Never been mass gassings in the entire Old Reich (Germany’s 1937 frontiers). but rather. only in a small number of selected places. especially in occupied Poland. including Auschwitz and Birkenau but not Majdanek. This startling news was given in a simple letter to the editor which was published in the weekly magazine Die Zeit (19 August 1960. page 16). The title was quite misleading and restrictive: Keine Vergasung in Dachau (No Gassing at Dachau).
Instead of Keine Massenvergasung im Altreich
No Mass Gassing in the Old Reich).4 In order to support this contention. Dr. Broszat provided not the slightest piece of evidence. Today [1978]. eighteen years after his letter. neither he nor any of his colleagues has provided the slightest explanation for this affirmation. It would be highly interesting to learn:
- How does Dr. Broszat know that “gas chambers” in the Old Reich were frauds?
- How does he know that the job function email list “gas chambers” in Poland are genuine?
- Why do the “proofs.” the “certainties.” and the “eyewitness accounts” concerning the concentration camps in the west suddenly have no value. while the “proofs.” “certainties.” and “eyewitness accounts” concerning the camps in Poland Communist territory still remain true?
As if by some tacit agreement. not a single recognized historian has raised these questions. How often in the “history of history” has one relied upon the claims of a single historian? 5
German Camps in Occupied Poland
For proof that the “gas chambers” in Belzec or Treblinka really existed. one is asked to rely essentially upon the statement of Kurt Gerstein. The actual document has never been available with its absurd appendices (French “draft” or the “supplements” in German).
Regarding Majdanek. a visit to the actual
site is absolutely necessary. It is even neos collective bought it to build more convincing than a visit to Struthof-Natzweiler. if that is possible. Over this question I will publish additional information.
With regard to Auschwitz and Birkenau. one must rely essentially on the “Memoirs” 7 of Rudolf Höss. which were prepared under the japan number list supervision of his Polish captors. At the actual site. one can only find a “reconstructed” room (Auschwitz I) and ruins (Auschwitz II or Birkenau).
An execution with gas has nothing to do with a suicidal or accidental suffocation. In the case of an execution. the executioner and his team must not be exposed to the slightest danger. For their executions. the Americans employ hydrocyanic acid in a sophisticated way. and that only in a small. hermetically-sealed chamber. Afterwards. the gas is exhausted from the chamber and neutralized.
