The seventh blog of this series addresses the events that led to a temporary suspension of the extermination of Lithuania’s Jews after the massacres organized by Einsatzkommando 3 in 1941, and the fate of this Jewish community’s remainders. Like in the previous blogs of this series, the information presented in this blog is mostly based on German historian Wolfram Wette’s biography of Karl Jäger (Wolfram Wette, Karl Jäger. Mörder der litauischen Juden, S. Fischer Verlag, Frankfurt am Main 2011, hereinafter "Wette, Jäger").

Index of Published Evidence on Mass Extermination in Auschwitz and Auschwitz-Birkenau

The following is a list of evidence on large scale killings in the Auschwitz camp complex, in particular - but not limited to - homicidal gassing. The aim is to highlight the range, diversification and scale of the published evidence on mass extermination in Auschwitz.

Testimonies of prisoners (hearsay) on mass extermination in Auschwitz

The following compilation belongs to the blog post Index of published evidence on mass extermination in Auschwitz and Auschwitz-Birkenau. It was necessarily "outsourced" as the blog software could not handle the large amount of text anymore.

Reconstructing the "Scholars' Debate" about Auschwitz

In 2004 the now extinct original RODOH forum hosted a debate, known as the "Scholar' Debate", between the "Negationist Team", led nominally by the late Dr. Robert Countess and effectively by Scott Smith, and the "Veritas Team", led by Stephen Mock and including Sergey Romanov and myself.

The topic of the debate was the following:

"Resolved, at Auschwitz/Birkenau between 1941 and 1944, a) people were killed in homicidal gas chambers employing Zyklon B, and b) this killing claimed hundreds of thousands of victims."

The submissions of this debate are being reconstructed in the section "Scholars Debate" (2004 + under re-construction) of the new RODOH forum.

The opening statement of the "Veritas Team" has already been posted.
