MOSCOW — President Mikhail S. Gorbachev, seeking to defuse the single biggest issue poisoning relations between the Soviet Union and neighboring Poland, gave Polish President Wojciech Jaruzelski documents Friday that showed that Soviet secret police killed thousands of Polish army officers during World War II and buried them in mass graves in a Russian forest.

IDEAS & TRENDS; Auschwitz Revisionism: An Israeli Scholar’s Case
AT Auschwitz, it is inscribed in stone: four million people died in the Nazi camps. But Yehuda Bauer, one of the foremost historians of the Holocaust and a sworn enemy of those who deny its reality, says that the number of victims was less than half that.
Auschwitz and the Poles fighting the distortions
Israel TV has followed the BBC, the curator of the [Auschwitz] museum, Kazimierz Smolen, and now also Netanel Lorch (The Jerusalem Post, September 3) in falling into the trap of claiming that four million people died in Auschwitz. Indeed, that is the figure engraved in stone in Auschwitz itself, and our Israeli pundits accept it without bothering to check.

‘Instantaneous’ Two-Day-Long Gassings
Found in: Carlo Mattogno, “The First Gassing at Auschwitz: Genesis of a Myth,” The Journal of Historical Review, Vol. 9 number 2.
“3. The Duration of the Gassing
“Rudolf Höss declared that, on the occasion of the first gassing accomplished by his deputy Fritzsch, the Zyklon B provoked ‘the immediate death’ (den sofortigen Tod) of the victims. (fn 20) The article in the Polish Fortnightly Review reports instead that ‘all the prisoners died during the night. All night the rest of the camp was kept awake by the moans and screams originating from the shelter.’ Finally, the Polish Investigation Commission asserts that ‘next afternoon’ some prisoners were still alive, ‘therefore further cyclon was poured out and the doors again tightly closed, to be reopened the next evening, when all the prisoners were dead.’ Therefore, all the victims died immediately, or during the night, or two days later.”

Any normal human being, visiting the Auschwitz camp for the first time, feels a deep emotional shock. The weight of history allows of no other response. An ordinary but motivated tourist, I nearly did away with myself one evening in October 1979 in the main camp, the Stammlager, overwhelmed by the evidence and by despair. […]

Extermination by bear and eagle at Buchenwald
Time ‘Too Painful’ to Remember
The Golden Age Club in the basement of an upper Manhattan synagogue was abuzz with gossip, laughter and the shuffle of cards when the rabbi, himself 79 years old, struck a spoon against a metal ash tray to get everyone’s attention.
In the [Buchenwald] camp there was a cage with a bear and an eagle. Every day they would throw a Jew in there. The bear would tear him apart and the eagle would pick his bones.”

The importance of communication (even for revisionists?)
We [the prisoners of Auschwitz] were able to understand very well, then, that on the great continent of freedom, freedom of communication is an important province. As with health, only the person who loses it realizes its true value. But one does not suffer from it only on an individual level: in countries and epochs in which communication is impeded, soon all other liberties wither; discussion dies by inanition, ignorance of the opinion of others becomes rampant, imposed opinions triumph. The well-known example of this is the crazy genetics preached in the USSR by Lysenko, which in the absence of discussion (his opponents were exiled to Siberia) compromised the harvests for twenty years. Intolerance is inclined to censor, and censorship promotes ignorance of the arguments of others and thus intolerance itself: a rigid, vicious circle that is hard to break.
