The Revisionist
claim:
The numbers
of "Holocaust" victims are irresponsibly
exaggerated.
The numbers game of alleged Jewish losses is
indeed a vexing one. Many, many people of all
nationalities disappeared or perished in the war
and cannot be accounted for. Some lie in the
ashes of Allied bombings of German cities and
buried beneath collapsed buildings; others were
incinerated in bomb-caused Allied firestorms;
still others perished in the Russian Gulags long
after the shooting had stopped.
It is unfair and incorrect to claim - as is
routinely claimed - that if a person cannot be
accounted for, he or she perished due to
genocide - or, worse yet, due to gassings.
In fact, the "Holocaust" is
the best example of ". . . death proved by
the stories of million of survivors."
Does that not make you think?
The media is full of "survivor" organizations
existing in every major city of the Western
World - from Toronto to Johannesburg; from Rio
de Janeiro to Los Angeles.
Suffice it to say that the Germans have paid
over 4,300,000 pension and restitution claims;
40% of those recipients live (or lived) in
Israel. Others are of Jewish background but have
chosen to live in other parts of the world.
If so many millions of Jewish people died at the
hands of the Germans, why are there so many
survivors?
Aficionados of the "Holocaust" have often called
Jacob Robinson a "historian" and
"internationalist jurist" and referred to him as
a prime source of authoritative information on
what happened to the Jews.
Jacob Robinson was, in fact, a cunning East
European Jewish shyster with a diabolical plan
and agenda. He was the inventor/creator of the
"revolutionary concept" of the idea of the
Nuremberg Trial for Germany's leaders and the
German Reparations scheme.
According to Nahum Goldman, former President of
the World Jewish Congress,
". . . Apart from my
encounter with the survivors of the
concentration camps after the liberation, I
only returned officially to Germany in order
to meet Chancellor Adenauer and open
negotiations about reparations. These
reparations constitute an extraordinary
innovation in terms of international law.
Until then, when a country lost a war, it
paid damages to the victor, but it was a
matter between states, between governments.
Now for the first time a nation was to give
reparations either to ordinary individuals or
to Israel, which did not legally exist at the
time of Hitler's crimes. All the same, I must
admit that the idea did not come from me.
During the war the WJC (World Jewish
Congress) had created an Institute of Jewish
Affairs in New York (its headquarters are now
in London). The directors were two great
Lithuanian Jewish jurists, Jacob and Nehemiah
Robinson. Thanks to them, the Institute
worked out two completely revolutionary
ideas: the Nuremberg tribunal and German
reparations. (Goldman, Nahum, The Jewish
Paradox, Grosset & Dunlap, 1978, p
122)
Put two and two together.
Reparation claims are based on number of victims
- somewhat like an insurance claim after a plane
crash and a subsequent fire. It pays to keep
these numbers high. No mystery to that.
Now visualize an insurance company that has to
pay for a fire in which, supposedly, some family
members perished. It does not take a rocket
scientist to figure out that if the insurance
company is prevented from checking vital
documents, such as: ". . . who was actually
booked on that plane. . . ? - a non-existent
"victim" uncle or aunt could conceivably
materialize, defrauding the insurance company.
These things are known to have been done to some
insurance companies.
To trot out the old canard of the "Protocol of
Wannsee" (of Jan. 20, 1942) allegedly outlining
the Nazi plans to "annihilate the European Jews"
shows real chutzpah. Even the Jewish Holocaust
expert Yehuda Bauer of Hebrew University in
Jerusalem has said that Wannsee was a meeting,
but "hardly a conference," and that ". . .
little of what was said there was executed in
detail."
Here is the quote in full, under the title:
Wannsee's importance rejected, in the Canadian
Jewish News, Jan. 30, 1992:
"The public still repeats,
time after time, the silly story that at
Wannsee the extermination of the Jews was
arrived at. Wannsee was but a stage in the
unfolding of the process of mass murder."
(Canadian Jewish News, Jan. 30, 1992)
According to the New York Times, November 12,
1989, (Bauer) added when chided saying that he
would not want to ". . . add grist for the mills
of the deniers of the Holocaust: "They can add,
you know. . ." (Auschwutz Revisionism: An
Israeli Scholar's Case, NYT, Nov 12, 1989)
They did, and they do.
By doing so, they "shrunk the Holocaust." Let us
take Auschwitz, for example. According to a
December 10, 1995 summary prepared by Dr.
Faurisson, here is a telling visual:
(In this graph, the tallest bar represents 9
million persons, and the smallest bar represents
630,000 - 710,000, of whom 470,000 - 550,000
were believed to have been Jews. (For the actual
and detailed verification of both numbers and
sources, go to Dr. Faurisson's textual document,
marked Appendix A)
The ever-shrinking numbers of Auschwitz
"victims" should give skeptical people - people
who apply common sense to this topic - pause to
ponder. Yehuda Bauer, Jewish Holocaust scholar,
admitted the falsity of the 4 million figure in
a November 1989 article, where he comments on
the cruel manipulation of the numbers of victims
in Auschwitz by Zionists and Communist
propagandists and liars alike. (Auschwitz
Revisionism: An Israeli Scholar's Case. NYT,
November 12, 1989.)
Let's mention the Red Cross here as well. This
so-called "humanitarian" organization has much
to do with the fact that the numbers are so
unreliable.
The Red Cross played an ignoble role during and
especially after the war when dealing with
alleged "Nazi atrocity" stories and statistics.
(See sworn testimony of Charles Biederman during
the Zündel Trial. Did Six Million
Really Die? Report of the Ev idence in the
Canadian "False News" Trial of Ernst Zündel
- 1988, Edited by Barbara Kulaszka, pp
80-84. It is worth reading in its entirety.)
Below I am merely offering two excerpts of this
testimony, as summarized in the Zündel
Transcripts by Barbara Kulaszka in her book:
"Did Six Million Really
Die?":
"Access to the documents was
limited by the Bonn Agreements of 1955 to
former persecutees and their legal successors
on the grounds that the documents were all
person-related and therefore not open to the
public. (11-2497, 2498). The wording used in
the Bonn Agreement was that the archives were
"only to be evaluated in the interests of the
former persecutees themselves or their
successors." (12-2676). The only exception to
this rule, as provided for under the
agreements, was that representatives of any
of the ten Allied governments of the
supervisory body had the right to inspect the
documents. (11-2497) Any application by one
of the ten governments for access was
reviewed by the Director of the ITS (Internal
Tracing System); if the Director felt it was
not justified, he could submit the
application to the International Commission
for the final decision. He could not remember
any request by Israel being denied.
(12-2711)"
In other words, Israel can look at the data,
but German researchers and historians cannot.
Revisionists cannot. Ernst Zündel cannot.
Mr. Wiesenthal, presumably, can.
The Kulaszka trial transcript summary goes on to
say:
Biedermann confirmed that as
of December 31, 1983, the total number of
deaths registered with the Special Registry
Office and various other registry offices was
373,468. (11-2515) This figure represented
death certificates issued pursuant to
received applications and was based, with
respect to the Special Registry Office, on
camp records kept by the Nazis during the
war. (11-2516, 2517)
Biedermann agreed that at an international
conference held by the International
Committee of the Camps in Vienna in 1977, the
then director of the ITS, Albert de Cocatrix,
gave a speech which indicated that as of
December 31, 1976 a total of 357,190 names of
persons who died in concentration camps had
been registered at the Special Registry
Office. Biedermann confirmed that these
numbers actually came from the ITS. (12-2640
to 2646) He pointed out, however, that these
figures resulted from applications. If an
entire family had died, there was no one to
make an application for a death certificate.
Secondly, the ITS had complete documentation
for only two of the twenty-two concentration
camps. For the remainder, it had either
partial or no documentation. Therefore, if an
application was made for a person who had
allegedly died in one of these camps, the ITS
would not have the records to justify a
request to the Special Registry Office for a
death certificate. (12-2647)
It is really ridiculously simple. The numbers
game on which the reparations claims are based
could be laid to rest tomorrow.
The Red Cross via its International Tracing
Service in Arolson, headed by Red Cross
delegate, Charles Biedermann, has important
information on hand of every concentration camp
inmate who ever went through a German
prisoner-of-war or civilian concentration camp.
These 14 million pieces of information could,
with today's computer technology, OCR software
etc. be sifted, categorized, analyzed and
double-checked. In a very short time, this
information could be made available to the
public, which would put an effective end to all
the abuse, misinterpretation, fudging and
falsifying of alleged and real numbers of "Nazi
victims."
The German Government can and should have
checked the inmates' records 50 years ago. Why
is this not being done? A good guess is that
then it would have been revealed for all the
world to see that false reparations claims were
made and billions were paid and have been
fraudulently collected for a long time.
There are letters by the Arolson Tracing Service
which at least give a partial glimpse at what is
available in those archives there. The Red
Cross, by accepting the currently worded
10-nation agreement or mandate with which it
administers this macabre but important legacy of
WW II, has become a willing accomplice in
obfuscating research and is, in fact, hiding
historical facts.
I am on record saying that the Red Cross is
deliberately stone-walling an honest
investigation into one of the saddest chapters
in human history. If the Red Cross does not like
this justified criticism, let them get out of
the business of hiding the truth from the public
looking for answers.
