Quotes
The conclusions of the early U.S. Army investigations as to the truth about the
wartime German concentration camps have since been corroborated by all
subsequent investigators and can be summarized:
1. The harrowing scenes of dead and dying inmates were not the result of a
German policy of "extermination," but rather the result of epidemics of typhus
and other disease brought about largely by the effects of Allied aerial attacks.
2. Stories of Nazi supercriminals and sadists who turned Jews and others into
handbags and lampshades for their private profit or amusement were sick lies or
diseased fantasies; indeed, the German authorities consistently punished
corruption AND cruelty on the part of camp commanders and guards.
3. On the other hand, the representations of the newly liberated inmates to have
been saints and martyrs of Hitlerism were quite often very far fom the truth;
indeed, most of the brutalities inflicted on camp detainees were the work of
their fellow prisoners, in contravention of German policy and German orders.
4. The alleged homicidal showers and gas chambers had been used either for
bathing camp inmates or delousing their clothes; the claim that they had been
used to murder Jews or other human beings is a contemptible fabrication.
Orthodox, Establishment historians and professional "Nazi hunters" have quietly
dropped claims that inmates were gassed at Dachau, Buchenwald, and other camps
in Germany. They continue, however, to keep silent regarding the lies about
Dachau and Buchenwald, as well as to evade an open discussion of the evidence
for homicidal gassing at Auschwitz and the other camps captured by the Soviets.
