Delousing + Disinfestation
Epidemics are frequently the most common causes of death during wartime. The two world wars were no exception. Hence all nations involved had to constantly battle the carriers of the pathogens. The techniques used by the Germans during WWII to kill the carriers of the greatest killer behind the German frontline – typhus – are described in the papers listed here. These contributions also address the deliberate misrepresentation by the Allies of these German efforts to save lives by depicting them as methods of mass murder.
Zyklon-B Deliveries to Auschwitz
Abstract Already during the Nuremberg postwar trials, the huge amount of Zyklon-B deliveries to the infamous Auschwitz Camp were seen as evidence for homicidal activities on a large scale in that camp.

After an extensive search, especially of wartime German wartime records held in Polish archives, French author Jean-Claude Pressac acknowledged in his detailed 1989 study, Auschwitz: Technique and Operation of the Gas Chambers, that he was…
High Frequency Delousing Facilities at Auschwitz
According to popular legend, Auschwitz was an extermination center organized to kill as many Jewish prisoners as possible with the greatest possible dispatch. In fact, though, the authorities responsible for Germany’s wartime concentration camp network carried out extensive measures at Auschwitz, and other camps, to save inmates’ lives. Though for decades widely known among specialized…
Revisionist View Confirmed
Two historians in Austria recently made public what they say is the “first technical proof” that gas chambers were used to kill prisoners in German camps during the Second World War. This “major discovery” is a ventilator fan. In the face of the revisionist challenge, historians have for several years been searching for just one…

The “Gas Testers” of Auschwitz

In a massive work he presented "39 criminal traces" for the existence of homicidal gas chambers.[2] All…
