Witold Pilecki (1901 1948) During World War II, he became the only known person to volunteer to be imprisoned at Auschwitz concentration camp. While there, he organized the resistance movement in the camp, and as early as 1940, informed the Western Allies of Nazi Germany's Auschwitz atrocities. He escaped from the camp in 1943 and took part in the Warsaw Uprising. Executed in 1948 by the communists. Until 1989, information on his exploits and fate was suppressed by the communist regime.

Zyklon B gas is hydrogen cyanide (HCN)

It was acually Cyklon B gas, not cyanide.

You clearly do not understand the difference between solid concrete support pillars and the hollow ones used to drop the gas.

Both KII and KIII have solid, reinforced concrete pillars, not the hollow ones that are claimed.

No I am not joking. The source was you. You provided a stack of references - I picked three at random and none of them referred to Poles being responsible for gas chambers or concentrations camps or anything. I read the Telegraph article and as far as I remember it said nothing of the sort either. I am a serious historian - I check facts to their source and not base them on someone's opinion. I do not have any of these articles to hand so I suggest you say where they are on the net.

Are you joking? see the "Daily Telegraph" wrote about "The Polish concentration camp in Majdanek" in its report on Erna Wallish. The Sun on 16.06.2008 of the article Soaking up atmosphere, The Nazi who sent 100s to death camps written by Brian Flynn, in which under a picture of John Demjanjuk the words Polish gas chambers. World History People and Nations (Holt, Rinehardt&Winston publishing company, 2000) page 729 use of the phrase Polish death camp. More: google.

Well done - you copied this out of Wikipedia. Now take it to the level of the sources and then come back and says that it says here that Poles were responsible. I took out a couple at random and it says nothing of the sort. |
