Meanwhile, on the "CODOH Revisionist Forum" ...

... my old friend Drew J (who obviously knows that my CODOH account has not yet been reactivated, for he refers to the previous blog and thereby signals that he's interested in what we write here) is again mouthing off about me, thereby displaying a miserable personality and (as he claims to have bested me here and there) his delusions of adequacy.



In his post of Fri Mar 05, 2010 3:09 am, Drew J spins silly
conjectures about Goebbels' diaries not being authentic. The only "indication" he can offer is that in a certain diary entry I mentioned (which was brought to my attention by Drew J's fellow believer "Thomas Dalton" via a lower-ranking rambler who calls himself Ralph Gordon, see my RODOH post 11943) Goebbels shows no compunction to write about death and executions, as I pointed out. For Drew J this suggests that Goebbels' diaries are not authentic. Why Goebbels should not have called things by their proper names in his own private diary entry - a document not meant for public disclosure - Drew J doesn't explain, instead turning to imbecilic "Robert knows deep down inside but will never admit it" - accusations and babbling that "There seems to be no good reason to think those are authentic Goebbels diaries.". That the diary entries fit the historical context in which they were written in a manner suggesting contemporary insider knowledge (for instance, the diary entry of 27.03.1942 was written ten days after the start of deportations from Lublin to Belzec extermination camp and mentions the head of Aktion Reinhard(t), Odilo Globocnik, as "the former Gauleiter of Vienna"), that they were never used for propaganda purposes (one doesn't make forgeries to keep them in the drawer) but gradually became known as historians analyzed them and realized their significance, that neither historians nor criminal justice authorities referring to these diary entries (the entry of 27 March 1942 is mentioned, for instance, in the judgment at the Sobibor trial in Hagen in 1966) have found any reason to doubt the authenticity of these diaries (that includes erstwhile "Revisionist" favorite David Irving, who pointed out that he had personally been in Moscow and examined the originals of the diaries), plus his own inability to point out indications of forgery (Goebbels' having written about deaths and executions is none) - all this is no "good reason" for Drew J to "think those are authentic Goebbels diaries". His lack of arguments makes his forgery claims look increasingly desperate.

What is especially funny is that, while on the one hand "Revisionists" like "Dalton" and Gordon are pathetically trying to explain away the incriminating content of Goebbels' diaries, including but not limited to the one of 27 March 1942, other followers of the "Revisionist" creed such as Drew J are yelling "forgery" and thereby confirming that they consider Goebbels diary entries to have incriminating contents incompatible with their articles of faith. For if they didn't consider these diary entries to have incriminating contents, why would they be claiming that they are not authentic? A discussion between the two schools of "Revisionist" nonsense ("Dalton"/Gordon vs. Drew J/Heink) should be most amusing to watch.

The one good thing about Drew J is that he still seems to disagree with the cowardly disfigurement of links to the RODOH forum, which like other CODOH practices speaks volumes about the hypocrisy of their claim to "open debate". Drew J wrote:

Sorry but I have not reproduced hyperlinks here as codoh will not allow rodoh links to go unsubstituted with the old 'aliceinwonderland' thing.


I wonder long will it take for Drew J to also swallow this "thing" and fully tow the party line.

Drew J's obsession with this writer furthermore shows in his post of Fri Mar 05, 2010 3:09 am, where he writes the following:

Let's talk about how Hoess was tortured and how other nazis were tortured to say things to fit the propaganda. I went over this many times with Roberto Muehlenkamp, but he refuses to acknowledge reality. He eventually budged but said Hoess wasn't tortured. Just MISHANDLED. Can you believe that?


Drew J's claim that he "went over this" with me is funny insofar as the discussion took place on two different forums (me writing on the RODOH forum, where Drew J wouldn't show up, he writing on the CODOH forum where I was not allowed to write). The "budged" crap shows Drew J's eagerness to convince himself that he gained the upper hand (he must be so desperate to have an experience of success that he claims them in the absence of any). As to the "tortured" vs. "mishandled" thing, I'd call that a false dilemma as it doesn't matter which of the two terms one uses for the treatment that Hoess received at the hand of his British captors, which Hoess himself described as follows in the memoirs he later wrote in Polish captivity (from the translation by Constantine FitzGibbon published by Phoenix Press under the title "Commandant of Auschwitz", pages 173f.):

I was arrested on 11 March, 1946.
My phial of poison had been broken two days before.
When I was aroused from sleep, I thought at first I was being attacked by robbers, for many robberies were taking place at that time. That was how they managed to arrest me. I was maltreated by the Field Security Police.
I was taken to Heide where I was put in those very barracks from which I had been released by the British eight months earlier.
At my first interrogation, evidence was obtained by beating me. I do not know what is in the record, although I signed it. Alcohol and the whip were too much for me. The whip was my own, which by chance had got into my wife’s luggage. It had hardly ever touched my horse, far less the prisoners. Nevertheless, one of my interrogators was convinced that I had perpetually used it for flogging the prisoners.
After some days I was taken to Minden-on-the-Weser, the main interrogation center in the British Zone. There I received further rough treatment at the hands of the English public prosecutor, a major.


What matters, as I remember having pointed out to Drew J as we "went over this", was that Hoess stated nothing under the influence of this mishandling or torture (whichever term is Drew J's preference) that he didn't state, even in more detail, on later occasions when he was far removed from the influence of physical violence, namely in his testimony for the defence of Kaltenbrunner before the IMT and in his writings in Polish captivity, including his notes under the title The Final Solution of the Jewish Question in Auschwitz. In the latter he even told his captors where they could stick their 4 million figure for the death toll of Auschwitz-Birkenau. From the translation in "Commandant of Auschwitz", pages 193 and following (emphasis added):

I myself never knew the total number and I have nothing to help me make an estimate of it.
I can only remember the figure involved in the larger actions, which were repeated to me by Eichmann or his deputies.
From Upper Silesia and Polish territory under German rule … 250,000
Germany and Theresienstadt … 100,000
Holland … 95,000
Belgium … 20,000
France … 110,000
Greece … 65,000
Hungary … 400,000
Slovakia … 90,000
I can no longer remember the figures for the smaller actions, but they were insignificant in comparison with the numbers given above.
I regard a total of two and a half millions [stated by Hoess earlier interrogations including his IMT deposition - RM] as far too high. Even Auschwitz had limits to its destructive possibilities.
Figures given by former prisoners are figments of the imagination and lack any foundation.


Those Poles must have been squeezing Hoess's balls like hell for him to write this.

The figures given by Hoess add up to 1,130,000.

The figure estimated by the Soviet investigation in 1945, on the basis of the theoretical capacity of the installations and the depositions of former captives, was 4,000,000. This figure was officially upheld by the Polish government until 1992.

What Hoess was doing here was to directly challenge the reliability of his captors’ other sources, of their and the Soviet investigation commissions and of the eyewitnesses on which these commissions had relied. The latter he attacked in the strongest terms, calling them "figments of the imagination".

Why would the Poles let Hoess get away with this, if they had been bent on dictating his statements?

Why, if "Revisionists" were to be believed, would they even have coerced him into producing these highly inconvenient, counterproductive statements?

Were they so boundlessly dumb as to induce Hoess into shooting them in the foot, into openly writing into his memoirs that their own estimates of the death toll of his camp were wildly exaggerated?

Or is the "Revisionist" contention that what Hoess wrote was dictated or "doctored" by his captors what Hoess himself would have called "figments of the imagination" lacking any foundation?

I'll leave my friend Drew J to wonder about this (once more). Let's see if he can come up with something better than simply ignoring these and other inconvenient statements of Hoess that render absurd the claim that everything the man said or wrote was extracted from him by torture, or lamely claiming that the above-quoted writings of Hoess are not authentic.

As you will be reading this, Drew J, can I ask you for a favor? Please remind the CODOH moderator of reactivating my account, so that we can continue our conversation on the CODOH forum. Thanks in advance!

Reactions in the Cesspit ...

... to my blog So what’s happened on the Cesspit since I last looked in?

Obviously after reading the aforementioned blog, "Revisionist" primitive Greg Gerdes, on the Cesspit thread Muehlenkamp and Mermelstein, took issue with A Holland’s post of Sat Nov 21, 2009 4:48 pm.

And he did it with the only "arguments" that sparrow-brained fanatics like him have at their disposal, like the "tens of millions of teeth" nonsense, the baseless "physically impossible" claim (more intelligent "Revisionists" than him, like Carlo Mattogno, have tried and miserably failed to demonstrate physical, technical or logistical impossibilities) and, last but not least, his pathetic "can you show me just one this and that" – howling (as to what amounts of human remains from Nazi mass murder have been proven beyond a reasonable doubt to exist or have existed in the soils Babi Yar and the Nazi extermination camps Chelmno, Belzec, Sobibor and Treblinka, by "showing" such remains or otherwise, see among others my VNN posts nos. 172, 194, 777, 1710 and 1825 and my RODOH posts nos. 10971, 11200 and 11216, as well as the HC blogs mentioning Babiy Yar, Chelmno, Belzec, Sobibor and Treblinka). Poor Greg, I can only feel sorry for the way he keeps banging his hollow head against the wall of facts inconvenient to his articles of faith.

The other rabid Jew-hater addressed in my aforementioned blog, "Dr Jew" or "Drew J", shot his bull on the thread New challenge & reward offered by the NAFH, in his post of Wed Dec 09, 2009 6:24 pm, which I shall comment hereafter.

Drew J:
You 'prove' it by citing someone's memoirs. Memoirs of someone who allegedly has no reason to lie and wants to report something that really happened so that humanity can correct the mistake and learn from it and allow it to happen...NEVER AGAIN. Incase no one noticed, this seems to be Roberto's latest answer to Greg Gerdes' challenge of providing 'just one name' of a person who died in a gas chamber.


Drew J obviously didn’t pay much attention in reading my blog "Can you give the name of just one Jew, with proof, who was gassed?" and the excerpts from and introduction and biographical note to Oscar Strawczynski’s memoir in my RODOH post # 11612. Otherwise he might have realized that Oscar Strawczynski wrote his memoir in memory of his family members murdered at Treblinka (and not "so that humanity can correct the mistake and learn from it and allow it to happen...NEVER AGAIN") and didn’t exactly go out of his way to have it published. What is more, he refused to change or edit his manuscript after the war when urged to do so, because of the frankness with which the Jewish collaboration in Treblinka was depicted, by a Jewish community organization interested in publishing the memoir. The background and intention of genuine survivor memoirs like Strawczynski's is obviously a far cry from what ignorant intellectual dwarfs like Drew J would like it to be.

As to Drew J's inevitable "allegedly", what arguments supporting this feeble claim of manipulation does Drew J have against the essential accuracy of a memoir that

a) Is matched by other eyewitness, documentary and physical evidence to the mass murder at Treblinka, including but not limited to the evidence listed in my VNN posts nos. 172, 194,777 and 1825 and in previous posts on this blogspot, and

b) Was written by someone who never behaved in a manner that would call in question his credibility, who on the contrary – as pointed out in my related blog - was found to be highly reliable when testifying at a trial before the courts of a constitutional state like the German Federal Republic, held according to the defendant-friendly procedural rules of that constitutional state?

Let's see.

Drew J
Citing another memoir from an eyewitness who allegedly saw a bunch of people who went into a large room, screamed (because of gas) and never came out again. It seems like for every 'genuine' memoir we have on record that Muehlenkamp would throw his support behind, we can always dig up another false or exaggerated memoir. The latest from Eric Hunt is just one example out of many. The fact that many have lied already and been exposed, and are probably doing a religious duty by lying to circumvent Gentiles (Kol Nidre), justifies agnosticism about these so called eyewitness memoirs. If you doubt this look at what he says about me in another blog entry.


I doubt that bigmouths like Drew J can provide demonstrably false or substantially embellished memoirs in numbers to even match the authentic and essentially accurate depositions transcribed in my RODOH thread Treblinka Eyewitness Accounts. But even if they could, or even if false or substantially embellished depositions outnumbered authentic and essentially accurate ones, what would this mean? Would this justify skepticism as concerns the factuality of mass murder at Nazi extermination camps, as described by a great many essentially reliable eyewitnesses, largely from the ranks of the German camp administration, whose descriptions are corroborated by documents and other sources of evidence? No more so than the existence of thousands if not millions of phony Vietnam veterans justifies skepticism in regard to the historical record of the US War in Vietnam.

One thing that true believers like Drew J don’t realize is that, for their articles of faith to hold true, they cannot content themselves with bitching about this or that fake eyewitness, any more than hypothetical deniers of the war in Vietnam can make a point by exposing one or the other phony Vietnam vet. What they have to do is demonstrate that all eyewitnesses to Nazi mass murder, whether survivors or bystanders or perpetrators and even if considered reliable by the courts of constitutional states like the German Federal Republic, made up their stories from A to Z. And the fact is that "Revisionists" have not only failed to tackle most eyewitnesses, but are even unaware of the overwhelming majority. Consider, for example, the eyewitnesses on whose descriptions the Düsseldorf District Court based its reconstruction of events at Treblinka in the 1965 judgment against Kurt Franz and others, as quoted in my blog More Fun With Ugly Voice Productions (Part 1):

The findings of fact in Part One are based
1. on the depositions of the defendants, insofar as they can be relied upon,
2. on the depositions, insofar as they can be relied upon, of the unsworn witnesses attorney- at-law A., salaried employee O., merchant Hä., accountant M., merchant L., company officer R., salaried employee v. He., sales representative W., emeritus university professor Dr. Pf., fitter N., tally clerk F., nurse U., locksmith D., waiter Josef Oberhauser, truck driver Erich Bauer, nurse G., Vice President of the Federal Railways Direction Kassel Z., Federal Railways leading counsel Ri., counsel St., Federal Railways director Za., train driver S., Federal Railways leading inspector ret. Pi., Federal Railways leading secretary We., train driver Sc., leading train driver K., former police counsel Hei., salaried employee Sch., master automobile mechanic Fu., janitor J., night porter Bo., mason La., counsel of the Polish State Railways Zab., salaried employee Str., salaried employee Bi., salaried employee Ra., locksmith Josef Hirtreiter, pensioner Gi., merchant Le., salaried employee Ge., locksmith Pa., textiles technician Rei., stenographer Irmgard Franz, decorator Wa., actor Th. and engineer Pos.,
3. on the sworn and credible depositions of the witnesses burner Ki., merchant Gie., merchant Ko., lecturer Wes., engineer Ley., district court counsel Schw., merchant Ja., sawmill director Raj., salaried employee Au., plumber Oscar Stra., hairdresser Bom., presser Rap., engineer Gl., hairdresser Pla., civil servant Sz., state employee Li., port warehouse clerk Ros., locksmith Tai., painter Hell., repository administrator Lak., mechanic Tu., construction technician Koh., locksmith Ku., office clerk Lew., merchant Jan., hotel direction assistant Sed., butcher Roj., deputy manager Sp., housewife Ka., butcher Wei., textiles merchant Ka., librarian Pfo., cushion maker and decorator Zi., merchant Kols., tailor Lach., fruit salesman Br., housewife Su., merchant Do., master brewer Un., manager Zygmund Stra., textiles merchant Bu., butcher Schnei. and butcher Go.,
4. on the expert opinions, all of them rendered under oath, about "SS and Police in the NS State" by the scientific consultant at the Institute for Contemporary History in Munich, Dr. Buch., about "The Persecution of the Jews by the NS Regime" by library counsel and assistant professor at Göttingen University Dr. Ser., about "The National Socialist Persecution of the Jews in the General Government" by the college lecturer at the Pedagogic Academy in Lüneburg von Krann., about "The Number of Victims in Treblinka Extermination Camp" by the Director of the Institute for Contemporary History in Munich Dr. Kraus. and about "Euthanasia and Destruction of Life Not Worth Living in the Third Reich" by Marburg University professor Dr.Dr. E., as well as
5. on the documents read out and named in the session protocols, which were available to the jury court in photocopy or transcription and the concordance of which with the originals is subject to no doubt.


Drew J may want to tell us how many Treblinka eyewitnesses are mentioned in the above translated excerpt – besides Oscar Strawczynski – that "Revisionists" have never heard of let alone attempted to refute.

In my blog So what’s happened on the Cesspit since I last looked in? I wrote the following about some of Drew J’s earlier ramblings:

Yawn. As if any HC blogger had ever written anything suggesting that he accepted the overblown Soviet estimate of the Majdanek death toll. Drew J is setting up a straw-man so obvious that one can only fell sorry for his stupidity.

And what follows is no better: after some brainless bitching about another of Sergey’s articles (also written by "Muehlenkamp", of course), he goes into a rabid tirade against all those "liars" and tops it off with a lengthy quote about his favorite guru Joseph G. Burg's testimony at the Zündel trial – because, you see, all eyewitnesses to mass killing in Nazi extermination camps are inveterate liars but a "Revisionist" fanatic's gibberish is the gospel truth, in the cloud-cuckoo-land of other "Revisionist" fanatics.


Missing another chance to cut his losses by shutting up, Drew J lashes out in defense of his idol.

Guess Roberto just can't let it go. Burg had no reason to lie except that muehlenkamp says so.


No, except that J. G. Burg (Joseph Ginsberg) was a "Revisionist" true believer who, in defense of his faith, had made claims as bizarre as those quoted in the Negationist Team 2nd Response 6/22/2004 of the RODOH forum's Auschwitz Gas Chambers Debate:

The Jewish author Josef G. Ginsburg:

These [German] war crime trials will not be a blessing for the German people. The hanging of those tried and sentenced to death by the International Military Tribunal should have made an end to this sad chapter. The victors were shortsighted and very poorly advised when they subjected the Bundesrepublik to this cruel spectacle, because the continuation of these so called war crime trials was dictated to the Bundesrepublik in the General Treaty with Germany. Germans were to sit in judgement against Germans in this vile form. This is no search for justice but a proven anti-German policy.


The opposing debating team's comment to this slobbering nonsense was the following:

With all due respect for Mr. Ginsburg and his right to utter his personal opinion - if correctly rendered by our opponents - this author seems to have been woefully misinformed about two things:

1. That it was "the victors" who "subjected the Bundesrepublik to this cruel spectacle, because the continuation of these so called war crime trials was dictated to the Bundesrepublik in the 'General Treaty' with Germany";

2. That the trials conducted by West German criminal judgment made "Germans ... sit in judgment against Germans" in a "vile form", pursuing "a proven anti-German policy" rather than searching for justice.

Regarding item 1, it should be pointed out that according to the provisions of the German Criminal Code (Strafgesetzbuch), which first came into force on 15 May 1871, German criminal law applies to crimes committed against or by German citizens. In other words, what Ginsburg believes the "victors" to have "subjected" the Bundesrepublik to results from German legal provisions that were in force long before there were any "victors" to subject Germans to anything, and started being gradually applied by West German criminal justice authorities as West Germany regained her sovereignty. The development of the prosecution of Nazi crimes by West German criminal justice is explained on the Justiz und NS Verbrechen website of the University of Amsterdam, under the link http://www1.jur.uva.nl/junsv/JuNSVEng/JuNSV%20English%20homepage.htm in an article which we highly recommend to read.

It becomes clear from this article that

i) during the years 1945 to 1952, the victors, far from forcing German to try Germans as Ginsburg would have it, limited the jurisdiction of German courts, which together with a lack of interest by German criminal justice authorities in crimes committed against foreigners led to prosecution being mostly focused on crimes committed by and against Germans on German soil;

ii) during the ensuing six years, 1953 to 1959, West German criminal justice, while restored to full sovereignty, lost interest in prosecuting Nazi crimes and limited its activities to a few "chance hits" or "leftovers" from the previous period, which furthermore resulted mostly in acquittals or stayed cases;

iii) The "reorientation" of the judiciary regarding the prosecution of Nazi crimes during the ensuing period resulted not from any foreign imposition, but from a "change in generations and spiritual climate" inside Germany;

iv) Prosecution of Nazi crimes was hampered by the West German legislative, which issued or changed legislation in such a way as to make most Nazi crimes fall under the statute of limitations when they could have been prosecuted;

v) The number of defendants whose trial ended without punishment was always considerable - roughly 50 per cent - and considerably higher than the number of defendants who were given a life sentence, even though the German criminal code mandates this sentence in case of murder.

The last of these characteristics leads us to item 2 of Ginsburg's assumptions. Aside from the West German law of criminal procedure (Strafprozessordnung) corresponding to the defendant-friendly principles of a constitutional state, the way in which both the procedural law and the material criminal law have been applied regarding Nazi crimes has been considered benevolent beyond the demands of law even by historians who expressly praise the achievements of German criminal justice, like Martin Broszat.

Quote:[...]Often reprimanded for its careful judgments, pleading for the accused or for facts not being provable in case of doubt, the judiciary of the German Federal Republic, with its voluminous investigation apparatus working over many years, has especially in the area of the extermination camps often contributed more to the clarification of this National Socialist crime complex than would have been possible to historians.[...]

The above is our translation from: Ino Arndt/Wolfgang Scheffler, "Organisierter Massenmord in Nationalsozialistischen Vernichtungslagern". Vorbemerkung von Martin Broszat. In: Peter Maerthesheimer / Ivo Frenzel, Im Kreuzfeuer: Der Fernsehfilm Holocaust. Eine Nation ist betroffen, 1979 Fischer Taschenbuch Verlag Frankfurt am Main, page 174.

Other historians and legal scholars are less gentle in their assessment of West German justice:

Quote:[...]If criminal trials nevertheless took place, the courts could not close their eyes before the enormous crimes that were exhibited before them, but they didn't want to make anyone responsible for these crimes. The judges' shyness to even call anyone a "murderer" flourished in a noteworthy manner. The Hannover County Court, for instance, sentenced an NS-perpetrator, who had committed a number of murders with his own hands, as "accomplice to murder", i.e. as a mere assistant of the murderer proper. And his superior, who had given him the corresponding orders, the court convicted merely as an "inciter". As there was no further actor between the two, the murders were factually "deeds without a perpetrator".
[...]
Against the actually convicted NS-criminals the courts often issued sentences which, according to the former Hessian General Public Prosecutor Fritz Bauer, came "rather close to mocking the victims". In the early 1960s, the German coordination council of the Christian-Jewish Society observed "since some time and with increasing concern, that the sworn courts [Schwurgerichte] of the German Federal Republic are treating mass murders and violent crimes from the National Socialist era (concentration camps, ghettoes, Einsatzgruppen etc. ... differently from other murders", that the Nazi criminals were given "minimum sentences for >complicity in murder< which, in the eyes of the general public, reduced the participation in mass murder to a crime in the order of magnitude of, say, heavy theft or professional receiving of stolen goods". One or two days imprisonment for every proven murder were not a rarity at these trials, and this was by no means only due to the astronomically high numbers of victims.[...]

The above is our translation from: Ingo Mueller, Furchtbare Juristen, 1987 Kindler Verlag GmbH, Munich, pages 250 and 257/258.

A cruel spectacle, Mr. Ginsburg? Certainly so - for the survivors of the mass murders testifying in court.

The pursuit of a "proven anti-German policy", Mr. Ginsburg? Nonsense.

The emotional Mr. Ginsburg obviously didn't know what he was talking about. And it speaks volumes for the quality of the NT's "research" that, instead of looking for scholarly assessments of the handling of Nazi crimes by West German criminal justice, they preferred to make an uninformed writer - accurate rendering of Mr. Ginsburg's utterances provided - into the "key witness" of their case against a criminal justice which, if anything, can only be accused of having applied the defendant-friendly procedural rules of a constitutional state in an exceedingly cautious and benevolent manner in favor of the defendants when it came to Nazi crimes.


As we can see, Burg was one to make claims so divorced from reality as to warrant the conclusion that he was either lying through his teeth or lived in a fantasy world where his wishful thinking and preconceived notions became reality. He was certainly not a witness to be taken at face value on anything without independent corroboration.

Drew J
Well maybe that's not fair. Perhaps we know Burg is a liar because other memoirs contradict his.


The problem is not that "other memoirs" contradict Burg’s claims as concerns Auschwitz-Birkenau, but that these claims are at odds with

a) dozens of eyewitness testimonies independent of each other, often from former SS-men and/or subject to cross-examination at trials before the courts of the German Federal Republic, a constitutional state,
b) documentary evidence corroborating those testimonies as concerns homicidal gassing at Auschwitz-Birkenau,
c) physical evidence corroborating the eyewitness and documentary evidence and
d) documentary and demographic evidence showing that hundreds of thousands of Jews were transported to Auschwitz-Birkenau and never left the place alive.

Some exhibits from this huge body of evidence are mentioned in the Veritas Team Opening Statement 4/2/04 of the aforementioned debate on the RODOH Forum.

A witness with an obvious ideological motivation like Burg, whose claims are contradicted by a huge body of evidence and have no evidence corroborating them (other than perhaps the claims of other characters with the same ideological agenda) is dismissed as a liar or a loony in the real world. Not so in "Revisionist" cloud-cuckoo-land.

Drew J
Fine but mere contrarian views aren't enough. There needs to be evidence behind them. Unfortunately, it is lacking.


An interesting exercise in double-think, considering that the "contrarian views" here are those of Drew J and his guru Burg, which are not only without evidentiary support but at odds with all known eyewitness, documentary and physical evidence.

Drew J
Especially about the gas chambers in Auschwitz, which Leuchter showed problems with, was then countered, but then which Rudolf refuted and basically enabled Leuchter to update and correct his previous work.


Drew J seems to be a more than a little slow on the uptake, otherwise he would have realized that Rudolf's "refutations" were shown to be mendacious pseudo-scientific nonsense (albeit more sophisticated than Leuchter's rather primitive crap) in several articles and an expert report written by a professional colleague of Rudolf’s:

The Chemistry of Auschwitz

Leuchter, Rudolf & the Iron Blues

Chemistry is not the Science

Report of Richard J. Green, PhD

Drew J
If Muehlenkamp and co. really cared about genuine holocaust victims, they would do their best to expose these phony memoirs like Eric Hunt is doing.


Unlike whoever this Hunt fellow is, I'm aware that every historical event or phenomenon has its phonies and wannabes and that such phonies and wannabes have little if any impact on the accurate historical record of such event or phenomenon. Hence such phonies and wannabes are not on top of my list of priorities.

Drew J
Hunt himself said he is in contact with Jews who are upset that these other Jewish liars are going to be exposed and make more people doubt the holocaust.


Mr. Hunt should tell such Jews – if existing – that only someone with manure instead of brains would "doubt the holocaust" because of one or the other phony "survivor", just like only someone with manure instead of brains would doubt that there was a US war in Vietnam because of all those phony "veterans" telling Rambo tales in bars throughout the US on a Saturday night. Drew J is kindly invited to forward my recommendation in this sense to Mr. Hunt.

Drew J
Now I say that when millions die all over Europe by murder or starving, and are taken into camps and lose their families to bullets or disease, that's a holocaust. You don't need gas chambers or six million dead for a holocaust. I have given links before to a Zundel video where he didn't deny a holocaust happened in world war two. He said it was a holocaust for all of Europe, not just Jews. But because he doesn't favour Jews, he gets into trouble.


The issue is not failing to "favor Jews", which is something I also do every time I point out that there were also millions of non-Jewish victims of Nazi mass murder. The issue is denying that millions of Jews were murdered by the Nazis through various methods including but not limited to gassing, and that they were murdered in the context of a program to wipe out European Jewry.

Drew J
Roberto still can't deal with the fact that Berg talked to Ilya Ehrenburg the six million dollar man himself and revealed under oath in a Canadian court that Ilya himself confessed to Burg that he didn't see proof of Auschwitz gas chambers and therefore by implication, no six million number.


Is that supposed to be something to "deal with"? Even if Ehrenburg had actually told Burg what Burg claimed to have been told by Ehrenburg, the evidence to mass extermination by homicidal gassing at Auschwitz-Birkenau is such that one would have to reasonably conclude that Ehrenburg must have been delirious or out of his mind when "confessing" to Burg that he "didn't see proof of Auschwitz gas chambers", assuming that Ehrenburg was one who had investigated what evidence to mass gassings at Auschwitz-Birkenau was available to the Soviets. It is far likelier, however, that either Burg lied through his teeth or his fantasy-prone mind converted what he would have liked Ehrenburg to tell him into what Ehrenburg actually told him. Burg was certainly one to mistake his own wishful thinking and preconceived notions for reality, all the more so concerning a supposed event that – like Ehrenburg’s alleged "confession" – lay decades in the past.

Drew J
Roberto not only recycles his bottles, but also his repeatidly refuted argument about Burg.


What "repeatidly refuted" argument would that be, and where is one supposed to read Drew J's repeated refutations? Readers are welcome to try finding them in my blogs The Old Chimp and his Apprentice, So how did yelping cowards "Drew J" and Greg Gerdes react ... or Muehlenkamp-mania in the Cesspit, or in any of the RODOH posts linked to therein.

Drew J continues:
Roberto continues on me,

This particular fanatic's blockheaded belief system (or his utter lack of honesty) shows most prominently as Drew J proclaims that "archaeologists" went to Treblinka and found "no evidence of soil or ground disturbance". We know what "archaeologists" he is talking about: a "Revisionist" wacko by the name of Richard Krege, who never published a report about his alleged world-moving finds because – as suggested by the analysis of his scans by GPR expert Lawrence B. Conyers and others – he must have realized that he had come upon the very soil disturbances compatible with mass graves that he had hoped not to find. And what's especially funny is that Drew J supports his claim with a link to the laughably hysterical website of his fellow cretin Greg Gerdes' fraudulent "association", from where references to Mr. Krege’s "archaeological" exploits have interestingly been removed …

Too bad he isn't as thorough as he makes himself out to be or he would realize that me and many others began to remain skeptical of where that bloody scan came from in the first place and if it really came from Krege or not. So he is making a straw man against me when he says I believe that scan came from Krege. We have no idea if it did or not anymore. Many on this board are agnostics over it. Therefore, we couldn't possibly be suffering from the cognitive dissonance Roberto accuses us of in the following way: "the scan shows soil disturbance but there still was no holocaust."


"Revisionists" are a funny lot. "Revisionists" such as CODOH moderator Jonnie "Hannover" Hargis have for years paraded the scan in question as proof that Krege had found no soil disturbances compatible with mass graves at Treblinka. Now that the scan has been held by an expert in GPR matters to probably show the exact opposite of what Krege and his fellow true believers claimed it to show, some of those true believers beat a hasty retreat into lamely claiming that the provenance of the scan is uncertain. This is nothing other than the good old Plan A/Plan B scheme that "Revisionist" charlatans tend to apply in regard to German documents. Plan A: try to make believe that the document does not incriminate the Nazis and actually supports the "Revisionist" position. When Plan A fails because the document is clear evidence to mass murder, apply Plan B and yell "forgery, forgery". Pathetic.

If, by the way, Drew J had an "agnostic" approach to the provenance of the scan, then whence did he derive his high-handed claim that "archaeologists" went to Treblinka and found "no evidence of soil or ground disturbance"? Did he blindly believe the assertions of a fellow "Revisionist" without asking what evidence supported these assertions? Between that and having based his position on a GPR scan that turned out to show the opposite of what "Revisionists" claimed it to show, I don’t know which makes Drew J look sillier.

But Drew J’s squirming gets even funnier as he tries to open himself an outlet with the following question, apparently aware that he has nothing to show for his claim that the scan did not originate with Krege:

Drew J
Even if it did show soil disturbance, how does that prove pounds upon pounds of ashes? How many square feet or meters does that scan in question cover anyway?


Drew J is shifting the goalposts now. As nobody claimed that the scan proves the number, size and contents of the Treblinka mass graves all by itself (to that effect it is just one out of many parts of the puzzle, one that further corroborates what becomes apparent from eyewitness, documentary and other physical evidence to mass murder at Treblinka), it's a moot exercise to babble about what the scan alone does not show. The point is that this scan was paraded by "Revisionists" as evidence that there are no soil disturbances compatible with mass graves at Treblinka, and that all evidence pointing to the mass murder at Treblinka and the presence of related mass graves at that place must therefore be called in question. What the scan actually does, however, is to corroborate rather than contradict the eyewitness, documentary and other physical evidence pointing to the mass murder at Treblinka and the presence of related mass graves at that place. As such the scan is a shot in the foot of "Revisionism", and the true believers' laughable attempts to now distance themselves from this evidence by disputing its provenance only make them look even more ridiculous than they do anyway.

Drew J
Too many unanswered questions about that scan and its origins has resulted in me and many others adopting agnosticism about it, not blind adherence as Roberto portrays it to be.


Says the fellow who in an earlier post claimed that "archaeologists" went to Treblinka and found "no evidence of soil or ground disturbance". Who does he think he is fooling? He seems to have problems even fooling himself.

The CODOH thread New challenge & reward offered by the NAFH continues with more gibberish by Drew J and Gerdes, also in reaction to some acid remarks by "Wahrheit", a more intelligent "Revisionist" who seems to be not unreasonably concerned with the (further) damage that primitives like Drew J and Gerdes are doing to the image of "Revisionism". These posts may later be commented in the RODOH forum's Memory Hole section.

Reponse to Moranen the Moron

Last week a "Revisionist" from Finland, who calls himself Moranen and is apparently also a white supremacist or "white nationalist" with an aversion to "non-White immigrants", posted some moronic nonsense on the blogs Belzec Mass Graves and Archaeology: My Response to Carlo Mattogno (4,3) and Why the "diesel issue" is irrelevant, which was duly slapped around his ears.



Moranen thereupon retreated to his own blog, where on 01.08.2009 he posted produced a lengthy article with instructively idiotic title "Mr. Moranen vs. Mr. Muehlenkamp, the Mule (from Holocaust controversies blog) – On the Diesel issue and Belzec archeology, and the Holocaust in general (methods, evidence, etc.)". He did so without informing me, and I only learned of this article yesterday because a fellow poster on the RODOH forum called my attention to it.

About half an hour ago I finished posting my comments to Moronen's article on the blog on which it was written. However, that blog is set up in such a way that comments must be accepted by the owner before they appear, and I'm told that Mr. Moranen usually takes weeks to do that (he has to think of his reply) or sometimes just ignores the replies and never publishes them.

For this reason my comments to Moranen’s article are transcribed below, as they were posted on his blog.

Let’s see what happens.

Response to Moranen (1)

And as anyone can see, I beat the living hell out of believers, and caused them to lose their faith, even though they never admit this.

So, Mr. Moranen, what have we got here?

You continue our discussion on your own blog without letting me know (I just found out because someone told me) and then claim you won?

What a lying asshole you are, Mr. Moranen.

And what a whimpering coward.

So let’s what we got here, shall we? Italics for what you wrote, plain text for my comments.

“Mr. Moranen vs. Mr. Muehlenkamp, the Mule (from Holocaust controversies blog) – On the Diesel issue and Belzec archeology, and the Holocaust in general (methods, evidence, etc.)

1.8.2009

Recently I provoked some ‘conversation’ at Holocaust-controversies-blog (http://holocaustcontroversies.blogspot.com/2009/07/belzec-mass-graves-and-archaeology-my_23.html; http://holocaustcontroversies.blogspot.com/2006/06/why-diesel-issue-is-irrelevant.html). I started deceptively spewing out comments and arguments (with humor) that are easily debunked, in order to lure some of the believers into more ‘serious conversation’.”


Translation: Moranen ran away from the HC blog with his tail between his legs and now tries to cover up his blunder by claiming that he tried to lure his opponent into “more ‘serious conversation’”. Who does he think he is fooling?

Footnotes and source material is not included, because we both know and understand it to some degree.Here are the initial believer responses from Mr. Mule and me:

Moranen’s first attacks


Does the creep speak of himself in the third person?

Mr. Moranen:

So it seems.

Belzec archeology

[…]

Your audience is Jews, Kikes, other believers and others ideological allies who benefit from propaganda lies of WW2. But dont you worry, we real Europeans will make sure that Jews are punished as a whole for this hoax (even the unborn babies) and for their destructive control of the mass media of the West (which they use to destroy Europeans and European Civilization through multiculturalism). Yes indeed "this stranglehold has got be broken or" our civilization is going down the drain. And we will succeed when some of the 'survivor-liars' are still alive so we can really twist the knife in their wound. Our audience is White Europeans and especially Germans, yes those people whom are being manipulated into their demise partly by these propaganda lies of WW2.
Thank God for Germany at least trying to get rid off the Jewish influence and Jews during WW2. Thank God Germans at least prevented Stalins invasion of Europe 1941 just in time. Thank the Jews for helping to bring USA to WW2 to destroy Europeans and insure that the anti-European ideologies won the war, so that we are now being destroyed through multiculturalism.


The last two paragraphs were not included in Moranen’s first message on the thread in question, but even without them the fellow managed to show that he’s got manure where other people have brains.

Diesel issue

[…]

By the way, concerning the producer gas generators, I thought that Zyklon B could be used to kill people even though it was explosive, but the producer gas generators cant because it doesnt fit the "eyewitnesses"?


The last paragraph was not included in Moranen’s first message on the thread in question, which shows that the fellow is a liar.

RESPONSES

Diesel:

“Gassing with diesel engines, although claimed by some witnesses who must have mixed up the gassing engine with some other engine used for power generation or so, must be ruled out not because it would have been impossible to gas people with engine exhaust, but because those witnesses who either operated the gassing engines or were otherwise familiar with them, i.e. the ones one would expect to know what they were talking about, mentioned not diesel but gasoline engines as having been used for gassing. That's the point.”

Mr. Mule: The point was that the “eyewitness evidence” is very contradictory again.


No, it’s not. All eyewitnesses in the know said the same thing – gasoline.

Some claim diesel, others gasoline, no matter who should have known what or not.

Sorry, my dear moron, but outside your manure-filled brain it matters a lot whether of not a witness should have known what he was talking about. If someone who took a brief at the engine room when walking by thought that the gassing engine was a diesel engine, that’s one thing. If the guy who operated the type of engine didn’t get the type of engine right, that’s a wholly different situation. But wherever there are testimonies from gassing engine operators, they speak of gasoline and not of diesel engines.

And this diesel evidence was obviously convincing enough for the real “Holocaust scholars” who wrote it as “history”, so obviously the diesel witnesses had to enough in the know in order for the real “Holocaust scholars” to accept them.

Faulty reasoning, as was to be expected. Holocaust scholars simply didn’t care about this detail and thus took witnesses who spoke of diesel at face value. Why should they have cared? As all known evidence clearly points to mass murder and there’s not a shred of evidence pointing to any alternative scenario (although there should be plenty if such alternative scenario had occurred), a mistaken description of the type of engine exhaust used would be just that and in no way affect the reasonable conclusion that roughly 1.5 million people were murdered at the Aktion Reinhard(t) camps.

More importantly, based on these diesel witnesses whom the “Holocaust scholars” accepted, many people have been accused and sentenced in courts of “killing people”, especially Demjanjuk. “It’s irrelevant!”?

The most you can claim is that an eyewitness who got the type of engine wrong may also have got other details wrong and therefore can be relied upon only to the extent that his testimony is independently corroborated. But in what concerns the facts of massive deportation and mass murder as well as the killing and body disposal process, any eyewitness who made an understandable mistake as concerns the type of gassing engine is abundantly corroborated by other eyewitnesses including former SS-man standing trial, by documents, by demographic data and by physical evidence.

Response to Moranen (4)

You have to know how idiotic and hypocritical mules you sound when you try to desperately evade the issue and lie more by claiming: “It’s all irrelevant that many people were convicted of diesel lies, because the 1-2 million Jews were killed somehow, based on non-existent proof.

No, we know they were killed based on documentation showing that they were taken to certain places, the absence of any evidence whatsoever that they left these places alive, numerous testimonies with essentially coincident descriptions of the killing and body disposal process and the presence of huge mass graves or mass grave areas and large amounts of human remains, as described by criminal investigators or archaeologists, on the site of the former extermination camps.

If it wasn’t diesel, then it was gasoline!

Not only that, we positively know that it was gasoline because all eyewitnesses who knew what they were talking about – as opposed to non-technical casual observers, who may have been mistaken – spoke of a gasoline engine.

Gasoline witnesses must be right because diesel witnesses lied [“were mistaken”],

Exactly, they were mistaken. Why should they have lied? What difference would it make to an eyewitness whether the gassing engine was a diesel or a gasoline engine.

because we have no proof nor better evidence for gasoline [just the same ‘witness evidence’].

No, not the same witness evidence, but evidence from gassing engine operators, from mechanics and from other people who for some reason – e.g. because they brought up the fuel, like Reder at Belzec – had to know what they were talking about.

They have to have been killed because we assume it without proof, so nothing else matters.”

No, they have been killed because all known documentary, eyewitness and physical evidence points to their having been killed an no evidence whatsoever points to another scenario (the latter being especially telling insofar as another scenario should have left behind plenty of evidence – a huge paper trail and thousands upon thousands of eyewitnesses).

And let me guess, if the gasoline lie would be proven to be lie, you would just go back to steamings and electrocutions, “because obviously they were killed somehow!”?

I would very logically and reasonably conclude that they were killed by a method the details of which are not known. But don’t worry, that’s not going to happen. Gasoline engines was what the eyewitnesses in the know said it was, so it can have been nothing else.

[Posted on 05.08.2009 at 14:24 hours GMT]


Response to Moranen (5)

And of course nobody claimed the effective producer gas generators.

No, the effective producer gas generators carried the risk of the executioners gassing themselves or blowing themselves up, and it was also not economically sound to detach producer gas vehicles to extermination camps from the Eastern Front and replace them with gasoline vehicles there. Those gasoline vehicles would have spend a lot more fuel running on those lousy Russian roads than the gassing engines did at Belzec or Treblinka.

And of course no documentary evidence for the alleged ‘engine gas chambers’ as there definitely should be in this case in order to take these claims seriously.

Why, because Moranen so yells, or for any reason worth considering? There is no documentary evidence about the gassing engines and other camp infrastructure because all such documentary evidence was destroyed, as we know from Globocnik’s letter to Himmler of 5 January 1944. Care to explain why Globocnik thought it necessary to destroy all that documentation, Mr. Moranen? What was he trying to hide?

And no murder weapons nor bodies (at least some of them would have to have been autopsied), and no documentary evidence; no crime.

Again by Mr. Moranen’s irrelevant standards, I suppose. Criminal courts dealing with these matters, especially those of the German Federal Republic, obviously applied different standards. They considered it possible and legally sound to reconstruct the killing process on the basis of documentary evidence showing the deportation of hundreds of thousands to each of these camp and that they were final destinations and places were people were sent to be killed, and of depositions by eyewitnesses and accused perpetrators describing the killing and body disposal process. Physical traces of or documentation about the murder weapons were not considered necessary. And I don’t think Mr. Moranen can demonstrate that any of these courts violated the applicable rules of criminal procedure by basing its findings of fact on the evidence they were based on.

I might add that the exposed and sinking Auschwitz lie also automatically drags down all the rest gassing propaganda lies with it.

What “sinking Auschwitz lie”, Mr. Moranen? Are you hallucinating? Or are you trying to convince yourself of something you don’t really believe in?

Are you next going to demand that historians should be allowed to act in courts as judges and prosecutors to judge the guilty based on contradictory “eyewitness evidence”, without bodies, murder weapons and documents?

No, I’m waiting for the bigmouth to show me what’s supposed to be wrong with judges and prosecutors basing their findings of fact about the killing and body disposal process at the Nazi extermination camps on eyewitness testimonies alone. Any rules or standards of evidence of any country you can show us that would be violated thereby? I don’t think so, but please give it a try.

Ah, and I understand the “without documents” thing as referring to documentation about the gassing devices alone. As concerns deportations to the extermination camps and the nature of the same, documentation exists and is quite telling.

[Posted on 05.08.2009 at 14:26 hours GMT]

Response to Moranen (6)

“Well obviously this person is guilty because some people were indeed deported during war, and some people claimed they were gassed.”

No, mass murder happened because lots of people were deported to places they are not known to have ever left alive, and because all eyewitnesses – including the defendants on trial before West German and other courts – described mass killing and body disposal, not a single one of them – including the defendants on trial before West German and other courts – claimed anything else. And the fact that mass murder happened only means that “this person is guilty” to the extent that specific individual actions committed by this person can be proven through eyewitness and/or other evidence.

Don’t you think you might ensure countless miscarriages of justice by this irresponsible nonsense?

I don’t think the bigmouth can demonstrate a single miscarriage of justice by a court of the German Federal Republic at an NS-crimes trial. If anything, these courts can be accused of having been excessively careful in their assessment of evidence, too quick to apply the in dubio pro reo principle and often too lenient in establishing sentences (though there were also a number of well-deserved lifetime sentences in Germany, in case the big-mouth would like to claim that defendants cut a deal).

If I remember correctly you claimed they would not have used producers because of the explosive danger. OK, then they should not have used Zyklon B either because it is in 6-41% vol explosive!

You don’t need a 6-41 % to kill people, do you? On the other hand, producer gas vehicle drivers were warned about leaks because the gas was so toxic and explosive that even a small quantity leaking out of the generator could already be dangerous, IIRC. Nice try, but no banana.

Next you object, “no it’s not as explosive!” => it IS explosive nonetheless, so the explosive danger exists!

The issue here would be the chance of the users being exposed to concentrations carrying the danger of intoxication or explosion, which was considerable with producer gas but not with Zyklon B. And even if that were not so, what would it matter? It would only mean that using gasoline instead of producer gas was not the best decision, a mistake. So what? People make mistakes all the time and have done so throughout history. Even your SS heroes were only error-prone human beings, my friend.

And if we now move to the area of what should or shouldn’t have been used, then they definitely SHOULD have used cremation ovens to incinerate the bodies in Aktion Reinhard camps!

I don’t think that would have been a practical solution, actually. The 46 ovens of Birkenau could only burn about 3,000 bodies a day, and at Treblinka they had up to 15,000 bodies per day at peak times, according to Suchomel. Half a dozen huge grids made of railway rails over pits containing wood drenched with gasoline were a much better solution under such conditions. But let’s assume that the moron’s heroes actually did not apply what would have been the best solution under the circumstances: what would this mean? That people make mistakes. That people fuck up sometimes, as they have done throughout human history. Nothing more, and nothing less.

But no no... because these are all just propaganda lies.

That would be a non-sequitur argument even if your heroes should have done what you think they should have, as explained above.

Response to Moranen (7)

And what’s the point in gassing people, when you could have simply deported them into big hidden fields with electrified barbed wire fences and put few companies to guard them and let them starve there days or few weeks, and then burn them in big industrial cremation ovens built nearby..

Well, it’s faster, requires less personnel and is more “humane”. Three factors in favor of gassing. And have you already thought how big an enclosure to be surrounded by electrified wire would have to be to kill hundreds of thousands of people therein over a period of just a few months, and how much electricity would be required, etc.?

Ah, and why didn’t them “Jewish Bolsheviks” apply your method instead of bumping off hundreds of thousands of people at places like Kuropaty and Bykivnia? Must be propaganda too, in your sparrow brain …

Belzec archeology:

I)

“You're obviously projecting your own fallacies, my friend. As to my motivation, it's a deep aversion to the offensive lies and nonsense disseminated by trash like you.”

Well well, we actually have sparked some ‘conversation’ here, thanks to my provocations.

Mr. Mule, the “lies and nonsense” ARE the WW2 gassing propaganda lies! My motivation too is to expose the propaganda lies of WW2 = The Jewish “Gas Chamber Genocide” lies. I too have a deep aversion to those offensive WW2 lies and nonsense disseminated by the Jewish-controlled mass media of the West (e.g. MacDonald 1998/2002, http://www.kevinmacdonald.net/books-Preface.html#Media), which are used to brainwash and manipulate Europeans to “less anti-Semitic and less xenophobic” = to allow non-White mass immigration into European countries to destroy them by making poor Europeans minorities everywhere (in USA 2042, in Europe ~2100). And yes, it is the Jews / the organized Jewry and their influence as a whole, who are responsible for this propaganda campaign.


Blah, blah, blah. So the moron has a problem with “non-Whites” and therefore feels in need to ramble against «Jewish “Gas Chamber Genocide” lies». I could have guessed.

So should we forgive and forget them, and allow them to do this over and over again, just like they treat us, right? Or was it “never forget, never forgive, never again”, hmm...

So the moron lives in a paranoid cloud-cuckoo-land where Jews do him wrong. I had figured that out already

Oh, another moron pathetically obsessed with Jews. The handle suggests li'l Tommy Moran, arguably one of the dumbest creatures on the planet. :-)

No. I’m actually Hitler. I am living still. I’ll be back again, and again and again... Well obviously there is some emotional connection to you for these propaganda lies. Jew-connection seemed plausible. Whatever. If the Jews own the mass media of the West, and use it to destroy the Western Civilization and Europeans with multiculturalism and guilt mongering (including the Holocaust lies), then yes I think a little obsession is good. Like this: http://reasonradionetwork.com/?cat=8


So the moron has lots of loose screws among the manure inside his skull. That’s no surprise.

Response to Moranen (8)

“By the moron's standards of what is "convincing"? I can live with that.”

Proper evidence is convincing.


Yep, like the evidence that convinced historians and courts of a constitutional state like the German Federal Republic.

You should already know what is convincing anyway. Murder weapons and some bodies:

Any rules or standards of evidence you can show us (other than your irrelevant own) whereby “murder weapons and some bodies” are a must to sustain a conviction for mass murder, whereby such conviction cannot be based on documentary and eyewitness evidence alone? I’m waiting.

Auschwitz “homicidal gas chambers” have to have as much ferrocyanide residues as the disinfestation gas chambers,

I don’t see why, but actually they do if have more or less the same concentration if you consider samples without Prussian Blue alone (which is the correct comparison).

clear 4 square holes in the roof of Krema 2 (Keren et al proved nothing and could have named 8 ‘holes’ just like Provan 1996),

No, the holes they identified can only have been the Zyklon B introduction holes, however much you holler. But why the heck (according to what rules or standards other than your irrelevant own) would those holes have to be physically identified at all? Documentary and eyewitness evidence left no room for reasonable doubt about their existence even before Keren et al published the results of their investigation.

few autopsies concluding a gassing death with Zyklon B or carbon monoxide;

I didn’t know there were any such autopsies actually. Well, maybe some by Soviet investigating commissions related to killings in gas vans. But again, why are any needed to sustain a reasonable conclusion about mass murder by gassing?

and thoroughly excavated mass graves at Aktion Reinhard camps.

Those graves excavated or investigated by core drilling, thoroughly enough to establish the size of the mass graves or the mass graves area and that the mass graves contained large amounts of cremation remains and some even a considerable number of whole bodies. The size of the mass graves thus established is compatible with the scale of mass murder that can be estimated on the basis of documentary evidence. So what more is needed? What would be a thorough excavation for you? And why are you asking for one, except because you know or think that it hasn’t yet been done?

[Posted on 05.08.2009 at 14:30 hours GMT]


Response to Moranen (9)

Documentary evidence: Documents about Execution Gas Chambers (with Zyklon or Carbon monoxide)

Like these?

"Vergasungsapparate" - "Gassing Devices"

"...special vans...or other remedies..."

"...a 'Delousing Van'...": Euphemism for Murder

"...ninety-seven thousand have been processed..."

"Bathing Installations for Special Action"

"Material for Special Treatment"

Diary of Johann Paul Kremer

80,000 Cremation Capacity Per Month Not Sufficient for Auschwitz - New Document

"Cremation with simultaneous Special Treatment"

"Vergasungskeller"

"Four wire-mesh introduction devices,
four wooden covers"


"14 Showerheads, 1 gas-tight door".

and documents about gassed victims;

You mean documents about people dispatched to final destinations where – as sometimes becomes apparent from the documents themselves – they were supposed to die and where – as we know from other evidence – death was brought about by gassing?

If so, I suggest Höfle’s report to Heim of 11 January 1943, the Korherr Report and documents mentioned in Prof. Browning’s expert report for the Irving-Lipstadt trial and/or in section 5 (continuation) of my Mattogno riposte, among others.

Response to Moranen (10)

Clear plans about executing Jews with gas with figures (e.g. “we have now gassed 1,000,000 here in Auschwitz”, or “today we gassed 2,666 Jews”, etc.).

Documents mentioning that so-and-so many Jews were killed or subject to “special treatment” I can show you plenty of, but they don’t necessarily mention the killing method. Why do you want to see documents expressly mention the killing method? I mean, other than because you expect them not to exist.

And if there would have to have been trials to prosecute the losers of WW2, then they would have to have been honest trials, in which the alleged crimes had to be proven with normal procedures (murder weapons and bodies), not the arbitrary post-war show trials (based on indisputable “self-evident facts”, hearsay and propaganda).

I’m looking forward to your demonstration that a) proof of murder requires “murder weapons and bodies” under any procedural rules or rules of evidence you know of and b) the Nuremberg trials and the many NS murder trials before West German courts were what you call them. Here are two articles showing that you don’t know what you’re talking about:

Some misconceptions related to the Nuremberg trials …

Jürgen Graf on Criminal Justice and Nazi Crimes

More Fun With Ugly Voice Productions (Part 1)

If you haven’t proven the “gassing crimes” with some of the dead bodies (autopsies) and some of the murder weapons (e.g. expert reports proving as much ferrocyanide residues in Auschwitz ‘homicidal gas chambers’ [blue or colorless] as in the disinfestation gas chambers and documents about execution gas chambers would be further proof too); then there is no proven crime.

Reports like A Study of the Cyanide Compounds Content In The Walls Of The Gas Chambers in the Former Auschwitz and Birkenau Concentration Camps, by Jan Markiewicz, Wojciech Gubala, Jerzy Labedz Institute of Forensic Research, Cracow? Not that I think they are necessary, you see. Neither are your “autopsies”. Historians and the criminal justice authorities of a constitutional state agree with me, and there’s nothing you can show to be unreasonable about their position.

Therefore you have no basis to discriminate between the various contradictory eyewitnesses.

What “various contradictory witnesses” exactly and in what exactly do they “contradict” each other, first of all?

Second, what makes you think that prosecutors or judges need your autopsies and reports to establish an eyewitness’s credibility?

If you prefer the gasoline method – without proving the “gassing crime” with aforementioned evidence – then we real people can as well prefer the diesel method, and again refer to the real “holocaust scholars” who support this and wrote it as “history”.

No, the converging independent testimonies of knowledgeable eyewitnesses are sufficient evidence to homicidal gassing with gasoline exhaust by reasonable standards of evidence (as opposed to the standards of illogical blabbermouths who idiotically claim to be the only “real people” around, as becomes hopeless lunatics).

[Posted on 05.08.2009 at 14:35 hours GMT]

Response to Moranen (11)

Or we might even prefer the steamings and other nonsense, which real “holocaust scholars” do not support, because those too are based on the same “eyewitness evidence” (plus the convergence of saunas) => this varying unproven foundation allows multiple interpretations.

Dead wrong, bigmouth. “Steamings and other nonsense” are based on the mistaken observations of outsiders or simply on rumors, not on the testimonies of eyewitnesses who can be expected to have known what they were talking about.

This strict evidence and the courts’ hierarchy of evidence has to be applied only to Jews’ alleged Holocaust genocide (not to others), because:

What “courts’ hierarchy of evidence”, bigmouth?

Quote procedural rules that establish such “hierarchy”, please. Or cut the crap.

1) we are dealing with an alleged precise murder in the scale of people

What that supposed to mean?

(therefore courts’ murder investigation method applies);

They have been applied at (among others) hundreds of NS-crimes trials before Federal German courts, wise guy. Time for you to wake up.

2) Holocaust claims are full of lies, contradictions, exaggerations, rumors and nonsense;

No more and no less so than claims about other mass crimes or catastrophic events, and the wheat has been sifted from the chaff in the meantime.

3) because eyewitness evidence is very unreliable;

It must be used with caution but is still a mainstay of criminal investigation and historical research, be it in regard to the Nazi genocide of the Jews or in regard to any other event or phenomenon.

4) the Holocaust story got started from unreliable propaganda sources;

Such as? Actually the “Holocaust story” got started from underground reports, eyewitness testimonies, interrogations of perpetrators, documents made by the perpetrators themselves and demographic data.

5) the figure of 6 million, and 5-6 million, was already claimed many times during and right after WW1, which implies the mythical nonsense nature of the 6 figure (seriously casting doubt on the 5-6 million WW2 Holocaust);

Horseshit. Some Jewish papers wrote something about 6 million Jews threatened by starvation in Europe after World War I, that’s all. If the order of magnitude then claimed happens to more or less coincide with the sum of demographic losses established country-by-country after the Second World War, that’s a mere and irrelevant coincidence.

6) many of the Holocaust claims are admittedly false by Holocaust experts admissions (gassings in Dachau, Buchenwald, Bergen-Belsen, and the “wrong” murder methods, etc.);

Sifting the wheat from the chaff is part of historical research in what concerns the Holocaust as it is regarding any other event or set of events. Ever heard about all those Dresden myths mentioned in section 5.2 of my Mattogno riposte, or about the thousands of phony American Vietnam veterans telling Rambo tales in bars on a Saturday night? Are either a reason to doubt the historical record of the Dresden bombing or the American war in Vietnam?

[Posted on 05.08.2009 at 14:38 hours GMT]


Response to Moranen (12)

7) and because of the propagandistic nature of the whole Holocaust subject, because it is being used as an ideological weapon for the benefit of the Jews, very much in the Jewish-controlled mass media, and because very little critical research is allowed (“denial”) with the threat of imprisonment in many European countries which implies already that the whole story is rotten.

Whatever political or economic benefit some organizations may derive from the Holocaust doesn’t change the fact that it has been investigated more thoroughly, by both criminal investigators and historians, than any other case of large-scale mass murder in history (if you disagree, feel free to go fishing for examples of mass murders that have been historically reconstructed on the basis of more and/or “better” evidence). Critical research is what historians do, and nobody has anything against it. What creeps like you do, on the other hand, is not critical research. It is the highly uncritical attempt of ideologically motivated fanatics to vindicate their articles of faith. Not that I think you people should be imprisoned for that, but calling your mendacious imbecility “critical research” is just laughable. And no, prohibition of “Revisionism” in some countries doesn’t imply what you would like to believe it implies. It only means that some states are concerned with disturbances of the public order that may result from or be incremented by the effect of “Revisionist” propaganda on frustrated losers like yourself, or see “Revisionism” as the binding kit between otherwise disparaged right-wing extremist groups and fight it for this reason – with what I consider to be the wrong means.

And yes, only the alleged Jewish “Gas Chamber Genocide” has to be proven this strictly, because it is claimed to be so unique and precise mass murder;

And why would standards of evidence for proving an event depend on what significance whosoever is supposed to attach to that event rather than on what is logically required to prove that event beyond a reasonable doubt, Mr. Moron?

Holocaust is claimed to be a specific mass murder which definitely should left behind the proper evidence required evidence, had it happened as claimed (murder weapons and some of the bodies plus the known locations of the huge mass graves).

The locations of the mass graves are mostly known, and there’s no reason why the killers should have left the murder weapons behind where they had all the time in the world to destroy or dismantle them and remove them from the site, as in the case of the Aktion Reinhard(t) camps. You’re making no sense, boy.

Other genocides were not attempts to kill ALL of certain peoples with specific weapons of mass destruction of which many are still known to be intact today to be found and analyzed.

What makes genocide is an attempt to wholly or partially destroy a certain ethnic or religious group, the particular methods applied being a secondary issue. And where are we supposed to find intact gas chambers, gas vans or gassing engines these days? These were by no means the only killing methods, by the way; 2.4 out of 5.1 million Jews killed by the Nazis, according to Hilberg, succumbed to privation in ghettos and camps or to mass shooting rather than to dedicated extermination installations. I’d say the Rwanda genocide of 1994, which was almost wholly carried out with machetes, matches your requirements a lot better. And I’m sure that Rwanda is still full of machetes “intact today to be found and analyzed”. So what?

So this unique case definitely has to be proven strictly with murder weapons and some of the bodies, and the hierarchy of evidence applies.

A non sequitur argument, and there’s no such thing as your “hierarchy of evidence” outside your imagination, my friend.

Otherwise there is no “gassing crime” and anyone can believe or theorize or disbelieve whatever they want.

You don’t get to make the rules of evidence here, bigmouth. You have to apply those that are applied by the pertinent disciplines (criminal investigation and historical research), which don’t provide for the “hierarchy” you are babbling about.

(And no, we righteous revisionist darlings don’t have to prove anything this carefully, since we are not accusing anyone of murder; we can just prove our case with normal historian’s methods.)

No, you’re just claiming the most improbable and gigantic hoax in history by the most gigantic and improbable conspiracy of all times, and you haven’t provide a shred of evidence that would even hint to the existence of either. And there are no different standards of proof for this and that in historiography. The same standards of evidence apply to all historical events and to all theses regarding such events. The thesis of “Revisionist” loonies being that, among other things, the Aktion Reinhard(t) camps were transit camps en route to the “Russian East”, these buggers should be able to show at least some of the abundant documentary and eyewitness evidence that would exist if such “transit” had taken place. But they haven’t yet shown anything, the poor jerks. And as they are true believers irrationally clinging to a quasi-religious faith, that doesn’t even make them consider the possibility that their theses are a sack full of cattle manure.

This would be convincing.

To you perhaps, and that only until the day the kind of evidence you baselessly proclaim to be necessary is rubbed under your nose. As soon as that happens, you will shift the goalposts and proclaim even higher standards. Who do you think you’re fooling?

“No they don't. No insider witnesses familiar with the killing process and related devices mentioned anything other than gassing with engine exhaust. And witnesses in the know are the ones that count for this purpose. The others may be further evidence to the fact of mass murder, but were obviously mistaken as concerns the methodology.”

No no. All witnesses are equal, at least all of the prisoners in the camps.


Nonsense. There are witnesses who are better observers than others, and there are witnesses closer to and with better opportunities to observe the events or circumstances in question.

Of course they would have known what the murder methods were in so small camps, so they all were in the know, and therefore the real official “holocaust scholars” accepted the diesel method.

More nonsense. All or most witnesses may have known that the killing was done with engine exhaust or at least that it involved the use of an engine, but only very few witnesses could get close enough to the engine room and the gassing engine to establish what type of engine was being used and how the exhaust gas was led into the chambers. Most inmates in other parts of each camp were never allowed access to the killing sector and thus depended for their knowledge on what they were told by the Ukrainian guards, who were also not necessarily familiar with all details of the gassing process.

Witnesses could not have be mistaken about the murder methods, had there been gassings.

That applies only to those witnesses who either operated the murder methods or otherwise had first-hand knowledge of them, because they had helped to install the engines or maintained them or brought up the gasoline for them. Those witnesses were a minority in each camp, and all of these insider witnesses mentioned a gasoline engine.

I might add that the earlier reports and descriptions might be even more equal than the later ones, especially the steamings are more equal (more correct), due to the unreliability of human memories.

No, the steaming account obviously came from a far-away observer who must have mistaken for steam the exhaust coming out of the opened gas chambers on a cold day, or steam brought about by the difference between the bodies’ temperature and a cold outside temperature. And it bore no resemblance to the actual killing method, whereas the witnesses who mentioned gassing with engine exhaust were at least correct in that exhaust from an engine was the killing agent.

And we have a real juicy convergence of evidence for steamings, because Germans had many Saunas in their camps (which probably got the whole steam myth started as the disinfestation gas chambers started the myth/lie about the ‘homicidal gas chambers’).

There were no saunas at the Aktion Reinhard(t) camps, bigmouth. Do something about your ignorance. And I strongly doubt that you can demonstrate a connection between the disinfestations gas chamber at Birkenau and the homicidal gas chambers, which were located in different buildings at different places of the camp.

And steam chamber story was even supported at the Nuremberg trial! Case closed. They were steamed..

Just because an exhibit mention steaming was introduced at the trial, this doesn’t mean that the tribunal concluded on steaming. And actually there’s nothing about steaming at Treblinka in the IMT’s judgment. They mention gassing there. See my article Some misconceptions related to the Nuremberg trials …

(Oh my God, I have a Sauna in my home, in the next room! I confess, it was really me all along who steamed those millions of poor Jews to death, I even use it nowdays to steam Jews regularly; damn, it’s very ineffective.)

Don’t try to be funny, moron. You have no sense of humor and only succeed in further exposing your imbecility.

Response to Moranen (15)

The point: The camps were so small that all the “witnesses” were in the know so they could not have be mistaken about the murder methods.

No, most witnesses never had a chance to take a closer look at the gas chambers and gassing engines, which were located in segregated parts of each camp. Do something about.

They would not have to have been using some engines to know that they were murder weapons, because they would have

What’s that supposed to mean?

Therefore, in Reinhard camps the Jews were steamed, electrocuted, ‘vacuumed’, shot and gassed.

No, they were either shot or gassed with gasoline exhaust. Some far-away observers mistakenly assumed that the gassing victims were “steamed”. Others, who only saw people walking into a building and being removed as corpses, wrongly speculated that the people were being “electrocuted” therein. One witness who realized that an engine was involved in the process nevertheless misunderstood the mechanism and assumed that the engine was being used to drag air out of the chamber instead of leading exhaust inside. Still others correctly observed that exhaust was being led into the chambers, but wrongly assumed that it was from a diesel engine actually used for other, non-homicidal purpose. And then there were the operators and those who serviced the gassing engine, who knew not only that the killing agent was exhaust, but also that the exhaust came from a gasoline engine.

Denying any of these truths is denial claiming to be “revisionism”.

No, concluding that gassing with gasoline exhaust was the method and descriptions of electrocution, steaming or diesel gassing are mistaken is revisionism in the proper sense of the term.

Witnesses cannot be wrong in some of their claims (about steamings, electrocutions, vacuumings), because therefore they could also be wrong about gasoline engines (and everything else too).

First of all, the witnesses who spoke about “steamings, electrocutions, vacuumings” were not the witnesses who spoke about gasoline engines, of course. Any witnesses for steaming and electrocutions you can name, by the way?

Second, witnesses who made mistakes in their descriptions of the gassing process were not necessarily mistaken about everything else they described, and insofar as their descriptions are born out by those of other witnesses independent of them including SS defendants, it is actually rather unlikely that they were mistaken. The technical specifics of the gassing process were something that witnesses without a close connection to the process could easily be mistaken about, especially if they were non-technical people, without that meaning that these witnesses were necessarily unreliable.

You have to believe it ALL, or else it falls apart (just like religion).

No, you can sift the wheat from the chaff, which is what historians and criminal investigators do in regard to these events as in regard to any other crimes or other historical events. The religion here is “Revisionist” BS. “Revisionist” true believers have to postulate that all witnesses lied from A to Z or were out of their minds, and that all other incriminating evidence is inconclusive or fake. If they were to admit that one witness provided a truthful account of homicidal gassing, their whole cloud-cuckoo-land of propagandistic manure would come tumbling down.

Response to Moranen (16)

And again the “gassing crimes” haven’t been proven so there is no basis to discriminate between them.

You’re desperately trying to convince yourself of something you badly want to believe but don’t really believe, aren’t you? At least that’s what you sound like.

To the unbelievers (evil deniers / “revisionists”) this clinging on to gasoline engine method is like trying to fish good fish from a polluted pond (= they are all the same propaganda lies).

To reasonable people, on the other hand, it is revisionism in the proper sense of the term. And I’m always amused when fanatical true believers like yourself call themselves “unbelievers”. But then you loonies got it all upside down, right?

“I don't know what "etc." you are talking about, but "geysirs of blood" have also been observed at burial places of diseased slaughtered carcasses, IIRC. And the phenomenon of something looking like blood being projected to the surface by gasses forming inside the body during decomposition is a physically realistic possibility.”

“mass graves expelling geysers of blood;[359] […]

Yes, everyone can believe what they want.


Yeah, you’re sure to believe all the bullshit you have been producing. Just don’t expect any reasonable person to look on you as anything other than a hopeless moron. As to the “geysers of blood”, read Sergey Romanov’s article That's why it is denial, not revisionism. Part IV: Deniers and Babiy Yar massacre (2), from which I quote:

«Given that the ravine cut through aquifers, presumably it wouldn't be surprising that liquids from the corpses would appear elsewhere.

But would they spurt like geysers above the graves? Well, "geyser" is probably a wrong word to use here. But consider this report, "1,500 sheep to be dug up as body fluid leaks" (emphasis mine):

THE carcasses of 1,500 sheep slaughtered five weeks ago because they were infected with foot and mouth are to be dug up and burned by Maff after blood was found bubbling up from the ground.

[...]

It follows the discovery a week ago that 15,000 sheep buried on the Army firing ranges at Epynt, mid-Wales, were leaking body fluids into the water table and would have to be dug up and burned. Richard Tutton, who farms at Buttington Hall, said: "They were buried five weeks ago. The pit was very tidy, efficient and deep.

"We have had horrendous rain since then. Water has got in beneath and it was sort of bubbling up. It has not reached the river or anything. They are catching it before anything happens."

That's 1500 sheep. Now imagine what would happen with 34,000 corpses in the Indian summer of 1941.»

“And why dont you also believe in >the propaganda lies of WW1?”
→ “Because they were exposed as lies by subsequent research and the admissions of wartime propagandists, moron. Don't you ever think before writing?”

As if you didn’t get the point...


I still have to see you making a point, bigmouth.

Assuming WW1 propaganda lies would not be admittedly propaganda lies:

… there would still be historical research showing that they don’t fit into the overall historical context made up by lots of evidence contradicting them.

How well were WW1 propaganda lies proven to be propaganda lies? I’ve read Arthur Ponsonby’s book (1928). Ponsonby had no material nor physical evidence to prove his “revisionist bs”. Ponsonby did not prove nor even explain(!) what exactly happened to ALL of those Canadians, other soldiers, nurses and civilians, and to those 700,000 gassed and bayoneted civilians in 1916, (“poor, innocent, inoffensive, blameless, high-minded, talented, violin-playing civilians and soldiers... murdered by the wicked Germans”). Ponsonby did not even have any evidence to refute the awful corpse factories that manufactured soap and raw materials out of dead bodies. There would have been a good convergence of evidence for the corpse factories: There definitely were documents to prove the existence of factories, and because there is eyewitness evidence about some of the factories manufacturing war-time raw materials out of dead bodies, this of course means that the corpse factories were true. The eyewitnesses proved it so! The story about the gassing 700,000 also holds true: There was gas being used during WW1 and the eyewitnesses claimed that 700,000 were gassed, so of course they were!

I don’t think there were many direct (and for some reason mistaken) eyewitnesses rather than many who heard, believed and passed on stories that spread like rumor always does, growing as it goes along (the Germans did commit atrocities against Belgian civilians, but the order of magnitude was in the thousands rather than the hundreds of thousands – that was what started the rumors). If there’s documentary evidence, I’m sure it can be explained as pertaining to something innocuous that could be and was misinterpreted as something sinister. And I don’t think there is such a thing as documentation or demographic data pointing to hundreds of thousands of victims of German atrocities in World War I, or any corroborating physical evidence, or any depositions in court by people accused of having participated in mass killing, or any eyewitness testimonies that stood up to hostile cross-examination in the courtroom. Regarding the crimes of your Nazi heroes, there’s plenty of all that. So you’re comparing apples with oranges here, my fiend.

[Posted on 05.08.2009 at 14:54 hours GMT]


Response to Moranen (18)

Surely the numerous witnesses about WW1 atrocities (propaganda lies) cannot all be wrong?

No, not all accounts of World War I atrocities are propaganda lies. The Germans shot or hanged thousands of civilians in Belgian and northern France, and on the Eastern Front the civilian population was also not treated with kid gloves. But there were no gassings or corpse factories, and the order of magnitude of the killing was thousands and not hundreds of thousands.

What are you suggesting, that they actually could have lied?

I’m suggesting that there were few if any direct witnesses to gassing or corpse factories, that those who claimed to have seen such things were understandably mistaken, that their accounts were blown up by the rumor mill and that propagandists took advantage of that rumor mill, where they are not known to have invented things right away.

I feel a deep aversion to the offensive lies and nonsense disseminated by trash like you, that WW1 atrocities would have been “lies”. Witnesses never lie.

They sometimes do, but lies usually don’t have a long life.

Obviously the propagandists lied, those who claimed they made up the “stories”, which obviously were true!

That’s not what is suggested by postwar admissions and historical research (as opposed to “Revisionist” propaganda), sorry.

On the other hand, we have plenty of material evidence and documentary evidence that contradicts the WW2 propaganda lies (many scientific forensic reports refuting the alleged murder weapons and plenty of scientific research about the capacity of ovens, and many documents about the real conditions of the camps),

No, we haven’t. What we have is lots of puny attempts by charlatans like yourself to sell ideologically motivated pseudo-scientific nonsense dressed up as “scientific forensic reports” or “scientific research”. All of that shit is exposed as what it is as soon as someone takes a closer look at it.

not to mention the tremendous lack of evidence (no documents about execution gas chambers or gassed victims) and the WW2 lies are simply nonsensical and unconvincing.

Your standards of what is “simply nonsensical and unconvincing” are as irrelevant as a pig’s fart, my friend.

As to documents about execution gas chambers or gassed victims, see what I wrote above.

[Posted on 05.08.2009 at 14:55 hours GMT]

Response to Moranen (19)

And I’ll tell you where we have a tremendous lack of evidence even though evidence should be plentiful. This is from section 5.2 of my Mattogno riposte:

«Mattogno expressly mentions in his response:
If there were documents on "at least 434,000 Jews" being transported from Bełżec "to the east", the controversy which has caused me to write my study would not exist: Bełżec would unquestionably be considered nothing more than a transit camp. But since no such documents can be found, the six pages devoted to this issue are a lot already.

No such documents can be found. This is quite a significant statement. For there is no reason whatsoever why there should not be a lot of documentation about transportation from Belzec "transit camp" to the East if such transportation had taken place, both in related railway records and other documentation pertaining to the organization and execution of the transports but also in the largely recovered files of the civilian and military administrations of the occupied eastern territories, who would have had to deal with these hundreds of thousands of resettled Jews. While it is understandable that the Nazis would destroy incriminating documents related to a mass murder operation, there is no reason whatsoever why they should have destroyed documentation about resettlement via transit camps to the occupied Soviet territories. On the contrary: not only could such documentation have been paraded as a means to counter wartime reports that the Nazis were massacring the Jews ("hey look here, we're not killing them but just deporting them to the Russian East"), but every official big and small who was involved in Aktion Reinhard(t) would have had a vital interest in preserving these documents in order to invoke them in his defense in case of being accused of war crimes. After Stalingrad at the latest the hypothesis of Germany losing the war had to be taken into consideration, and as early as February 1943, following the Casablanca Conference announcement of "punishment and retribution in full" upon Nazi Germany's "guilty, barbaric leaders" [386], officials involved in measures against the Jews had to count on being held to account as war criminals. Later in the same year, the Moscow Conference's "Statement on Atrocities" made it clear beyond doubt what the Allies' policy regarding prosecution of and punishment for Nazi atrocities was, and that "all officers and men and members of the Nazi party" (not just the top leaders) would be held accountable for crimes they had been involved in[387]. Under these conditions, the organizers and executors of Aktion Reinhard(t), from Himmler, Globocnik and Höfle down to the staff manning the supposed "transit camps", would have been suicidal masochists if they had destroyed documentation proving that they had been involved in mass deportation but not mass murder, documentation that was their life insurance. Yet no such documentation exists, as big "Revisionist" guru Mattogno (who, I am sure, has spent more time and effort than anyone else trying to find such documentation) has just confirmed. That alone should be enough to make Mattogno realize and admit how worthless all his theories and hypotheses are, if he had the common sense and intellectual honesty that should be expected from who calls himself a historian. He obviously has not.»

There’s your tremendous lack of evidence, Mr. Moranen.

Response to Moranen (20)

There is much much more evidence to disprove WW2 propaganda lies, than of WW1 lies..

No there isn’t, already because what you would like to be “propaganda lies” are indisputable facts proven by a wealth of eyewitness, documentary, demographic and physical evidence, assessed by historians and by criminal justice authorities over more than six decades.

“Whether or not people were ever actually packed into a gas chamber this tightly I don't know”

Ok.


II)


“If its mathematically possible, >then you must believe it, right?”
→ “No, because it is contradicted by a wealth of other evidence whereby the death toll of Nazi concentration and extermination camps was more like 3-4 million. You should really consider thinking a little before shooting the bull.”

And so are the 3-4 million figures contradicted by wealth of evidence and you still believe in them (not to mention the lack of evidence and the unreliable nature of the “eyewitness evidence”).


What, have you found evidence whereby the deported who disappeared at Chelmno, Belzec, Sobibor, Treblinka, Auschwitz-Birkenau and Majdanek went on from there to final destinations in the “Russian East”? Let’s see that evidence then, bigmouth. Why have you held it back all this time? Put it on the table, it will make you a “Revisionist” hero.

As to the «lack of evidence and the unreliable nature of the “eyewitness evidence”» bullshit, here’s a challenge for you: list ten mass killing programs in history that you accept as having claimed hundreds of thousands of victims, and explain why the evidence to those mass killings convinces you whereas the eyewitness, documentary, physical and demographic evidence to your Nazi heroes’ mass killings does not. I’m waiting.

“I mean, denying this incredible >truth and claiming to be a >"revisionist" must be very stupid >and evil lying.”
→ “I don't know what you're talking about, but you come across as very stupid indeed.”

No, you just pretend you don’t. If we real people deny the “Gas Chamber Genocide” in Poland, ‘proven’ by “eyewitnesses” and nothing else, then we are deniers.


The “nothing else” thing is the first lie that shows you “real people” to be the lying loony trash you actually are. And as you have such an aversion to eyewitnesses, here are two questions I would like you to answer:

1. Do you accept it as a fact that Soviet troops killed tens of thousands of German civilians during the Red Army’s invasion of Germany in 1944/45?

2. If so, what evidence other than eyewitness accounts is your acceptance of this fact based on?

When you have answered these questions, we’ll move on to other examples.

Response to Moranen (21)

So by the same logic, if you deny the other killing methods proven by eyewitnesses and if you deny the bigger death tolls (proven by “eyewitnesses” or propaganda) without proving exactly what happened to those 25 million people or to those steamed/electrocuted/vacuumed/gassed people. (If you just deny these truths, without proving and explaining everything precisely, then your other propaganda lies lose credibility.)

Your logic sucks, my friend. The “other killing methods” and “bigger death tolls” are proven wrong by better evidence (even you should understand that insider witnesses are better evidence than casual observers, and that documents and demographic data are much better evidence than an eyewitness’s educated guess), so the plausible and evidence-backed alternative scenario that disproves them has been provided. On the other hand, the better evidence whereby the gassing at the AR camps was done with gasoline exhaust, the death toll of these camps was in the order of 1.5 million and the overall death toll of Europe’s Jewish population was in the order of 5.1 to 5.5 million, is not matched by any better evidence pointing to an alternative scenario. It is actually not matched by any such evidence at all.

My God, you ‘believers’ even deny the gassings in Dachau, Buchenwald and Bergen-Belsen! Why not in Poland too?

Because all known evidence of various categories (eyewitnesses, documents, physical traces, demographic data) points to mass killing by gassing in extermination camps in Poland, whereas there is no evidence that Buchenwald and Belsen even had gassing installations and no conclusive evidence that the gas chamber at Dachau was ever used for homicidal gassing. And I continue amused by the self-projecting “believers” – BS.

Because there is no more evidence to them either?! Because they are so similar and as credible as the stories about Poland gassings?!

No, there is a big difference in both the quantity and the quality of evidence.

You are already ‘denying’ so many of the gassing propaganda lies, so you might as well ‘deny’ the rest!

We don’t deny, we follow the evidence where it leads.

But you don’t, which makes no sense at all. Your response: “There is more evidence!” => NO! “Buhuhuu! I want to believe!”

You don’t have to tell me that you badly want to believe there’s no more evidence for mass gassings at Auschwitz-Birkenau Treblinka than for mass gassings at Dachau and therefore switch off your tiny brain and bury your head in the sand. But please keep on displaying your hysteria and silliness, it’s fun to watch.

Again the point is that the “gassing crimes” haven’t been proven anywhere.

Again repeating your main article of faith, moron? You seem to be having a hard time trying to convince yourself of it.

Response to Moranen (22)

Not even one body (autopsy).

Instead of repeating that shit, you should be explaining why, i.e. by what accepted rules or standards of evidence, even one autopsy would be required to reasonably conclude on mass murder by gassing at Nazi extermination camps.

So therefore you have no basis on which to discriminate between eyewitnesses, since they are the only “evidence”.

Instead of repeating that shit, you should be explaining why on earth prosecutors and trial judges should not be able to determine which eyewitness testimonies are credible and which are not even if eyewitness testimonies are the only evidence they have. There’s a good legal manual about how to assess eyewitness testimonies that I can recommend to you, if you are interested.

Again, imagine being in a court judging the accused based on tens of different contradictory eyewitnesses with no proof of the murder (and the witnesses would have alleged very contradictory nonsense, lies and unproven claims).

Before we “imagine” anything, how about showing us a court judgment where that is supposed to have been the case? Eyewitness testimonies may have differed in details, and some may have contained exaggerations or other nonsense – human observation and memory are fallible, after all. But all eyewitness testimonies provided at trials like the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trial, by eyewitnesses who never knew what another eyewitness had said and including the accused defendants and other eyewitnesses from the ranks of the SS, coincided on the essential aspects of the selection, killing and body disposal process. There was no “very contradictory nonsense” anywhere outside your sick brain.

Oh by the way, the way I’m coming across is exactly the way you are coming across in your writings. Yes indeed, very very stupid.

Oh really?! Wow. But what if I bribed a 100-year old man to claim that he ordered, by the oral orders of Hitler, to kill all the Jews.


He would be wildly at odds with the historical context and a wealth of eyewitness and documentary evidence contradicting him.

In addition I would bribe tens of old Nazis, SS men or German army officers to prove he did. How about this: “I heard Hitler telling me to kill the Jews and he told me to write the order”, then I would bribe him to write “the order”. I would at least have many eyewitnesses, who suddenly “remembered” and even a convergence of the “replicated oral order”.

They would still be at odds with the historical context and a wealth of other evidence contradicting them, and these contradictions would become apparent upon closed examination. Are you trying to insinuate that thousands of eyewitnesses to Nazi mass murder including former SS-men on trial (some of them sentenced to lifetime imprisonment by West German courts) were “bribed” by someone, by the way? Or where is this infantile babbling supposed to get us?

Response to Moranen (24)

And if the Jewish eyewitnesses are always automatically believed, why not bribe them too... Oh wait, of course I should start bribing the Jew witnesses first! I have a feeling that some of them might suddenly ‘remember’ everything, as soon as they would see enough money. I might even encourage them to write their own ‘replications’ of the Hitler orders that they suddenly remembered seeing in the hands of the wicked Nazis. What else, oh I should also bribe Jew witnesses to ‘remember’ the diesel gassings, steamings, vacuum chambers, electrocutions and definitely the delayed action gas chambers. “I saw the huge mega-underground-vacuum-electric-steam-chamber, which dropped the bodies into electrocution conveyor belt which lead the bodies into the giant lava pit! I was there!” Money makes wonders.

Actually the Jewish eyewitnesses before West German courts were subject to hostile cross-examination like all others, and many of them were considered unreliable or not reliable enough to sustain the respective court’s findings of fact. Just one example, emphases added:

«I knew why I wanted to talk to him. As a man who has dedicated his life to the remembrance of Sobibor and as a serious researcher of Sobibor, I felt there were still some unanswered questions and gaps. As a former senior staff member of a death camp, one of the few still living, he could give me some technical and other important information and facts about the camp and the revolt known only by the SS. I could get the German view of events and solve some puzzling aspects of the camp. But why did he want to talk to me? I asked him outright why he agreed to speak to me. He said he wanted to apologize to me in person. He couldn't do it in the courtroom. "I don't blame you or other witnesses," he said. "And I must honestly say I was sorry for you and all those witnesses... After all those years to have to think back on all those memories and be pressured... they were pressuring and squeezing you in the court...".

This was putting it mildly. The method of the defense was primarily to discredit the testimony of the witnesses by asking them idiotic questions. In my case for example, "How tall was the tree near the barrack?" or " Was the club with which Frenzel beat your father round or not? How many centimeters?" A stranger in the courtroom would immediately have thought I was the defendant and not the victim.»

Jewish witnesses were automatically believed, yeah. You should work hard on your ignorance besides your imbecility if you ever want to be someone in this discussion.

I’m just wondering how unreliable and vague it is to you to ‘prove’ this “gassing crime”, since you don’t require the strict murder evidence for the crime
(even though it should be found, if events occurred as alleged).


You keep repeating yourself. What “strict murder evidence” are you talking about? I require the evidence that was required by Federal German courts at numerous trials over the last decades. If you think you can demonstrate that their requirements violated procedural rules and the rights of the defendants, fire away. Otherwise cut the crap.

I’m also wondering how easy it would be to cheat you, because your demand for evidence and your ‘evidence’ for the crime is so flimsy, that it certainly would be possible, unlike in murder trials.

In murder trials the evidence I consider sufficient has been subject to and stood up to careful examination including hostile cross examination, my friend. As I said before, your ignorance is your other big problem.

And obviously some of you Holocaust believers have already been cheated (or some of your ‘witnesses’ have cheated) and some of you have cheated, when the “obviously guilty Nazis” were convicted of admitted propaganda lies, in the post-war show trials.

I’m looking forward to you demonstrating that any of your Nazi heroes was convicted of “admitted propaganda lies”, bigmouth. Who is that supposed to have been?

Or is this so, because the Nazis are obviously guilty, so therefore there is no need to prove anything?

No, Nazis at the Nuremberg trials or at trials before West German courts were only convicted for such individual criminal actions of his that could be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

And again when you reply for the 100th time, that you “have proven everything” (hoping that if you write enough many times the same lie, it would become ‘truth’), NO YOU HAVEN’T!

Are we into yelling mode, moron? You really seem to be having a hard time convincing yourself of your own articles of faith. Hence your screaming hysteria, I presume.

Or is the next response “no we don’t have to prove the murder this carefully, because other historical events don’t either... if we have to, you have to too!”? => To which I would reply: No. Again, because this is an alleged unique precise mass murder with specific murder weapons in known locations, with known [alleged] mass graves, then it has to be proved as a murder, because it is possible and definitely should leave the required proper evidence! In addition this is admittedly full of lies, inaccuracies, exaggerations, contradictions, myths, rumors and impossibilities and even admitted lies (the 7 points).

Haven’t we been through all this before, my friend? You should avoid repeating yourself too much, you know. It makes your insanity even more obvious than it is already.

Other historical events are not this controversial,

I didn’t know that standards of evidence are determined by how “controversial” an event is rather than by what is reasonably required to prove them, or that the events in question are “controversial” anywhere outside your moronic belief system.

and not alleged to be this precise.

What’s that supposed to mean? If you’re trying to tell me that other historical events have not been examined with the same thoroughness by historians and criminal investigators, I agree.

The revisionists are not accusing anyone of mass murder, so it is not required for them to prove anything this carefully.

I commented that nonsense above, IIRC. You shouldn’t repeat yourself so much. It suggests your own lack of conviction besides showing your insanity.

“And denying this incredible truth >and claiming to be a >"revisionist" must be very stupid >and evil lying.”
→ “Ah, now I get you. Claiming that thousands of eyewitnesses, a wealth of incriminating documents and physical evidence, and the disappearance of millions of people from the European continent who never showed up anywhere else can be explained as the manipulations of some all-powerful and invisible conspiracy, which is what "Revisionists" do, is more than just stupid. It's imbecilic to the point of insanity.”

“Disappearance of millions”. In Israel there is now about 6 million Jews, almost 6 million more than before WW2.


Most of them from the either born there and only 22.6 % of European or American origin, according to the CIA World Factbook:

«Jewish 76.4% (of which Israel-born 67.1%, Europe/America-born 22.6%, Africa-born 5.9%, Asia-born 4.2%), non-Jewish 23.6% (mostly Arab) (2004)»

And here you find information about when those who immigrated got there and where they came from. Not even a nice try, my friend.

In USA the same amount, 1 million more than before the war.

What, one million more than there were 70 years ago? I’m shocked. 

There are some millions in other countries and continents altogether. According to ALL estimations there were 12-18 million Jews before WW2 and 11-18 million after the war.

That’s horseshit, and you need to go no further than Wikipedia to find out:

Even if some millions of Jews are missing, it doesn’t prove they were killed (gassed).

No, it just proves that they died between 1941 and 1945. As to how they died there is other evidence.

Funny how nobody requires “Communist Holocaust Deniers” to explain what happened to 100 million victims of Communism? ‘Are they living in Siberia then if they didn’t all die?!

Thanks for that one, moron. Now we will enjoy your explanation that the “100 million victims of Communism” you obviously accept as factual are proven by better evidence than the 5.1 to 5.5 million victims of the Nazis genocide of the Jews, won’t you?

1-2 million Jews died during WW2, due to Hitler’s and Stalin’s policies,

No, Stalin is responsible for a few ten thousand Jewish Gulag victims at most. Your beloved Führer, on the other hand, bumped of at least 5 million Jews and many more non-Jews – probably including millions of Jew-haters like yourself in Poland and the Soviet Union.

tens of millions of Europeans died fighting the war.

Most of those Europeans were Soviet citizens (subhuman scum in your book, I presume), thereof ca. 2.6 million Jews and 5 – 5.5 million non-Jews murdered by the Nazis. See the following articles for details;

As if it is any wonder that Germans deported the Jews and let them loose somewhere all over the East. If I recall, this is what Stalin did numerous times, and so did other victors of WW2, to Germans too.

Which is why there’s plenty of evidence that they so did, whereas there’s not a shred of evidence that about 2.5 million Jews deported to Chelmno, Belzec, Sobibor, Treblinka, Majdanek and Auschwitz-Birkenau went anywhere beyond these places.

If the Germans had won the war, and gained the destiny of Europeans and Western European Civilization, then I really don’t see how Jews as a whole and their influence in media and politics would be destroying Europeans and our Civilization with multiculturalism, slowly but surely. My God, that would be terrible...

Why do you have a problem with multiculturalism, moron? Look at the bright side of it – lots of pretty African, Indian, Arab or Asian women to look at, chat with, etc. Don’t you think the Finnish population could use some fresh blood and some color?

A real big conspiracy:

One of almost supernatural proficiency and influence it would be. And completely invisible on top of that. Do you also believe in Santa Claus, moron?

In wars there is propaganda

What propaganda about the Nazi genocide of the Jews was there during World War II? Hardly any at all, I dare say.

and victors write history;

In what concerns the cause and background of events, that is true to a certain extent. But not in what concerns the events themselves.

Gassings have been proven as gassing lies with a wealth of evidence;

Still trying to convince yourself of your main article of faith? Your repetitions don’t make it any less hollow, trust me.

WW2 was the most destructive war in history in which the losers were punished very severely, because OBVIOUSLY they had to be guilty to everything (paranoid accuser and revenge mentality); victors in their accuser and revenge mentality believed in or lied about Gassings (because they couldn’t find any other “atrocious crimes” [crimen atrox] to the guilty parties, “once the guilty is known, then the crime can always be found later” [paraphrasing]); there were many communist propagandists in the camps spreading gassing lies and other mass murder lies (Bruno Baum and the likes); camp inmates heard rumors and started believing in them and repeating them => so therefore gassing lies started to become as ‘facts’ into many inmates’ minds; most of the post-war trials were show trials in nature in which you could not question/dispute/deny the “self-evident facts” about gassings which were never proven at all. Medieval witch crime trials. If there were some bribed cases (some bribed Jew witnesses for example who lied), then they lie to their grave or pretending to believe their propaganda bullshit and never confess.

I know that’s what you’d like to believe, so you don’t have to repeat it. The day you have anything to show for all these wild fantasies of yours, please let me know.

Did nobody ever tell you that homicidal gassing in extermination camps was a secondary issue at the Nuremberg Trial of the Major War Criminals, by the way? That trial was mostly about Nazi Germany having waged a war of aggression.

“Are you an evil denier-liar who >claims to be a believer, >"Roberto"?”
→ “Unlike you, my dear moron, I am no believer in anything, for I don't need faith. I have evidence and a capacity for logical thinking, both of which you are obviously lacking. And if you have any doubts about my identity, I can show you my German passport. After you have confirmed my assumption as to who you are, of course.”

Mr. Mule: You do BELIEVE in the Jewish Holocaust of 5-6 million, of which ~3 million were gassed? Yes of course.


No, I don’t believe anything. Only people who have no evidence need to believe. I reasonably conclude from a wealth of documentary, eyewitness, demographic and physical evidence that about 5.1 to 5.5 million Jews fell victim to Nazi persecution and extermination policies during World War II, including about 2.5 million who were killed in extermination camps.

You have no evidence with which you have proven the ~3 million “gassing crimes” nor even one “gassing crime”.

On the contrary, I have documentary evidence showing that and how many people were deported to certain camps, that these camps were final destinations for the deportees and not a stop-over on the way to somewhere else, that they were places where people were sent to be killed and that the stench of corpses emanating from them was noticed many miles away. I have documentary evidence showing that there were thing like a Vergasungskeller and “cremation with simultaneous special treatment” and other niceties in the crematoria of one of these camps. I have physical evidence corroborating what becomes apparent from the documentary evidence, e.g. huge mass graves or mass grave areas filled with or covered by human remains, as described by criminal investigators or archaeologists, at Chelmno and the Aktion Reinhard(t) camps. And I have lots of eyewitness accounts to flesh out and explain what becomes apparent from the documentary and eyewitness evidence. No, I’m in no need of believing anything. I only need to follow evidence and reason.

Therefore you have no basis to pick some “correct eyewitnesses” out of the many “false witnesses”, nor do you even have an obligation to assume that they were gassed.

However often you repeat that shit, West German criminal justice authorities have been able to sift the wheat from the chaff with less non-eyewitness evidence to support their conclusions than historians currently have at their disposal, and the conclusion that massive homicidal gassings at Auschwitz-Birkenau, Treblinka and the other extermination camps are a fact is the only one that is supported by and explains all known evidence and requires no or the fewest additional assumptions, therefore the one that is scientifically sound and dictated by logic and reason.

You just choose to discriminate between witnesses based on your fate on some of the witnesses. For example you seem to believe in witnesses from Poland camps but not from German Reich (1937) camps (Dachau, Buchenwald, Bergen-Belsen). Isn’t this discrimination (or even racism)?

I suggest you go see a shrink, moron. You seem to be badly in need of psychiatric assistance. And your ignorance cries to high heaven.

What I’m lacking is faith in WW2 propaganda lies about gassings.

There is no such thing as “WW2 propaganda lies about gassings” outside your cloud-cuckoo-land, and if there’s anything you have in abundance (besides stupidity), it is blind, uncritical faith.

Mr. Mule is just fine by me. Anonymity is bliss.

I know you’re a coward, no need to reinforce the impression.

Well at least I’m not using it to blame an entire German people collectively of genocide without proof.

And who’s supposed to be doing that, moron? Please tell us another of your fairy tales, it could be fun.

Once confronted of this, you, just like all Jews, deny it and lie even more, “No no, I’m just accusing the German-speaking German Nazis whom all Germans obeyed, Germans just like me”. In reality this is exactly what is happening to German people as a whole. And of course other White European peoples, are as well being manipulated by the Jew-promoted lies to destroy Europeans and European Civilization. Thank God these are only lies that we can destroy with truth.

Go see that shrink, moron. I’m giving you a piece of well-meaning advice, believe me.

And as anyone can see, I beat the living hell out of believers, and caused them to lose their faith, even though they never admit this.

Serious delusions of adequacy are another reason why you should seek psychiatric assistance, my dear White European asshole.

Now, as you parade a picture of your hero Alexander the Faggot at the battle of Issos on your blog profile, I’d like to end our conversation (skipping your recently added “conclusion”, which is just another repetition of the nonsense I slapped around your ears in this commentary) by quoting what a German legal scholar wrote in 1994 regarding the introduction of an express legal provision against Holocaust denial in Germany (my translation):

«Denial of generally known historical facts should not be punishable. For those who maintain, for instance, that Germany did not take part in World War I or that Adenauer fought at Issus in 333, their own stupidity is punishment enough. The same should apply to the denial of the horrors and crimes of the recent German past.»

This quote is included in my Petition to the German Legislator, which you are kindly invited to sign. If you have balls to reveal your identity, that is.
