Dr. Wilhelm Stäglich
Dr. Wilhelm Stäglich (1916-2006), German judge and historian, was an important revisionist writer, most notably for his detailed study, Der Auschwitz-Mythos.
Born November 11, 1916, he studied law and political science at the University of Rostock and the University of Göttingen, from where he received a doctorate in law (Dr. jur.) in 1951. For years he served as a Finance Court judge in Hamburg. He was the author of numerous articles on legal and historical subjects.
During the Second World War he served from mid-July to mid-September 1944 as an Ordonnanzoffizier (orderly officer) on the staff of an anti-aircraft detachment stationed near the Auschwitz camp. As part of his duties, he maintained contact with the SS camp command, and had unlimited access to the Auschwitz main camp, where the command was headquartered.
Disturbed by the obvious discrepancies between what he had witnessed during the war at Auschwitz , and the portrayal of the camp that emerged at war’s end, he resolved ” after years of silence ” to speak out, and to undertake a serious investigation of this important subject.
As punishment for a revisionist essay, he was dismissed as a judge in 1975 by court order, and forced into early retirement with a reduction of his pension.
His detailed book, Der Auschwitz-Mythos: Legende oder Wirklichkeit, was published in March 1979 by the Grabert Verlag of Tübingen. The book is a systematic, critical examination of the documents, testimonies, confessions and personal accounts that portray Auschwitz as a center of programmatic extermination by gassing and other means.
It was soon banned by German authorities, and in 1983 German police raided his publisher’s offices and confiscated the remaining unsold copies.
That same year the University of Göttingen “withdrew” or cancelled Stäglich’s doctoral degree “ ironically on the basis of a law promulgated during the Hitler era.
For years Dr. Stäglich was a member of the Editorial Advisory Committee of the IHR’s Journal of Historical Review. His address in 1983 at the Fifth Conference of the Institute for Historical Review was published in the Spring 1984 IHR Journal. In 1986 an English-language edition of his book was published by the IHR under the title Auschwitz: A Judge Looks at the Evidence.
You may ask, if it’s all a hoax, then why did no one come forward, even years later and say it was a hoax? The answer is that the Germans who knew it was a hoax were the ones in the camps. Not the German public or those outside the camp. The Germans who worked in delousing camps framed as death camps, like Sobibor and Treblinka; or who worked in labor camps framed as death camps like Auschwitz. They were vulnerable to prosecution. Any German who worked in these camps, could have a Thomas Blatt figure come along and say “I saw you beat my father!” on the witness stand. Thomas Blatt’s testimony, for instance, was largely responsible for putting Karl Frenzel in jail for his whole life.
Testimony of the National Socialist Leadership
THE FRENCH RESISTANCE
After World War II, French resistance members were released from various German concentration camps, including Auschwitz and other alleged death camps. On their return to France they all gave accounts of their treatment by the Germans. However they all denied any knowledge of gas chambers and a mass murder programme in the concentration camps.
WESTERN ALLIES NEVER LIBERATED ANY DEATH CAMPS WITH GAS CHAMBERS
None of the Western Allies ( Britain, Canada, USA, Australia, France etc. ) liberated any camps that had gas chambers, or other systems of mass murder in them. All the alleged death camps with gas chambers were liberated by the Russians. Consequently any alleged evidence of death camps and/or gas chambers was forthcoming solely from Soviet Russia. The Western Allies liberated a total of 12 main camps and the Soviet Russians 8 main camps.
Extermination Camps “ Leftover Soviet Propaganda
Behind the “Iron Curtain” the Soviet Union was free to make whatever outrageous claims they wanted about German WW2 Era concentration camps and they did.
No matter what Joseph Stalin’s minions claimed, none of the alleged “extermination camps” had homicidal gas chambers.
It’s time to throw Soviet propaganda about “homicidal gas chambers” into the trash can of history.
From the IHR :
When American and British forces overran western and central Germany in the spring of 1945, they were followed by troops charged with discovering and securing any evidence of German war crimes.
Among them was Dr. Charles Larson, one of America’s leading forensic pathologists, who was assigned to the US Army’s Judge Advocate General’s Department. As part of a US War Crimes Investigation Team, Dr. Larson performed autopsies at Dachau and some twenty other German camps, examining on some days more than 100 corpses. After his grim work at Dachau, he was questioned for three days by US Army prosecutors. [1]
Dr. Larson’s findings? In an 1980 newspaper interview he said: “What we’ve heard is that six million Jews were exterminated. Part of that is a hoax.” [2] And what part was the hoax? Dr. Larson, who told his biographer that to his knowledge he “was the only forensic pathologist on duty in the entire European Theater” of Allied military operations, [3] confirmed that “never was a case of poison gas uncovered.”
The Liberation of the Camps: Facts vs. Lies

THE LIBERATION OF BELSEN CONCENTRATION CAMP FILM
The whole world has probably seen the film of the liberation of Belsen concentration camp, it is horrific to say the least. Human skeletons are walking round with dead bodies covering the ground. This film was shown worldwide at the time to show the evil of Nazi Germany. However Belsen was liberated by the Western Allies, and was never alleged to have had any gas chamber or be part of a systematic mass murder programme. The victims are in fact all dying from typhus which is confirmed by German Military, Red Cross and British Military medical records “ this is never pointed out whenever this film is shown. Ironically the deaths were mostly due to a lack of Zyklon-B, at the end of the war with Germany collapsing, leading to a mass typhus outbreak in the camp.
Bergen-Belsen Camp: The Suppressed Story
No images are more emblematic of the Holocaust narrative than of the camp at Bergen-Belsen “ or more accurately, of its liberation by the British in April 1945.
We’ve all seen the pictures “ the naked, emaciated bodies being bull-dozed into open pits by cigarette-smoking British Tommies “ and these pictures themselves have become emblematic of the Holocaust.
Yet Belsen never was an extermination camp. Well, there’s nothing noteworthy about that “ nor was anywhere else. But what is noteworthy is that this fact is widely, even universally, accepted, even by mainstream Holocaust ˜historians’.
But still Belsen’s iconic Holocaust status persists. You can explain away till you’re blue in the face and still their heads will wave slowly from side to side in horrified wonder “ the pictures! The pictures!
BILLY WILDER AND BUCHENWALD
Billy Wilder was born in 1906 in Poland to a Jewish family. After high school he went to Berlin as a journalist, then screenwriter; in 1933 he moved on to Hollywood where he became highly successful. In 1945, he directed a propaganda film Death Mills (Die Todesmühlen in German), for the Psychological Warfare Dept. of the US Department of War. Intended to be shown first to German audiences, its purpose was to indoctrinate them to believe that the wildest “atrocities” imaginable had been committed by the National Socialist regime and the SS.
Within a week of the capture of Buchenwald, the famous Hollywood director Billy Wilder was in the camp making a film of propaganda lies that still circulate to this day. An inadvertent shot of Wilder on the set at Buchenwald is shown above. The film, complete with props, claimed that the Nazis made soap from the fat of (Jewish only of course) prisoners, made lampshades from the skin of prisoners, and shrunk the heads of prisoners like in the Amazon. Even the Holohoax establishment now admits these were all lies.
THE OFFICIAL SOVIET REPORT ON AUSCHWITZ WAS WRITTEN BY KATYN FRAUDSTERS
Two of the Soviet investigators who compiled the fraudulent report pinning the blame for the 1940 NKVD massacre of 4,000+ Poles at Katyn on the Germans! Also signed the official Soviet report on Auschwitz.
This is an order, dated March 5, 1940, signed by Stalin and Kaganovich to execute Polish army and police officers. One of the results of this was the Katyn Massacre, the shooting of 15,000+ Poles by the Soviet NKVD. When the Germans discovered the mass-graves in early 1943, they invite an international commission consisting of physicians from twelve different countries to inspect the site of the crime and carry out autopsies. At the main Nuremberg trial, the Soviets blamed the Germans for perpetrating the Katyn massacre, and the British, French and Americans, let them do it. The Germans who had “confessed” to the Katyn massacre in 1945 had been tortured into making their statements. The German “confessions” about Katyn reveal the methodology followed by the Soviets in extracting many of the “confessions” upon which the Holocaust storytellers still rely. Under these conditions, it is little wonder that the so-called “Nazi extermination camps” all just happened to be located in the Soviet-controlled parts of Europe, rather than western Europe, which were open to inspection by dissenting inquirers.
The Soviet report which blamed the Germans for committing the Katyn Massacre was listed at Nuremberg as 054-USSR. Evidently this report is a complete pack of lies, fabricated by a pack of liars with an agenda. Two of the liars who signed this report were:
“Member of the Special State Commission, Academic N. N. Burdenko”
“Member of the Special State Commission, Mythropolitos Nikolai”
The official Soviet report on Auschwitz was listed at Nuremberg as 008-USSR. Two of the men who signed this report were:
“The Academic N. N. Burdenko”
“The Mytropolitos Nikolaus”
Some of the most authoritative books on the Holocaust quote from USSR-008, the Soviet report on Auschwitz which was signed by two proven liars.

THE NUREMBERG TRIALS 1945 TO 1949
The Nuremberg Trials were held in the German City of Nuremberg from 1945 to 1949. These Trials were held by the victorious Allies (France, Britain, USA and Soviet Russia) with the Germans as defendants. They were the worst sort of show trials with the main Judge being Nikitchenko, who had presided over Stalin’s show trials of 1936 to 1938 in the Soviet Union. The Court came up with ridiculous findings like Jews being turned into lampshades and even soap, these claims are now discredited and Israel’s Holocaust museum admits they were untrue. The Chief Justice of the United States Harlan Fiske Stone called the Nuremberg trials a fraud. He said “Chief US prosecutor Jackson is away conducting his high-grade lynching party in Nuremberg,” he wrote. “I don’t mind what he does to the Nazis, but I hate to see the pretense that he is running a Court and proceeding according to common law. This is a little too sanctimonious a fraud to meet my old-fashioned ideas.”
Associate Supreme Court Justice William O Douglas charged that the Allies were guilty of “substituting power for principle” at Nuremberg. “I thought at the time and still think that the Nuremberg trials were unprincipled,” he wrote. “Law was created ex post facto to suit the passion and clamor of the time.”
President John F Kennedy in his book, Profiles in Courage, criticised Nuremberg as a show trial.
Proponents of the official storyline say that some of the strongest evidence that “proves” the Holocaust ”i.e. the systematic extermination of 6 million Jews in gas chambers on the instructions of Hitler ”consists of the supposed “confessions” of the German officials who were put on trial at Nuremberg. What they neglect to tell you is that these confessions were obtained under extreme torture.
According to Judge Edward L. Van Roden’s book American Atrocities in Germany, out of 139 cases of treatment of alleged German “war criminals” that were investigated by the commission (who were put on trial by the American Military Tribunal in Dachau after World War II), 137 were tortured by having their testicles crushed.
Other methods used by the American interrogators included brutal beatings, placing a hood over the prisoner and punching them in the face with brass knuckles, breaking jaws, knocking out teeth, starvation rations, and solitary confinement. The prisoners were then presented with prepared statements to sign, “confessing” to various crimes.

Nuremberg and other War Crimes Trials by Richard Harwood
https://archive.org/details/Nuremberg_and_other_Trials
Very few of those who glibly refer to “all the Nuremberg evidence” as proof for the Holocaust extermination story are familiar with either the real nature of this “evidence” or the character of these trials. On closer examination, solid documentary or forensic evidence of a wartime German policy to exterminate Europe’s Jews proves to be elusive. As we have seen, the evidence that has been presented consists largely of extorted confessions, spurious testimonies, and fraudulent documents. The postwar Nuremberg trials were politically motivated proceedings meant more to discredit the leaders of a defeated regime than to establish truth. We do not need trials or “confessions” to prove that the Katyn massacre or the postwar deportation of Germans from eastern and central Europe actually took place. By comparison, the Holocaust story does not claim just a few isolated massacres, but a vast extermination program taking place across the European continent over a three-year period involving several governments and millions of people. The fact that the Holocaust story must rely so heavily on highly dubious testimony evidence and trials staged in a historically unparalleled atmosphere of hysteria, intimidation and propaganda demonstrates its inherent weakness.
How many people know that at Nuremberg the Germans were accused of, along with killing about six million Jews:
â— vaporizing 20,000 Jews near Auschwitz with “atomic energy”;
â— killing 840,000 Russian POW’s at Sachsenhausen concentration camp (in one month, with special pedal-driven brain-bashing machines, no less), then disposing of them in mobile [sic] crematoria;
â— torturing and killing Jewish prisoners to the tempo of a specially composed “Tango of Death” in Lvov;
â— steaming Jews to death like lobsters at Treblinka;
â— electrocuting them en masse at Belzec;
â— making not only lampshades and soap but also handbags, driving gloves, book bindings, saddles, riding breeches, gloves, house slippers, etc. from the remains of their victims;
â—killing prisoners and concentration camp inmates for everything from having armpit hair to soiled underclothing?
Each of these grotesque claims is on display in Carlos Porter’s book Made in Russia: The Holocaust, reproduced just as it appears in the Nuremberg volumes.
PRIME PROSECUTION WITNESS DR. WILHELM HOETTL
The German policeman, Gestapo agent, Dr. Wilhelm Hoettl, was the prime Prosecution witness at the Allies’ Nuremberg Tribunal and as such is the source of the allegation that the Germans murdered six million Jews during the course of the Second World War. Hoettl’s claim was accepted at the Allies’ Nuremberg trial on face value, and without any further attempt undertaken of an independent, objective, forensic examination of the charge, that the the Germans had committed a crime of such mass-murder.
At a later date, after the hysteria of the war-years had abated somewhat, the U.S. officials responsible for handling their witness-agent, Wilhelm Hoettl, had time to reflect on the character of their prime prosecution witness. Let us be clear here: had Hoettl not played the role allotted to him at Nuremberg, then without doubt he would have suffered the same fate as many of his erstwhile colleagues: the hangman’s noose.
Many years later, the reports of U.S. Intelligence agents relating to these events were made public. Herewith their confidential opinion of the said Dr. Wilhelm Hoettl:
“Upon his arrest in May 1945, Hoettl played to the interests of his captors ¦”
“Dr. Wilhelm Hoettl is a fabricator of intelligence information. His reports normally consist of a fine cobweb of fact, heavily padded with lies, conjecture and other false information.”
“a man of such low character and poor political record that his use for intelligence activities, regardless of how profitable they may be, is a short-sighted policy by the U.S.”
The prime Prosecution witness and source of the six million allegation revealed, at last, as such a “low character, dealing in lies, deceit conjecture and other false types of information”, that his use by the U.S., regardless of “how profitable it may be, is a short-sighted policy.”
Of the truth revealed, one can only say: Better late then never.
For the revelations of Hoettl’s true character, see the Journal of Historical Review, of September-December 2001, Vol 20, no.5-6, pages 25-32.
GAS CHAMBER EVIDENCE?
At the Nuremberg Trial the existence of gas chambers was not established by physical and technical evidence that is normally required in any criminal trial. Articles 19 and 21 of the Statute of the Court dispensed the charge of this constraint. The alleged gas chambers were neither studied or even described. Most of the crimes the Germans were accused of were ˜documented’ by reports from mainly a ˜Special State Commission’ Soviet which wrote the reports before 1946 in the USSR. These “documents” had value of ˜evidence’ under Article 21 of the Statute of the Tribunal. The official historians who then wrote about the Nazi period took no rigorous research that was finally able to remedy the shortcomings of Nuremberg and finally prove beyond doubt the existence of these famous weapons of mass murder. This apparent lack of interest on this issue has extended until today. Thus, in the vast literature devoted to the Holocaust, there is nothing concrete in addition to the two items by Jean-Claude Pressac, which were quickly demolished by Robert Faurisson and by revisionist scientists Germar Rudolph and Carlo Mattogno. No comprehensive analysis or expertise on weapons of the most monstrous crime in the history of mankind was undertaken on the premises that housed these murderous rooms and the ruins of which still remain.
The four documents which “prove” Nazis gassings
American Revisionist Samuel Crowell (a pseudonym) in his excellent 2011 book ˜The Gas Chamber of Sherlock Holmes’, writes how the Allies presented just four German documents at the Nuremberg Trials to prove the Nazis gassed people. And those were all mistranslated or completely out of context.
http://winstonsmithministryoftruth.blogspot.co.uk/2011/10/four-documents-which-prove-nazis.html
No real evidence for the gas chambers, experts admit
Many of the leading scholars of the Holocaust have stated on record, that the actual evidence to prove the Nazis operated homicidal gas chambers, is virtually non-existent. Following are a few of their admissions of this fact:

THE TORTURE AND “CONFESSION” OF AUSCHWITZ COMMANDANT RUDOLF Hà–SS
No evidence is more supportive of the Holocaust hoax than the statements or “confessions” of Rudolf Hoess, the former camp commandant of Auschwitz-Birkenau. The reasons such “confessions” were not only important but essential for Allied prosecutors was that they had no real evidence for their monstrous claims; they had no autopsies, or documents, or even any credible theory as to how crimes of such magnitude could have been committed. By comparison, getting confessions was childishly easy.
In his memoirs written during the final months of his life while in Polish captivity awaiting his execution, former Auschwitz commander Rudolf Hoess wrote that he had been severely mistreated by his British captors right after the end of the war. “I was treated terribly by the [British] Field Security Police. ¦ During the first interrogation they beat me to obtain evidence. I do not know what is in the transcript, or what I said, even though I signed it, because they gave me liquor and beat me with a whip. It was too much even for me to bear. ¦ Minden on the Weser River ¦ there they treated me even more roughly, especially the first British prosecutor, who was a major. ¦ I was for all intents and purposes psychologically dissected. ¦ They also left me with no doubt whatsoever what was going to happen to me.”
The confirmation that the former Commandant of Auschwitz concentration camp, Rudolf Hoess, was tortured and beaten almost to the point of death by his British Army captors, in order to extract from him the admission of multi-million mass-murder, which was then presented at the victorious Allies’ Nuremberg Tribunal as “proof of the Holocaust” can be read in the book, Legions of Death, written by Rupert Butler, and published by Hamlyn Books, London, U.K., 1983; pages 234 to 238.
In any proper court of law, confessions obtained under torture have no probative value.
In 1983, author Rupert Butler, notable for his other books namely Hand of Steel, The Black Angels and Gestapo (published by Hamlyn) wrote an anti Nazi book entitled Legions of Death. For this book, Rupert Butler researched materials available at prestigious institutions including the Imperial War Museum in London, the Institute for Contemporary History and Wiener Library.
At the beginning of Legions of Death, Rupert Butler expresses his gratitude to two persons, one of whom being British officer of Jewish origin by the name of Bernard Clarke. Bernard Clarke is notable for being the person who captured Rudolf Höss. Numerous written or recorded statements by Bernard Clarke are quoted throughout Legions of Death. Because Legions of Death an anti Nazi book, Rupert Butler did not try to take a critical stance against Bernard Clarke who expressed pride in having tortured a Nazi. Little did the two know that by doing that, they would ultimately confirm what everybody knew all along, but nobody had first-hand account of “ that Rudolf Höss’ testimony was extracted by torture, that the job of the interrogators was to secure German guilt before the Nuremburg trials, that all those false and self-incriminating statements German POWs signed had been presented to them by their captors in finished form, only after they were broken down with the use of thorough psychological and physical torture.
Quote from the book (commandant’s last name is spelled Hoess instead of Höss):
The prisoner was torn from the top bunk, the pyjamas ripped from his body. He was dragged naked to one of the slaughter tables, where it seemed to Clarke the blows and screams were endless. Eventually the Medical Officer urged the Captain: ˜Call them off, unless you want to take back a corpse.’ A blanket was thrown over Hoess and he was dragged to Clarke’s car, where the sergeant poured a substantial slug of whisky down his throat. Then Hoess tried to sleep. Clarke thrust his service stick under the man’s eyelids and ordered in German: ˜Keep your pig eyes open, you swine.’ The first time Hoess trotted out his oft-repeated justification: “I took my orders from Himmler. I am a soldier in the same way as you are a soldier and we had to obey orders.” The party arrived back at Heide around three in the morning. The snow was swirling still, but the blanket was torn from Hoess and he was made to walk completely nude through the prison yard to his cell. It took three days to get a coherent statement out of him. But once he started talking, there was no holding him.
He was beaten so badly it took three days for him to regain coherent speech again? Interesting, because considering that he had been captured on March 11, 1946 (look up any source for confirmation of this date), his captors must have used the time while he was incapacitated to produce the 8 page statement in German and as soon as Rudolf Höss recovered well enough to hold a pen, at 2:30 in the morning on either March 14 or 15 (the dates I told you to remember earlier), while he was still quivering from inhuman torture his captors had subjected him to, he signed whatever it was they handed him to sign. And by signing it, Rudolf Höss ultimately sealed his fate. Anyone would have, though. They had just beaten him so bad, the doctor had to stop them or else he would have died. The same people were drooling for more, if only he had given them a reason to. This, however was just the beginning of his long way through torture to death by hanging.
As Bernard Clarke said in the quote above: ¦once he started talking, there was no stopping him. That sounds very much as: I’ll sing. I’ll say whatever you want me to say. Do you want me to say I gassed 2.5 Million people? I’ll do that. After you crushed my balls yesterday, I’ll say I gassed 50 Million people if you like that number better ¦
“Certainly, I signed a statement that I killed two and a half million Jews. But I could just as well have said that it was five million Jews. There are certain methods by which any confession can be obtained, whether it is true or not.” “ Rudolp Hoess, March 31 “ April 1, 1946

The post-war confession of Rudolf Höss, as well as others are known to be false statements obtained by torture. Several confessions, written out in English, were signed by German officers, though they didn’t speak or write a word of English.

“CONFESSIONS” UNDER TORTURE
The Allies used extremely brutal torture against their German prisoners, not just during the war, but afterward, to force them to provide fraudulent confessions to crimes they never committed ”all to get convictions at war crime trials. The subject is well known to Revisionists, but the facts have been suppressed by the mainstream for more than 65 years and few people outside of this circle are aware of it.
The American Senator, Joseph McCarthy, in a statement given to the American Press on May 20th, 1949, drew attention to the following cases of torture to secure such confessions. In the prison of the Swabisch Hall, he stated, officers of the S.S. Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler were flogged until they were soaked in blood, after which their sexual organs were trampled on as they lay prostrate on the ground. As in the notorious Malmedy Trials of private soldiers, the prisoners were hoisted in the air and beaten until they signed the confessions demanded of them. On the basis of such “confessions” extorted from S.S. Generals Sepp Dietrich and Joachim Paiper, the Leibstandarte was convicted as a “guilty organisation”. S.S. General Oswald Pohl, the economic administrator of the concentration camp system, had his face smeared with faeces and was subsequently beaten until he supplied his confession.
In dealing with these cases, Senator McCarthy told the Press: “I have heard evidence and read documentary proofs to the effect that the accused persons were beaten up, maltreated and physically tortured by methods which could only be conceived in sick brains. They were subjected to mock trials and pretended executions, they were told their families would be deprived of their ration cards. All these things were carried out with the approval of the Public Prosecutor in order to secure the psychological atmosphere necessary for the extortion of the required confessions. If the United States lets such acts committed by a few people go unpunished, then the whole world can rightly criticise us severely and forever doubt the correctness of our motives and our moral integrity.” The methods of intimidation described were repeated during trials at Frankfurt-am-Mein and at Dachau, and large numbers of Germans were convicted for atrocities on the basis of their admissions.
The American Judge Edward L. van Roden, one of the three members of the Simpson Army Commission which was subsequently appointed to investigate the methods of justice at the Dachau trials, revealed the methods by which these admissions were secured in the Washington Daily News, January 9th, 1949. His account also appeared in the British newspaper, the Sunday Pictorial, January 23rd, 1949. The methods he described were: “Posturing as priests to hear confessions and give absolution; torture with burning matches driven under the prisoners finger-nails; knocking out of teeth and breaking jaws; solitary confinement and near starvation rations.” Van Roden explained: “The statements which were admitted as evidence were obtained from men who had first been kept in solitary confinement for three, four and five months ¦ The investigators would put a black hood over the accused’s head and then punch him in the face with brass knuckles, kick him and beat him with rubber hoses ¦ All but two of the Germans, in the 139 cases we investigated, had been kicked in the testicles beyond repair. This was standard operating procedure with our American investigators.”
The American investigators responsible (and who later functioned as the prosecution in the trials) were: Lt.-Col. Burton F. Ellis (chief of the War Crimes Committee) and his assistants, Capt. Raphael Shumacker, Lt. Robert E. Byrne, Lt. William R. Perl, Mr. Morris Ellowitz, Mr. Harry Thon, and Mr. Kirschbaum. The legal adviser of the court was Col. A. H. Rosenfeld. The reader will immediately appreciate from their names that the majority of these people were “biased on racial grounds” in the words of Justice Wenersturm “ that is, were Jewish, and therefore should never have been involved in any such investigation. Despite the fact that “confessions” pertaining to the extermination of the Jews were extracted under these conditions, Nuremberg statements are still regarded as conclusive evidence for the Six Million by writers like Reitlinger and others, and the illusion is maintained that the Trials were both impartial and impeccably fair. When General Taylor, the Chief Public Prosecutor, was asked where he had obtained the figure of the Six Million, he replied that it was based on the confession of S.S. General Otto Ohlendorf. He, too, was tortured and his case is examined below. But as far as such “confessions” in general are concerned, we can do no better than quote the British Sunday Pictorial when reviewing the report of Judge van Roden: “Strong men were reduced to broken wrecks ready to mumble any admission demanded by their prosecutors.”
http://www.ihr.org/books/harwood/dsmrd03.html
Reports of widespread torture at the postwar American-run “war crimes” trials at Dachau leaked out, resulting in so many protests that a formal investigation was eventually carried out. A US Army Commission of inquiry consisting of Pennsylvania Judge Edward van Roden and Texas Supreme Court Judge Gordon Simpson officially confirmed the charges of gross abuse. German defendants, they found, were routinely tortured at Dachau with savage beatings, burning matches under fingernails, kicking of testicles, months of solitary confinement, and threats of family reprisals. Low ranking prisoners were assured that their “confessions” would be used only against their former superiors in the dock. Later, though, these hapless men found their own “confessions” used against them when they were tried in turn. High ranking defendants were cynically assured that by “voluntarily” accepting all responsibility themselves they would thereby protect their former subordinates from prosecution.
One Dachau trial court reporter was so outraged at what was happening there in the name of justice that he quit his job. He testified to a US Senate subcommittee that the “most brutal” interrogators had been three German-born Jews. Although operating procedures at the Dachau trials were significantly worse than those used at Nuremberg, they give some idea of the spirit of the “justice” imposed on the vanquished Germans.
Virtually all of the US investigators who brought cases before American military courts at Dachau were “Jewish refugees from Germany” who “hated the Germans,” recalled Joseph Halow, a US Army court reporter at the Dachau trials in 1947. “Many of the investigators gave vent to their hated by attempting to force confessions from the Germans by treating them brutally,” including “severe beatings.”
The case of Gustav Petrat, a German who had served as a guard at the Mauthausen, was not unusual. After repeated brutal beatings by US authorities, he broke down and signed a perjured statement. He was also whipped and threatened with immediate shooting. Petrat was prevented from securing exonerating evidence, and even potential defense witnesses were beaten and threatened to keep them from testifying. After a farcical trial by a US military court at Dachau, Petrat was sentenced to death and hanged in late 1948. He was 24 years old.

James J. Weingartner, the author of A Peculiar Crusade: Willis M. Everett and the Malmedy Massacre, wrote the story of the Dachau proceedings from information provided by Everett’s family and gleaned from his letters and diary. According to Weingartner, shortly before the proceedings were to begin, defense attorney Lt. Col. Everett interviewed a few of the 73 accused with the help of an interpreter. Although the accused were being held in solitary confinement and had not had the opportunity to consult with each other, most of them told identical stories of misconduct by their Jewish interrogators.
Benjamin Ferencz, Jewish lead U.S. prosecutor at the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunals in 1945 and 1947: “We did not have a regular courtroom where to call witnesses and question them, with a secretary present and someone who did the cross-examination or that would guarantee their rights. We collected statements from witnesses that we considered favorable and they would write an affidavit. And then they had to swear it in front of an officer. If it was from a hostile witness we would interrogate him privately to see if we could determine the truth. And when we reached the point where we felt we had ascertained the truth, we asked him to write in his own hand and sign it; then usually brought in an officer to witness that.”

Jewish Intelligence Officer Arnold Weiss: “How did you do it?” I ask Weiss. “The kapos,” he explains, “that’s where we got the idea. We had seen what the DPs (displaced persons) did to the kapos, and we realized they could do us a favor. We studied up a little on military law, and there was nothing on the books preventing us from delivering suspects for additional debriefing to the DPs,” Weiss recalls. He says he’s not sure where the idea originated, who first put it into motion, or how widespread it was. “Whoever first came up with this, I honestly don’t know. I don’t think they’d own up to it anyway.”
While it was perfectly legal under military law to hand over suspects for further questioning to DPs, says Benjamin Ferencz, who was a lead U.S. prosecutor at the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunals in 1945 and 1947, knowingly delivering suspects for execution was not. And of course the DPs were not interested in extracting information.
Benjamin Ferencz: “I once saw DPs (displaced persons) beat an SS man and then strap him to the steel gurney of a crematorium. They slid him in the oven, turned on the heat and took him back out. Beat him again, and put him back in until he was burnt alive. I did nothing to stop it. I suppose I could have brandished my weapon or shot in the air, but I was not inclined to do so. Does that make me an accomplice to murder?”
Lt. William Perl was an Austrian Jew who had emigrated to America in 1940. He was the chief interrogator of Germans accused of the Malmedy massacre. This was because he could speak fluent German; and indeed many of the interrogators at Nuremberg were German or Austrian Jews who had emigrated to America before WWII and were known as the ˜Ritchie Boys’. There were roughly 9000 of these Jews in America and they specialized in the “interrogation” of German prisoners. Perl was an active Zionist who had worked to get European Jews into Palestine illegally before he came to America. Perl was also a good friend and associate of the Zionist Ze’ev Jabotinsky, founder of the murderous Irgun terrorist organization in Israel. Perl supervised the torture of the German defendants. Other Jews on the interrogation staff specalizing in torture techniques at Nuremberg included Josef Kirschbaum, Harry Thon and Morris Ellowitz.
British Postwar Torture Centers
Col. Robin Stephens (pictured left) was in charge of a sadistic torture program during and after WWII, still largely covered up by the British government. Much of the fabricated “evidence” obtained under duress was used as a pretext to convict National Socialist leaders for war crimes.
The London Cage was used partly as a torture centre, inside which large numbers of German officers and soldiers were subjected to systematic ill-treatment. In total 3,573 men passed through the Cage, and more than 1,000 were persuaded to give statements about war crimes. The brutality did not end with the war, moreover: a number of German civilians joined the servicemen who were interrogated there up to 1948.

Hellstorm ” The Death of Nazi Germany, 1944-1947 By Thomas Goodrich

BRITISH INTELLIGENCE SCEPTICAL OF GASSING STORY
In August 1943 the head of the British Psychological Warfare Executive (P.W.E), Victor Cavendish-Bentinck, sent a secret telegram from the Foreign Office to Washington and Moscow saying, “On further reflection we are not convinced that evidence regarding use of gas chambers is substantial enough to justify inclusion in a public declaration ¦,” with an “urgent reply” requested. A copy of this message is kept in the Public Record Office, dated 27 August 1943. On the next day a copy of this telegram was sent to the governments of Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. That seems like a fairly definite policy statement. A letter by Cavendish-Bentinck complained that “The Poles, and to a far larger extent the Jews, tend to exaggerate German atrocities in order to stir us up,” and explained:
“As regards putting Poles to death in gas chambers, I do not believe that there is any evidence that this has been done. There have been many stories to this effect, and we have played them up in P.W.E. rumours without believing that they had any foundation. At any rate there is far less evidence than exists for the mass murder of Polish officers by the Russians at Katyn.”
He added, “I think that we weaken our case against the Germans by publicly giving credence to atrocity stories for which we have no evidence. These mass executions in gas chambers remind me of the story of rendering of human corpses during the last war for the manufacture of fat, which was a grotesque
lie ¦” As a result of this statement, the telegram was sent off from the Foreign Office to Washington the same day, copied to Moscow, requesting that no allusion be made to “gas chambers”.
Cavendish-Bentinck added a handwritten note to William Strang, who as an Assistant Under-Secretary was joint-third in the Foreign Office hierarchy: “I daresay that my minute is too late to be of use but I feel certain that we are making a mistake in publicly giving credence to this gas chambers story.”
In other words, as David Irving rightly observed: “As late as August 1943 the head of the PWE [Psychological Warfare Executive] minuted the Cabinet secretly that despite the stories they were putting out, there was not the slightest evidence that such contraptions existed.” This attitude changed in 1944, when British Intelligence finally came to believe its own atrocity propaganda, as it was recycled back to them through the chaos and fury of war.
