HOLOCAUST........ Fact or Fiction?

Then your research missed the lift that rather puts a crimp in your carrying bodies through narrow hallways and up stairs argument.

Once the gas was ventilated and the prisoners were dead the bodies had to be removed from room 9 by going back into room 5 and use the elevator 6.

6. The lift elevator is a small cramped location that wouldn't hold very many bodies at a time. But it is the only way to get into the crematory room 1.

2000 bodies had to be removed from room 9 and into room 5 and then up the lift 6. All of this would have been done by hand. I doubt bodies were carried by one worker. It would probably require two workers per body to carry them. With the cramped space I doubt there were more than two workers but that could be argued.

you posted one video link as an answer to her question.
1. You are an idiot that used youtube for research and Harper is correct to ignore you
2. You didn't understand the question.
3. You did understand the question and are avoiding answering it.


You clearly didn't give a valid answer of how you did your research or the criteria you used.

Six thousand or six million does not change the inhumanity of an atrocity, just how large an atrocity is. Krumple might be inadvertently teaching a very wrong viewpoint, relative to atrocities?

I find it amusing that this guy(?) is calling me--a history major at Cal Berkeley, a future PhD candidate and someone who is currently studying genocide--an idiot.

I know by responding I am keeping the thread alive but I think the best thing to do is just let this thread die. This garbage does not deserve serious discussion.

fortunately for folks like you, the NAzis kept impeccable records and the number of six million actually relates to the number of Jews that were killed in th ghettos and those that were killed in camps as an inclusive series of atrocities.

Now that you mention it, I remember seeing maps that shows where the prisoners came to Auschwitz from - all over Europe. I'm pretty sure the Germans kept very good records of those transfers, and where each prisoner came from because they showed numbers.

Get it through your thick skull that not all the information being provided is to answer your personal interests.

To remind you, the title of this thread is "HOLOCAUST......Fact or Fiction." There are other people engaged in this discussion that are included in the title of this thread.

The camp's first commandant, Rudolf Höss, testified after the war at the Nuremberg Trials that up to three million people had died there (2.5 million gassed, and 500,000 from disease and starvation),[3] a figure since revised to 1.3 million, around 90 percent of them Jewish.[4][5] Others deported to Auschwitz included 150,000 Poles, 23,000 Roma and Sinti, 15,000 Soviet prisoners of war, some 400 Jehovah's Witnesses and tens of thousands of people of diverse nationalities.[6][7] Those not killed in the gas chambers died of starvation, forced labor, infectious disease, individual executions, and medical experiments.[8]

and read some of the US Army reports of finding the camps.
