Most people just ignore the Holocaust deniers, but the Dutch government actually tested their claim.
#I TRIED TO RESPOND TO COWPER TO PRANK ME SERIES#
One denier called it “just one more fraud in a whole series of frauds perpetrated in support of the ‘Holocaust’ legend and the saga of the Six Million.” They claim it is a forgery, a scheme by her father to get rich. Some Holocaust deniers believe that Anne Frank’s diary was faked. “The three S-vans which are there are not sufficient for that purpose.” “A transport of Jews, which has to be treated in a special way, arrives weekly,” he complained.
In another letter from an SS officer to the Reich Security Office, the officer complained that he didn’t have enough gas vans to kill everyone he was expected to kill. August Becker, wrote that he “ordered that during application of gas all the men were to be kept as far away from the vans as possible” to ensure their safety.Īnother suggested moving the exhaust “so that the gas is fed from the top downwards” to keep the vehicles from rusting. Several German officers left behind letters about the vans, most complaining about the way the vans were built. When the ignition was sparked, the carbon monoxide of the exhaust would fill up the compartment, killing everyone inside. The exhaust pipes were curved, turning under the car and up through holes in the floor. Thousands of Jews were forced into those compartments, and there they died. These were large black vehicles with massive, airtight cargo compartments in the back. In some death camps, Jews were exterminated in gas vans. “Altogether,” the report boasts, “European Jewry must have been reduced by almost half since 1933, that is to say, during the first decade of the development of the power of National Socialism.” It notes how the numbers are dropping and takes a twisted pride in Germany’s role in getting the Jewish population down. This was a statistical report, listing the number of Jews still left in Europe. In 1943, Heinrich Himmler commissioned a report called “The Final Solution of the European Jewish Problem”-one of the Nazi documents that most clearly shows their approval of Jewish genocide. They monitored the number of Jews still living in Europe, working to get the number down to zero. The Nazis took a deep interest in these numbers. Even after seven years of new lives being born, there were a mere 11,000,000 left alive. When the war ended, that number had dropped by a third.
