So if you agree that the Nazis themselves produced documents describing the gassing of prisoners in their concentration camps, why are we having this discussion? Were the Nazis themselves part of the Jewish conspiricy?0 -

Yes there are, I just showed you them.0 -
A brief note -- it turns out that Jess Weise, the kid who blew away nine people in a school yesterday in Minnesota, was a Nazi sympathizer and a poster on http://www.nazi.org, the website of the Libertarian National Socialist Green Party who, yesterday, released a public statement of breathtaking hypocrisy, washing their hands of any blame and claiming that "such events are to be expected". Though now removed from the LNSG's website, some of Weise's postings are still available in Google's cache, at this location, though they'll probably disappear from there soon.
While arguably off-topic, I'm, nonetheless, posting this in case anybody has any doubt about the warming effect of publicly-expressed, and publicly-available, pro-Nazi sympathies upon the society's derelicts.

With that in mind I would point out that Western society tolerates the diverse dissenting voices of Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, Russ Kick and Mark Thomas, and broadcasts the work of John Pilger and Adam Curtis on mainstream media, we are hardly at 1984 levels of mind-control ... just yet.
I mean no disrespect. But we are all easily fooled, as any magician can attest. Well publicized dissent may only be the appearance of dissent and not actual dissent.
Consider Howard Zinn's book, "A People's History of the United States 1492-Present." The violent deaths of President Lincoln, James Forrestal, President John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., Robert F. Kennedy and Vincent Foster are not mentioned. Zinn's history is missing something. Zinn wrote, "Putting aside the wild accusations against Roosevelt (that he knew about Pearl Harbor...or deliberately provoked the Pearl Harbor raid--these are without evidence..." Zinn never strays from the official "truth" on the significant events, and yet Zinn's popular fault is only his harmless "liberal bias."
Chomsky is another dissenter who also plays the leftist role. The left versus the right is standard for acceptable "critics" but ALL these critics on both the left and the right AGREE Lee Harvey Oswald shot President John F. Kennedy and 19 terrorists attacked the USA on 9/11. The "dissenter" Chomsky pulls his punches on these events or the attack on the U.S.S. Liberty. Serious high level corruption is where Naom will not roam. For more on Chomsky see:

A Chomsky Dissenter
When I trusted Noam Chomsky
I had a cozy home.
With my academic friends
I did not feel alone.
I liked his doughty dissidence;
At least I thought him bold.
And he helped me see beyond
The daily lies we're told.
Then I saw he stayed away
From major mysteries
Like a student of the woods
Who won't go near the trees.
Now the trees are falling down
And crushing all we see,
And all the Chomskyites can do
Is run away from me.
-David Martin
When you can see past Chomsky you eyes will be wide open. It is a liberating experience.Obni wrote:As for being branded a 'conspiracy nut' (or the wonderfully fluid 'conspiraloon') and losing friends and fortune, remember your Ecclesiates "the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.""If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence."
Compare Russell's words with the words you offered from KCF:"You examine the claims, place tentative value judgements on their plausibility. You examine the background of the people making the claims to attempt to figure out if they have an ulterior motive for making the claims. You examine the mechanisms by which they claim the truth is being suppressed and similarly attempt to apply rationality to them."Obni wrote:If there is no guarantee of truth from any source, then you must simply rely on informed judgement and common sense.
Some prefer men and science as the source of truth. We will believe what we desire.0 -

Eriugena wrote:KCF: I would be happy to look at a list of say the top 10 historians you claim support holocaust denial.
Eriugena: O.k. try these for starters - Paul Rassinier, Robert Faurisson, Carlo Mattogno. We can come back to some more later. Incidentally no one knows more about Auschwitz than Mattogno.
You dishonestly ignored the names I supplied you with settling instead for people that you brought into the discussion.
The quote that you included was from somebody else - during a period when I was otherwise occupied and was sadly unable to indulge in your wisdom.
So getting back to your point, I've already dealt with Rassinier more than adequately. If I get time, I'll respond to the two new candidates. Or I might paint my toenails.0 -
Eriugena wrote:. What contradictions have you got in mind? Could you be more precise? No, he didn't say that, he said, quite rightly, that chemical evidnece alone[/B] does not disprove gas chambers. The way it works is as follows. There are various testimonies that make claims about homocidal gassings in Auschwitz using the pesticide Zyklon B. These testimonies allege things that are disproved by the chemical evidence, for example a gassing that takes four minutes. This is simply impossible under the conditions described. Z-B cannot discharge gas at that speed, to the extent alleged in the time etc, etc. So chemical evidence alone does not prove or disprove gas chambers, it is this kind of evidence used in combination with the other kinds that contribute to a truer picture of what those structures were used for.
But again, that doesn't dispove gas chambers. It disproves that the person was killed in 4-5 minutes.
It is the assumption that because the exact details that Jews give about the gassing are incorrect, they must be lying about the gassing in the first place. That assumption is not backed up by chemical evidence. In fact it is contradicted by the chemical evidence. The assumption comes from the idea that their exisits a conspiricy, therefore they must be lying. It is a cyclic proof. When Jews say there were gas chambers they are lying, because there exists a conspiricy to defraud the world, and because there is a conspiricy testemony from Jews is lies.
The line seems to go like this. Chemical evidence shows that there were chambers where Zyklon B were used. The Jews and the Nazi's documentation both say they were used to gas people. But because of the assumption that all the Jews are lying, and all the Nazi documentation is fake, we must assume that the truth is the opposite of what they said. QED, there were no gas chambers.
Can you not see the flaw in that logic?Eriugena wrote:How about looking at the transcripts of the trial?Eriugena wrote:Bill Armontrout, for example, supervisor of executions for the State of Missouri disagreed, on the stand at the 1988 retrial he had a different view of Leuchter than the one pushed by Nizkor.Eriugena wrote:Leuchter was permitted to give evidence at the trial but not as an 'expert' in the strictly legal sense.Eriugena wrote:He is an expert in his field.
He is not an expert in his field, that is why he was not allowed to give evidence as an expert in his field. As far as I can tell I can't find anywhere where it says he has any formal training in chemistry at all.Eriugena wrote:Nizkor lie routinely about revisionism.

There is also documentation describing the gas chambers as "gassing cellers"
http://www.holocaust-history.org/auschwitz/19430129-vergasungskeller/
Here is a translation of the document as it appears at HHP:Except for some minor construction work, Krematorium II was finished by working with all our available forces day and night, despite inexpressible difficulties and freezing weather. The ovens were fired in the presence of the senior engineer Prüfer of the executing firm, Topf and Sons, Erfurt, and they are working faultlessly. The reinforced concrete ceiling of the morgue could not yet be eliminated due to the freezing weather. However, this is not significant, as the gassing cellar can be used for this purpose.
Due to the railway car prohibition, the company Topf and Sons could not deliver the aeration and deaeration equipment at the time demanded by the Zentralbauleitung. After the aeration and deaeration equipment arrive, however, installation will begin immediately, so that presumably by February 20, 1943, it will be completely ready for operation. Enclosed find a report of the inspecting engineer of the firm of Topf and Sons.
The problem is that this letter contradicts another of the same timeOn page 210 of his book, Professor Robert van Pelt publishes part of a letter, supposedly written by Bischoff to his superior, Hans Kammler, in Berlin announcing the operationability of Krema II at Auschwitz-Birkenau.
What is surprising is that in such a relatively important letter and in the small segment shown, there are 3 spelling errors:
Nachbetrieb instead of Nachtbetrieb
funtionieren instead of funktionieren
Die instead of Dies
The other surprising thing about this letter is that its date, 29 January 1943, is the same as that of the Tomitschek/Swoboda note on the electricals for Krema II.
Bischoff states in his letter that the ovens were started up and performed well; on the other hand the Tomitschek/Swoboda note states that the electricals needed another two weeks to be connected , one wonders how the ovens worked without the blowers for the forced draft.
Thomas Dunskus
8, route de Biac
F-33760 Faleyras
Tel.: + 33 - (0)5 56 23 66 12
Now these two letters (Tomitschek/Swoboda and the Bischof letter) flatly contradict each other.
There's more.On January 29, 1943, Engineer Kurt Prüfer of the Topf firm inspected the
sites of the four Birkenau crematoria and wrote a test report, in which he noted the following regarding crematorium II:
“This building complex is structurally completed except for minor secondary
work (due to frost, ceiling of the corpse cellar can not yet be cut
out.) The 5 three-muffle cremation furnaces are ready and at present are
being dry heated. The delivery of the ventilation unit for the corpse cellar
was delayed as a result of the suspension on railway cars, so that the in-
stallation can take place no sooner than 10 days from now. Therefore the
start of operation of crematorium II is certainly possible on February 15,
43.”
The term 'Vergassung' in itself has no suspicious connotation. The known contexts in which it emerges are fumigation and carburration.
Another problem emerges in that it is not clear what is meant by this; "The reinforced concrete ceiling of the morgue could not yet be eliminated due to the freezing weather. However, this is not significant, as the gassing cellar can be used for this purpose."
Why do they want to 'elminate' the ceiling of the morgue? And "the Vergasungskeller could be used for this purpose" What purpose?
It is not clear what this letter is actually about, even if we take it as authentic.0 -
I have found it is easier to determine what is false, Chomsky for example.0

Anyone can give evidence in a trial. It doesn't mean he knew about what he was talking about.I could give evidence in a trial about rocket propulsion, but if I claimed to know what I was talking about, that wouldn't be allowed.He is not an expert in his field, that is why he was not allowed to give evidence as an expert in his field.As far as I can tell I can't find anywhere where it says he has any formal training in chemistry at all.0

1. The letters mention corpse-cellars, morgues, ovens, cremation, gassing cellars, aeration and deaeration equipment, all in the context of a concentration camp which many historians and eye-witnesses claim was in fact an 'extermination camp'.

Magic bullets ...no. BTW, Have you seen the excellent documentary "The Kennedy Assassination: Beyond Conspiracy"?

When I receive an apology for your abusiveness towards me.Eriugena wrote:Do you have any evidence for that completely unsupported and laughable assertion?
My opinion is based upon several things. Firstly there is the circular argument, which isn't much help here. Secondly, from what I've read and seen of Faurisson, he appears to be a hate-filled individual who also comes across as being slightly deranged. His background in French traditional rightwing catholicism, which supported the nazis wholeheartedly, his association with and championing of well-known nazis like Zundel, his curious choice of vocation for a professor of literature, all combine to put him into the 'probably a nazi' category for me. Furthermore, apart from the denials of anti-semitism and fascism - which are par for the course even for the most obvious fascists and are thus worthless as evidence - I am unaware of him expressing any fundamental criticisms or differences with the politics of fascism. For somebody who spends so much time 'researching' the history of the holocaust, this would be highly unlikely if he was not of the fascist persuasion.
My reasoning for Mattogno is roughly equivalent.
If you have evidence to the contrary, you can feel free to present it. As I say, I really don't know or care that much about either of them and amn't really that interested in the details of the holocaust.
To be honest, I've grown quite bored of sharing the same bit of cyberspace as you and it's only anthropology that's keeping me going.
What I find amazing is that you and your dim friends appear to spend vast amounts of time trawling through documents about the holocaust, looking for tiny anomalies, mis-spellings and discrepancies in gas residues on stone walls. If you look at any event in enough detail through the distorting and partial glass of history, you will find that there are weird coincidences and inexplicable happenings all over the place. If somebody tried to make sense of a week of anybody's life by interviewing all their acquaintances and uprooting all the documentary evidence there would be sufficent inexplicable material to launch a thousand conspiracy theories.
The fact that there was a holocaust in which millions were killed is so well documented and supported by liberal academia that it is beyond dispute. Why on earth would you bother wasting your time trawling through the details looking for tiny morsels of conspiracy-fuel when the central fact is so solid? Despite the sinister nature of your motivations, it's more than a little sad. Anybody with half a brain can see that the two great social experiments of the 20th century - fascism and bolshevism - were complete catastrophes and the most important thing that we should take from the experience is "never again".0 -

The conspiracy includes airline hijackers stealing indentities, because some are still officially alive (I am not making this up) and at least one, Hani Hanjour, who (I am not making this up) is unable to even fly a small Cessna propeller airplane. The conspiracy even planned for the U.S. Air Defense System to stand down and wait for the conspirator Hani Hanjour to fly for almost an hour, in a hijacked plane, to reach his target, the Pentagon!

By the way you like to call people names too, like "conspiraloon." This shouldn't bother you but I was just thinking, everyone knew Socrates was wise but Socrates did not say he was wise. The same thing also is true for fools like yourself. It is obvious that you are a fool but you would never say you were a fool. How 'bout that?
