‘It was not long after the liberation of the [Majdanek] camp [in 1944] that the Soviets and their Polish allies began reporting about horrific mass murders which Germans had allegedly committed there.’

The Illuminati Zionists lied that Hiroshima and Nagasaki were necessary for ending the war with Japan (see my review of Eustace Mullins’ Why Hiroshima Was Destroyed). They lied that the attack on Pearl Harbour caught the Americans by surprise. They lied that JFK was murdered by Lee Harvey Oswald and his brother by Sirhan Sirhan. Thy lied that Apollo 11 landed humans on the moon. They lied that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction. They lied that 9/11 was committed by Muslim terrorists. And so on ad nauseam. And yet arguably the greatest lie of all has not yet been recognised as such by so many of the ‘awakened’ – I am thinking of commentators such as David Icke, Mike Adams and Steve Bannon – who blithely invoke the Nazis when discussing genocide such as is happening now in Gaza. The recent pile-on of these supposedly enlightened ones against the Canadian parliament for admitting a Nazi who fought against the communist USSR was disappointing, though not surprising. As General Patton said, the Allies fought against the wrong enemy in WWII. The blindness of these people to the truth of the German concentration camps in the 1940s indicates the consummate success of the Zionist propaganda machine as mediated by Hollywood, the media, artists, politicians, the Tavistock Institute and the Anti-Defamation League.
We can do better, by simply considering the evidence. Data is a key element in critical thinking, and Jurgen Graf and Carlo Mattogno provide a wealth of data in Concentration Camp Majdanek to support their argument that it would have been both historically implausible and technically impossible for the camp to have been used systematically to exterminate Jews, or indeed anyone. In a sane world Majdanek [pronounced ‘May-donek’] would be the first domino to fall, but of course it is not a sane world, but rather one in which double-dealing and lies triumph over openness and truth.
In October 1941 the German occupying forces began to construct the Majdanek concentration camp on the outskirts of the Polish town of Lublin. The camp was to become the largest in Poland, its inmates including Jewish and non-Jewish Polish citizens, prisoners from other nations, and Soviet prisoners of war. Soon after the liberation of the camp in 1944, the Soviets and their Polish allies began spreading tales of the extermination there of 1.7 million Jews. This impossible number has been revised down over the years to under 100,000 (Fig. 1) but the official history of the camp still has it that Jews in great numbers were exterminated by gassing there. This excerpt from a popular anthology of 1983 epitomises the propaganda around Majdanek:
Much like in Auschwitz-if not for quite as long and to as shockingly great an extent as there-the administration of the concentration camp Majdanek near Lublin made use of gas chambers to murder great numbers of people. As soon as these chambers had been installed, the Jews were subjected to selection upon arrival: those who appeared unfit to work were escorted off to be gassed.
From 1933 to 1939 the total number of inmates in the camps – Dachau was the first to be built in 1933 – was small, and included criminals, opponents of the regime, and general undesirables, the most suitable of which were to be re-educated into an appreciation of the Reich. When the war began, an influx of POWs and resistance fighters from occupied countries, and also Jews – there is no doubt that the Nazis wanted to separate them from the general population – caused the camps’ populations to explode. Concomitantly – this is a critical point – the requirement of German males to enlist drained the labour pool, and it was determined that the principal role of the camps would involve, not deprivation of liberty and re-education, but the provision of workers. Jews in particular were detailed to work in the camps. The health of the inmates became paramount. One would think that this circular of December 1942 to all camp commandants from the concentration camp inspector Richard Glück would have destroyed the fraudulent H word narrative forever; but we do not live in sane times:
The First Camp Physicians are to use all means at their disposal to effect a considerable decrease in the mortality figures in the individual camps [...]. The camp physicians are to pay greater attention to the inmates' rations than heretofore, and shall submit proposals for improvements to the camp commandant, in agreement with the administration. These improvements must not remain on paper only, but must be regularly verified by the camp physicians. Further, the camp physicians shall see to it that working conditions at the various work sites are improved as much as possible [...]. The Reichsführer-SS has ordered that mortality absolutely must decrease. [emphasis added]
In fact, the appalling sanitary conditions in the camp for much of its existence, together with supply chain inadequacies and the devastating effects of typhus meant that Glück’s last demand could not be met. Typhus, spread by lice, was raging in Europe at that time, including in the German concentration camps, and it undoubtedly was responsible for a great percentage of the deaths in the camps; hence the necessity for a de-lousing facility in Majdanek, as in all camps and prisons, with Zyklon-B being the pesticide of choice (Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5):
Not only typhus, but also tuberculosis, dysentery and scabies were rife. Many would have seen loved ones enter the camps and never return, but it was not due to gassing, as the rumours that took hold of their imaginations would have had it. Yet eyewitness accounts, which are held to be the least reliable of historiographic sources, inform the entirety of the conventional narrative. A good deal of the eyewitness reports were gathered by the Polish Resistance, which had a vested interest in painting the SS occupiers in the worst possible light. Graf and Mattogno observe that ‘Not so much as one single document gives even the slightest indication that Majdanek was to function as an ‘extermination camp.’ In fact, the documentary evidence leaves no doubt at all that the the camp was to serve an economic agenda.
Another factor undermining the extermination narrative is the complete lack of any attempt at secrecy. There were no rivers or hills between Lublin and the camp, which clearly visible from the town (Fig. 6). Polish civilians working for the construction companies that were tasked with enhancing Majdanek’s productivity, were constantly in the camp. The de-lousing facility, which the fraudsters tried to pass off as an extermination building, was located at the entrance to the camp, as it had to be, as the first necessary step in the induction process.
The sanitary conditions, and general run-down state of the camp, meant that Majdanek never achieved its productivity goals. The authors describe the activities, such as they were, that went on there:
The most significant firms to profit from inmate labor were the fur and clothing manufacturers, the DAW [a German clothing manufacturer], and the Eastern Industries, which the SS established only in March 1943. The clothing manufacturing plants produced clothing and shoes for the soldiers at the eastern front; the DAW maintained the workshops of the Jewish Camp in Lublin, as well as facilities on the grounds of the former airfield; and the Eastern Industries owned workshops on the former airfield where weapons were repaired. Further, their plants manufactured brushes, ammunition baskets, etc. Women had to contribute to this work, as did children.
The authors tantalisingly mention transports of inmates to Auschwitz, where they worked in ‘the buna rubber plants in Monowitz.’ I have argued previously that the sign Arbeit Macht Frei (‘Work makes free’) above the entrance to Auschwitz should be taken at face value. If the future inmates were in a totally captive state, then then the idea that they should have needed to be lulled into a false sense of security is ridiculous.
The inconsistencies in the conventional narrative lie exposed for all to see:
For the moment we [Graf & Mattogno] shall make only a simple, logical objection: If “the desire for extermination was undoubtedly predominant” in Majdanek at least until autumn 1943, it would have been preposterous to build a hospital. It would have been preposterous to reassign inmate doctors from Sachsenhausen, Buchenwald, Dachau, and Auschwitz to Majdanek. It would have been preposterous to set up disinfection facilities and thus to protect the inmates to be exterminated from dying of typhus. It would have been preposterous to send inspectors to Majdanek and have them draw up lengthy reports about the sanitary conditions and about the measures to be taken for their improvement. Finally, it would have been preposterous to allow the Red Cross to distribute the typhus vaccine.
The authors provide detailed architectural and structural information and statistical data to support their arguments. They conclude that the documentary evidence shows that all the gas chambers in the concentration camp Majdanek were built exclusively for sanitary purposes, as disinfestation chambers. This is the exact opposite of the conclusions of the Polish-Soviet Commission in August 1944, the deliberations of which the authors examine in detail.
The Harvest Festival is yet another extermination event for the actual occasion of which there is a complete lack of evidence. On 3-4 Nov 1943, so the propaganda tells us, some 18,000 Jews were exterminated as a security risk in the region of Lublin. There is no doubt that 300 inmates had broken out of the Sobibor camp on 14 Oct, and that three cavalry squadrons had been deployed to deal with it. Yet meeting minutes suggest that Hans Frank, the German Governor General of occupied Poland, regarded any Jewish menace in the region as purely hypothetical. Frank’s diary was scoured at the Nuremberg trials for anything that might incriminate him, to no avail. ‘Frank’s diary contains not even the slightest suggestion of any such enormous mass murder – neither about its order nor about preparations for it, nor about its implementation …’ Finally, the extermination would have made no economic sense whatever, in the context of the dire need for workers. Jews were an essential labour force, as the authors tell us:
According to official historiography the massacre allegedly committed in Majdanek on November 3, 1943, was only one part of a much more comprehensive operation affecting all the camps of the Eastern Industries Ltd. ("Osti") in the General Government …The purpose of the Eastern Industries was to establish a group of SS labor camps in order to make use of the manpower of drafted Jews. In June 1943 the Osti already controlled five camps with a total of 45,000 Jewish workers: the SS labor camps Poniatowa and Trawniki, the SS camp Budzyn, the DAW in Lublin, and the Clothing Manufacturing Plant in Lublin, in addition to the concentration camp Lublin, i.e. Majdanek.
What really happened on 3-4 Nov was probably a transfer of Jewish workers to other camps. The 20 Nov 1943 issue of the Polish newspaper-in exile Dziennik Polski informed their readers that: ‘5,000 Jews were transferred from Majdanek to Cracow, where they were quartered in hundreds of recently constructed barracks. Probably these Jews will have to work in the German factories which have recently been transferred to the Cracow district.’ Harvest Festival was yet another abominable lie perpetrated by the NWO cabal.
Let Graf and Mattogno have the final word:
The concentration camp Majdanek was a place of suffering … The people imprisoned there suffered under catastrophic sanitary conditions, epidemics, at times completely insufficient rations, back-breaking heavy labor, harassment. More than 40,000 Majdanek inmates died, primarily from disease, debilitation and malnutrition; an unknown number was executed … The real victims of Majdanek deserve our respect, just as all victims of war and oppression deserve our respect, regardless what nation they belong to. But we are not doing the dead any service by inflating their number for political and propagandistic reasons and by making utterly unfounded claims about the way they died.
Here is a video on the author’s work on Majdanek which is very much worth watching.
