Holocaust Typhus and Zyklon B
Holocaust Typhus and Zyklon B
This video (10 minutes) reports on the various methods used by the Germans to combat Typhus. Their main weapon was the use of a fumigant called Zyclon B [Zyclon is the German word for Cyclone] to kill lice, bugs, fleas and other vermin which carried the disease. This is a cyanide gas product. Buildings, clothes, ships, and trains were all fumigated with Zyclon B. Zyclon B was not confined to Germany, it was also used in the USA. It was important that each transport of prisoners were fumigated before entry into a camp, to avoid passing on the disease to the prisoners already present. Other methods would be that internees or prisoners would also shower, have their hair cut, and then being issued with clean clothing. Continual use of Zyclon B in buildings leads to prominent marks of blue on the walls, which can be seen on the walls on the delousing chambers at German concentration camps. Zyclon B was therefore a lifesaver and not a killer. The idea of using Zyclon B to kill prisoners is just a propaganda lie, it's just absurd. It's not even neccessary – putting prisoners in a airtight room would mean they would suffocate, as the oxygen is consumed, so no "gas" required. Shooting is far easier, and the Communists had no problem in Russia, China and Cambodia using that method. The "Holocau$t" is an attack on logic and rationality.
