Rudolf Hoess was the Commandant of Auschwitz during the time that the alleged homicidal gas chambers were in use. The details of Hoess’ capture and torture are gleefully recounted in the book, Hanns and Rudolf : the German jew and the hunt for the Kommandant of Auschwitz, by Thomas Harding. Alexander Hanns, the Nazi hunter that the book is about, was a German Jewish refugee.
From Harding’s book we can clearly see that Hoess was severely tortured before giving his confession:
The threat of bodily harm was probably not the only motivation for Hoess to give his confession and to later testify to affirm to what he confessed. From the book, Rudolf Höss, Carlo Mattogno: Commandant of Auschwitz—Rudolf Höss, His Torture and His Forced Confessions, we are given reasons why we can assume that the safety of Hoess’ family had been threatened:
Although coerced confessions are not admissible in American courts Hoess’ confession was used as evidence at the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg and the American presence as the trials made no objections to using such evidence. There are many other examples of how these trails were unethical and illegitimate among those reasons is the fact that there were no neutral parties presiding over the trial.
Given the facts presented the confessions and testimony of Hoess can not be considered valid evidence for the claims made by orthodox Holocaust historians.
Rudolf Hoss was tortured at several points. He also became a sincerely devout Christian at the end of his life. He made several confessions, stories, and detail’s completely unprompted while in comfort. He got no reward for doing so, was not pressured (or even talked to), and did so seemingly out of the blue on many occasions. His letters were written completely by him with 0 prompting at a time when he was treated well. People have been trying to prove Hoss’ confessions have been unreliable for over 70 years. They have failed, because it’s clear they are not. That’s why you’ve limited your “debunking” to such a narrow frame. The only conceivable was Hoss could have been lying was if the Allies broke his brain to such an extent that he became a Manchurian candidate. Hoss’ Christian belief was strong by the end of his life. That is undeniable. He begged Christ for forgiveness for his crimes and the children he killed. Go and ask his surviving family yourself and they will tell you.

He made unprompted confessions in comfort? From a jail cell? lol
He became a devout Christian at the end of his life? Hoess was captured on March 11, 1946 and he was hanged on April 16, 1947. He died at 45. You say ‘end of life’ like he had a long time to reflect upon things. Why didn’t you just say year while he was tortured, interrogated and put on trial?
Hoess’ claims were not only corieced, but they are also absurd and some don’t even jive with the official story. Like a death count of 3 million that he testified during the IMT. He later lowered the death count to 2.5 during his second trial. This alone makes him an unreliable witness. But Holocaust affirmers like to cherry pick from unreliable witnesses because that is the only way your story works. You can cling to the notion that Hoess’ confessions are valid all you want. When given all the facts any reasonable person can see that is not the case.
PS- Here is Hoess’ grandson saying he is the only one that doesn’t deny the Holocaust. https://www.bitchute.com/video/6L9l23GKVZ5h/ (3:16)
It’s common knowledge that Hoss was tortured. But none of these sources say that he was tortured into giving a coerced confession.
Do you understand how coercion works?
It wasn’t a coerced confession. He was just tortured until he gave the right confession 🙂
Lol!
