Of course, you will claim that you know German far much than me, but I've still the dictionnary that I used 8 years ago in this course. Claiming the opposite would be of a rare dishonesty for someone who know perfectly german. >> By the way could you tell me: where Nyiszli is born... >Hungary. I know.

They testified at a trial, there's records which show that they existed. >> ...if his name figure on the Auschwitz registration books... >"May 29 [1944] ... 2,000 Jews, given Nos.

Ya, but normally a tombstone identify the person. For about 30 years the revisionist doubt that he ever existed. What they ask is not 2 or 3 'eye- witness' who claimed that they saw him. In 30 years it was easy to proove that he really existed, that it was not a surname taken by someone who was never in Auschwitz, and the way to proove it is simple: to find a public appearence of him that was reported, a birth certificate, to find his wife, or were he died, a death certificate, such a thing. You mean that such an extraordinnary witness never appeared in fron of journalist with the story he had to tell? That no one can say exactly were he lived after the war, which adress? That furthermore, no one was able to locate those simple informations, were he's burried? It seems to me that such informations were are easy to find for someone who got in contact with his publisher. >Oh, yes, I see. You were beating _that_ dead horse again.

They have wait 7 years to do test, they do not allow a mixed team (revi- sionist-exterminationist) to take sample for clarifying the things for ever, and you would like me to believe them? It's easy to take sample of different materials at different places on the same wall to determine where you have the best chances to find less cyhanide traces and where you have chances to find more. And then after, when you know, to take official samples as if it would be the first time. The Cracow institute did certanly not this work without being paid by the Auschwitz Museum. As Leuchter didn't go there without being paid. If you ask for an analysis by a laboratory you have to pay them. And if Leuchter wasn't idiot enough to take samples where there was few blue-stain on the wall of the Degesh, they were not enough stupid to disatisfy the Auschwitz museum by taking it at the wrong place. The Auschwitz museum employed many people who own their life with the incomes of hundreds of thousands of visitors. They wanted to give a rebu- tal to Leuchter's analysis but they didn't know what to do. They were perfectly aware in 1989 of the Leuchter report but they waited 6 years before to ask an investigation at the same degesh were Leuchter took his samples? most irregular. It is my claim that they took CERTANLY a sample in the degesh that Leuchter visited in 1988 and that they found results which were comparable. It is impossible to believe that they slept during all this time without thinking to take a sample in the same degesh. And now I've a small comment about a plaster sample taken from the plaster inside? But how much blue? I saw the pictures of the inside and outside degesh walls, and there's irregular blue large spots, but obviously blue. The remaining inside the L-Keller 1 do not have this blue stain. So I'm still asking if really the exterminationist have nothing to hide, why do they refused a mixed team, with a camera, why would they refused a transparent inquiry with random samples? I've not even access to the video taken by the polish team. >> ...They disinfected the morgues because of the typhus epidemy. > Oh, please.

You _know_ the vergasungskeller letters which state in january 1943 that the ovens were used (the fired were started) and which state that the Vergasungskeller can be used rather than the morgue (so to stock bodies). It wasn't finished but operationnal, according to the letter, certanly. The same thing for the typhus epidemy: it never ended. There was peaks, of course, but typhus was still there in 1943, there was several epidemies, but weaker than the 1942 epidemy. Typhus continued to kill to a lower extent after 1942. >> ...And since Pressac back his claim with a document, this mean also that >> they were not more 'fancy' in their approach for the krema 2. >Exact citation, please?

How absurd. Your logic is tortuous. I'm saying that someone had to remove the clothes of people who died from natural causes, that this was done in the undressing room, they had no choice to remove there clothes and this was the normal place to do it. Thus, that lice could invade the building. So the german couldn't be sure that there was no remaining lice 5, 10 15 hours after somewhere. Nor into the inmates barracks that they were desinfecting elsewhere (I remember perfectly the example Rassinier brought for Buchenwald-Dora). >down the stairs into L.Keller 2?

There's now a strong argument which show that the guy who used this word did it to described a kind of air raid shelter in connection with chemical walfare (this russian-german military dictionnary) in this famous letter.

But since they were bringing many corpses at a time, it was logical for them to undress the bodies in the first accesible room and bring them after in the other room. Both rooms were morgues, but it was logical to fill the last morgue (LK-1) before the first one (LK-2) since they had to walk across the LK-2 before to reach the other one. And they knew in advance that. I just figure that they had such a habit, undressing the bodies always at the same place, the closest place from the exit.

[snip] I didn't ask you to recover the question with a screen of smoke. I know that vergasung may have the sense of killing with gas. You are just trying to avoid the issue by stating that this mean necessarelly 'killing people in a gas chamber'. People were killed with gas during WW I also. I'm thus perfectly able to understand why 'vergasung' exist in connection with keller to described an air raid shelter back those days. The word vanished gradually after the war, simply because chemical war was no longer a major threath, nuclear weapons were far much a concern. But there's traces of it, in this russian-german military dictionnary. What I asked you was to bring any german document, dealing with the delousing facilities, or a newspaper, or a german book which described american gas chambers, or a german report of amnisty international about death sentence, anything of that kind were a gas chamber is defined with the words 'gaskeller' or 'vergasungskeller' rather than 'gaskammer'. It is unbelievable, knowing now that gaskeller was the word used to described an air raid shelter (in connection with chemical bombardment) that a german decided suddenly to write in a letter 'vergasungskeller' to describe a 'gaskammer' while there was a common word for a gas chamber. All what you do is to build artificial connection but you bring no source where the words 'gaskeller' or 'vergasungs keller' are used to describe a gas chamber. The location of the building, underground here, hasn't any importance since it didn't prevent this guy to use 'gaskammer' if he wanted to be understood. http://www.codoh.com/ From jfbe@vir.com Sun Sep 15 09:27:09 PDT 1996 Article: 65745 of alt.revisionism Path: nizkor.almanac.bc.ca!news.island.net!news.bctel.net!news.internetMCI.com!newsfeed.internetmci.com!demos!news1.relcom.ru!EU.net!www.nntp.primenet.com!nntp.primenet.com!ddsw1!news.mcs.net!news.abs.net!news.bconnex.net!clicnet!news.clic.net!rcogate.rco.qc.ca!Rezonet.net!Vir.com!usenet From: Jean-Francois Beaulieu Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Re: 'kurtzi' stele, the Untermench (Re: Jewish Al Date: 14 Sep 1996 16:13:45 GMT Organization: Communications Vir, Internet Access Montreal.

As I said, in Pressac's book (A.T.O.) this document was sent to the Auschwitz museum by the Committee of Anti- Fascist Resistants of German Democratic Republic and I compared the signatured that appeared on this document with Jahrling's signature on two other documents (genuine those ones) in the same book and the hoaxers didn't even bother themselfs to get an original of Jahrling signature to do a professional job, it is obvious to anyone who check in the book. I've no problem to 'put my money where is my mouth', an authentification by a laboratory or whatsover, even a million dollars, on a first glance it is evident when someone compare with Jahrling signature elsewhere that it is not the same.

I'm not contesting the total number of deportees, but it was the policy of the Vichy government to accept less easily the deportation of french citizens (Jews) than the deportation of Jewish refugees who came in France in the 30's, till 1940. Polish and German Jews first, than some Jews from Netherland, but also other polish and German Jews established in Belgium or Netherland recently. The last one, like millions of other people escape in part toward the south in 1940 when Germany invaded those countries. I've some fragmentary references, a declaration from Anna Arendt in one of Rassinier's book and despite I'm not taking it as the only element, it is clear that the majority of those 75,000 Jews were not french citizens. A polish Jew or a German Jew who came in France in 1938 and was deported in 1942 hadn't any serious reason to return in France rather than to emigrate in Palestine, USA, Canada etc...Those one couldn't, when they survived to the deportation, go in France to give their name as 'survivors'. Even for the French Jews there's no reliable account: depends if someone decided to go there and give his name as a survivor, or wether if he came back from the deportation after. Some of them may have emigrate elsewhere also, but in the case of French citizens I think it is a minority, most of those survivors did probably return in France. My belief actually is that this 2,000 figure is not a jewish fabrica- tion, but I'm not sure about the circunstances of this count, I mean, I suspect that several may not have consider as relevant to take the nece- ssary steps to be 'count'. http://www.codoh.com/ From jfbe@vir.com Tue Sep 17 08:56:28 PDT 1996 Article: 66293 of alt.revisionism Path: nizkor.almanac.bc.ca!news.island.net!vertex.tor.hookup.net!hookup!news-dc.gsl.net!news.gsl.net!news-penn.gsl.net!news.gsl.net!news-lond.gsl.net!news.gsl.net!tank.news.pipex.net!pipex!arclight.uoregon.edu!nntp.primenet.com!hunter.premier.net!news1.erols.com!news.bconnex.net!clicnet!news.clic.net!rcogate.rco.qc.ca!Rezonet.net!Vir.com!usenet From: Jean-Francois Beaulieu Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Re: The footnote heard from Date: 17 Sep 1996 01:37:29 GMT Organization: Communications Vir, Internet Access Montreal.

This 'document', the Jahrling document, was allegedly 'captured' after the war while no one eared about it before 1981. At a time while revisionism had a growing influence, it was 'rediscovered' by the comittee of anti-fascist resistance of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) and sent to the Auschwitz curator. It is hard to believe that such a document 'escaped' the attention of the prosecution at Nuremberg, it is described in Pressac's book, Auschwitz, Techniques and Operation of the Gas chambers as a 2 pages microfilm document. Most of his other sources, microfilms, contain several dozens when it is not sevral hundreds pages but this document is an orphan. It was allegedly written.. when several breakdown were affecting the crematories but it is suppose to claim triumphally a fantastic output! Anyone who want to compare Jahrling's 'signature' on this document can go at pages 223 and 224 of A.T.O. where genuine documents from Jahrling about coke consumptioon can be found on other documents.

This 'document', the Jahrling document, was allegedly 'captured' after the war while no one eared about it before 1981. At a time while revisionism had a growing influence, it was 'rediscovered' by the comittee of anti-fascist resistance of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) and sent to the Auschwitz curator. It is hard to believe that such a document 'escaped' the attention of the prosecution at Nuremberg, it is described in Pressac's book, Auschwitz, Techniques and Operation of the Gas chambers as a 2 pages microfilm document. Most of his other sources, microfilms, contain several dozens when it is not sevral hundreds pages but this document is an orphan. It was allegedly written.. when several breakdown were affecting the crematories but it is suppose to claim triumphally a fantastic output! Anyone who want to compare Jahrling's 'signature' on this document can go at pages 223 and 224 of A.T.O. where genuine documents from Jahrling about coke consumptioon can be found on other documents. The two documents on page 223 and 224 bear an identical signature but the one which appear on this '1981 docu- ment' is completelly different.

Submiting them would be perhaps hard. I read D. Lipstadt years ago and she spend more time to explain why she don't want to debate rather than to give a rebuttal. I don't believe that a single T.V. debate could change everything and counter balance decades of propaganda. But things change gradually, at least here in N. America, and revisionism is growing by steps, with an occasional 'coup d'eclat', and I'm confident that people will think more before to accept any story that is offered to them. Here, we have to repeat and repeat the same things before to be drag into irrelevant details, or to be told 'you didn't bring any argument' a month after. But the debate, each one can do it with the free access to both sources today. http://www.kaiwan.com/~ihrgreg/ From jfbe@vir.com Wed Sep 18 09:13:09 PDT 1996 Article: 66541 of alt.revisionism Path: nizkor.almanac.bc.ca!news.island.net!news.bctel.net!noc.van.hookup.net!eloi.vir.com!rcogate.rco.qc.ca!Rezonet.net!Vir.com!usenet From: Jean-Francois Beaulieu Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: A crematory operato talk at Zunde's trial Date: 18 Sep 1996 04:29:45 GMT Organization: Communications Vir, Internet Access Montreal. Lines: 274 Message-ID: <51ntrp$6g7@Vir.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: ipdyne4.vir.com IVAN LAGAC [Ivan Lagac was the fourteenth witness called by the defence. He testified on Tuesday, April 5 and Wednesday, April 6, 1988.] Ivan Lagac was tendered as an expert in the practical aspects of crematorium practices. Lagac worked as a professional embalmer-funeral director, and crematory manager and operator at the Bow Valley Crematorium in Calgary, Alberta. He had completed the two and a half year Funeral Services programme at Humber College in Ontario and in 1979 obtained his diploma and Ontario license. In 1983 he obtained his Alberta license. (27-7383, 7393; qualified to give opinion evidence at 27-7394)) Lagac testified that while a crematoria business required licensing, the personnel themselves required no licence or certification. This applied to Canada, the United States and Mexico. Crematorium operators were trained by factory representatives in the operation of the equipment. Most operators were members of the Cremationists Association of North America, a self-governing association which sets voluntary standards for crematorium operation. (27-7384, 7385) In the course of his career, Lagac had dealt with over 10,000 bodies in his work and had cremated over 1,000 bodies. The work involved bodies in a variety of physical conditions, from accident and fire victims to people who died of highly contagious diseases. (27-7385, 7386) Cremation Process With the use of a flow schematic drawing, Lagac explained the three basic processes of cremation which applied to any crematorium built from 1800 onwards. In the first stage, the human remains (referred to by crematory operators as the "fuel") were placed in the main ignition chamber. The body could be in a container such as a casket or not, but it was definitely easier to burn the body without a container because there was less fuel to burn. Although it depended on the design of the unit, the body would usually be placed through the loading door feet first. (27- 7396, 7397, 7398) At that point, the heat source was employed, most modern crematories using gas-fired or oil-fired burners. The fuel (human remains) was ignited. Temperatures became extremely hot, normally reaching 2,000 degrees, and depending upon the fuel, could go as high as 2,250 degrees Fahrenheit. (27-7399) From the main ignition chamber, the gasses were sucked at a high velocity into a mixing chamber and thereafter through a series of baffles until the gasses were finally expelled outside through a tall stack. The main purpose of the mixing chamber and baffles was the elimination of any smoke or odour emissions. The baffles achieved this by forcing the escaping gasses through a series of twists and turns, creating turbulence or mixture. A secondary burner could be employed at this point to burn off any remaining gasses and smoke particles, but, Lagac explained, it was not usually necessary. Because of the high temperatures, all that was needed to be introduced was more oxygen. This induced a secondary burn within the after-burner portion of the crematory unit. (27-7399, 7400) Cremation reduced the human remains to calcium. These particles were sucked from the cremation chamber into a space called the settling chamber. Because of the larger size of the settling chamber, the vacuum pressure dropped, causing the calcium particulates to fall down. Lagac explained that the settling chamber filled rather quickly and, depending on the number of cremations, had to be checked regularly and cleaned at least once a month. Most crematoria usually maintained a log of clean-ups. As a result of these processes, nothing but clean hot air escaped up the stack. (27-7400 to 7402) Lagac testified that because of Bow Valley Crematorium's extremely high stack, 45 feet versus the normal 15 feet, a high velocity draft was created drawing very large volumes of oxygen into the cremation chamber. The more oxygen that was provided, the higher the temperatures would go. As a result, crematory temperatures were passing 2,200 degrees Fahrenheit, exceeding the tolerance level of the bricks. This caused Bow Valley's refractory to fail, requiring re-bricking of the entire machine besides the stack itself. (27-7402, 7403) Nevertheless, because of its high stack, the Bow Valley Crematorium was the hottest, and therefore, the fastest crematory in operation in North America, with the capacity to cremate one adult human body in a minimum time of an hour and a half under optimum circumstances. Children took much less time to cremate simply because of their smaller size. Bodies with a moderate amount of fat were easier to cremate than skinny people. Fat was a good fuel which ignited instantly upon exposure to the flame. A tremendous surge of heat would result, actually aiding in the cremation process. A person with no fat on their body was very "stubborn" fuel to burn because it consisted mainly of wet tissues. (27-7405, 7406, 7407) The torso was the most difficult part of the human body to cremate because of its bulk and thickness. (27-7426) After the initial surge of heat from the ignition of body fat, the temperature in the retort would drop to around 1,900 degrees and would remain at that level until the cremation was at least 80 percent complete. Thereafter, the temperature further declined to about 1,600 degrees until the end of the cremation cycle. (27-7425, 7426) Lagac next took the jury through the Operations of Cremation Equipment Manual which set out operating procedures for crematories. The manual warned the operator, for the first case of the day, to "check and see that the ash tray is installed in the ash pit" and warned that "failure to have the ash tray installed can cause/or result in fire outside the Retort!" (27-7407: Manual filed as Exhibit 105 at 27-7422) ) Lagac explained the importance of this procedure, especially in the case of obese cases, where incomplete combustion of body fats occurred. In such an event, the burning body fats dripped into the waterproof ash pan and continued to burn there. If the ash pan wasn't there, however, the fluid would leak outside of the retort and cause a fire outside the crematory. (27- 7407, 7408) After checking for the ash pan, an operator started the preheat cycle for the afterburn chamber. This chamber was heated to create or establish the draft in the stack. The preheat cycle took approximately twenty minutes to reach 800 degrees Fahrenheit. After the preheating, the fuel (human remains) was introduced into the ignition chamber on rollers, the main burner ignited and the cremation process commenced. (27-7408, 7409, 7410) Lagac pointed out that the Manual contained the warning that: "Use of any metal type roller will cause excessive wear on the floor tile and shorten the life period of the floor tile." He explained that the refractory tiles used on the floor of the ignition chamber tended to wear out very quickly because of the wear and tear of the rollers and because this was where the fuel ignited and burned. Lagac himself had worn out floor titles after only 250 cremations by using metal rollers. Once the wear started it was extremely difficult to stop. (27-7410, 7411) To repair the unit in such circumstances the operator had to cease operation of the retort, allow the machine 48 hours of cooling down time with the door fully open, and preferably with a fan flowing through the machine. The bricks or tiling then had to be removed and new ones cemented. The average life expectancy of floor refractory was 1,500 cremations. The bricks of the retort's walls and ceilings were rated for 3,000 cremations while the bricks of the afterburn chamber were rated for roughly 2,000 cremations. (27-7411) The time to cremate a human being (the cremation cycle) took an average of two hours. After the first cremation of the day was completed, the operator must let the retort cool-down for a minimum of one hour before beginning the second case. After the second cremation, a cool- down period of at least two hours was required. Even with cool-down times, Lagac testified that cremations could not be done "24 hours a day, round the clock, day after day...the refractory will not tolerate it." Factory recommendation for normal operation was a maximum of three cases per day in a normal eight hour work day. No more than 50 - 60 cases should be processed in any month so that the refractory life was prolonged. That was an average of 2 cases a day. (27-7412 to 7415; 7427, 7428) There was no way to speed up this process, Lagac testified, without effecting the refractory brick and endangering the life of the operator. If no cool-down period was allowed between cremations, the temperature would go out of control and probably exceed the 2,200 degrees Fahrenheit rated for the bricks. This would cause excessive spalling, or flaking, of the bricks. Secondly, the operator could not safely open a retort having an internal temperature of 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit. "I have to allow for cool-down time, for my safety," said Lagac, "and to bring the temperature in the retort to a point where there is safe loading of the next case." (27- 7412, 7413) Lagac testified that he had "burned my hair and my face often enough to learn that I don't attempt to open the door when the temperatures are excessive. It just can't be done, unless perhaps you are wearing a full asbestos suit. From my experience with asbestos garment, they prevent flame from contacting you, but they still get very hot." (27-7414) Lagac emphasized the real dangers involved if the cool-down periods were not followed. If an operator attempted to introduce a body into the retort when temperatures were still excessive, a "flash ignition" could occur whereby the body would ignite before it was fully introduced into the retort. In such a case, the operator would be engulfed in flames from the burning body and would be unable to close the door to the retort. To put it simply, he said, "you can basically walk away and watch your building burn down." (27-7415, 7416) Lagac introduced a sample brick into evidence which the jury was allowed to handle. The brick was extremely light and brittle making it an extremely good insulator, but also very delicate: "I could take an ordinary handsaw and cut it in half." The brick was able to withstand 2,600 degrees Fahrenheit, and was therefore a little better than the average firebrick. (27-7422, 7423, 7424; brick entered as Exh. 106 at 27-7423) In a new crematory, the new refractory brick had to be cured or dried out during a break- in cycle of one cremation per day for 25 days. If this number was exceeded, refractory failure would certainly be caused. (27-7428) During normal cremations, there was some flaking of brick, wearing it from the inside to the outside. If the brick was overheated, however, it would simply crack along its length to about one half of its depth, thereby causing premature failure. In such a case, the fire would not be contained within the retort and the metal superstructure, which supported the retort, would buckle. Eventually, testified Lagac, the retort would collapse and a fire would occur outside the cremation chamber. (27-7424, 7425) During cool-down, Lagac shut down the natural gas burner used to fire the crematory and pumped air through the chamber. Older furnaces, he said, had been coal-fired, and had been difficult to cool down simply because the operators could not shut the heat off: "Once coal is burning, unless you remove it, the heat is still being produced." Coal-fired furnaces thus prevented any quick cool-down to occur and in fact required "enormous amounts" of time to cool. (27-7426) Birkenau Crematories Lagac testified that the plans for the Birkenau crematory indicated that it had been built to almost the exact specifications of the Bow Valley Crematorium. Using an overhead of the Birkenau plan, Lagac pointed out the crematory's cremation chamber, the flame port, the smoke channel and settling chamber and the afterburner. He testified that it was obvious that the Germans were concerned with environmental effects. (27-7430) Lagac found the most amazing and unique part of the Birkenau crematory to be the stack, calculated to be 45 feet high, and therefore very similar to Bow Valley Crematorium's stack. In Lagac's opinion, the rate of burn of the Birkenau unit would be as efficient but not more than his own unit in Calgary. (27-7432) The only technology difference that Lagac could see between his own crematory and those of Birkenau was the burner section. Lagac's crematory used a natural gas burner while Birkenau used a stoking system with coal or something of a similar nature. The technology of Lagac's crematory allowed him to shut the gas off for cooling. Coal was very cumbersome in that regard and this would affect the time limit since the operator could not go through a cooling cycle as quickly. (27-7450) Lagac was shown a photograph of one of the Birkenau crematories taken during the war and asked if the units looked familiar to his own crematory. Lagac agreed that they were. He indicated, however, that the Birkenau retorts had been built in units of three with common walls between them. This would have eliminated the need for extra bricks and been much easier and quicker to construct. However, he noted, "should one of these need to be maintained or need any repairs, it would necessitate the shutdown of the other two [retorts]...attached to it, because you can't have temperatures of 2,000 degrees radiating into an area where you're working on another retort." Lagac believed that this design would never be used in a modern crematory simply because, as a business, it could not afford to have a shutdown of three units if one broke down. (27-7438, 7439) Holocaust Claims of Numbers of Cremations at Auschwitz-Birkenau: Lagac was asked to comment on the claims made by Raul Hilberg in The Destruction of the European Jews (2nd ed., page 978) with respect to the capacities of the 46 retorts in the four crematories at Birkenau. Hilberg claimed: The theoretical daily capacity of the four Birkenau crematoria was somewhat over 4,400, but, with breakdowns and slowdowns, the practical limit was almost always lower. Lagac stated that this claim was "preposterous" and "beyond the realm of reality." To claim that 46 retorts could cremate over 4,400 bodies in a day was "ludicrous." Based on his own experience, Lagac testified that it would only have been possible to cremate a maximum of 184 bodies a day at Birkenau. (27-7436, 7437, 7438) Lagac was referred to page 17 of Did Six Million Really Die? where Harwood stated: Ľ Although Reitlinger's 6,000 a day would mean a total by October 1944 of over 5 million, all such estimates pale before the wild fantasies of Olga Lengyel in her book Five Chimneys (London, 1959). Claiming to be a former inmate of Auschwitz, she asserts that the camp cremated no less than "720 per hour, or 17,280 corpses per twenty-four hour shift." She also alleges that, in addition, 8,000 people were burned every day in the "death-pits", and that therefore "In round numbers, about 24,000 corpses were handled every day" (p. 80- 1). This, of course, would mean a yearly rate of over 8-1/2 million. Thus between March 1942 and October 1944 Auschwitz would finally have disposed of over 21 million people, six million more than the entire world Jewish population. Comment is superfluous. Lagac testified that from his own experience in cremating approximately 1,000 bodies, the figures cited by Reitlinger and Lengyel were not realistic. The person citing such figures, he said, was, "irresponsible... with his facts because this doesn't even begin to enter reality at all. It's just physically unrealistic." Lagac said that even with present disaster plans, which provide for massive mobilization and the handling of large numbers of human remains, it would be "unimaginable" to cremate such numbers. (27-7447) Under the disaster plans of Lagac's association, bodies would be transported from a disaster scene to a local temporary morgue, which usually would be the nearest arena and the bodies placed on the ice. The person orchestrating the actions of the crematory managers would be the medical examiner. At his instructions, after he had completed any investigations, the bodies would be removed from the temporary facilities and normal funeralization would proceed. If all corpses were to be cremated, the bodies would have to be placed in refrigerated storage to allow time to cremate. (27-7448, 7449) Lagac referred to the 1985 issue of a statistical sheet compiled yearly by the Cremation Association of North America, showing the numbers of retorts located on the continent and the number of cremations done annually. The statistics indicated that in 1985, there were a total of 338,370 bodies cremated in 931 crematories in North America. In Canada alone, a total of 49,216 cremations were performed in 94 crematories. (27-7432, 7433, 7434) Open Air Burning: Lagac testified that he had observed the results of burning people in the open in a case involving a homicide where the murderer had attempted to burn the remains of his victim with gasoline in an open area in the woods of northern Ontario. He had been unable to do so. Human bodies did not burn completely in open spaces. In 90 percent of the cases, it would be the epidermis or the skin that would be charred; maybe perhaps the limbs would be burnt, but the torso was very difficult to cremate. It took high temperatures over a prolonged period of time in order to fully cremate a human being. (27-7441) Moreover, an open air burning would require far more fuel. In a retort there was a controlled optimum atmosphere. In open air, heat constantly escaped so that it was very difficult to concentrate all the heat into one area. (27-7446) Decomposition of Corpses and Handling of Typhus Infected Corpses: Lagac testified that there would be a problem with decomposition if bodies were left for a period of one to two days. Upon death, the body's defence systems shut down, leaving any bacteria or viruses in the body "a free rein to wreak their havoc." There was a rise in the body temperature and gasses began to be produced. Within hours to a day, bloating caused by tissue gas would cause, for example, a leg to quadruple in its size. It would be an extremely unpleasant and dangerous situation if contagious diseases were involved. Tissue gas was highly contagious and adhered to any equipment such as the floor, the tables, any instruments used on the bodies. (27-7443, 7444) Lagac described the procedures enforced by the Alberta government in the case of corpses infected with typhus. At his discretion, the medical officer of health may step in before the body is even removed from the hospital and specify and order the funeral home to follow certain procedures in dealing with the body. These included the wearing of protective clothing when handling the remains, the destruction of that clothing and the containers that the body was placed in. In a case of typhus, the medical officer would likely order a direct cremation as this was the most effective way of dealing with something that volatile. If the body was buried, it had to be encased in a hermetically sealed container which would last over a prolonged period of time and only when the soil conditions allowed this, in order to avoid contamination of the water-table or underground streams. (27-7444, 7445) Cross-Examination: In response to a question by Judge Thomas, Lagace testified that there were six retorts in Calgary, a city with a population of about 650,000; the ratio thus being roughly one retort for every 100,000 persons. Crown counsel Pearson asked Lagace that if this ratio was applied to the 46 retorts at Birkenau, the number would be 4.6 million. Lagace agreed. (27-7452 to 7454) Crown counsel suggested to Lagace that when he ran his crematory he did so in conformity with Alberta law, conscious of ecology, operating the facility with the safety of employees as a paramount consideration with a view to maximizing profit and minimizing costs, and maximizing the life of the equipment by minimizing wear and tear. Lagac agreed. He also agreed that he had no experience operating in a system that placed no legal restrictions on how many bodies could be cremated, that had as its goal, not profit, but simply disposing of as many bodies as possible. (27-7454 to 7456) Wasn't it true, asked Pearson, that many facilities such as municipal garbage disposal facilities or blast furnaces had furnaces that ran continually? Lagac replied that he was not familiar with blast furnaces or other such facilities and had not enquired into their operation. As to his knowledge of ceramics, he testified that the thermocouple, a giant thermometer used in the crematory to record temperatures, was encased in ceramic but had to be changed about every 1,000 cremations because the ceramic would burn out. (27-7456, 7457) Lagacé agreed that he was very surprised that the Birkenau crematory was a facility which rivalled the Calgary operation as far as efficiency and design were concerned. He agreed that Auschwitz was forty years ahead of its time when it came to cremating. (27-7458) On re-examination, Lagace testified that there had not been any typhus epidemics in Calgary recently. He agreed that any economic motivation he might have did not affect his capacity to complete cremations.

Perhaps such a flash is possible. Perhaps there was a mention of such kind of danger in his manual, perhaps, since he knew how the epidermic fat burn fast, it was his intuition. You never drop french fries fat accidentally ? Try a day, but you'd better to find a good explanation in advance, tell the cuds you had to verify something with a bacon slice experience. Perhaps it wouldn't be as worst he described, I don't believe he tried that just to check if his fear was right. >The folks at the cremation web site must have never heard this; they >write that after the furnace is already hot, the cremation time >is reduced by a factor of two. This obviously means that they >insert the corpses into a very hot furnace. Here, I was told by several crematory operators that the first cremation of the day take 1/2 hour more than the subsequent ones. It is because they need to heat the after burner, it's a legal obligation. Without that, the smoke generated by the combustion of the corpse is not totally destroyed. I was told in a place (le cimetiere du bas du fleuve) that it is a necessity to cool down the oven. Evidently, I'm not rejecting the fact that some different structures could allow an operator to not get close to the flammes, let say if you have just to press a button and that the coffin is drive automatically to the furnace 4 meters away, and if some kind of machine can remove the previous skeleton before. But this wasn't the case at Magnus Poirier crematorium, nor at the other place I mentionned, nor at Birkenau, evidently. They had to remove the skeleton manually or the bones that were left manually. Thus a cooling down period was necessary. This doesn't mean that the oven had to be cool down to the room temperature neither. So your 'reduction by a factor 2' is based apparently mainly on the after burner pre-heating. Here, this is 1/2 hour and the cremation time at Magnus Poirier, le crematoire d'Arche, le cimetiere du bas du fleuve, le crematorium Mont-Royal, is between 2 hour to 2 hour 1/2 for a normal body plus 1/2 hour for the first cremation of the day. You have claim 'less than one hour', but the only time I visited this site they gave a range, the upper range was something like 4 hours I think, I'll check later. Some crematories may be more powerfull than others, when we talk about ovens that can reach twice or 2 1/2 time more the 800 or 900 degrees of the Birkenau ovens... But since I was told here that very small bodies take 1 hour 1/4 and very fat bodies more than 3 hours, I think they took in account the size of the body when they gave this range. And since in the story most of the jews 'gassed' had been gassed upon arrival, they were not emaciated, contrarely to the inmates who died from typhus or other diseases. ># Human bodies did not burn completely in open spaces.

Corpses are burned in India in this manner, BTW. Ya, but they drop important human remains in the Gange, something that create sanitary problems. The estimation about the real proportion of the body that is burned in the open can vary, in Dresden they were evidently doing that to reduce as much possible the flesh to avoid epidemies. Important human remains, carbonized flesh and bones are left. http://www.codoh.com/ From jfbe@vir.com Sun Sep 22 00:08:59 PDT 1996 Article: 67479 of alt.revisionism Path: nizkor.almanac.bc.ca!news.island.net!news.bctel.net!noc.van.hookup.net!nic.win.hookup.net!hookup!usenet.eel.ufl.edu!arclight.uoregon.edu!news.ibm.net.il!news.stealth.net!imci4!pull-feed.internetmci.com!newsfeed.internetmci.com!news.ac.net!news.bconnex.net!clicnet!news.clic.net!rcogate.rco.qc.ca!Rezonet.net!Vir.com!usenet From: Jean-Francois Beaulieu Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Re: The footnote heard from Date: 21 Sep 1996 14:56:58 GMT Organization: Communications Vir, Internet Access Montreal.

The numbers are known from several sources. For French Jews, it gives (it's only for Drancy, but the most part was deported from Drancy): French. 14669, naturalized French 7724, protected Frenchies (from Tunisia and Maroc) 156, Frenchies subjects (French before the law of Cremieux in october 40), 347. Then we are certainly over 20000 French Jews deported. >The fact remains that a total of less of 2000 came back in France, >then less of 10% of the French part alone and 4% of the total: even if >the economical situation wasn't good in France, it was certainly >better than in other parts of Europe. I didn't say that the non french citizens emigrated in Poland or Germany, I said that it was more logical for them to emigrate in any american country or either in Palestine for ideological reasons. For the french, I've no pro- blem with that, the bulk of the survivors certanly returned in France. But I don't see why this 2,000 figure is supposed to be so accurate. I think I saw in a book a while ago something which refered to a place where those survivors had to go to be registered. If it's the case, it is dubtious that every one of those who came back from the deportation decided to make this effort. There's also a problem with the date of such a count, if it was done while some deported jews were still out of the country. What you present is a 2,000 figure, but you don't give the circunstances surrounding it. I would like to see it. I'm sure that 2,000 Jews gave their name in this case, but to take just an example, if a questionnary is distributed by mail to know your opinion on that and that, one can hardly expect to receive more than 10% of the envelops. There's some elements which shows how these results are not reliable unless were are given all the circunstances surrounding those numbers. Henri Krazucki was deported from Drancy and untill 1977 according to the Auschwitz museum (in collaboration with le Centre de Documentation Juive de Paris) he was gased with all the convoy of the 26 june 1943. Simone Jacob (Veil) was counted as dead till 1977 (and all the woman of the same shipment 16/04/44). In 1978, Klarsfeld published a nominative list of the deported jews and it was impossi- ble with those two notorious jews to maintain the story about those specific convoys. In other words, I can't trust a ponctual statistic like this 2,000 unless this figure is back by a suffisant evidence, if all the variables are given. There was a day we were told that about 150,000 french jews were de- ported to Auschwitz and now the real figure is 75,000. I'm sure that the number of french citizens who survived deportation is certanly not more than half of them, it can be under, I don't know. Does your book say more about the circunstances of this count? >The others are dead. Murdered for an huge majority. Sufficient >witnesses are known describing the arrival of trains from Drancy and >what happened. What most of them saw was selections and the lost of contact with relatives. In some cases, families were partly reunificated after the war, in other cases no. The fact that after the huge publicity generated in 1945 several of them decided that year, or 20 years later to back the gas chamber story is another thing. There was an open door for anyone who wanted to lie about it without any risk of being criticized. http://www.codoh.com/ From jfbe@vir.com Sun Sep 22 00:09:00 PDT 1996 Article: 67536 of alt.revisionism Path: nizkor.almanac.bc.ca!news.island.net!news.bctel.net!newsfeed.direct.ca!op.net!inter2.interstice.com!nanospace.com!pornstorm.eit.com!news.sprintlink.net!news-chi-13.sprintlink.net!www.nntp.primenet.com!nntp.primenet.com!news.sgi.com!news.msfc.nasa.gov!newsfeed.internetmci.com!news.ac.net!news.bconnex.net!clicnet!news.clic.net!rcogate.rco.qc.ca!Rezonet.net!Vir.com!usenet From: Jean-Francois Beaulieu Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Where was the jewish modesty?

Lines: 33 Message-ID: <521ggu$l9n@Vir.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: ipdyne8.vir.com One of the most incredible claim of the gassing story is that men and women had to remove their clothes in the same room before to go in the gas chamber. Back those days, modesty was largely present, more than today, and the Nazis were definitivelly prudish. We have just to remember how they considered por- nography. Many Jews also. Especially the religious. In spite of the fact that some tales described few convoys were the Jews were 'aware' about their fate and protested a bit, more often they were supposed to be ignorant about it. I've just search in a couple of books and there seems to be no reference to that. It is hardly believable that the SS couldn't figure that a unique undressing room for both sex was a so good idea. First, it was going against their bigo- try. Second, they could expect too much protestations from Jews. But the odd here is that we should expect in the SK tales a frequent reference to Jewsness who refused to undress in front of men, or the contrary. Disorder, protesta- tions, since they were normally unaware about their fate. Of course the SS had gunmachines, but what we are told is that they tried as much as possible to fool the Jews. For _each_ gassing we should expect several men and women who shout 'In front of the men?', loud protestations and a group of SS who would be obligated to threat the Jews with their guns. And even in that case, sup- plications, during minutes we would expect men or women asking to bring a cur- tain, an protestations again, and SS repeating 'do it or die!'. After two or three of those scenes, since the purpose was allegedly to drive the Jews quie- ly without incidents toward the gas chamber, the SS would perfectly realized that the best method was to take in account the mentalities and to separate them in two groups from the begining to the end. However, we have not such tales. The stories are based upond mixed groups who removed their clothes without protesting systematically. http://www.kaiwan.com/~ihrgreg/ From jfbe@vir.com Sun Sep 22 07:51:57 PDT 1996 Article: 67626 of alt.revisionism Path: nizkor.almanac.bc.ca!news.island.net!news.bctel.net!noc.van.hookup.net!nic.win.hookup.net!vertex.tor.hookup.net!nic.mtl.hookup.net!rcogate.rco.qc.ca!Rezonet.net!Vir.com!usenet From: Jean-Francois Beaulieu Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Re: Van Alstine talking to himself Date: 21 Sep 1996 15:18:14 GMT Organization: Communications Vir, Internet Access Montreal.

Israel attacked first Syria and Egyptia and this is why Jordania was drag in this conflict. The same way France declared war to Hitler after his invasion of Poland. The united nations recognized it back those days, Israel hadn't any right to occupy those territories, and the subsequent annexions of the Golan and growing parts of the West Bank showed largelly how the arabs were right in their fears.

He's a jewish writter, simply. Filip Muller is a key eyewitness who claimed that he was there as a Sonderkommando. I've reread most of his book yesterday and it is clear everywhere that men and women had to undress in the same room. He described the scenes were men and women walk together to the 'gas chamber', dialogs comming from men and women in the same room. There was, also, just one undressing room in krema 2 and 3 in the holocaust version. The only way to separate both sex was to gassed them in different crematories. But it is clear in Muller's book that it is not the way things allegedly happened. Unless a small paragraph escaped my attention, but I don't think so. Hilberg's claim is worthless. Filip Muller (3 years in a gas chamber) is supposed to be more accurate, no? I've not yet check your reference but I noticed he used the word 'barracks', something that doesn't sound like the the crematory rooms, I'll see if this reference refer to something else than gassing. http://www.kaiwan.com/~ihrgreg/ From jfbe@vir.com Sun Sep 22 23:08:32 PDT 1996 Article: 67830 of alt.revisionism Path: nizkor.almanac.bc.ca!news.island.net!vertex.tor.hookup.net!nic.win.hookup.net!noc.van.hookup.net!nic.mtl.hookup.net!rcogate.rco.qc.ca!Rezonet.net!Vir.com!usenet From: Jean-Francois Beaulieu Newsgroups: alt.revisionism,soc.culture.palestine,soc.culture.lebanon Subject: Re: 1967 Arab-Israeli War (Was; Re; The USS Li Date: 23 Sep 1996 03:01:19 GMT Organization: Communications Vir, Internet Access Montreal.

The arabs had the experience of the first israelo-arab war and had serious reasons to not trust Israel. They had face a first invasion and the lost of important pieces of land. It seems easy when you invade a country and expell hundreds of thousands of people from their land to claim after the accomplished fact: any rhetoric directed toward us is 'hate speech', lets talk about peace now. The fact is simply that the Israelis had in the mind for a while that the west bank was their biblic land. Even if Jordania hadn't attack Israel in response to the Israeli's agression against Egyptia and Syria, Israel would have invade this land a day.

Let's just take the last bombardment on an expensive power station in Beyrouth few months ago in the christian area. A 'retaliation' to the Hizbullah bombardments?

Pro-Israelis books? But I didn't state that Israel _attacked_ Jordan in 1967. I said that they couldn't drop their partners in front of the Israeli's agression against Egypt, because they knew that a day they could need them also. > From jfbe@vir.com Wed Sep 25 22:37:52 PDT 1996 Article: 68877 of alt.revisionism Path: nizkor.almanac.bc.ca!news.island.net!news.bctel.net!newsfeed.direct.ca!nntp.teleport.com!psgrain!news.sprintlink.net!news-stk-11.sprintlink.net!www.nntp.primenet.com!nntp.primenet.com!enews.sgi.com!news.sgi.com!swrinde!hookup!loki.tor.hookup.net!nic.ott.hookup.net!vertex.tor.hookup.net!nic.mtl.hookup.net!rcogate.rco.qc.ca!Rezonet.net!Vir.com!usenet From: Jean-Francois Beaulieu Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Re: Why is there no revisionist version of Nizkor?

I have a theory in your case: you made a fool of yourself or either you are lying. There's several revisionist sites, none which is as big as Nizkor but the 3 main ones are: http://www.codoh.com/ http://www.webcom.com/~ezundel/english/ http://www.kaiwan.com/~ihrgreg/ plus the adelaide institute, A. Butz site, for which a cross link exist on the above site, plus at least 5 others (I don't remember their adresses). Several of those adresses were given often here, so think a bit before to spread nonsenses here next time.

According to Peled that I quoted previously, there was no serious danger. In other words, they concluded back those day that Nasser was a loud mouth. Simply because the quantity of men he sent in the Sinai was far from the real capacity of Egyptia. > "..Syrian, Egyptian and Arab propaganda blared over the radio their > message of war, vengeance and victory and were listened to by millions > of Arabs in the middle east.

YES, but this is the popular feeling. The fact is that Rabin himself and the hight staff in Israel and the US intelligence concluded with Nasser real acts that he wasn't planning an attack against Israel. You can state that you will destroy a nation of 1 million people and its 50,000 soldiers, if you send only 20,000 of your 100,000 men on the front, than one might conclude that you just want to get the an extra popularity in the public opinion.

Ya, last time I've check abou Zyklon B the deliveries were almost the same for 1942,1943 and 1944, the typhus epidemy was stronger in 1942 but the population of the camp increased also a lot till 1944. They made a great deal with a letter where a SS stated that 'it could be used massivelly in a single shot' or something like that in the spring of 1944, but this can be for an eventual massive desinfection of the camp in case of the resurgeance of the typhus epidemy. Hilberg put some emphasis on those words, as a religious mystic who would see a manifestation of God because a shadow appear to have an irregular shape in the sky, but the hungarian jew episod to which he's refering is suppose to have take place in 2 months or so, not in a single shot. But indeed, the records for the whole 1944 year are not supposed to be there, just some fragments. And those ones are not spectacular when you compare it to other years. The most weird aspect however concern the coke shipment: here the records for the year 1944 are not there, we have a detailed description in A.T.O. for 1943 months after months but after, a weird hole. What should we expect in the summer of 1944 normally? But those one are not there.
