John Demjanjuk and a US Judge’s Ruling After losing a long legal battle to stay in the US, John Demjanjuk was deported to Germany on May 12 to stand trial for alleged war crimes. He is charged with helping to murder 29,000 Jews. In 2002, US District Court Judge Paul R. Matia claimed in his…

Belzec or the Holocaust Controversy of Roberto Muehlenkamp

Kola’s “Building E” at Sobibór – Some Preliminary Observations

Between 1997 and 1999, Polish archeologist Professor Andrzej Kola carried out select excavations and probe drills at the former site of the Bełżec camp in eastern Poland, where allegedly 434,501 Jews (434,508 Jews were deported to the camp according to the so-called Höfle telegram, whereof 7 reportedly survived) were gassed to death, buried, disinterred and…
