Description

From 1940 to 1943, Rudolf Hƶss was the commandant of the infamous Auschwitz Camp. Todayā€™s orthodox narrative has it that during this time some 500,000 people were murdered in that camp. Yet when Hƶss was captured after the war, he confessed to having killed some 2,500,000 during that time. 40 years later, it was revealed that Hƶss had been severely tortured by his captors right after his arrest in March 1946. But what does that mean for the veracity of what Hƶss told in his various post-war statements?

Using various British documents, the author of the present study pieces together an almost minute-by-minute recounting of how the British managed to find Hƶss in his hiding place, and how they abused him after his capture to extract various ā€œconfessionsā€ from him.

To separate truth from fiction, the author next presents essential excerpts from all the statements made by Hƶss after his capture: 85 individual documents in total (affidavits, memos, essays, interrogation protocols, etc.). By analyzing them meticulously, he demonstrates that Hƶssā€™s statements about the so-called ā€œFinal Solution of the Jewish Questionā€ contradict one other and are refuted by historical facts established by solid documentation and material evidence. Hƶss, the author concludes, initially ā€œwas a coerced liar, but then he found a taste for the grandiloquent lie.ā€
