Buchenwald: Legend and Reality

Editor's Note: Mark Weber's article “Buchenwald: Legend and Reality” is a useful and timely corrective made more so by President Obama's visit on June 5, 2009 to the site of the former Nazi concentration camp at Buchenwald.

Vergasungskeller

Veteran revisionists recognize that an outstanding small problem has been the “Vergasungskeller” that was evidently in or near Crematorium II in the Birkenau part of the Auschwitz camp. Crematorium II (and its mirror image Crematorium III) had two huge underground morgues, Leichenkeller 1 (LK 1) and LK 2, and a smaller morgue LK 3. LK…

The Horrible Scenes of 1945

A little book making clear what happened at Belsen, in the catastrophic typhus epidemic of 1945, was published by Derrick Sington, the British officer to whom the German commander surrendered the camp: Belsen Uncovered (Duckworth, London, 1946). While Belsen was captured by the British, Dachau was captured by the Americans. The situation, overwhelmed by catastrophic…

My Visit to Auschwitz-Birkenau, May 30-31, 1996

My introduction to this report is to advance the simple proposition that one cannot fully appreciate the alleged modus operandi of the Holocaust without actually visiting its setting and structure. I chose Auschwitz-Birkenau based on a keen study of the Leuchter Report but also the criticisms offered by his nemesis, Jean-Claude Pressac. I went both…

German Concentration Camps

Most German concentration camps were in Germany and Austria (e.g. Belsen, Buchenwald, Dachau) but some were in Poland (e.g. Auschwitz, Majdanek). Other camps in Poland (e.g. Treblinka, Sobibor, Belzec) were not concentration camps but transit camps, i.e. most arrivals did not stay there but were reorganized to be sent on further (Belsen was also in…

Claimed Crematory Rates at Birkenau Seem Improbable

The following text represents the author's opinion, which is being made available for public review and comment. Jean-Francois Beaulieu is a resident of Montreal, Canada who, like many people, simply stumbled across the revisionist debate. On examination of some of the details, he became at first puzzled by descriptions that seemed technically improbable. After posting…
