In addition to the German Jews who served in the Wehrmacht, there were those Jews who guarded the Jewish ghettos, and then, together with the Germans, Lithuanians and Latvians, destroyed their own brethren.
Moreover, currying favor with the Germans, they showed even greater cruelty to the Jews than the most ...
Frostbitten Balts. Having occupied Poland, the Baltic States, Ukraine and Belarus - the traditional area for the resettlement of Jews, the Germans created ghettos in large cities, to which they moved Jews in order to isolate them from the non-Jewish population.
Unlike ordinary policemen, Jewish policemen received neither rations nor salaries, and therefore the only ways to feed themselves were robbery and extortion.
It's like in that joke - they gave a gun, spin as you want. True, pistols were not issued to ordinary policemen - only the heads of detachments and commandants had them. Rifles were issued to the police only for the duration of the executions.
The Jewish police detachments were quite large. In the Warsaw Ghetto, the Jewish police numbered about 2,500; in the ghetto of the city of Lodz - 1200; in Lviv up to 500 people; in Vilnius up to 250 people.

The head of the Jewish police of the Warsaw ghetto, Jozef Sherinsky, receives a report from the head of one of the detachments, Yakub Leikin. Sherinsky was later caught stealing, and Leikin took his place.
Many Jewish policemen amassed quite decent fortunes on this by the end of the war, but the largest fortunes were made by members and heads of the Judenrats - Jewish self-government bodies created by the Germans, the heads of which most often became kahal elders. Firstly, they took bribes for the right to join the police, and secondly, the policemen brought them a share of the loot. They also took bribes from ordinary Jews for the right to delay sending them to a concentration camp. Thus, the richest Jews, as a rule, survived, and the leadership of the Judenrats not only survived, but became even richer as a result of the war. They stole wherever they could. Even the 229 grams of rations set by the Germans for the Jews, they managed to reduce to 184.
Jewish police armband
When creating the Judenrats, the Germans, as a rule, relied on the top of the kahal. The fact is that since ancient times, each Jewish community had its own kahal - a self-government body that acted as an intermediary between the Jews and the authorities of the state on whose territory this community lived. At the head of the kahal were four elders (roshi); they were followed by "persons of honor" (tuvas). The qahal always had a detachment of the qahal fear led by the shamesh. Having driven the Jews into the ghetto, the Germans simply renamed the kahals into Judenrats, and the shameshs became police chiefs.
Some of the former members of the Jewish police of Vilnius, Kaunas and Siauliai were arrested by the NKVD in the summer of 1944 and convicted of collaborating with the Germans. The same policemen and members of the Judenrats that did not fall into the hands of the NKVD were safely repatriated to Israel, and enjoyed honor and respect there. Their "exploits" were justified even in the Talmud, calling by any means to save at least a drop of Jewish blood. The Jews reasoned as follows: if the policemen had not gone into the service of the Germans, the Germans would have killed them along with the rest of the Jews, and by killing their fellow tribesmen, whom the Germans would have killed anyway, they saved at least part of the Jews from destruction - themselves.

INWehrmacht served 150 thousand Jews
Among the 4 million 126 thousand 964 prisoners of various nationalities taken by us there were 10 thousand 137 Jews.
Are there really such Jews who fought on the side of Hitler.
Imagine, there were many such Jews.
The ban on the admission of Jews to military service was first introduced in Germany on November 11, 1935. However, as early as 1933, the dismissal of Jews who bore officer ranks began. True, many veteran officers of Jewish origin were then allowed to remain in the army at the personal request of Hindenburg, but after his death they were gradually sent off to retire. Until the end of 1938, 238 such officers were escorted from the Wehrmacht. On January 20, 1939, Hitler ordered the dismissal of all Jewish officers, as well as all officers who were married to Jewish women.
However, all these orders were not unconditional, and Jews were allowed to serve in the Wehrmacht with special permits. In addition, the layoffs took place with a creak - each boss of the dismissed Jew zealously argued that his subordinate Jew was indispensable in his place. The Jewish quartermasters held on to their places especially tightly. On August 10, 1940, only in the VII military district (Munich) there were 2269 Jewish officers who served in the Wehrmacht on the basis of a special permit. In all 17 districts, the number of Jewish officers amounted to about 16 thousand people.
For feats in the military field, Jews could be Aryanized, that is, appropriated with German nationality. In 1942, 328 Jewish officers were Aryanized.
Checking for Jewish affiliation was provided only for officers. For the lower rank, only his own assurance was provided that neither he nor his wife were Jews. In this case, it was possible to grow up to a staff sergeant major, but if someone was eager to become an officer, then his origin was carefully checked. There were also those who, upon entering the army, recognized Jewish origin, but they could not get a rank higher than a senior shooter.
It turns out that the Jews sought to join the army in droves, considering it the safest place for themselves in the conditions of the Third Reich. It was not difficult to hide Jewish origin - most German Jews had German names and surnames, and the nationality was not written in the passport.
Checks of ordinary and non-commissioned officers for belonging to the Jews began to be made only after the assassination attempt on Hitler. Such checks covered not only the Wehrmacht, but also the Luftwaffe, the Kriegsmarine, and even the SS. Until the end of 1944, 65 soldiers and sailors, 5 soldiers of the SS troops, 4 non-commissioned officers, 13 lieutenants,
one Untersturmführer, one Obersturmführer of the SS troops, three captains, two majors, one lieutenant colonel - battalion commander in the 213th Infantry Division Ernst Bloch, one colonel and one rear admiral - Karl Kühlenthal. The latter served as a naval attaché in Madrid and carried out assignments for the Abwehr. One of the identified Jews was immediately Aryanized for military merit. The fate of the rest of the documents are silent. It is only known that Kühlenthal, thanks to the intercession of Dönitz, was allowed to retire with the right to wear a uniform.
There is evidence that Grand Admiral Erich Johann Albert Raeder also turned out to be a Jew. His father was a school teacher who converted to Lutheranism in his youth. According to these very data, it was precisely the identified Jewry that became the true reason for the resignation of Raeder on January 3, 1943.
Many Jews called their nationality only in captivity. So, Wehrmacht Major Robert Borchardt, who received the Knight's Cross for a tank breakthrough of the Russian front in August 1941, was captured by the British near El Alamein, after which it turned out that his Jewish father lives in London. In 1944, Borchardt was released to live with his father, but in 1946 he returned to Germany. In 1983, shortly before his death, Borchardt told German schoolchildren: "Many Jews and half-Jews who fought for Germany in World War II believed that they should honestly defend their fatherland by serving in the army."
Another Jewish hero was Colonel Walter Hollander. During the war years, he was awarded the Iron Crosses of both degrees and a rare distinction - the Golden German Cross. In October 1944, Hollander was captured by us, where he declared his Jewishness. He remained in captivity until 1955, after which he returned to Germany and died in 1972.
A very curious case is also known, when for a long time the Nazi press placed on their covers a photograph of a blue-eyed blond in a steel helmet as a standard representative of the Aryan race. However, one day it turned out that Werner Goldberg, placed in these photos, turned out to be not only blue-eyed, but also blue-backed.
Further elucidation of Goldberg's identity revealed that he was also a Jew. Goldberg was fired from the army, and he got a job as a clerk in a company that sews military uniforms. In 1959-79 Goldberg was a member of the West Berlin Chamber of Deputies.
The highest-ranking Nazi Jew is Goering's Deputy Inspector General of the Luftwaffe, Field Marshal Erhard Milch. In order not to discredit Milch in the eyes of ordinary Nazis, the party leadership stated that Milch's mother did not have sex with her Jewish husband, and Erhard's true father was Baron von Beer. Goering laughed for a long time about this: "Yes, we made Milch a bastard, but an aristocratic bastard."
On May 4, 1945, Milch was caught by the British at Sicherhagen Castle on the Baltic coast and was sentenced to life imprisonment by a military court. In 1951, the term was reduced to 15 years, and by 1955, he was released ahead of schedule.
Some of the captured Jews died in Soviet captivity and, according to the official position of the Israeli National Holocaust and Heroism Memorial Yad Vashem, are considered victims of the Holocaust.

Introduction
In the literature devoted to the results of the 2nd World War, various figures of losses suffered by the peoples of one or another country participating in this war were reported. But little is said about them, although the main losses were from the Russians and Germans.
With the beginning of the notorious perestroika, and especially in recent times, more and more often the emphasis is on the loss of Jews, although not only not a single Jewish division, but even a company participated in the hostilities either from Germany or from Russia.
In this regard, it suffices to recall that on the Soviet-German front, Czechoslovak corps, Polish division, French squadron "Normandie-Niemen".
World Jewry, or as it was then called "international" did not form a single Jewish military unit. Having unleashed a war, it watched the unfolding events in anticipation of “who will take it”. In order to strike at exhausted opponents and seize the wealth of both the winner and the vanquished. This policy has paid off. First, they gutted Germany, and now they are gutting Russia, taking out not only oil, gas, timber, gold, diamonds, but even land from the black earth regions of Russia.
It is claimed that the loss of Jews in the 2nd World War amounted to 6 million Human.
According to the new Jewish terminology that appeared in the press during the years of perestroika and came to us from the USA, this is called the “Holocaust”.
For anyone uninitiated in this story, the question arises: where did this figure come from - 6 million, and not 3 or 4 million?
After all, there is still no documentary evidence confirming such colossal losses of Jews!
There was also no commission that, out of the whole mass of people of other nationalities who died during the war, would identify only Jews and scrupulously, by surname, would count them.
Moreover, not all the same 6 million Jews were killed in gas chambers, hanged or shot! Some still part died of natural causes, like other prisoners.
It is unlikely that the number of Jews imprisoned in German concentration camps exceeded the number of prisoners in other countries combined.
It is also unlikely that among those driven by the Germans for forced labor in Germany, there were more Jews than others.
So, there is already reason to doubt this figure.
How the myth of the Holocaust was born
In search of 6 million victims of the Holocaust, I decided to look through the 1945 Pravda newspaper. In the published orders of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief I. V. Stalin, the settlements liberated or taken by the troops of one or another front were reported. In the offensive zone of our troops in Poland, there were well-known German concentration camps, but not a word about them.
On January 18, Warsaw was liberated, and on January 27, Soviet troops entered Auschwitz. An editorial in Pravda dated January 28 entitled “The Great Offensive of the Red Army” reported: “During the January offensive, Soviet troops occupied 25,000 settlements, including liberated about 19,000 Polish towns and villages.” If Auschwitz was a city (as indicated in the Great Soviet Encyclopedia) or a large settlement, then why were there no reports about it in the Sovinformburo reports for January 1945? If such a massive extermination of Jews had really been recorded in Auschwitz, then the newspapers of the whole world, and the Soviet newspapers in the first place, would have reported such monstrous atrocities of the Germans.
Moreover, the first deputy head of the Sovinformburo at that time was a Jew, Solomon Abramovich Lozovsky.
But the newspapers were silent.
Only on February 2, 1945, the first article about Auschwitz flashed in Pravda under the title “Death Plant in Auschwitz”. Its author, Pravda's correspondent during the war, was a Jew, Boris Polevoy.
There is a well-known rule for all journalists - to write the truth about what they see. But this rule did not apply to the Jew B. Polevoy (real name Kampov), he lied: “The Germans in Auschwitz covered up the traces of their crimes. They blew up and destroyed traces of the electric conveyor, where hundreds of people were simultaneously killed by electric current.” Even if no traces are found, then electric conveyor had to be invented. In the documents of the Nuremberg trials, the use of electric conveyors by the Germans was not confirmed.
Keep on fantasizing B. Field imperceptibly, as if casually, in passing, threw in the text and gas chambers: “Special mobile devices for killing children have been taken to the rear. The gas chambers on the east side of the camp have been rebuilt with turrets and architectural decorations to make them look like garages.”. How B. Polevoy (not an engineer) was able to guess that there were gas chambers instead of garages is unknown. And when the Germans managed to rebuild the gas chambers into garages, if according to the testimony of other "eyewitnesses" - Jews, the gas chambers worked continuously, until the arrival of Soviet troops in Auschwitz.
So for the first time thanks to B. Polevoy, began to be mentioned in the Soviet press gas chambers.
The task that B. Polevoi set (as did his fellow tribesman Ilya Ehrenburg, by the way) is quite obvious - to increase the readers' hatred of the Germans: “But the worst thing for the prisoners of Auschwitz was not death itself. German sadists, before killing the prisoners, starved them to death and cold, 18-hour work, brutal punishments. They showed me the leather-covered steel bars used to beat the prisoners.”. Why should steel bars be “upholstered” with leather, to anyone who read this note by B. Polevoy almost sixty years ago, just not clear.
Further, B. Polevoy fantasizes, not limited to gas chambers and electric conveyors, in order to further show the bestial appearance of the Germans, he listed: “I saw massive rubber batons, with the handle of which the prisoners were beaten on the head and on the genitals. I saw benches where people were beaten to death. I saw a specially designed oak chair on which the Germans broke the backs of prisoners.” Surprisingly, there is not a word about the number of Jews killed in this death camp. And the Russians too.
B. Polevoy, as a journalist, did not even ask about the ethnic composition of the prisoners, how many of them were left alive, and did not try to interview any of the prisoners of Auschwitz, among whom there were many Russians.
If this camp was so terrible and several million people allegedly died in it, most of whom were Jews, then this fact could be exaggerated as widely as possible.
But B. Polevoy's note went unnoticed, it did not evoke any response from readers.
Of interest is another note by B. Polevoy dated February 18, 1945, entitled “Underground Germany”. It spoke of one underground military factory built by the hands of prisoners: “The account of prisoners was strict. None of the builders of the underground arsenals should have escaped death.” As you can see, there was a record of prisoners, which contradicts the statements of other Jewish propagandists who deliberately rounded the number of victims in a particular camp to four or five zeros (see articles about concentration camps in the Great Soviet Encyclopedia).
Newspapers reported on the crimes of the German invaders in the occupied territories. So, for example, in Pravda of April 5, 1945, a message was placed by the Extraordinary State Commission for the Establishment and Investigation of the Atrocities of the Germans in the Territory of Latvia. Appears figure killed 250 thousand civilians in Latvia, of which 30 thousand were Jews. If this is true, then the 30,000 murdered Jews in the largest Baltic republic suggests that the total number of victims among the Jewish population of the Baltic states differs sharply from those given in Jewish sources.
On April 6, 1945, an article appeared in Pravda with the title "Investigation of the German atrocities in Auschwitz." It said that on April 4 in Krakow, in the building of the Court of Appeal, the first meeting of the commission investigating German atrocities in Auschwitz was held, which will collect documents, material evidence and interrogate captured Germans and escaped prisoners of Auschwitz, organize a technical and medical examination. It was reported that the commission included prominent lawyers, scientists and public figures of Poland. For some reason, the names of the members of the commission were not called.
And on April 14, in the same Pravda, a message appeared that the Commission had allegedly begun work. “The commission visited Auschwitz and established that in Auschwitz the Nazi villains blew up gas chambers and crematoria, but this destruction of the means of killing people is not such that it would be impossible to restore the full picture. The commission established that there were 4 crematoria in the camp, in which the corpses of prisoners who had previously been gassed were burned daily. In special gas chambers, the poisoning of victims usually lasted 3 minutes. However, to be sure, the cells remained closed for another 5 minutes, after which the bodies were thrown out. The bodies were then burned in crematoria. The number of those burnt in the Auschwitz crematoria is estimated at over 4.5 million people. The commission, however, will determine a more accurate figure for those who have been placed in the camp.” An article by an unknown TASS correspondent from Warsaw did not report on the number of gas chambers, or where the gas was supplied from, how many people were placed in the gas chambers, and how the corpses were pulled out of them if poison gas remained in the chambers. It was not reported how in such a short time (the commission worked for one day!) The figure of 4.5 million people killed was established, what it consisted of and what documents the commission relied on when counting. It is strange that the "commission" forgot to count the number of dead Jews.
However, a check of the reports of the Polish Press Agency - the main source of information for newspapers, radio and government agencies in Poland - shows that there were no such reports in the Polish press. Just as there was no TASS correspondent office in Poland, which had just been liberated from the Germans. B. Polevoy in his first note reported that the gas chambers were rebuilt into garages, and here they were blown up. The wording that “the destruction of the means of killing people is not such that it would be impossible to restore the full picture” also looks strange, unconvincing. Such formulations are typical for those who want to hide the truth. Apparently, this note was prepared not without the participation of B. Polevoy.
Here it is appropriate to mention such a fact.
In the Great Soviet Encyclopedia, in an article about Poland (vol. 20, p. 29x), it is said that St. 3.5 million people.
This is how the myth of the Holocaust was born.
Even then, in April 1945, long before the Nuremberg trials, lies were introduced into the minds of millions of readers of Pravda.
The apotheosis of the lie was an extensive article in Pravda dated May 7, 1945 entitled “The monstrous crimes of the German government in Auschwitz” (no author credit).
From “Polish” sources, the number of victims is “over 4.5 million.” people migrated to the central party body, where it was brought to the figure of “over 5 million.”
The article has been overgrown with new details:
“Every day 3-5 echelons with people arrived here and every day 10-12 thousand people were killed in gas chambers, and then burned.”
It is not necessary to determine a lie when reading this, at first glance, sensational article: “In 1941, the first crematorium with 3 furnaces was built to burn corpses. The crematorium had a gas chamber to suffocate people. It was the only one and lasted until the middle of 1943.” It is not clear how such a crematorium with 3 furnaces could burn 9 thousand corpses monthly (300 corpses per day) for two years. For comparison, let's say that the largest in Moscow Nikolo-Arkhangelsk crematorium with 14 furnaces burns about 100 corpses daily.
Quoting further, “By the beginning of 43 years, 4 new crematoria were delivered, in which there were 12 furnaces with 46 retorts. From 3 to 5 corpses were placed in each retort, the burning process of which lasted about 20-30 minutes. At the crematoria, gas chambers were built to kill people, placed either in basements or in special annexes to the crematoria. The word “or” immediately provokes protest. If the gas chambers were located in “basements”, then what kind of basements were these that could accommodate thousands of people? If in “special outbuildings”, then how was their tightness ensured so that the gas would not escape from them. In order for the reader to imagine what such “outbuildings” were supposed to be like, let’s say that the Palace of Congresses in Moscow can accommodate 5,000 people.
Realizing that it was impossible to burn such a huge number of corpses in additionally built crematoria, an unknown author reported another “news”:“The productivity of gas chambers exceeded the productivity of crematoria, and therefore the Germans used huge bonfires to burn corpses. In Auschwitz, the Germans killed 10-12 thousand people daily. Of these, 8-10 thousand from the arriving echelons and 2-3 thousand from among the prisoners of the camp. However, simple calculations show that 140-170 wagons are required daily to transport 10-12 thousand people (railway wagons of that time could carry about 70 people). In conditions when the Germans suffered one defeat after another, the supply of such a number of wagons over the course of 4 years of the existence of the camp is unlikely. Germany did not have enough wagons to transport military equipment and ammunition to the front line. This became especially felt after the Battle of Stalingrad and Kursk in the summer of 1943.
The author of the article did not take into account such an indisputable fact. To burn a human corpse in a crematorium oven until ash forms, it takes not less than 20-30 minutes, but at least 1.5 hours. And in the open air, it takes even more time to completely burn the corpse. For example, we were told how the Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, who was killed by terrorists, was burnt at the stake, according to Indian traditions. The body burned for almost a day. If coal was used in crematoria, then it is simply impossible to burn a human corpse with such fuel until ash forms in 20-30 minutes.
An article in Pravda reports that they were interviewed 2819 rescued prisoners of Auschwitz, among whom were representatives of different countries, including 180 Russians. But for some reason, the testimony came exclusively from Jewish prisoners.“They drove 1,500-1,700 people into the gas chambers,” said Dragon Shlema, a resident of the town of Zhirovin in the Warsaw province. - “The killing lasted from 15 to 20 minutes. After that, the corpses were unloaded and taken out on trolleys into the ditches, where they were burned. The names of other “witnesses” are also listed: Gordon Yakov, Georg Katman, Shpater Ziska, Berthold Epstein, David Suris and others. The article does not say when the survey was conducted and by whom. And why are there no testimonies of prisoners from other countries. By all laws of jurisprudence, the testimony of witnesses must be verified and corroborated by documents and other sources such as photographs. However, the Nuremberg Tribunal did not find documentary evidence of the use of gas chambers by the Germans in the camps. If this fact had taken place, then not only the designers of the gas chambers, but also the company that produced and supplied poison gas to the camps would have appeared before the court. In the questions of the judges to the defendant Minister of Armaments of Germany Speer, the gas chambers did not appear.
The only known case of the use of poisonous substances (chlorine) by the Germans during the years of the 1st World War. But in 1925, an international agreement was signed to ban the use of chemical poisons, known as the "Geneva Protocol". Germany joined in. Throughout the 2nd World War, Hitler never dared to use poisonous substances, despite the difficult situation of his troops, even at a critical moment for the Reich - in the battle for Berlin. If gas was used in Auschwitz, what kind? They talk about Cyclone-B. But among the known chemical toxic substances, such a gas does not appear.
The exaggeration in the Jewish press, especially recently, of the use by the Germans of gas chambers to kill Jews for some reason has taken on a completely curious character. So, a well-known Jewish propagandist, one of the active participants in the overthrow of Soviet power Heinrich Borovik, touching on this topic in one of his TV programs, he agreed to the fact that he allegedly met with the designer of German gas chambers in South America. But I, Borovik said, felt the danger and was glad that I got out alive. He ended up in Chile “during the search for the creator of the Nazi gas chambers, Walter Rauf,” who allegedly worked as “manager of a canned fish factory.”
At the end of the article in Pravda, the capacity of 5 crematoria per month (in thousands) is reported: 9, 90, 90, 45, 45. And the final conclusion is made: “Only during the existence of Auschwitz, the Germans could kill 5 "121" 000 people ".
And further: “However, applying correction factors for underloading of crematoria, for their individual downtime, maintenance, the commission found that during the existence of Auschwitz, German executioners killed at least 4 million citizens of the USSR, Poland, France, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia in it , Belgium, Holland and other countries”.
T Thus, in all publications, including the Great Soviet Encyclopedia, the figure of 4-4.5 million began to walk.
Years later, this figure of millions of people allegedly killed in Auschwitz was included in the collections of documents of the Nuremberg Tribunal during their publication and thus, as it were, legalized.
These collections began to be referred to in the preparation of new publications.
Those who prepared the article for Pravda for May 7, 1945 were clearly at odds with reality. If in 20 minutes 75 corpses were burned in 15 retorts of the 3rd and 4th crematoria, then 4.5 thousand are obtained per day. This is theoretical. But after all, with such an intensity of destruction of corpses, it is necessary to load only one crematorium 48 times a day. Not counting the unloading of corpses from the gas chambers, which allegedly contained poison gas. To get to the truth and get the truth about the mass extermination of people in Auschwitz, one would have to interrogate those who built the gas chambers, who delivered the gas, who unloaded the corpses, who took them to the crematoria, who unloaded the ashes. But none of the direct participants in the destruction of people during the Nuremberg trials was interrogated. From this we can conclude that there were no gas chambers in Auschwitz.
As a starting point for the assertion that it was precisely such a huge number of corpses that were burned per day, the article in Pravda cites a letter addressed to the “Central Construction of the SS and the Auschwitz (Auschwitz) Police” of a certain company “Topf and Sons”, which supposedly was supposed to build gas chambers and crematoria.
However, no correspondence between the camp administration and such a firm was found in the archives of Auschwitz.
In Germany, firms received orders not from the leadership of the concentration camps, but from the Ministry of Industry and Armaments.
Only one crematorium appears in the testimony of witnesses.
Having invented 5 gas chambers (which were supposedly either attached to crematoria or were in basements) and 5 crematoria, Jewish propagandists created a myth about the extermination of millions of people in Auschwitz.
It was nothing but an ideological diversion with far-reaching consequences.
In the preparation and organization of this sabotage An important role was played by the Trotskyists who were not finished off by Stalin, who, having changed their Jewish surnames to Russians, disappeared into the general mass of the party during the period of the purge of the party in 1935-1996. The mentioned article in Pravda appeared not without the participation of the then editor-in-chief of Pravda P.N. Pospelov (real name Fogelson) and the party ideologists M.A. Sovinformburo” under the leadership of the Jew Lozovsky.
Their role, as secret Trotskyists, came to light with the coming to power Khrushchev.
It was Pospelov (Fogelson) who prepared that notorious report “On the Personality Cult of Stalin,” which Khrushchev delivered at the 20th Party Congress.
The Birth of Holocaust Doubts (Reading Jewish Sources)
There are many doubts.
The reason for doubts are the numerous publications about the Holocaust, which suggest the falsity of the information given in them.
Let us first turn to Jewish sources, such as the Brief Jewish Encyclopedia (Jerusalem, 1990).
For some reason, there is no article about the Nuremberg Trials, but there is an article “The Nuremberg Laws”, which says that in Germany, with the advent of Hitler to power, two supposedly anti-Semitic legislative acts were issued - the “Reich Citizenship Law” and the “Law on protection of German blood and German honor.
According to Art. 2 of the Reich Citizenship Law, a citizen can only be one who has “German or related blood and who by his behavior proves the desire and ability to faithfully serve the German people and the Reich!”.
This article was interpreted by Jewish encyclopedists in their own way:
“Such a wording actually meant depriving the Jews of German citizenship.” The "Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honor" forbade, as "a desecration of the race," marriage and extramarital cohabitation between Jews and "citizens of German or related blood." The concept of “non-Aryan” was defined in the same law. On the basis of this law, in 1935, decrees were issued that allegedly closed the access for Jews to occupy leadership positions in Germany, and introduced the obligatory mark jude (“Jew”) in their certificates. But this is a natural phenomenon - to occupy leading positions in any state by representatives of the so-called titular nation, which constitutes the majority in terms of population. There were more Germans in Germany than Jews, but before Hitler came to power, only Jews dominated all power structures in Germany. This was the need for the introduction of the Nuremberg Laws, which limited the power of the Jews.
However, no government orders for the extermination of Jews in Nazi Germany were issued and, of course, they did not appear at the Nuremberg Trials.
If you carefully consider the period before Hitler came to power in 1933, you can see that all the hatred of the Jews for the Germans lies precisely in the fact that they lost power.
By the way, the same hatred of the Jews for Stalin is explained by the same thing - he also took power from the Jews, only in Russia.
Although not in such large numbers, Jews in Germany and Russia remained in the power structures.
Both Hitler and Stalin stopped the robbery of their countries and made their countries independent from the Jewish criminal capital at its core.
There is no article on the Holocaust in the Concise Jewish Encyclopedia, but there are articles on several German concentration camps that give some idea of the Jewish victims. For example, an article about Majdanek says that “only in 1942-43. Over 130,000 Jews were deported to Majdanek. The prisoners were used for various jobs. By November 1943, 37,000 people had died from overwork. The rest were liberated by the Red Army in 1944.”
Here Jewish propagandists, contradicting themselves, are forced to admit two indisputable facts. The first is that people in the camp were not killed or gassed, but "were used in various jobs and they died from overwork." The second is that almost 100,000 Jews were not exterminated, but liberated by the Red Army.
The article about Mauthausen says even less: “Only according to the surviving documents, 122,000 people were killed in the camp (of which 32-120 Jews).”
Now let's see what the Russian Jewish Encyclopedia, published in 2000, writes about the victims of the Holocaust. It also lacks an article on the Holocaust, but volume 4 contains an extensive article entitled "Catastrophe". In particular, it says: "An attempt to establish the exact number of victims is fraught with extreme difficulties due to the lack of verified data on the scale of the genocide in Eastern Europe." Articles about German concentration camps cite figures of dead Jews. Although they are unverified, they nevertheless say that there were few Jews in the concentration camps, since the bulk of the prisoners consisted of prisoners of war, among whom there were few Jews.
Claiming that the total number of victims of the Holocaust is difficult to establish, the same article cites the calculations of the American Jew Jack Robinson, who “calculated” that during the war years 5 million 821 thousand Jews died, of which 4 million 665 thousand were Polish and Soviet Jews.
And in the article "Jews in Poland", placed in the same edition, it is said that after joining in 1939-40. Western Ukraine and Belarus (taken away by Poland from Russia in 1920), as well as the Baltic states and Bessarabia, the Jewish population of the USSR was 5.25 million people, and that of them 2 million Jews were destroyed. As you can see, the data on the dead Jews of one article are in conflict with the data of another article of the same publication.
Even more interesting information is provided by the article "Poland". From reading this article, it turns out that (and I quote) “in total, about 350,000 Polish Jews ended up in the interior of the Soviet Union - they all fled either to the United States or inland.” According to the 1939 census, 3 million 28.5 thousand Jews lived in the USSR. With the addition of 350,000 Polish Jews to them, their total number on the eve of the war should have been less than 3.5 million. And according to Robinson's "calculations", it turns out 4.565 million!
In order to convince the reader that Robinson's data is correct, the article "Catastrophe" refers to the judgment of the Nuremberg International Tribunal, where it allegedly noted that "according to A. Eichmann's calculation, 6 million Jews were killed by the Germans."
This is blatant nonsense, because Eichmann he did not make any calculations, and he himself was not at the Nuremberg trials. He was caught and executed in Israel later 15 years after the war.
For the uninformed (reading the documents of the Nurbern Tribunal)
And now let's turn to the documents of the Nuremberg trials of the main German war criminals.
It is noteworthy that the documents were published 20 years after the Nuremberg trials, during the so-called “Khrushchev thaw”, when lies were elevated to the rank of state policy.
Before getting acquainted with the documents, I no longer doubted that there Jewish ideologists from the Central Committee of the CPSU tried to stick the figure of 6 million or close to it.
The 3rd volume of documents is devoted to the Nazi death camps. They generally refute the numbers of victims of the Holocaust, which are trumpeted daily by the Jewish media. For example, in the materials about the Treblinka camp, Z. Lukashevich, acting district judicial investigator in Siedlice, cites the conclusion: “I believe that about 50 thousand Poles and Jews died in this camp.”
More specific information is given about Buchenwald.
The "Report of the parliamentary delegation of Great Britain, investigating the atrocities of the Germans in this camp" is given:“The maximum capacity was determined at 120 thousand people. On April 1, 1945 (at the time of liberation by the troops), the number of prisoners in the camp amounted to 80 "813 people. It turned out to be impossible to give an accurate estimate of the percentage of nationalities remaining in the camp of prisoners: we met many Jews, Germans of non-Jewish origin, Poles, Hungarians, Czechs , French, Belgians, Russians, etc. In a detailed report handed over to us by representatives of the anti-fascist committee, it was indicated that the total number of dead and killed in Buchenwald was 51 "572 people. The Nazis left detailed camp files with names, but at the time of our visit it was impossible to start compiling lists of people still in the camp, since the American medical and sanitary service was cleaning up the camp.
It turns out that it turns out that Jewish journalists, screaming about 6 million victims of the Holocaust, deliberately keep silent about the fact that in German concentration camps there were detailed camp card indexes indicating the names of prisoners. According to them, it was possible to determine the total number of victims, up to one person. In Buchenwald, this figure was 51 "572 people. In the encyclopedia "The Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945." the article on Buchenwald provides additional information: “The labor of the prisoners was used in mines and industrial enterprises, especially at the large military enterprise Gustlowerke.”
The Germans did not separate the prisoners along ethnic lines, which was also confirmed by the British parliamentary commission. The surviving documents indicated from which country the prisoners came, their names and the total number. For example, prisoners from the Soviet-German front were called Russians, although among them were Ukrainians, Belarusians, and representatives of other nationalities that inhabited the Soviet Union. Therefore, everywhere, in all documents, the total figure for the loss of the camp population is indicated without division along national lines. How many of the dead in Buchenwald were Jews, so no one has determined. Thus, even this information casts doubt on the numbers of victims of the Holocaust.
About the camp Dora in the documents of the Nuremberg trials the following is reported: “The capacity of the camp is 20 thousand people. The camp has a barrack system, where there are 140 residential and service barracks. There is a crematorium with two ovens with 5 corpses in each oven. According to the amount of ashes and the remaining documents, 35 thousand corpses were burned in the crematorium ovens and in the pits (for the entire time the camp existed from 1942 to April 11, 1945).”
Now you can compare that exactly the same crematorium, but with three ovens (“Pravda” dated May 7, 1945) monthly burned 9 thousand corpses. All this suggests that the article in Pravda was inspired by Soviet Zionists, who then hid under the guise of communists.
From the report of the legal service of the 3rd US Army dated June 2, 1945, which examined the Flossenbürg concentration camp: “Among the victims of Flossenbürg were Russians - civilians and prisoners of war, German civilians, Italians, Belgians, Poles, Czechs, Hungarians, English and American prisoners of war . It is almost impossible to compile a complete list of the victims who died in the camp from its inception in 1931 until the day of liberation. Approximately this list includes more than 29 thousand people”. And here we see that no one from the general list singled out or counted the number of dead Jews. Yes, they are not mentioned in this report.
It is known that by the beginning of the war on the territory of Germany and Austria there were 6 concentration camps. Among them is Flossenbürg. Opponents of the regime were kept in these camps - German communists and German criminal elements. There were few of them. Only with the beginning of the war, prisoners of war and Russian civilians deported to Germany for forced labor began to enter the camp.
Auschwitz has a special place in the Jewish propaganda machine.Without exception, all Jewish printed publications are unanimous in one thing, that it is in Auschwitz that the total number of dead Jews is the largest. Since it was not possible for Jewish propagandists to single out from the total mass of prisoners and count the number of Jews who died in a single camp, but 6 million it was necessary to type from somewhere, then somewhere, by someone, at some closed Jewish council it was decided to concentrate the largest number of victims on Auschwitz and consider it a Holocaust.
It is alleged that the Germans brought Jews from all European countries for extermination in Auschwitz, in connection with which the total number of Jews killed in some publications was brought to almost 4.5 million.
But recently this figure has started to decline. For example, the Concise Jewish Encyclopedia states:
“In view of the fact that the vast majority of Jews were sent to the gas chambers without any registration, it is impossible to establish the exact number of victims. According to American intelligence data (published by the Office of the President in December 1950) and covering the period up to March 1944, 1.765 million Jews were exterminated in Auschwitz.”
If the number of victims of Auschwitz cannot be established, how did the Americans establish them? Is it possible to trust American data at all, if Auschwitz was liberated by the Red Army, and all camp documentation was taken to the USSR and classified?
A comparison of American data with Soviet data showed that 1.765 million Jews were killed in Auschwitz - this is a lie!
In a recently published book by Jewish authors “Jews and the 20th century. Analytical Dictionary” (2004), this figure was even lower: “It is believed that almost 1.1 million people were killed in Auschwitz, and about a million of them were Jews.” Who "assumes" and on what basis is unknown.
And then follows: “Due to the fact that Auschwitz had the status of the deadliest place in all of Nazi Germany, Auschwitz is known as the epicenter of the Holocaust, the murder of over 6 million European Jews by the Nazis during the years of the 2nd World War.”
And here the question arises.
If one million Jews were killed in Auschwitz, then where, in what place, were the remaining 5 million Jews killed? After all, the number of Jews killed in all the camps is still unknown.
It is interesting to note that the authors of the analytical dictionary themselves, talking about the monument to the victims of the Holocaust erected in Auschwitz, drew attention to the inscription on the monument: “Four million people suffered and died here at the hands of German murderers in 1940-1945.” And they immediately noted: “Meanwhile, it is well known that 4 million people did not find their death in Auschwitz. The number 4 million, as unreliable as it is rounded, arose as a result of the desire of the Polish authorities to inflate as much as possible the figure reflecting the number of political martyrs”.
Some Jewish researchers of the Holocaust are forced to state that such an impressive figure of victims of Auschwitz had more political in nature than the desire to establish the truth.
And subsequent publications in the Jewish press revealed and financial benefit from Holocaust propaganda.
If you carefully read the collections of documents of the Nuremberg trials, it is noteworthy that for some reason there is no detailed information on the Auschwitz camp itself. There are no references to camp documents, nor evidence that they were considered during court hearings. And if some information is found, then they come into conflict with one another. For example, in the testimony of the former commandant of the Auschwitz camp, Rudolf Hess, it is stated that the total death toll is approximately 3 million people, of which approximately 100,000 are German Jews. However, Max Grabner testified: "During my leadership of the political department of the camp in Auschwitz, 3-6 million people were killed." So 3 or 6 million? Hess spoke about one gas chamber in the camp with a capacity of 2 thousand people, and Grabner - 4. Hess allegedly claimed that "during the summer of 1944 in Auschwitz alone, we executed approximately 400 thousand Hungarian Jews." While Hess was the camp commandant until December 1st, 1943. For some reason, all of Hess' testimony is concentrated on Jewish victims.
Apparently, one of the compilers of the collection, published not just anywhere, but in the USSR, "edited" Hess's testimony in the right direction - towards an increase in Jewish victims. Based on this, it can be argued that when compiling a collection of documents and preparing it for publication forgery was committed, the testimony of witnesses was falsified.
Hess himself was not interrogated at the Nuremberg trials.
Striking with its content is another document called "Report of the Polish Government".
It lists the extermination camps located in Poland, and for some reason, again, apparently deliberately, the emphasis is on victims suffered only by Jews. Attention is drawn to the vagueness of the wording, the style of presentation, and vagueness.
Belzec: "Thousands of people died."
Sobibor: "Thousands of Jews were brought there and gassed in cells."
Kosuev-Podlaski: "The methods used here were similar to those in other camps." Not a word about the number of victims.
Kholmno: "This camp was a station that received Jews coming from the Reich and from the surrounding territories." Not a word about the number of victims.
Auschwitz: “In the period up to the end of December 1942, according to reliable information and testimonies, among the victims were 85 thousand Poles, 52 thousand Jews from Poland and other countries, 26 thousand Russian prisoners of war.” Further, it is reported in what conditions the prisoners were, how much food they were given, and at the end, without any reference to documents (and in Auschwitz, like other camps, there were books of records of all prisoners arriving at the camp), a stunning conclusion is made: “... Thus, 5 million human beings were killed in Auschwitz.” What kind of “reliable information” this is and why the number of victims is limited to December 1942 is unknown. How many of these "human beings" were Jews is not said.
Majdanek: “In 1940, the Germans set up a concentration camp in Majdanek, near Ljubljana, in which 1.5 million people of various nationalities, mostly Poles and Jews, were imprisoned for 4 years.” And then the absolutely incredible follows: “1.7 million human beings were killed in Majdanek.” How many Jews among them is unknown.
Treblinka: “When the process of extermination of the Jews began, Treblinka became one of the first camps to which the victims were sent. The average number of Jews exterminated in the camp in the summer of 1942 amounted to two railway transports per day. This data comes from one prisoner who managed to escape from the camp. It was Yankel Wernik, a Jew, a carpenter by trade, who spent a year in Treblinka.” It was evident that the document had been fabricated somewhere: the prisoners were called “human beings”.
The document itself (if you can call it that) looks strange.
All documents that were considered by the court of the international tribunal were assigned a number. It is not on this document.
Reading this "report" raises many questions.
Why is it placed not in the 3rd volume, where documents about the atrocities of the Germans are collected, but in the 2nd?
If this is a “report”, then who made it, when and where?
At that time, there was still no Polish government as such, but there was a Provisional Polish Government of National Unity, formed on June 23, 1945. The document has neither a date nor a signature certifying its authenticity.
If the camp commandant R. Hess allegedly showed 3 million killed in the camp, then why was it necessary to inflate this figure to 5 million?
Without finding answers to these questions, a firm conviction is created that one of the compilers of the collection was interested in sticking this fake “document” into the collection when preparing it for publication in order to give the figure of 5 million authenticity.
And this interested person could be one of the compilers of the collection Jew Mark Raginsky.
It was he who was responsible for the selection of documents in this section (this is mentioned in the collection).
Now it becomes clear why in many Jewish sources the emphasis is on Auschwitz.
Subsequently, Jewish propagandists turned the figure of 5 million destroyed “human beings” into 5 million Jews. And taking into account the "exterminated" Jews in other German concentration camps, it was not difficult to "find" another million.
And so the final figure of 6 million, called the Holocaust, began to walk in the press. Auschwitz was artificially made the center of the Holocaust, in which the mass extermination of Jews allegedly took place.
However, Mark Raginsky, placing a forged document in the 2nd volume of the collection of materials of the Nuremberg Trials, did not take into account the fact that this deception is easily detected when reading the documents of the 3rd volume. In this volume entitled “Crimes against humanity. Mass deportation of the population for slave labor” reveals all the lies of Jewish propaganda: the prisoners were brought to the camps not for extermination, but for use in the construction of military factories. And yes, the title says so. From the documents on Auschwitz, it is clear that on March 24, 1941, a meeting of representatives of the German military industry was held at the Ludwigsgafen plant, at which a decision was made to build an IG Auschwitz plant for the production of buna (synthetic rubber) in the small village of Oswiecim. Soon in the same area, the construction of a Krupp plant for the production of weapons began. To do this, it was supposed to demolish most of the village. At the same time, it was noted that "the eviction of Poles and Jews will cause by the spring of 1942 a large shortage in the labor force." That is, this document is not about the destruction, but the eviction of Poles and Jews from the village of Auschwitz. The 3rd volume contains many documents on Auschwitz, including weekly reports from the factory management with the presence of the camp commandant. At the meeting of August 9, 1941, it was said that on the basis of the intervention of the Reichsführer SS Himmler, all German concentration camps were ordered to provide 75 guards for Auschwitz (“40 had already arrived last week,” the document said). And then it was said: “This makes it possible to send one thousand more prisoners to the concentration camp in addition to the 816 already working on construction sites.” That is, we are talking about only about two thousand prisoners in Auschwitz at that time. Already by 1942, a shortage of labor began to be felt in Germany, which is why it was decided to use prisoners of war in the construction of military facilities. Subsequently, the civilian population deported to Germany from the territories occupied by the Germans began to be used to work in military factories and agriculture.
The report on the meeting on the construction of the Farben-Oswiecim plant dated September 8, 1942 states that “by order of Sauckel, another 2,000 prisoners were sent to Auschwitz.” Thus, on September 8, 1942, there were 3816 people in the camp. And in the “Report of the Polish Government” it is reported that by the end of December 1942, 163 thousand people were killed in the camp. In a report dated February 8, 1943, the issue of increasing the number of prisoners in the Auschwitz camp was discussed: “SS Colonel Maurer promised that their number would increase in the near future from 4 to 4.5 thousand people.” And from the report of September 9, 1943, it can be seen that there were a total of 20,000 prisoners in the camp. These figures give an idea of the number of prisoners in Auschwitz, although there is no information about the camp itself.
The testimonies of some witnesses for the prosecution, placed in the 3rd volume, are curious.
So Gregoire Arena said: “On January 22, 1944, I was arrested in Paris and sent to Auschwitz. The wake-up call took place at 4 am. At 4.30 the prisoners were called to roll call. After the roll call, we were taken to the factory, where construction work was going on for IG Farbenindustry. There were about 12,000 of us prisoners, and about 2,000 English prisoners of war, as well as civilian workers of various nationalities. Execution by hanging was common. 2-3 people were hanged every week. The gallows stood on the same parade ground where the roll call took place. On January 18, 1945, the Germans evacuated Auschwitz. On January 27, the Russians arrived. I remained in Auschwitz until February 9 and worked as an interpreter for the Russians.”
As you can see, there are no millions here either (they are just invented). The total number of working prisoners says that by the time of release it did not exceed 15-16 thousand people. The gas chambers are not mentioned either. The prisoners would remember them. Instead, one gallows and 2-3 hanged per week. Here are all the victims of Auschwitz in a week, and not 10-12 thousand a day, which the Jewish press paints about.
Another prisoner, Douglas Frost, testified at the trial: “I was captured on April 9, 1941, near Tobruk. I was first sent to Italy, then to Germany, and finally to Auschwitz. Soon I started working for IG Farben. The factory in Auschwitz covered an area of about 6 square kilometers and was built entirely by the slave labor of prisoners. The Germans worked only as overseers. There were from 10,000 to 15,000 Jews and 22,000 people of other nationalities, mostly Russians and Poles.”
And in these testimonies there is no talk of any millions of Jews.
From the testimony of the defendant Otto Ambros: “From 1938 to 1945 I was the chief manager of the IG Farbenidustri concern. Under my control were all the departments of the production of Buna for rubber. I was instructed in 1940 to find the necessary territory for the construction of the 4th plant for the production of Buna. Auschwitz is an area that turned out to be suitable for our purposes. "IG Farbenidustri" was built using the labor of prisoners, as there was not enough labor. The plant in Auschwitz produced 30 tons of buna per year”. Many other testimonies, both witnesses for the prosecution and the defendants, can be cited, from which it follows that prisoners were brought to Auschwitz not for mass extermination, but for work.
Few people know that all the documents on Auschwitz were taken to Moscow and were immediately classified. Apparently, so that people do not know the true numbers of the victims of Auschwitz, and what really happened there
Already during the period of perestroika, in the era of glasnost, one meticulous journalist gained access to documents from Auschwitz.
It is surprising how the Jewish newspaper Izvestia overlooked publishing this sensational stuff.
After all, he completely crosses out all the writings about the horrors of Auschwitz with its gas chambers and crematoria. The newspaper of February 17, 1990 published an article “Five days in a special archive”, which indicated the victims of Auschwitz closer to the truth, consonant with the documents of the Nuremberg Tribunal. “But we survived, thank God, to glasnost. Last summer, the Auschwitz books of death were extracted from the bowels of the archive, albeit with some difficulty. with the names of seventy thousand prisoners from 24 countries who died in the extermination camp”. As mentioned above, the Germans were not involved in establishing the nationality of the prisoners. Therefore, the Izvestinsky people failed to determine the number of Jews who died in Auschwitz out of these 70,000.
Although Jewish researchers in their latest research have reduced the number of their victims in Auschwitz to one million, this figure is also far-fetched. It is simply impossible to locate a concentration camp with a capacity of even a million people on the territory of the village of Auschwitz on an area of 6 square kilometers, and there is no documentary evidence of the destruction of such a number of people in Auschwitz in the minutes of court hearings in Nuremberg.
The fact of the destruction of such a huge number of Jews is not confirmed by demographic scientists who study the change in the number of peoples of the world over the years.
conclusions
Now it becomes clear why Jewish researchers of the Holocaust in their numerous writings try to hush up some documents of the Nuremberg Tribunal, in which 3, 4, and even 5 million victims of Auschwitz were entered with a big stretch. It is unprofitable for them, since when they get acquainted with the testimony of prosecution witnesses and original documents, the following indisputable facts are revealed.
1 . Prisoners were used to work in the construction of military enterprises in Germany, which is confirmed by numerous documents of the 3rd Reich, including minutes and reports of meetings, telephone messages, circulars, testimony of prisoners. Even common sense told the Germans why, having such an amount of cheap labor, to destroy it. Government orders ordering the mass extermination of Jews. The Nuremberg Tribunal did not record. The reference of the Jewish encyclopedists to the Wannsee Conference held on January 20, 1942, at which the decision on the final solution of the Jewish question was supposedly made, is also untenable. It did not appear in the Nurbern trials. The Concise Jewish Encyclopedia (1976 edition) states that the decisions of the Wannsee Conference applied to the 11 million Jews living in Germany. In reality, 503,000 Jews lived in Germany before the war (300,000 of them left for other countries). The Nuremberg Laws adopted after Hitler came to power should serve as the basis for the supposedly final solution of the Jewish question. But even they do not say that the Jews should be exterminated without exception.
2. Documents from the concentration camps show that the Germans did not separate the prisoners along ethnic lines. Therefore, it was impossible to single out the Jews from them.
3. We are often shown footage of newsreels with people stripped to the naked and the accompanying text that they seem to be going to the gas chambers. But specially created commissions from representatives of the allied powers, when examining concentration camps, did not find a single gas chamber. In some camps (according to documents), in order to prevent outbreaks of infectious diseases, barracks and people were sanitized, which was later passed off as gas poisoning by some Jewish propagandists.
4. The multi-million victims of Auschwitz are an indicator of the lies of the Jewish press both in Russia, where the Jews seized power, and abroad. In the “report of the Polish government” composed by someone, the number 5 million appears. The number 4 million is stamped on the monument to the victims of the Holocaust in Auschwitz. The compilers of the Great Soviet Encyclopedia indicated that “over 4 million people were killed in the camp during the existence of the camp.” Camp commandant R. Hess indicated 3 million. The authors of the reference book “Jews and the 20th Century” prove that 1.1 million people died in Auschwitz. But in reality it turned out that in the camp the number of victims does not exceed 70 thousand.
5. The main supplier of labor for Germany was the Eastern Front and the bulk of the concentration camp prisoners were prisoners of war and civilians forcibly taken out by the Germans from the occupied regions of the USSR. There were few foreigners. Hijacking to work in Germany was part of the Nazi occupation regime. According to the encyclopedia "The Great Patriotic War 1941-1945" (ed. 1985), about 6 million people were taken out of the USSR by the Germans. According to the logic of Jewish propagandists, it was they who made up the bulk of the dead Jews. But the same encyclopedia reports that of these 6 million, 5.5 million returned to their homeland.
It is believed that by the end of the war on the territory of Germany, Austria and Poland there were about 14 million people who were forcibly taken out by the Germans from various European countries, including the USSR. If we consider this figure close to the truth, as well as the figure of 10 million of them who returned from the camps to their homeland, then the figure of 6 million dead Jews also does not fit into the remaining figure of 4 million citizens of various nationalities. So how many Jews actually died? This question is answered by the demographic data of states when comparing the number of Jews before and after the war. Approximate estimates show that the number of victims among the Jewish population of Europe does not exceed 250-400 thousand people. This includes those who died of natural causes.
6. Now about the gas chambers and crematoriums in which these ill-fated millions of Jews were allegedly burned.
There are 3 state and one private crematoriums in Moscow. Mitinsky and Khovansky each have 4 ovens, Nikolo-Arkhangelsky - 14 and the private CJSC "Gorbrus" - 2 ovens. With the modern technique of cremation (and English technology is installed in our crematoria), the average time for burning one corpse is 1.5 hours. Theoretically, with continuous operation of 24 furnaces per day, 252 corpses should be burned. But the furnaces are stopped for ash extraction and preventive maintenance. Therefore, in total, all 4 crematoria in Moscow burn about 200 corpses per day. That is, 6,000 corpses per month.
This figure completely refutes the statement of the Jewish press that 279 thousand corpses of people who were previously killed in gas chambers were burned in Auschwitz every month. So at least it was reported in Pravda of May 7, 1945. Even if there really were 5 crematoria with 15 ovens in Auschwitz, with the technique of burning corpses that existed in Auschwitz, it is simply impossible to burn such a number of corpses in a month. And the Germans physically could not deliver almost 300 thousand people to the Auschwitz camp alone every month for 5 years. Even if they could, then with such an intensity of the destruction of people, the Germans would have managed with 6 million prisoners in 2 years, and not in 5 years.
All these calculations and reasoning lead to an unambiguous conclusion: there were no gas chambers either in Auschwitz or in other camps. Most of the prisoners died of natural causes from disease, exhaustion and exhausting labor in the military factories built in the camp area. The gas chambers were invented by Boris Polev in order to horrify the public, they say, what monsters the Germans are, and thereby arouse hatred for the Germans all over the world even more.
It is known that a similar technique was used by British intelligence during the 1st World War, when a rumor was spread through the press that the Germans were processing the corpses of soldiers, their own and others, into stearin and pig feed. . This message caused an uproar around the world and served as a pretext for China to enter the war on the side of Great Britain. On this occasion, the American newspaper The Times Dispatch wrote a few years later: “The famous story of the corpses, which during the war brought the hatred of the peoples towards Germany to the limit, has now been declared a lie by the English House of Commons. The world has learned that this lie was fabricated and spread by one of the cleverest officers of British intelligence.”
Today we can say that the famous gas chamber story is a lie. The world learned that this lie was fabricated and spread during the 2nd World War by one of the clever Soviet officers B. Polev (he had the rank of colonel). But the news about the gas chambers in that distant 1945 did not cause indignation either among the readers of Pravda or the world press, which, as is well known, was in the hands of the Jews. Nobody believed this. They do not believe even today. The fact that there were no gas chambers in Auschwitz throughout the war is evidenced not only by the original documents of the Nuremberg Tribunal (they are not mentioned in the accusatory speeches of representatives of the victorious countries), but also in the conclusion of the International Red Cross commission, which arrived in Auschwitz immediately after his release. It is also known that representatives of this international organization repeatedly visited German concentration camps during the war and did not record a single gas chamber.
Despite the lack of evidence of the use of gas chambers by the Germans (no drawings, no orders from the German command for their construction, no photographs were found), Jewish propagandists, even after 60 years, still try to claim that they were. So, for example, in the program "Euronews" on Channel 5 TV for January 17 this year. On the eve of the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, one chimney was shown, which indicates that there was one crematorium in Auschwitz. This is a surviving building, small in appearance, in which it is not clear how, according to the announcer, 5,000 corpses could be destroyed daily. Then the viewers were shown a small pile of metal cans similar in volume to cans, and the announcer's voice said that there were 20,000 such cans, and that each can with 5 kg of gas could kill 1,500 people. How such small jars could hold 5 kg of gas and how they were filled with gas, viewers were not told.
Then they showed a small square hole in something, where, apparently, this can of gas was supposed to be placed. It was an allusion to the gas chamber. They tried to convince the viewers that with the help of these 20 thousand jars, either 4, or 3, or one and a half million prisoners were destroyed (the last figure is indicated in the Parliamentary Newspaper of January 26, 2005). But a simple arithmetic calculation by multiplying 20 thousand by 1500 gives the figure 30 million! This figure does not fit anywhere at all and once again shows all the deceitfulness of Jewish propagandists. We Russians seem to be considered fools. You can deceive all the time part of the people. You can deceive the whole people for a short time. But you can not deceive all the people all the time. The time has come to bring to justice the persons and press organs who spread these lies and constantly impose on the Russians the idea that the Jews, working for the Germans, suffered more than all other peoples during the war.
Holocaust propaganda pays off
An American Jew, New York University professor Norman Finkelstein published a book called The Holocaust Industry, which was published in English (2000), German (2001) and Russian (2002). This book is notable for revealing a subtle fact. If 6 million Jews became victims of the Germans (this is almost half of all Jews in the world), then why are they still alive? After all, they are considered destroyed in the gas chambers, where they were driven 10-12 thousand a day! Today they demand compensation, like victims of the Holocaust.
Finkelstein opens the eyes of the world community to some aspects of this brilliant Jewish invention. He drew attention to the fact that the promotion of the propaganda campaign on the Holocaust began after the victory of Israel over the Arabs in 1967. And it was started by American Jews. Through the Holocaust, they defended and justified the violation of the rights of Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied territories. As Finkelstein noted, "Israel and the Holocaust became the pillars of the new Jewish religion in the United States, which replaced the dilapidated Old Testament."
And not only in the USA, but also in Russia, which ended up in Jewish hands. The legend of the eternally persecuted people and the terrible Holocaust became necessary not only to protect Israel from condemnation by the world community, but also to protect the national wealth seized by Jews from other peoples from any criticism. As soon as a word is said against a rogue Jew, the Jewish-owned world press immediately screams about Auschwitz. And if it comes to Jewish swindlers like Berezovsky, Gusinsky or Khodorkovsky, then they immediately threaten to return the Gulag.
Finkelstein argues that the top Jewish community in the United States acquired millions and billions of dollars on the money of the Holocaust, while the real victims of Nazism get crumbs.
Finkelstein writes that only 15% German compensation for former prisoners reached the goal the rest stuck in the pockets of leaders of various Jewish organizations such as the American Jewish Committee, the American Jewish Congress, B'nai B'rith, Joyne, and others. Jewish demands for compensation have turned into racketeering and extortion, writes Finkelstein. Not only those who were in German concentration camps began to extort money, but also those who had never been there.
Jews targeted as their first victim even Switzerland. They started a rumor that several billion dollars worth of Holocaust victims' accounts were still in Swiss banks and that their heirs could not get them. But none of these extortionists, writes Finkelitein, “provided valid proof of the existence of deposits in Swiss banks.” It is known that Swiss banks are very sensitive to economic pressure from the United States and therefore were forced, fearing notoriety, pay extortionists.
Having dealt with the Swiss, the Jewish organizations took up Germany. They demanded compensation for the forced labor of their fellow tribesmen during the 2nd World War, and under pain of a boycott and legal action, the German companies agreed to start the payout.
Here the "victims" of the Holocaust exposed themselves.
They did not die in the gas chambers, but worked in German factories.
The experience of extortion in Switzerland and Germany served as a prologue to the total robbery of Germany's allies during the 2nd World War.
The Holocaust industry, writes Finkelstein, set about extorting the poor of the former socialist camp.
The first victim of pressure was Poland, from which Jewish organizations demand all the property that ever belonged to Jews - victims of the Holocaust and is estimated at many billions of dollars. Next in line is Belarus. At the same time, the robbery of Austria is being prepared.
In German concentration camps there were Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians, and people of other nationalities, but for some reason German compensation did not reach them. Naruseva, the wife of the famous Sobchak, was in charge of receiving compensation in Russia.
The Russian people did not notice how they were enslaved. And they have to pay Jewish extortionists.
With the beginning of perestroika, the Jewish media led the Russians to the idea that they should also be paid for the victims of the Stalinist concentration camps to the living Jews. And the payments are coming. Talking about 6 million victims of the Holocaust, the Jews with the same zeal scream from day to day about the millions of victims of the Stalin period, equating Stalin with Hitler. But even here, if we take a closer look at these "victims", then the following becomes clear. Firstly, these tens of millions never existed, and secondly, Soviet concentration camps were created by Jews at the dawn of Soviet (Jewish) power, and the victims of these camps were exclusively Russians. About 3 million Russians fled abroad from the horrors of Jewish emergency situations and Jewish concentration camps, and about the same number of Russians were tortured to death in these Jewish emergency situations and concentration camps.
Jews received compensation from Germany fraudulently, 50 years after the end of the war, because there was no Holocaust.
But Israel, where Russian Jews arrived, and Jews living in Russia, where they are again in power, must pay compensation to Russians for their truly millions of victims and property confiscated from them in the years after the 1917 revolution and during the period of perestroika - the new Jewish revolution - at the end of the 20th century. Compensation for the robbery that they perpetrated on 1/6 of the land. That would be perfectly fair!
Holocaust propaganda - retaliatory measures
On January 26-27, 2002, the International Conference on Global Problems of World History was held in Moscow. Scientists from the USA, Morocco, Austria, Yugoslavia, Switzerland, Bulgaria, Australia and Russia took part in it. The vast majority of reports were devoted to the study of the Holocaust. Some speakers who studied the Holocaust visited former German concentration camps and independently came to the conclusion that the Germans did not exterminate 6 million Jews. The Russian media did their best to ignore the conference. Her silence once again showed that the Russian press is in the hands of those who benefit from supporting the myth of the Holocaust. Freedom of speech and glasnost in Russia turned out to be with the Jews, so any attempt to express an opposite opinion runs into an obstacle; even talking about it is forbidden. Those who try to understand the Holocaust are persecuted. For example, the author of the book "The Great Lie of the 20th Century" (the myth of the genocide of Jews during World War II), 1997, Jurgen Graf was forced to emigrate from Switzerland and move to Belarus.
In this regard, retaliatory measures are also needed: to persecute those who are engaged in Holocaust propaganda and profit from this propaganda (Holocaust museums have already been opened in a number of Russian cities, books on the Holocaust, including textbooks for children, are being published in mass editions).

The myth of 6,000,000
It is impossible today to say exactly how many Jews died at the hands of the Nazis, and most likely it will never be possible to establish even an approximate number of them. But one can get some idea of how the number of Jews who died during the war years is being manipulated for their own purposes by unscrupulous historians and politicians...
The celebrations are expected to be attended by Russian President Vladimir Putin, US Vice President Dick Cheney and other dignitaries from many countries. They will undoubtedly remember the people tortured here by the Nazis, but hardly anyone will say a word about the fact that the history of Auschwitz is far from being as unambiguous as it might seem at first glance, and - most importantly - is inextricably linked with one of the most odious myths. Second World War.
Years go by, and the question of the number of Jews who died during the Second World War does not lose its relevance and does not cease to occupy specialists in various fields - from historians to chemists unsuccessfully trying to figure out the structure of gas chambers. Interest in this topic is supported primarily by the Jews themselves, for whom the number of victims that boggles the imagination of any normal person has become one of the main justifications for both the creation of the state of Israel and its policies, and is also used to this day to present a wide variety of financial and political claims against the states, one way or another involved in the "final solution" of the Jewish question. Suffice it to recall that Germany still pays compensation to the victims of the Holocaust; that Switzerland was forced to pay billions of dollars for the accounts of European Jews kept in its banks; that many companies become victims of blackmail, boycott and economic sanctions only on the slightest suspicion that they were in any way collaborating with the Nazis. How exactly this happens, as well as what colossal material and moral capital Jewish organizations have extracted and continue to extract from the death of their fellow tribesmen during the Second World War, is described in great detail in the excellent book by the Israeli, we note, researcher Norman Finkelstein "Industry of the Holocaust" ( Norman G. Finkelstein. The Holocaust Industry. A lot to restore the truth was done by such scientists as David Irving, Kevin Macdonald, Jean-Claude Pressac, Roger Garaudy, Robert Faurisson, Michael Hoffman, Ernst Zündel and others. Many of them Zündel, for example, after serving several years in the United States, is now in a Canadian prison, and in Europe there are laws in general, according to which even a simple doubt about the official history of the "Holocaust" is a criminal offense. included in the criminal code of America, Canada and other countries.
Considering how much money the "holocaust industry" brings to Jewish organizations, and also how profitable the role of victims is, allowing the use of furnaces of German concentration camps as the main argument after which any discussion of the Jewish question or Israeli politics ends, it is not surprising that the Zionists do everything possible to prevent the revision of the official statistics of the victims of Nazism. On the other hand, it is precisely for this reason that it is so important to understand how things really were. Is it really, as it is written in all history books and as it would seem known to everyone, that the Third Reich is guilty of the death of 6 million Jews?
According to the materials of the Wannsee Conference, which decided on the "final solution of the Jewish question", the total number of Jews in the territories controlled by the Nazis was 4.5 million at the end of 1941. There was no reason for the Germans, who were known for their pedantry, to deceive themselves at that time. But this figure is of great interest, not only in comparison with the magical six million, but also in the light of the fact that, according to the government of the Federal Republic of Germany, in 1988 there were satisfied about 4.3 million claims for compensation to survivors of the Holocaust, which means that all these people were able to document that during the Second World War they were in the territory occupied by the Germans and were persecuted for their Jewish origin, but nevertheless survived. It would seem that, having these figures, it would be easy to determine the number of Jews killed by the Germans, but not everything, it turns out, is so simple. So, where big politics is involved, the laws of arithmetic, it turns out, lose their force.
It is impossible today to say exactly how many Jews died at the hands of the Nazis, and most likely it will never be possible to establish even an approximate number of them. The figure of 6,000,000 was originally obtained based on two sources. First, former SS officer Wilhelm Hottl testified at the Nuremberg trials that, according to Adolf Eichmann, who told him about it, 4 million Jews died in concentration camps and another 2 million died "in other places." The second source is the testimony of the former commandant of Auschwitz, Rudolf Höss, who said that 4 million Jews died in the camp under his command alone. We will return to Höss' testimony below, but for now we will only note that even officially recognized Jewish researchers question these figures. For example, Raul Hilberg, one of the leading experts on the history of the Holocaust, professor of political science at the University of Vermont and author of the textbook monograph The Destruction of European Jewry, in an article for the Encarta encyclopedia, lists all the concentration camps in which, according to him, there were gas chambers. By the way, this list does not include such infamous camps as Bergen-Belsen and Dachau, which for many years were considered "factories of death" - photographs allegedly taken there with mountains of corpses depicted on them went around the whole world. So, according to the data of Professor Hilberg, published, we emphasize once again in the official "Microsoft" Enkarta encyclopedia, it turns out that 2.8 million Jews died in the gas furnaces of Treblinka, Majdanek, Auschwitz and three other camps, of which a million people - in Auschwitz. If this figure is true, then the number of six million derived from Höss' testimony of the four million killed in Auschwitz must be at least halved. Hilberg himself, by the way, repeatedly gave different figures for the total number of Jewish victims of the "holocaust", without providing any explanation for his inconsistency.
The truth, as mentioned above, we probably will never know. But some idea of how the number of Jews who died during the war years is now being manipulated by unscrupulous historians and politicians for their own purposes can be obtained by following how the number of "burned in the ovens" of perhaps the most famous German concentration camp, Auschwitz, has changed over the years. A detailed table of these data, with reference to sources, was published in 2001 in the prestigious Barnes Review, and it can be found on the Internet. We will give just a few examples from there.
The number of alleged deaths in Auschwitz
9,000,000 French documentary "Night and Fog", which was widely shown around the world.
8,000,000 French Ministry of War Crimes December 1945
7,000,000 Data from the same ministry a year later
From 5,000,000 to 5,500,000 These figures were heard at the trial of former Auschwitz commandant Rudolf Höss and were based on his affidavit. These testimonies, by the way, were written in English, which, as it was found out, he did not speak.
4,000,000 The number of deaths in Auschwitz, officially established at the Nuremberg Trials.
3,500,000 French Dictionary, 1991 edition. The same figure is given by Claude Lanzman, a famous documentary filmmaker and author of the serial film "Shoah", in 1980 in his preface to the book "Three Years in the Auschwitz Gas Chamber" by Philip Muller.
2,500,000 The figure cited at the trial of Adolf Eichmann by the chief witness for the prosecution, Rudolf Vrba.
2,000,000 A figure given by three famous Holocaust scholars: Leon Polyakov in his book Harvest of Hatred (1951); George Wellers in The Yellow Star in the Vichy Age (1973) and Lucy Davidovich in The War Against the Jews (1975).
From 2,000,000 to 4,000,000 Leading Israeli expert on the subject, Yehuda Bauer, in his 1982 book The History of the Holocaust. However, in the 1989 edition, Bauer already gives a different figure: 1,600,000. At the same time, in an article published in the Jerusalem Post, Bauer admitted that "higher numbers of victims have been refuted for many years, but these data have not yet been brought to the attention of the public ".
1,500,000 In 1995, the then President of Poland, Lech Walesa, named such a figure, referring to the research conducted by the staff of the Auschwitz Museum. She "replaced" the previously considered official number of 4,000,000, which was erased from the monument erected in Auschwitz back in 1990. At the same time, information about one and a half million victims of Auschwitz was published in the Washington Times and the London Daily Telegraph.
1,250,000 Historian Raul Hilberg in his 1985 book, The Destruction of European Jewry. According to Hilberg, of all the people who died in Auschwitz, about a million were Jews.
1,000,000 Jean-Claude Pressac in his 1989 book Auschwitz: Technique and Operation of the Gas Chambers. It is interesting to note that he wrote this book as a polemic with Holocaust-denying revisionist historians, who were precisely questioning the number of people who died in Auschwitz.
From 775,000 to 800,000 Pressack's revised data included in his 1993 book Auschwitz Crematoria: Mechanisms of Mass Murder. Of this death toll, 630,000 were Jews, according to Pressac.
135,000 to 140,000 Data from the International Search Service of the Red Cross, based on twice-daily roll calls of Auschwitz prisoners.
73,137 (of which 38,031 Jews) This figure was first given by The New York Times on March 3, 1991, based on the archives known as the Books of the Dead of Auschwitz. These 46 volumes of the "book" were seized by soldiers of the Red Army at the end of the war and kept in the Soviet archives until 1989, when they were handed over to the Red Cross. These "books" contain all the death certificates of all camp prisoners, indicating the full name, profession and religious affiliation of the deceased, as well as the date and place of birth, previous place of residence, parents' names, time and cause of death, which was established by the camp doctor. In general, according to the German archives, the number of deaths in all German concentration camps in the period from 1935 to 1945. is 403,713 people, and this number includes representatives of all races and peoples, as well as those who died of typhus and other infectious diseases or who died of their own death from old age.
This is how the "scatter" of numbers and opinions turns out, but in any case, no self-respecting historian today allows himself to name the figure of 4 million. Why, then, one asks, in this simple arithmetic problem, the total number of Jews killed during the war has not yet been revised and still remains at the level of 6 million?
As mentioned above, practically all Jewish organizations, from public to government in Israel, are vitally interested in preserving and maintaining this myth. Banks are also interested in this, pumping out billions in compensation for millions of victims.
For these reasons, it is unlikely that it will be possible to establish the exact number of victims, and, in fact, they are not the point. No one is going to justify the atrocities of the Nazis or discount the suffering and horrors experienced by those who fell into their hands. But the falsification of the history of the Second World War and the manipulation of the number of people who died in fascist concentration camps for their own selfish interests is, in fact, a desecration of the memory of those who really fell victim to the "brown plague". Including, of course, over the memory of the Jews killed by the Germans.
Recently, Russian nationalists have again begun to widely disseminate anti-Semitic myths and fakes about the alleged "salvation" of Jews during the Second World War.
This is a lie from beginning to end - in 1941-1945. 60% of the Jewish population of the USSR was destroyed - almost 3 million Jews, and in the occupied territories the Jewish population was destroyed almost without exception - 97%
see Holocaust in Russia
There was no genocide of the Jewish people on such a scale in any of the countries occupied by the Nazis. In contrast, in completely occupied France, the Nazis managed to exterminate only 25% of French Jews. These figures eloquently speak of the "contribution" of the population of the USSR to the extermination of their Jewish fellow citizens.
Another fake that has received the widest distribution in today's Russia is the widespread lie there about the alleged non-participation of Jews in the war.
This brazen lie is easily refuted by facts and documents, testifying to the great contribution to the Victory made by the Jewish citizens of the USSR. This contribution is many times greater than the percentage of Jews in the population of the USSR.
More than 500 thousand Jews fought in the ranks of the Red Army, 167 thousand of them were officers. More than 200 thousand Jewish soldiers and officers died in the battles
I summarized some data about the Jews in the Red Army during the Second World War and this is the picture

The title of Hero of the Soviet Union was awarded to 157 Jewish soldiers, three Jews - Commander-in-Chief of the Air Force of the Red Army, Lieutenant General Smushkevich, Colonel General. tank. Troops Dragoon and Marshal armored. Katukov troops - received this title twice, 14 more became full holders of the Order of Glory, which was equated to the title of Hero. In terms of one hundred thousand Jewish population, 6.83 Heroes are obtained. Only the Russians are ahead - 7.66 Heroes per hundred thousand, then, after the Jews, Ukrainians go - 5.88 and Belarusians - 4.19.
In total, the title of Hero was posthumously awarded to 45 Jewish soldiers, that is, almost a third of those awarded this title, eight more died, having already become Heroes in the course of further battles.
The Jewish heroes were distributed as follows:
private and non-commissioned officers - 39,
junior officers - 71,
senior officers - 33,
generals - 6
and one civilian - the secretary of the Minsk underground city committee of the CPSU, the head of the sabotage group I. Kazinets. On March 27, 1942, he was captured by the Gestapo. Shooting back, he killed two fascists and wounded three. He was tortured for a long time, his eyes were gouged out, but he did not betray anyone or anything. On May 7, Isai Kazinets was hanged in the city square. The title of Hero was awarded to him ... May 8, 1965.
http://ilsys.net/Alex_N_Studio/hero/list.asp
According to the types of troops, the alignment of the Jewish Heroes is as follows:
infantrymen - 36,
artillerymen and mortarmen - 38,
pilots - 28,
tankers - 21,
political workers - 12,
sappers - 7,
sailors - 6,
signalmen - 1,
underground workers - 1.
Of the 157 - exactly two-thirds (106 people) came from working-class families, 12 - from peasants, the rest, as they say, commoners. Among the Heroes, there is one orphanage, a village teacher and even an artist, a member of the Union of Artists of the USSR
The awarding of the title of Hero of the Soviet Union to Jews was associated with various anti-Semitic discriminatory restrictions.
Many Jews did not receive high awards only because of the anti-Semitic policy of the Soviet authorities.
So, during the war years, Matrosov’s feat was repeated by four Jews, and ordinary Abram Levin lay down with his chest on the embrasure a year before Matrosov, on February 22, 1942, during the liberation of the Kalinin region (he was awarded the Order of the Patriotic War of the 1st degree posthumously ... after 15 years), and the sergeant Tovye Rise managed to stay alive, although he received 18 wounds, and was awarded the Order of Glory III degree.
14 Jewish pilots accomplished the feat by directing their wrecked aircraft at a concentration of enemy troops:
Isaac Zinovievich Preisaizen,
Isaac Moiseevich Betsis,
Isaac Abramovich Irzhak,
Zinovy Abramovich Levitsky,
Isaak Davydovich Shvartsman,
Ilya Borisovich Katunin,
Israel Kapelevich,
Victor Chernyavsky and others.
The title of Hero was awarded only to two - I. Katunin, obviously, due to the ambiguity of the nationality of his last name and Shik Kordonsky - only in 1990 (!) Year, although the entire squadron was witness to his feat on September 28, 1943.
Jewish pilots who committed aerial ramming
Among all types of air combat during the Second World War
the most mysterious and exciting is the air ram.
Asin Vladimir Naumovich, senior lieutenant, and Beletsky Abram Isaakovich, major of the guard, were seriously wounded during ramming, and each of them lost both legs. After the hospital, they returned to service and fought until the Victory.
Binov Lev Isaakovich, Major of the 512th Fighter Aviation Regiment. September 19, 1942 on the outskirts of Stalingrad rammed a German fighter plane. On his damaged aircraft, wounded, he landed. After being cured, he continued to fly and died in an air battle in January 1943.
Butman Ion Vladimirovich in January 1942 on the Karelian front shot down a German plane with a ram attack.

Grul Simkha Grigoryevich - junior lieutenant. On October 9, 1941, in the sky near Moscow, he shot down an enemy plane with a ram attack,
Krivoshein Sergey Mikhailovich, junior lieutenant, flight commander

1941 a German bomber rammed on the Central Front. Landed by parachute. September 2, 1942 did not return from a combat mission. Sergei is the nephew of the Hero of the Soviet Union, Lieutenant General Krivoshein Semyon Moiseevich.

Radicher Lev Sergeevich, pilot of the 728th Fighter Aviation Regiment, was born in 1923 in the village. Obukhovo Moscow region On August 23, 1943, on the approaches to the city of Chuguev, he was rammed by a German fighter and died.
Tabatadze Moses Efimovich, junior lieutenant. Pilot of the 160th Fighter Aviation Regiment, born in 1921 in Borjomi (Georgia). July 9, 1941 in the Smolensk sky rammed an enemy plane and died.
Ushatsky Lev Vulfovich; junior lieutenant, deputy squadron commander of the 926th Fighter Aviation Regiment, was born in 1916 in Petrograd. September 17, 1943 at the station. Bologoe, Kalinin region, was rammed by a German bomber.

Shimanchik Lev Leonidovich, foreman, pilot of the 164th Fighter Aviation Regiment, was born in 1922 in Minsk. In April 1943, a German reconnaissance aircraft rammed on the Western Front. The injured pilot landed on the damaged plane.
A hero was not given to any Jewish pilot who committed an aerial ramming! Let me remind you that Viktor Talalikhin, who rammed a German plane in the sky near Moscow on August 7, 1941, was awarded the title of Hero literally the very next day.
The shameful fact of Soviet state anti-Semitism was the deprivation of the title of Hero of the Soviet Union of 6 Jews.
Departure for permanent residence in Israel led to the deprivation of the title of Hero of the Soviet Union and the deprivation of all military awards from four Jews: V. Vilenkis, M. Grabsky, M. Felsenstein and K. Shuras.
As part of the anti-Semitic campaign for the "fight against cosmopolitanism" in 1953, Hero of the Soviet Union Lev Gitman was slandered and sentenced to ten years in the camps and deprivation of all government awards "for theft of state property, namely, scraps of sheet metal for a total of 8 rubles 67 kopecks »
Hero of the Soviet Union Yefim Lev was stripped of all his military decorations in 1961. At that time, well-known trials for so-called "economic crimes" were going on in the USSR. Most of the accused in these trials were Jews. Many of them received death sentences.
12 Jewish soldiers were awarded Orders of Glory of all three degrees. These soldier orders were awarded for personal deeds and heroism. Here are their names: Leonid Davidovich Blat, Grigory Abramovich Bogorad, Semyon Meerovich Burman, Nikolai Lazarevich Gizis, Lev Davidovich Globus, Boris Naumovich Zamansky, Efim Lvovich Minkin, Vladimir Izrailevich Peller, Eduard Nisinovich Roth, David Markovich Sidler, Shmuel Ziskovich Shapiro, Semyon Elyashevich Schillinger.
Professor of the military academy M.V. Frunze, Colonel Fyodor Sverdlov, in the encyclopedic work "Jewish Warriors on the Fronts of the Great Patriotic War" gives data on the awards of Jews: "According to the Main Directorate of Personnel of the Ministry of Defense, in the most difficult years for the front in 1941 and 1942 (until October 5), they were awarded orders and medals The Union of the SSR has a total of 185,000 soldiers and officers, of which 127,000 are Russians, 33,000 Ukrainians, 5,500 Belarusians, and 5,200 Jews." All statistical calculations are given per 100,000 population. According to the first post-war census, 114 million Russians, 37 million Ukrainians, 7.9 million Belarusians, 2.3 million Jews lived in the country. Of these, about 500 thousand fought in the ranks of the army and navy. Consequently, the author concludes, for 100,000 of the population, Russian soldiers received 111.4 combat awards, Ukrainians - 89.2, Belarusians - 69.7, Jews - most of all - 226.
Further, the author cites, using the same methodology, the calculation of those awarded for the entire period of the war. The result is this: per 100,000 population - Russians - 5.4 thousand, Ukrainians - 4.6 thousand, Belarusians - 3.9 thousand, and Jews - 7 thousand.
That is, by the number of those awarded orders and medals of the USSR, Jewish soldiers took first place
