Berg Posts A Forgery

This forgery was exposed on RODOH back in 2006 here, and was removed from the Cesspit by Jonnie Hargis when it was originally posted there (thread copied by Sergey here.). Nick Terry listed the reasons why it was forged in a post to the Cesspit in April 2010, reproduced here. It therefore beggars belief that Fritz Berg has chosen to revive it here and here. The recycling and spamming seems to have increased across conspiraloon sites from the end of December 2010, such as here and here. We thus have a supposed Guru (Berg) jumping on a nutter bandwagon devoted to an obvious fake. Such is the desperation of Holocaust Denial in 2011.

The Holocaust in Lida, 1942-43

The fate of the Jews of Lida was documented in the trial of Werner and Windisch, the findings of which are reproduced by Irene Newhouse here. On 8th April, 1943, GebK Hanweg reported:
Das Gebeit Lida hatte eine Zahl von 20000 juden. Sie wurden in einer einmaligen aktion von fuenf Tagen im Mai vorigen jahres bis auf einen Rest von 4500 erledigt.[Gerlach, Kalkulierte Morde, p.695n.).
Newhouse translates this as:
The district of Lida had a population of 20,000 Jews. They were done away with [erledigt], but for 4,500 of them, in a one-time, 5-day Aktion in May of the previous year.
Hanweg then reported that 4,419 Jews remained alive as of 8th April, 1943.

Another Distortion by Kues

Nuremberg document 3428-PS shows that only 8,600 Jews were counted by the Nazis in Minsk after the killings of July 1942. Kues wishes to neutralize this document, to pretend that the Minsk Jewish population was far higher at that time, so here he has claimed that:
In one of Gerlach's footnotes we learn that, according to a testimony left by a German official named Erich Isselhorst in 1945, the number of Jews deported from Minsk and Baranovichi to Lublin between August and October 1943 had amounted to 12-13,000.
However, Gerlach's footnote states that this testimony "gemeint war wohl Lida" instead of Baranovichi, and thus refers partially to deportations from Lida as well as Minsk. Kues must be aware of this correction by Gerlach but has suppressed it. The Lida deportation, which Kues has cited elsewhere, would thus make a significant reduction in the figure for Minsk alone.

Wilfried Heink lies

In a recent thread on the RODOH forum, Wilfried Heink ("neugierig"), the rabid old Nazi who together with Thomas Kues runs the Inconvenient History blog, disgraced himself by falsely claiming that a recent German research publication endorses the notion of homicidal gassing with diesel exhaust.

Jewish Laws on Mass Graves

On the Incoherent History blog, Wilfried Heink writes this about Jamlitz:
Jewish burial laws/concerns? Not true either: In 2010 a whole area of the former Sachsenhausen sub-camp Lieberose near Jamlitz was dug up, looking for the graves of 753 Jews allegedly murdered there. A Rabbi was present, giving his blessings to the excavations. The whole site was turned upside-down, no regards for any burial laws, but nothing found.
However, a search of the original newspaper reports prior to the excavation reveals this information:
Once the remains are found and reburied according to Orthodox Jewish ritual, a memorial site will be established, according to Brandenburg Interior Minister Joerg Schoenbohm.
It therefore follows that Mr Heink has erected a Straw Man. In reality, Jewish law permits the reburial of human remains in certain very limited circumstances, which are open to interpretation and dispute among religious authorities (see here and here). Moreover, reburial is not an option at the Aktion Reinhard sites because remains there were cremated and the remaining bones after the cremation were pummeled by an ash crew.

Furthermore, whilst Heink is correct that no remains were found in 2009, he omits the fact (stated in his own source) that 589 bodies had been located nearby in 1958 and 1971.

Six Million

[Author clarification Saturday October 29, 2016: The original version of this article was subjected to at least one brainless interpretation. Its intention was to refute the claim by Holocaust Deniers that "6 million" was a Holocaust number fabricated at the end of the war that was based on pre-1939 predictions of Jewish catastrophe. Deniers say 6 million was the dominant figure in Jewish culture before the Holocaust regarding a predicted imminent disaster. This article shows that this was not the case as far as quotes in the press are concerned.]

[See here for a rebuttal of this meme.]

In 1905, the Jewish population of the Russian Empire (including Poland) was counted as 6,060,415. This figure was still being used by American Jewish sources in 1917 (AJC Yearbook, 1916-1917, p. 276). It therefore logically follows that American Jewish organizations seeking aid for their brethren in that region would cite a 6 million figure.

However, the Google News Archive returns these hits for the period 1905-1939:

"Five Million Jews": 42
"Six Million Jews": 44
"Three Million Jews": 57
"Millions of Jews": 1,520


Moreover, stories relating to the imminent starvation, deportation or annihilation of 5 million (not six) can be found here and here and here and here. Similar stories referring to "three million Jews" are here and here. The second article asks for help "so that three million Jews shall not perish from the face of the earth."

Carlo Mattogno and an inconvenient document

Last month one of the lesser "Revisionist" brains, Ralph Gordon, chimed into a discussion about cremations on the RODOH forum with the following remark:

Roberto, you really need to read Mattogno's http://holocausthandbooks.com/22/ as he makes it quite clear why the notion of multiple bodies in a muffle is just technically absurd. But od course you're just a biassed propagandist, but others might appreciate it.


Wilfried Heink spells it out

In his RODOH post 4332 on the thread New Revisionist Videos, Wilfried Heink, who together with Thomas Kues runs the Inconvenient History blog, spelled out very clearly what he considers the purpose of his "Revisionist" activity to be.

Another instructive statement ...

... from "Revisionist" guru Friedrich Paul Berg, in his post 355 on the RODOH thread cremations:

Well, the anti-Nazis, and Kikes, and human scum like Roberto Muehlenkamp have had more than 65 years to examine, and re-examine evidence --and yet, they have still been unable to prove that even one person was ever murdered by the Nazis with poison gas anywhere based on the same kinds of forensic medical evidence that is used in countless criminal cases the world over.


Bravo, Fredo. Keep on showing your readers what makes "Revisionists" like you tick - and how piss-poor your arguments are.
