Don't bother.  All you'll find is more bluster.  Bellinger has yet to answer my
challenge that he refer to even one a.r. post that cites evidence to support his
claims.  And it would be a waste of much time to read pages and pages of Bellinger
"voluminously" repeating his famous "I say so!", followed by, "refer to Deja News"
over and over again.

And he accuses us of being conspiracy minded...  Does it ever occur to Sabatini
that things aren't always black or white?  How hard is it for him to believe
that "Nizkor" is a group of volunteers who share a common revulsion towards
those who would whitewash murderers?  Just when has it proven to be anything

Ah, now I get it!  Moran has accidentally proven that the Holocaust happened using a
formula just as illogical as the one he was using to prove that it didn't.

I suppose it could be expressed mathematically by saying that stupidity, if taken past
a certain extreme, actually cancels itself out.  An amazing discovery.

Oh, so I guess its okay to lock up innocent people under starvation conditions.
After all, the British did it.  Good logic, Bellinger.

You have never once provided a single piece of cited evidence to support your
claims.  Saying "I've addressed this issue" only means you've said "Ehlert was a
liar" before.

Its been almost three weeks since I first asked you to refer to even one post in
which you have provided cited evidence in support of your claims.  Still waiting,
Bellinger.  For such a prolific poster as you, it should only be a matter of 30
seconds to dig up and respost such an article.  Why don't you just do it and shut
me up?  Maybe because you can't.

Hello all, and welcome to week 3 of Bellinger's categorical refusal to
prove that he's ever said anything besides "because I say so" on
alt.revisionism.  Every time anyone asks Bellinger to provide evidence
for one of his claims, his stock reply is, "I already did, check Deja
News".  But, lo and behold, a examination of Bellinger's posts as
recorded on Deja News reveals nothing more than the constant repetition
of "check Deja News".  Is he just blowing smoke to avoid having to prove
his points.  Perhaps.  But it would be unfair to judge without giving
him a chance to defend himself.  Perhaps there is really is one post,
way back in the annals of the a.r. archive, in which Bellinger actually
provided cited evidence to prove one of his claims.  If so, he is hereby
offered the opportunity to present it to us.  We're waiting...

It is noted that you consider your credibility to be a frivolous
question, but if I were you I would make time. Because I have decided
that I am going to post this message every week until you answer what
should be a very easy challenge for an honest debater to answer:

"For as long as I have been on this NG, you have never once provided one

citation or explanation for any one of your claims.  If I am wrong,
please refer me specifically to a post that contradicts this assertion,
so that I might apologize."

It has been just over three (3) weeks since this challenge was first
posted.
Bellinger refuses to respond.  This message will be resposted every
Friday until such time as Bellinger: 1) Re-posts or refers to a message
in which he has provided cited evidence and an explanation for one of
his
claims; or, 2) admits that he never does.

Until Bellinger answers this question, his failure to do so will be
noted
as meaning that he cannot.  Any attempts by Bellinger to evade this
challenge will be appended to future postings.

The challenge in its entirety:

Perhaps one day you'll actually post evidence in support of your truth.

I'm not holding my breath either.  You've already practically admitted that you
never do.  I've been waiting almost four weeks now for you to refer to even one
message in the history of your posting to alt.revisionism in which you have
provided cited evidence to back up one of your claims/

Where's your "truth" now, Bellinger.  Somewhere hidden in the spaces between
the words, "Because I Say So!"?

Good.  Then why not post some of it.  Come on, be the first. You don't
expect us to simply take your word for it, do you?  If the evidence is
indeed, "considerable", it shouldn't be hard to find, now, should it?

Alright.  I'm waiting.	Publisher, too, if you will... Unless you expect
us to simply accept the validity of this uncited evidence as well.

Fine.  The prove me wrong.  Re-post or refer specifically to one post in
which you have used cited evidence to back up one of your claims.  That
would meet the criterea of my challange just as well as admitting that
you do not.  If its so easy, then why have you avoided this question for
four weeks, and evaded it for one?

I'm just trying to teach you that calling something a lie or calling
someone a liar does not automatically make it so.  Prove me wrong.  We're
waiting.

Defending your credibility is not my responsibility, Mr. Bellinger (thank
God!).

your accusations and claims with cited evidence.  If this is an incorrect
conclusion, please prove me wrong.

Care to be more specific?  According to Martin Gilbert, 77 Danish Jews were
killed directly as a result of the Nazis.  This was largely due to the mass
non-cooperation of the Danish population, and one of the most heroic and unique
episodes of mass rescue in the history of the Holocaust.

Why should we believe that these numbers were collected to smear the Germans?

It was the Soviets who made this claim.  Their evidence was rejected by the
international Tribunal at Nuremberg.  Get your facts right.

> YOU HAVE THE BURDEN OF PROOF - you are accusing. Get started.

A few quotes:

"hundreds of guards were executed without trial"

"USA can be worse than nazis"

"numbers collected to smear the Germans"

"USA&UK lied"

Sounds like you're the one making accusations.  But I suppose the burden of
proof does not apply to "revisionists".

Nice try, Bellinger.  I did not ask you to provide a bibliography.  I
asked to to refer to an actual post in which you have cited evidence is
support of your position.  Was that not clear in the question?	If so, I
would be pleased to re-word it.  Anyway, I'm still waiting...

Because I've seen Holocaust deniers make this claim repeatedly since I've
been on alt.revisionism, yet getting them to actually post or reference
this evidence is like nailing jello to the wall.  I simply concluded that
if such conclusive evidence existed to prove a point they so often harp
on, it would have been shown to us by now.

Let's see - you're saying that its my responsibility to prove a negative,
simply	because I asserted that no one has ever proven the positive
before.  Careful, Mr. Phillips - are you sure you want to set that
precedent?

I shall re-word the statement as you would prefer: You claim that there
is evidence that Hess was tortured.  Please refrain from making
unsupported accusations without referencing cited evidence.

Hmmm... lets think about that one for a while

Answer 1: because there was a systematic and universial policy of torture
that was so well devised that 1) no evidence that it happened was ever
uncovered; 2) it compelled every one of them to admit, in detail, to
crimes they did not commit which neatly corroborated the available
documents and testimony of other witnesses; and 3) those who received
anything less than the death penalty never recanted or altered their
statements for the remainder of their lives.

Answer 2: that the evidence presented proving their crimes was so
conclusive, denying it was pointless, and the best they could hope for
was to minimize their personal responsibility.

Which is the most plausible answer?  You tell me.

Then don't make a statement you're not willing to back up.

Truth is not in the eye of the beholder, Mr. Philips.  Back up your
accusations and refrain from using the word "truth" as a slogan.

Of course, that's not at all true, and nowhere will you find any
historian making such an assertion.  But Mr. Phillips needs a straw-man,
and I guess this will do.

Of course.  The more corroborating witnesses, the bigger and more

Frankly, yes, I can deny it.  Please explain your reasoning further. 
After all, if this is, indeed, the crux of your accusation, I believe the
burden of proof is now on you.	Besides, I have a feeling your true
motives for denying the Holocaust will come blindingly to light if you do
elaborate on this point.

Three paragraphs on my improper use of a sarcastic idiom.  If I simply

substance...?

 ... I guess not.  DO be more specific.	Seeing as this is entirely
untrue, I imagine that might be difficult.

There were a few other pseudo-scientific examinations as a follow up to
Leuchter, but repeating a lie does not make it true.  I would appreciate
your outlining the "impeccable credentials" of these additional
researchers.

I have been to the Auschwitz museum on two occasions.  And I can tell you
that there has been no reevaluation of the history of the significant
buildings therein.  The gas chamber at Auschwitz I - which is the present
day tourist site to which you refer - was built before the war and used
for the first experimental mass gassings in the summer of 1941 (the
victims were primarily Russian prisoners of war), until the extermination
center at Auschwitz II (Birkenau) was constructed the following September
and the original gas chamber at Auschwitz I was modified for other uses. 
After the war, these modifications were dismantled, and it was restored
approxiamtely to the state it was in when it was in use as a gas chamber.

If any of my information is wrong, you will have to tell me just when and
where it was "recently exposed" that the gas chamber building was built
"AFTER THE WAR", otherwise I will have to conclude that your vagueness in
the matter is intentional due to the fact that you are simply making this
up.

Actually, yes.	And before making such sweeping claims that there are
not, I suggest you read Jean Claude Pressac's "Auschwitz: Technique and
operation of the gas chambers" (the Beate Klarsfeld Foundation, NY, 1989)
where such documents are referenced extensively.

Some modest examples:

Report from Bischoff, head of construction management at Auschwitz, to
the SS economic and administrative head office in Berlin, regarding
construction at Auschwitz, 13 October 1942
[Auschwitz: Technique and operation of the gas chambers - J.C Pressac,
the Beate Klarsfeld Foundation, NY, 1989, p. 198]
--------------------------------------------------------------------
As regards the construction of the new crematorium building, it was
necessary to start immediately in July 1942 because of the situation
caused by the special actions.


Report from SS-Sturmbannfuehrer Bischoff, of the Auschwitz construction
department, to SS General Kammler, January 29, 1943
[The Final Solution: The Attempt to Exterminate the Jews of Europe,
1939-1945 - G. Reitlinger, South Brunswick, T. Yosellof, 1968, p. 158-159]
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Crematorium No. 2. The completed furnaces have been started up in
the presence of Engineer Prufer from Messers. Topf (of Erfurt). The
planks cannot yet be moved from the ceiling of the mortuary cellar
on account of frost, but this is not important, as the gassing
cellar can be used for that purpose. The ventilation plant has
been held up by restrictions on rail transport, but the installation
should be ready by February 20th.


Report from SS-Sturmbannfuehrer Bischoff, March 6 1943
[Auschwitz: Technique and operation of the gas chambers - J.C Pressac,
the Beate Klarsfeld Foundation, NY, 1989, p. 434]
-----------------------------------------------------------------
 ... order of 6/3/1943 concerning the delivery of a gas tight door
100 x 192 cm for cellar I of Krematorium III, to be produced to
the identical pattern and dimensions as the cellar door of
Krematorium II which is situated opposite, with peephole of
double 8 mm glass, with rubber sealing strip and frame.

First of all, it is proof that I post cited evidence to back up my
statements. That was the challenge you put to me and I answered it.  It
has been four weeks now since I put that same challenge to you.  Where
have you answered in as much detail?

No, in the original thread we were discussing the credibility of the
witnesses whose stories detail Mengele's crimes.  You rejected their
eyewitness reports on the grounds that they were "prima facie absurd" and
other such unsupported dismissals.  Here, I present documented evidence
that events very similar to those they discribe did take place in the
very place where the witnesses say they took place, with the approval of
the superiors of those they accuse of committing these crimes.	This adds
credibility to the witnesses' statements, by proving the plausibility of
their stories in the context in which they took place.	PLEASE tell me
you don't understand this concept.

In terms of documentation, I can only produce the order.  How do you
expect to prove implementation if you summarily reject all eyewitness
testimony.  It was done because people saw it done - because both Nazi
doctors and survivor victims testify that it was done, and they are
supported by the documentary evidence cited above.  I know that you'd
like to reserve judgement until a victim of one of these experiments
shows up at your front door for a full cross-examination and physical,
but, at this point, I simply have to fall back on: get real, Bellinger. 
It happened, deal with it.

Then why didn't you cite the full quote?  Am I supposed to take your word
that this "nothing unusual" came directly from the trial?  I cited two
excerpts of testimony from the Nuremberg trials detailing that "nothing
unusual", according to two different I.G. Farben officials, consisted of
gassings, cremations, and beatings.  Where does your two-word quote come
from?  Your butt?

I replied, citing the following testimony by I.G. Farben directors at
Nuremberg, as quoted by Joseph Borkin in "The Crime and Punishment of
I.G. Farben" (Barnes and Noble Books, 1997 edition, pgs. 135-156), a
book which I recommend to anyone interested in reading detailed
testimony from employees, directors, and prisoners of I.G. Farben
regarding "nothing unusual":

This, therefore, is a much more blatant lie, and Faf.13, being a coward,
refused to address this evidence, rather preferring to pretend I had not
presented it.

I just did, Joe.  You asked me to refer to posts where I have cited

You refuted nothing.  If you disagree with the content of the posts I

that I answered your counter-challange immediately in as much detail as I
have requested you answer my original challange.  If I can do it, why
can't you?

Sigh... he hasn't yet proven that one piece of evidence I or anyone else
has cited is either a "lie" or "fabrication".  But he believes it with
his own religious conviction, so I won't try to argue with him.

He's amazing isn't he.	First he says I'm the prosecutor, then he follows

Calling some a "LIAR" in capital letters does not make it any more true
than doing it in lower case.  Prove it, or refer to a previous post in

Amazing, again, Bellinger.  This very post contains excerpts of documents

Ah, yes.  The world-wide conspiracy again.  A fantastic theory.  Care to

Or do we just have to accept your word that everyone trained to

Welcome one and all, my friends
to the show that never ends
its the BELLINGER EVASION GAME

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it has now been four weeks since I first
challanged Bellinger to refer to one post in his sorry history with
alt.revisionism in which he provided cited evidence to back up one of
his claims.  And I have to say that this past week has been, by far, the
most fun, since this was the week that Bellinger chose to actually
attempt an answer.  A summary and listing of his evasive posts will be
provided at the end of this messgage, but, first, the challange itself:

It is noted that you consider your credibility to be a frivolous
question, but if I were you I would make time. Because I have decided
that I am going to post this message every week until you answer what
should be a very easy challenge for an honest debater to answer:

"For as long as I have been on this NG, you have never once provided one

citation or explanation for any one of your claims.  If I am wrong,
please refer me specifically to a post that contradicts this assertion,
so that I might apologize."

It has been just over four (4) weeks since this challenge was first
posted.
Bellinger refuses to respond.  This message will be resposted every
Friday until such time as Bellinger: 1) Re-posts or refers to a message
in which he has provided cited evidence and an explanation for one of
his
claims; or, 2) admits that he never does.

Until Bellinger answers this question, his failure to do so will be
noted
as meaning that he cannot.  Any attempts by Bellinger to evade this
challenge will be appended to future postings.

The challenge in its entirety:

Well, ladies and gentlemen, it has been an exciting week 4.  This was
the week in which Bellinger decided that he was disappointing his
imaginary legion of lurker-fans with his failure to refer to even one
post in which he has cited documented evidence is support of his
claims.  He answered last weeks challange in the following post:

Message-Id:   <5upt3k$4h0$1@juliana.sprynet.com>

Beginning with his usual show of righteous indignation:

"Your post is sio ludicrous that I am almost baffled for a reply."

Then instead of answering the question and referring to a post in which
he has cited evidence in support of one of his claims, he provided for
us a bibliography, without any explanation as to how these works, which
make use of the eyewitness testimony he so causally rejects, have been
used by him in the past to support his accusations that these
eyewitnesses are liars.

He listed five perfectly respectible sources, and added "Etc, etc., etc,
ad infinitum."

Apparently, "ad infinitum" meant one more source, specified in:

"PS:  Almost forgot to include this one:

"The Good Old Days, by Klee.  You know it.  If you don't, go
ask Prima Donna Keren, as he distorts from it regularly."

Aside from the fact that he doesn't feel he has to justify this smear
against Mr. Keren, he also doesn't explain how he managed to use a book
that provides first-hand documentation detailing the Nazi genocide
against the Jews to prove that witnesses to said genocide are all liars.

The following day, after he had posted this claim that he cited evidence
so regularly he was "almost baffled for a reply", Bellinger proceded to
explain that he is under no obligation to provide evidence for his
claims:

"It is YOU who must provide EVIDENCE as you have assumed the role of
prosecutor."

"I need only shed doubt on your accusations,"

"I do not need PROOF"

He followed with his usual unsupported accusations:

"the accusation of Mengele having eye-balls tacked to his walls was
fabricated, maliciously contrived DRIVEL"

And cliches:

"Physician, heal thyself."

And his typical "argument" as to why all eye-witness evidence must be
rejected as a source for historical research:

"Prove to me that Jews really did NOT poison the wells of Europe.
Provide
the evidence, please.  Start with Genoa."

He also turned the challange around on me:

"When have YOU ever provided evidence, save of your own bias?"

I answered immediately in:

No explanation as to how the posts specified did not include cited

back up his accusations with evidence in another thread, entitled:

He made another attempt at pretending to answer my challange, referring
to a post in which he had cited evidence in such vague terms as to make
it virtually impossible to find:

"I referred to "The Good Old Days" in reply to Keren's post:

"An SS Court says the Jews have to be exterminated, or some drivel to
that
effect.

"I don't remember the complete title.  Ask Keren or check in Deja News.
It
is only a couple of weeks old.  Then get back to me."

I was not familiar with that particular thread.  Fortunately, Gord McFee

Bellinger made another vague reference to having posted cited evidence
before.

"I posted a whole article on Ehlert's testimony direct from
the pages of the Belsen Trial transcripts.  Now go look it up."

Sacrificing my self-respect, I've decided to actually waste the time to
do so.  I presume that the post to whch he was referring was:

Subject:      The Real Herta Ehlert
From:         rblackmore@juno.com
Date:         1996/12/21
Message-Id:   <59hlkd$9h0@juliana.sprynet.com>

While this post does indeed contain cited evidence, the precise point he
was attempting to prove with it escapes me.  All I saw was testimony
that conditions at Belsen were horrific towards the end of the war.  I
did not see any proof, outside of Bellinger's own unsupported fantasies
involving threats and torture, as to why the testimony of Ehlert is not
to be trusted, or a reason why any referece to it deserves the knee-jerk
response:

>  > REPLY:  Ehlert was a liar and I have already addressed this issue.


In summary, over the past week, Bellinger has dodged the challange with
smoke screens, turned the challange back on me, and provided excuses as
to why he was under no obligation to answer it.  What he has not done is
referred to even one post in his history with alt.revisionism in which
he has cited evidence in support of one of his accusations.  We shall,
as always, be waiting.

Your point, Joe?  All I was saying above was that this evidence did not
support your contention that Olga Lenygel lied.  Thank you for confirming
that.

I assume that by "in detail" you mean that some day soon you will repeat
"she's a liar" over and over again, in the hopes that someone out there
will believe you, right?  Or have you decided to start posting supporting
evidence along with accusations like that, because for the past four
weeks, you have dodged my every request that you repost an example of
your having done so in the past.

Hello?	When did we step into a courtroom?  Legal evidence must, of
necessity, meet technical standards that often have nothing to do with an
honest search for truth as much as the civil rights of the accused.  For
this reason, the standards of evidence in an honest search for historical
truth are different.

But even if we were in a courtroom, I know of no system of jurisprudence
that holds the the standards specified by Mr. Phillips.  But I tell you
what, Bellinger: I'll continue this argument on the condition that you
prove to me, using Mr. Phillips' standards of evidence, that YOU exist. 
Evidence I would accept will include:

1)  A signed statement from both of your parents announcing their
intention to conceive, whose language makes unmistakably clear that their
intention is to conceive YOU and not anyone else.  Please don't refer to
euphemisms used by your parents to refer to such actions, and it will be
useless to claim such a serious endeavor was put into execution by a mere
"nudge and wink".

2)  A certificate of birth that has undergone forensic study for its
authenticity, and is certified as authentic by two independant witnesses.

3)  A scientific report by experts with good credentials attesting to
your existence.  I would have to be assured that these men made their
report free of any financial or institutional pressures.

4)  Testimony of witnesses that stood up to hostile cross-examination.

Since I can't prove a negative, the burden is on you to prove that you
exist. If you can't even prove this most elementary assertion, I will
have to conclude that you're nothing more than a bot programmed to say
"physician, heal thyself" any time someone makes a point on this
newsgroup, and thereafter cease arguing with you.

No.  Accepting ONLY evidence that meets your own personal and
unprecedented standards of legality is "obvious bias in favor of the
Nazis".

If you hadn't cropped the last half of the sentence it might have
appeared to make more sense.

What I said was that "wholesale dismissal of all forms evidence that you
find the least bit problematic" is justified by him on the ground of
"reasonable doubt", as a means to explaining why the conduct of an honest
search for historical truth must, of necessity, be very different from
the conduct of a trial.

Our goal here is not to determine guilt or innocence.  That has been
done, whether you like it or not.  Our goal here is to find out what
really happened, in as much detail as possible, using all of the evidence
at our disposal.

Funny.	A few lines down you accuse us of libel.  Where's your evidence
for that accusation?

No, but a certain respect for those who have studied the topic in more

noted.

Bellingerisms notwithstanding, its quite clear in the way that he words
his criterea that he has specific forms of evidence in mind that he seeks
to exclude.  For example, when he asks for:

> (6) Testimony of survivors that stood up to hostile cross-examination.

He is obviously fully aware that there exists testimony from literally
thousands of witnesses.  Therefore, he specifies that he will only accept
the reports of witnesses who have been cross-examined.	However, he
further realizes that there are numerous witnesses who have submitted
their testimony and been cross-examined in recognized legal proceedings,
and therefore he needs the further qualification of the word "hostile",
so that he has a way out.  Any witness testimony given that has undergone
cross-examination can be dismissed by him on the grounds that the
cross-examiner was not sufficently "hostile". Therefore, though this
sentence, he is able to discard out of hand volumes of evidence that
would otherwise be considered legitimate in both a historiographical and
legal context.

All you're doing, Joe, is proving that you know virtually nothing of the
bureucratic workings of the Third Reich.  Furher orders only came when
Hitler had to personally intervene in a situation.  Otherwise, things got
done by members of the inner circle and their subordinates working to put
the impulses they were receiving from higher levels into practice.  Those
who did so properly were promoted through the ranks, those who
misunderstood the furher's intentions were not.

I breifly described this process as it related to the extermination of
the Jews in a previous post, which I cited in (and you clipped from) my
last message under:

I know its was called Operation Barbarossa, Joe.  In fact, I said in the
next sentence which you clipped that it was called Operation Barbarossa. 
And yes, there were a whole series of orders at various levels detailing
the operation, just as there was for the Final Solution.  But the fact
remains that there was not a furherbefel.  By the logic you use regarding
the genocide against the Jews, that would imply that it didn't happen.

No he didn't.  What he asked was for "construction plans for an execution
gas chamber along with detailed manuals on their use, transportation,
on-site commissioning, and maintenance", and I told him precisely where
such information was to be found.  If he had asked me to refer him to
Pressac, then that would mean that he already knew that these documents
existed and could be easily accessed, and therefore that his implication
that they do not exist would have been a result of intentional duplicity
rather than mere ignorance.

If you were honestly interested in the subject, you'd invest in a library
card, wouldn't you, Joe?

Alright then, Joe, what were the "special actions" that required an
additional crematorium building on the cite of Auschwitz II in July 1942?
 You tell me.



Report from Bischoff, head of construction management at Auschwitz, to
the SS economic and administrative head office in Berlin, regarding
construction at Auschwitz, 13 October 1942
[Auschwitz: Technique and operation of the gas chambers - J.C Pressac,
the Beate Klarsfeld Foundation, NY, 1989, p. 198]
--------------------------------------------------------------------
As regards the construction of the new crematorium building, it was
necessary to start immediately in July 1942 because of the situation
caused by the special actions.

"could have been" is as close to evidence as Bellinger gets.  A real
historian, in this situation, would look towards what the other forms of
evidence say regarding how this particular vergasungskammer was used.

department, to SS General Kammler, January 29, 1943
[The Final Solution: The Attempt to Exterminate the Jews of Europe,
1939-1945 - G. Reitlinger, South Brunswick, T. Yosellof, 1968, p. 158-159]
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Crematorium No. 2. The completed furnaces have been started up in
the presence of Engineer Prufer from Messers. Topf (of Erfurt). The
planks cannot yet be moved from the ceiling of the mortuary cellar
on account of frost, but this is not important, as the gassing
cellar can be used for that purpose. The ventilation plant has
been held up by restrictions on rail transport, but the installation
should be ready by February 20th.

And what?  He asked for documents relating to construction, use,
transportation, and maintenance of the gassing facilities at Auschwitz
and I provided three examples and a reference to a book that provides
many more for those who are honestly interested.  Any questions?

Allow me to finish the sentence:

What he did state was:

"I would have to be assured that these men made their report free of
institutional pressures of any kind."

The implication being that a certain unnamed number of credible experts
are under pressure from an equally unnamed source to say something other
than the truth.  Do you have another explanation as to what
"institutional pressure" means and where it might come from?  It is
another example of his creating a fudge-factor by which he could exclude
the hundreds of well-researched studies that confirm and present the
evidence relating to the Holocaust.  Anything he doesn't like can be
written off to "institutional pressure".

I provided an URL where one could find detailed and conclusive proof that
Leuchter is both a con artist and a perjurer.  Will you point us to
evidence to back up your accusation that me and my "Nizkook friends" are
the same, or is it just more of your slander and libel?

I, for one, am not familiar with this evidence, so I'd appreciate it if
you'd refer me specifically to the post in which it was promised to you,
because I would like, for my own interest, to track this evidence down if
it does exist.

As for your first assertion: since, in the extermination centres, the
crematoria were located in the same building, and in fact connected to
the gas chambers, the chances that the SS left a body that had been
gassed by hydrogen cyanide lying around for autopsy are extremely slim.

Bodies of those who were executed by other means have been found.

No, because you can't do autopsies on ashes, fifty years after the fact,
idiot.

As I said, they were chosen and employed by the defendants, so "best
possible defence" consists of however those defendants wanted to be
defended.  If they thought they could prove that the crime for which they
were accused was never committed, I'm sure they would have tried.  In the
real world, the best they could do was attempt to minimize their own
responsibility, which they did to the best of their abilities.	If the
verdicts and sentences (including the jail terms and aquittals) were
decided beforehand, then why even bother?

You have never once cited evidence to prove that any statement made by
any witness was untrue.  I have been asking you for four weeks to repost
or refer to a post in which you have done so, and you have either ignored
me or evaded the question.  Therefore, I must conclude that this
statement is merely one more example of Bellinger blowing smoke.

Of course I know it.  Because you and your "revisionist" friends will
never get off your asses and make the effort to interview a genuine
witness.  If you did, you'd lose your right to whine about how some
mysterious force is "preventing" you from accessing this otherwise
readily available source of evidence.

Yes.  Thinking is so much easier when you don't have all of those pesky
facts getting in your way.  Joe knows that.

But the fact that it does not prove torture is not a point to be taken
lightly, particularly as you attempted to use the invented list of
heinous tortures above to make your point.  You can argue against ANY
confession for any crime on the grounds that torture MAY have been used,
but the facts that 1) no evidence has been presented suggesting that
these or any other manner of torture was used; and, 2) none of those who
confessed ever claimed to have been tortured or changed their stories
plays into the equation rather significantly, does it not?

Funny.	There were a number of very controversial decisions at Nuremberg
and not all of the judges always agreed.

Granted, Nuremberg was an exceptional situation, but I don't think I'm
out of line in asking you to back up this assertion that it was nothing
more than "a little ceremony designed to provide some gloss of legality
to decisions that had been reached beforehand."

> Leastways, that

Fine.  So you are not the first to question the principles of
jurisprudence employed at Nuremberg, but this has no effect on the
instrinsic quality of the masses of evidence that were presented therein.

Please give me a reference on the Stone quote.	I'd like to find out what
he really said.

Then step away from Nuremberg for a moment and ask yourself why even
those defendants who did not receive the death sentence and went on to
live long and fruitful lives never once accused their captors of forcing
confessions out of them and never once recanted what they had said.

As I asked before, were Speer's balls in a vice the whole time he was
writing those two books that he wrote after the war?

Says you and no one else.  Why don't you ask someone who actually studies
the Holocaust without a vested interest in proving it a hoax what
Holocaust historiography rests on.  Straw-man time again, Mr. Phillips? 
Or do you really think you can make such an absurd statement without
being required to back it up?

I would recommend, in the future, Mr. Phillips, that you cite works from
more credible sources.	Citing a book distributed by a neo-Nazi outfit
without a qualified historian in its ranks, which is explicitly dedicated
to very little other than Holocaust denial does not do wonders for your
credibility.  Have you ever read a book about the Holocaust by a real
historian, Mr. Phillips?  Tell the truth.

information can be found at http://www.nizkor.org/faqs/ihr/

The extermination process was not slowed down, though some of its
fuctionaries were receiving conflicting orders toward the end.	The death
marches were designed to keep Jews within the Nazi sphere of influence
for as long as possible.  The fact is, the Nazis lost the war, and missed
out on killing all of the witnesses as efficiently as they would have
liked.	How hard is that to understand?

>From  Germany?  Do your homework, sir. Your theory, already farfetched,
that the Jews invented the Holocaust because they predicted that someday
there would be a state of Israel that would be in need of aid and able to
milk reparations from Germany is damaged by the fact that Israel never
asked for these reparations once the opportunity arose, and was even
reluctant to take them when offered.

And does that automatically mean that the guilt is not genuine?  On the
contrary, why would a government - not even to mention private
corporations - pay such large quantities of money to a foreign country
with nary so much as a whimper if the event from which their guilt
derived was so easy to disprove?

Millions of people can have billions of dollars, Mr. Phillips...
businesses, properties, labor, never mind putting a dollar value on
lives.	But I never said that it was calculated down to the pfenning. 
That can never be done.  All I'm saying is that Germany owed for the
large quantity of property in their economy that had been illegally
obtained.  A country that wants to enter the democratic family of nations
does not want to be saddled with an economic history like that.  Wouldn't
you agree that it is better for German honor to know that they became an
economic giant in Europe through their own free enterprise, rather than
as a result of the legalized theft and slavery of the Nazi regime.

Good.  Then you'll be willing to back up this vicious accusation with
some evidence.	You will have to explain to me exactly why you believe
that Jews have the power and the desire to "undermine our very sense of
race and nation". Otherwise I shall have to conclude that you are merely
spewing the same anti-Semitic mythology that caused otherwise sane people
to herd otherwise innocent people into gas chambers simply for the crime
of having been born to a certain religious minority.  Go for it, Mr.
Phillips - if this is the basis of your entire theory regarding the
Holocaust, let's see from whence this theory really derives.

You're the prosecutor now, Mr. Phillips.  Calling something fact does not
make it so.

I would submit that the last refuge of the "dialectically beleagured" is
to attack style rather than addressing content.

No you didn't, Joe.  If you had, you'd accompany this claim with a
reference to the post in which you did.  I continue to submit that you
have never once posted cited evidence in support of one of your claims
against eyewitnesses.  If this is untrue, prove me wrong.  "Been there,
done that" doesn't cut it.

So tell me, Joe: why are you afraid to tell me exactly where and when
this discussion took place?  Was this another case of your being made to
look like a complete fool?  Are you afraid that if I find the discussion
in question, I might repost it, and show that your characterization of it
below is utter bullshit?  Of course, this is all speculation on my part,
seeing as Bellinger won't provide the citing in question, but considering
his history of falling on his face time and time again, I consider it an
educated guess.

My bluff, Joe?

Joe, unless you're about to argue that typhus causes one's head to fall
off, it is pretty safe to assume that a headless corpse has met with some
manner of foul play.  Whether it was murdered by cyanide gassing or
phenol injection is little more than a detail.

Ah, look.  Bellinger thinks he's made a point.  How cute.

Yes, Joe has beat another straw-man of his own making into the ground. 
That's what "revisionism" is all about.

Evidence that would be admissable in any court of law towards proving
premeditated murder.  But the fact remains that at neither of those
trials was the charge of murdering people by gas specified.

Whether gas chambers were used in these cases or not, the victims are no
less dead, and were no less killed by the accused as a result of Nazi
policy.  Chalk that "big one" up for "revisionism".

Precisely which, as I said, is why section 319 of the Canadian Criminal
Code is very clear on the point that it only applies to the "willful
promotion of hatred against an identifiable group", not all "things said
about his group".  That, very specifically, implies the despicable act of
targeting a vulnerable group with propaganda intentionally aimed at
creating a threatening a potentially violent atmosphere for them in our
otherwise democratic society.  Did you miss that part?

I consider that a highly unfair characterization, considering how little
you know about me.  I happen to believe very strongly in the inherent
value of all human life, and I believe I would stand up for that
principle regardless of where it was being challanged.	Hitler and Stalin
rejected that principle, and I would like to think I would have stand
against them for that very reason.  At present, the government of the
free and democratic country in which I reside respects that principle. 
However, my humanity is offended by the existence of the Holocaust
deniers you associate with who would whitewash murder in the name of
promoting their obviously murderous ideology.  How hard is that for you
to understand?

We don't know that, do we Bob?	Seeing as no one has attempted propegate
their ideology by denying the massacre of Ukranians by Stalin, this
statement of yours has yet to be tested.

I happen to respect the position of the ACLU.  Ironically, I spoke to
their national president just last week, and she said something along the
lines of just what you're saying now - that true civil libertarians stand
up for freedom even for the speech that they hate, even speech that is
anti-civil liberties, even anti-Semitic and racist speech.  They're
certainly not hypocrites, unlike the neo-Nazis who seem to believe that
freedom of speech means everybody else shutting up and not calling them
what they are.

Stalin was a murderer, pure and simple.  The only difference between him
and Hitler is that he killed innocent people who were politically
annoying to him, whereas Hitler killed innocent people simply for being
born.  There is a difference, but the innocent victims are no less dead
either way.  If someone was trying to deny that Stalin ever killed
anyone, I would no doubt be offended.  Fortunately, no one, to my
knowlegde, has sunk quite that low as of yet.

Am I still "PC" Bob?  Not that I care how you label me.

Bellinger, whatever you do, please don't ever, EVER stop posting to this
newsgroup.  You're posts serve as a better living demonstration of the
moral and intellectual bankruptcy of Holocaust denial than anything that
we could ever say or do.  We were just about ready to make you the

It is now week five (5) of Bellinger's categorical refusal to refer to
even one post in his sorry history with alt.revisionism in which he has
provided cited evidence to back up one of his claims.  For someone who
makes as many controversial assertions as he does per day, one would
expect that it would be a very easy challenge to meet.  But Bellinger
does not need proof!  He has the TRUTH.  Everybody who disagrees with
him only has LIES.

It has been an interesting week five.  In:

... Bellinger tried to turn my tactics around on me by posing a
challenge of his own.  He challenged me to find evidence I've never
heard of, that had nothing to do with the topic we were discussing, that
he had apparently discussed with someone else on another thread that he
would not reference and that had nothing to do with me.  From what I
could gather, he placed ultimate importance on the question of whether
dismembered corpses - found at the Stutthof concentration camp along
with documentary evidence that they had been ordered dismembered by the
SS doctor on site with the approval of Himmler - had died from gassing
or lethal injection.  While his point continues to escape me, I told him
I'd look into it.

It is noted that you consider your credibility to be a frivolous
question, but if I were you I would make time. Because I have decided
that I am going to post this message every week until you answer what
should be a very easy challenge for an honest debater to answer:

"For as long as I have been on this NG, you have never once provided one

citation or explanation for any one of your claims.  If I am wrong,
please refer me specifically to a post that contradicts this assertion,
so that I might apologize."

It has been just over five (5) weeks since this challenge was first
posted.
Bellinger refuses to respond.  This message will be resposted every
Friday until such time as Bellinger: 1) Re-posts or refers to a message
in which he has provided cited evidence and an explanation for one of
his claims; or, 2) admits that he never does.

Until Bellinger answers this question, his failure to do so will be
noted
as meaning that he cannot.  Any attempts by Bellinger to evade this
challenge will be appended to future postings.

WEEK 4:



Well, ladies and gentlemen, it has been an exciting week 4.  This was
the week in which Bellinger decided that he was disappointing his
imaginary legion of lurker-fans with his failure to refer to even one
post in which he has cited documented evidence is support of his
claims.  He answered last weeks challange in the following post:

Beginning with his usual show of righteous indignation:

"Your post is sio ludicrous that I am almost baffled for a reply."

Then instead of answering the question and referring to a post in which
he has cited evidence in support of one of his claims, he provided for
us a bibliography, without any explanation as to how these works, which
make use of the eyewitness testimony he so causally rejects, have been
used by him in the past to support his accusations that these
eyewitnesses are liars.

He listed five perfectly respectible sources, and added "Etc, etc., etc,

ad infinitum."

Apparently, "ad infinitum" meant one more source, specified in:

"PS:  Almost forgot to include this one:

"The Good Old Days, by Klee.  You know it.  If you don't, go
ask Prima Donna Keren, as he distorts from it regularly."

Aside from the fact that he doesn't feel he has to justify this smear
against Mr. Keren, he also doesn't explain how he managed to use a book
that provides first-hand documentation detailing the Nazi genocide
against the Jews to prove that witnesses to said genocide are all liars.

The following day, after he had posted this claim that he cited evidence

so regularly he was "almost baffled for a reply", Bellinger proceded to
explain that he is under no obligation to provide evidence for his
claims:

"It is YOU who must provide EVIDENCE as you have assumed the role of
prosecutor."

"I need only shed doubt on your accusations,"

"I do not need PROOF"

He followed with his usual unsupported accusations:

"the accusation of Mengele having eye-balls tacked to his walls was
fabricated, maliciously contrived DRIVEL"

And cliches:

"Physician, heal thyself."

And his typical "argument" as to why all eye-witness evidence must be
rejected as a source for historical research:

"Prove to me that Jews really did NOT poison the wells of Europe.
Provide
the evidence, please.  Start with Genoa."

He also turned the challange around on me:

"When have YOU ever provided evidence, save of your own bias?"

I answered immediately in:

back up his accusations with evidence in another thread, entitled:

He made another attempt at pretending to answer my challange, referring
to a post in which he had cited evidence in such vague terms as to make
it virtually impossible to find:

"I referred to "The Good Old Days" in reply to Keren's post:

"An SS Court says the Jews have to be exterminated, or some drivel to
that effect.

"I don't remember the complete title.  Ask Keren or check in Deja News.

Bellinger made another vague reference to having posted cited evidence
before.

"I posted a whole article on Ehlert's testimony direct from
the pages of the Belsen Trial transcripts.  Now go look it up."

Sacrificing my self-respect, I've decided to actually waste the time to
do so.  I presume that the post to whch he was referring was:

Subject:      The Real Herta Ehlert

Date:         1996/12/21
Message-Id:   <59hlkd$9h0@juliana.sprynet.com>

While this post does indeed contain cited evidence, the precise point he

was attempting to prove with it escapes me.  All I saw was testimony
that conditions at Belsen were horrific towards the end of the war.  I
did not see any proof, outside of Bellinger's own unsupported fantasies
involving threats and torture, as to why the testimony of Ehlert is not
to be trusted, or a reason why any referece to it deserves the knee-jerk

response:

>  > REPLY:  Ehlert was a liar and I have already addressed this issue.


In summary, over the past week, Bellinger has dodged the challange with
smoke screens, turned the challange back on me, and provided excuses as
to why he was under no obligation to answer it.  What he has not done is

referred to even one post in his history with alt.revisionism in which
he has cited evidence in support of one of his accusations.  We shall,
as always, be waiting.

 ... consisted of five cropped and out-of-context quotes all of which can
be found on pages 337 and 338, which, lo and behold, are the first two
pages of the chapter on Mengele. (The Nazi Doctors; Robert Jay Lifton;
Basic Books Inc. Publishers, 1986; ISBN 0-465-04904-4)

Your argument, I recall, correct me if I'm wrong, was that Lifton, after
speaking in his introduction to the chapter about how a great deal of
sensationalism has surrounded the figure of Mengele since the 1960's, was
dishonest not to have summarily discarded all eyewitness evidence that
had been documented on Mengele both before and after this time.

This is, of course, the dumbest argument ever to be suggested by a
revisionist on this newsgroup (and as you can imagine, that puts it up
against some pretty stiff competition).  It certainly does not give you
the right to say that you "demolished" Dr. Lifton every time someone

So like Nazis to consider the above an answer. And so like Nazis to
consider themselves "everybody". And so like Michael the Nazi, in
particular, to avoid dealing with any of the substantive posts and save
his vast rhetorical talents for smears and innuendos.

Once Bellinger has resorted to clipping my arguments down to the bald
assertions so that he can mischaracterize them and dismiss them with
vague one-liners, it seems pretty clear that he's given up.  Still, I'd
like to point out some of the more obvious "Bellingerisms" in his recent
post, if only for old-times sake.

All you said was that he was "anti-German" without explaining or proving
how. You could (and do) dismiss anyone who disagrees with your
preconceived notions with that label.  It still doesn't explain the fact
that nobody qualified to study the subject takes your conspiracy theories
seriously.

I never said that, Bellinger.  There were, in fact, acts of genuine
humanity even among the SS.  If you had really read Lifton, like you
claim to have, you would know that at least one SS doctor was aquitted of
war crimes on the basis of survivor testimony that he had acted as
humanely as possible under the circumstances.  Kind of knocks a hole or
two in your theory of an nefarious conspiracy of survivors concocting
lies to smear otherwise innocent men. Explain why Mengele was targeted in
this way whereas this other doctor wasn't.

Now answer my question without twisting my words:  Does the fact that the
allies wanted to show the world how evil Nazism was automatically mean
that Nazism wasn't evil?

Unsupported, untrue, and, anyway, beside the point.  We were discussing
whether the witnesses had ever been subjected to legitimate
cross-examination.  You called me a liar when I said that Eichmann had
appointed his own lawyer.  Now you are admitting that this is in fact
true, and therefore, I can assume you understand that you were out of
line in calling me a liar for saying so. Apology accepted.

We might not be missing it if you hadn't clipped it.  You asked me when
Heydrich was assasinated, and I told you.  You then said that if he was
dead by May, 1942, we could not blame him for planning the Final
Solution.  I said that the conference at which the plans for the Final
Solution were settled was completed four months previous.  Are you
admitting now that I was right again?  Apology accepted (unless of
course, you care to enlighten us regarding this "deeper point" you seem
to have in mind).

Because it meets the criterea you requested, and since you can't come up

I love that line.  I'm going to print it out in big letters and post it

Anyone who had any doubts about Bellinger's methodology can see the proof
right there: the more conclusive the evidence against my theory, the more
shrewd the conspiracy was that fabricated this evidence.

"Sonderkommando 4a in collaboration with Einsatzgruppe HQ and two
Kommandos of police regiment South, executed 33,771 Jews in Kiev on

Just one example, Joe.  The 195 reports published in the book cited above
(available in the original German as well as English translation) account for
about 1.5 million Jews, in clear and unequivocal language.  Any questions?

It has indeed been collected.  Whether it is in a format that is easily
accessible 50 years later, and can be easily posted on the Internet is
another matter.  But, of course, you must realize this.  Why else would
you refuse to acknowledge all evidence until 20-30 drawings of 17"x22"
each and a 200-300 page booklet were presented to you?

Do you really think that this is the only archive of Holocaust documents

I tell ya what - it so happens I'll be in L.A. this December.  I'll see

No, only 30 pieces of paper of no less than 17"x22" and a book containing
no less than 200 pieces of paper.  Any other evidence, no matter how
conclusive, may be dismissed by you with a casual "Conclusive, my ass".

A serious historian takes every piece of evidence available and carefully
analyzes what he can and can't learn from it.  Have you done that with the
evidence I've already posted?

Really.  Just what evidence did I post that was second or third hand?

And thank you for admitting that it is highly implausible that any
researcher would have made such documents readily available, even if they
do exist.  The next step in the intellectually honesty game is admitting
that this is the only reason you're demanding this specific piece of
evidence to begin with.

No, I expect you to do your own homework.  You made the claim.	I
referred you to a book that proves you wrong.  I suggest you look up that
book before making a fool of yourself again.

There are levels of secrecy, Mr. Phillips.  Plus the fact that the Nazis
weren't stupid.  Unlike most Holocaust deniers, they were aware that its
functionally impossible to keep a secret between more than about four
people.  These documents had to be circulated to a number of different
departments, despite their secretive nature (which is why we have copies
of so many of them).  One who has actually studied the documents will
note that the language used in them varies depending on the departments
that had access to them (eg. the vagueness of the language in the minutes
of the Wansee conference which were circulated to 30 different
departments, vs. the very clear language in the Einsatzgruppen reports
which went directly from the field commanders to SS headquarters).

The documents I have already produced show that what the eyewitnesses

Memos are original documents, Mr. Phillips.  Many of them contain
precisely those detailed instructions that you require.  Please do your
research before you try to make authoritative statements.

Mr. Phillips, rather than jump to the conclusion that I'm avoiding this
challenge in order to help cover up an elaborate hoax, you could jump to
the far more obvious conclusions that:

1) The book is out of print; and, 2) Even if it were still in print,
you're assuming that I could care less what you, personally, think about
the Holocaust.	My only purpose in responding to your original post was
to show that the logic and methodology you employ is flawed to the point
where it could be nothing but a deliberate attempt at obfuscation on your
part.

As I told you when first asked me to mail you the book: please invest in
a library card.  It would save us both a lot of trouble.  And, if you
would use it next time before announcing to the world that there are no
documents relating to the constuction, use and maintenance of the gas
chambers, it would save you quite a bit of embarrassment.

"Your honor, the prosecution has presented documents proving that my
client had the murder weapon in his possession, transportation records
proving that he was at the scene of the crime, numerous witnesses
claiming that they saw the murder committed by my client, and recordings
made by my client prior to the murder announcing his intention to committ
it.  But they have not produced the 200 page instruction manual for the
murder weapon, without which this crime would have been impossible, and
therefore he must not be guilty."

Fine.  I, Steve Mock, being of sound mind and body, do confess that at
this time I do not personally have access to 20-30 17"x22" blueprints of
gas chambers and a 200 page instruction manual called "Crematoria for
Dummies".  I further confess that I have no idea whatsoever where such
materials are to be found, or whether or not they are to be found at all.
 I further confess that I don't care, since we've already posted
documents relating to the construction, use and maintenance of gas
chambers, and referred to a source where more such documents can be found
and referrenced, and you haven't even bothered to acknowledge, let alone
refute this evidence that I, along with every historian who deals with
the subject professionally, find quite conclusive.

Happy now?

You never asked for proof that they existed.  You asked for 20-30
drawings of 17"x22" each and a 200-300 page booklet.  Functionally
irrelevent when you consider the documentary evidence that has already
been posted, which you don't.
