Back on November 7th I wrote my first post about Holocaust Denial on Trial, or HDoT. Since then I have debunked their claims many times. HDoT isn’t just any run of the mill site. It was created by Professor Deborah E. Lipstadt, a prominent orthodox Holocaust historian and recent appointee as Ambassador to the Office to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism. Emory University is also a part of this project. Does the leadership at Emory know about the intellectual dishonesty that fills the pages of this site? If we were dealing with any other topic this level of academic failure would not be tolerated, but it’s the Holocaust, so it is protected from all criticism.
Today I will address some more excuses for the lack of Prussian Blue in the alleged homicidal gas chambers. Before I begin I would like to point out that the problems of the Leuchter Report are known to the revisionist community. These problems have been addressed and corrected in The Leuchter Reports—Critical Edition. Furthermore, Germar Rudolf in his book, The Chemistry of Auschwitz, presents his extensive research, studies and investigations. As of yet HDoT has exactly zero articles attempting to refute the claims in Rudolf’s book.
Now let’s get down to it. HDoT says that it takes less Zyklon B to kill a human than to kill insects:
And they’re right! Rudolf says this as well:
Sidenote: HDoT only mentions the interior of the delousing chamber, which was protected from the elements. What they fail to mention is that the exterior, which obviously enjoys no protection from the elements, of the delousing buildings are also covered in Prussian Blue staining. As for the longevity of Prussian Blue Rudolf has this to say; “The Iron Blue will remain contained in the wall for as long as the wall itself remains in existence”.
Back to the claim on hand: Does this difference in lethal amount for humans vs. insects account for the lack of Prussian blue in the alleged gas chamber? The image below shows how Prussian Blue, sometimes called Iron Blue, forms in the masonry of walls. Underneath that are the factors that influence the formation. What is not a factor is the concentration of hydrogen cyanide. See pages 181-226 of The Chemistry of Auschwitz for more information about formation and stability of Prussian Blue.
There have also been cases where Prussian Blue staining has occured after only one fumigation with Zyklon B:
Not only do the alleged homicidal gas chambers lack Prussian Blue, but they also lack significant traces of cyanide remnants. The following are the conclusions that Germar Rudolf has come to after his extensive studies:
Through both the misrepresentation and omission of facts HDoT once again fails to live up to the ‘highest degree of integrity’ that Emory University purports to uphold.
