THE FORENSICS REPORT THAT CHANGED HISTORY

ON THE OCCASION OF THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY.

_The Barnes Review _is honored to issue a new, revised edition of the
famous “Leuchter Reports.” Fred Leuchter’s expert engineering
evidence is overwhelming. There were no execution gas chambers at
Auschwitz, Birkenau or Majdanek. It is clear that the alleged gas
chambers at the inspected sites could not have been then, or now,
utilized or seriously considered to function as homicidal gas
chambers. This is good news for Jews, Gypsies and others, because it
means there was no holocaust after all—in a way, this is akin to
saving many millions of lives. So why was Leuchter so viciously
attacked for reporting his scientific findings?

BY GERMAR RUDOLF

In February 1988, Fred Leuchter Jr., in the 1980s America’s only
expert for execution technologies, was asked by the defense team of
German-Canadian Ernst Zündel to go to the infamous Auschwitz and
Majdanek concentration camps in Poland to verify whether or not the
facilities actually used gas to kill inmates by the thousands—if not
millions. He agreed to do this and write an expert report about his
findings, to be used in a Canadian court of law where Zündel was
being tried for “holocaust denial” at that time.

Before Leuchter went to Poland, he was a firm believer in all he had
been taught in school and through books and the mass media. But when
he looked into the evidence, he changed his mind. A few months later
he described his conversion succinctly as follows:

1 “1988 was a very informative and likewise disturbing year. I was
appalled to learn that much of what I was taught in school about
20th-century history and World War II was a myth, if not a lie. I was
first amazed; then annoyed; then aware: The myth of the holocaust was
dead.”
 

NO END OF THE MYTH

Such declarations of victory over the myth were quite frequent in
those days immediately after the release of _The Leuchter Report_.
But unfortunately it turned out that the last part of this statement
was a “myth” itself, because 25 years later, the holocaust myth is
very much alive. As a matter of fact, it can be argued that it has
even gained in momentum and persuasive power—but not because the
evidence presented for it has become more convincing. It was the
increased propaganda output on all levels —media, schools, politics,
academia —combined with an ever-increasing societal persecution and
illegitimate, though nevertheless “legal,” prosecution of all
dissidents that has stifled many Revisionist efforts to correct and
destroy this myth.

There are many reasons why Leuchter’s work or any of the others that
followed it—this writer’s own expert report included,

2 which followed in his footsteps—did not cause the myth to
collapse—or at least not so far. The most important is that the
powers that be simply build a major part of their power on the
psychological control of the masses by setting the standards for Good
and Evil, where “Auschwitz”—or rather the events this moniker
stands for—denotes the absolute zero, the absolute evil. Challenging
this upsets the way our modern post-WWII world is rigged, so it
won’t happen without a fight. Hence we revisionists have been and
are being fought fiercely by these powers and their lackeys.

But there is another reason why Leuchter and his ghostwriter Prof.
Robert Faurisson did not ring in the end of the current world order,
and this lies in the fact that _The Leuchter Report _simply wasn’t
bulletproof. Indeed, it had so many flaws that the opponents of
revisionism had a heyday in taking it apart and gloating over its
discrepancies and deficiencies.

In all fairness, this had to be expected. After all, Leuchter had no
in-depth knowledge of what he was investigating, and he had only a few
weeks to get at least a superficial idea about the issues involved.
But he did get one thing right: If we want to understand what was
going on at Auschwitz, Majdanek and many other places of the claimed
judeocide, we need to apply standard forensic methods as they are used
in any murder investigation, and Leuchter was the first to do exactly
this.

By so doing, he laid his fingers in a festering wound of orthodox
historiography, which, up to that point, had been content to merely
uncritically regurgitate anecdotal evidence of individuals who claim
that they had been there and had seen it all. 

Leuchter’s work may have been wanting, but its flaws invited the
opponents to deal with it. They made _The Leuchter Report _a part of
their news—bad news, admittedly, but as we all know, there is no
good news like bad news—so the Revisionists at least got attention
and, for a short while they could no longer be completely hushed up.
As a result, many more people pricked up their ears and started
listening. Walter Lüftl, in those early post-Leuchter years the
president of the Austrian Chamber of Engineers, was one of them. He
said to me once that, if you want to stir a public debate on a topic
that those in power want to hush up, you have to include a few
mistakes in your work so that your enemies will pick it up, drag it
into the public arena, and gloat over the mistakes.

That’s what they did with Leuchter’s work, and that was a mistake
on their part.

The idea that the holocaust has yet to be the subject of real,
forensic, critical scrutiny caught on in many circles around the
world. Ever since, a growing number of people have chipped in to widen
the scope and scale of such research, to deepen its reach, and to
improve and solidify the results.

So the story is far from over. Leuchter started it, and despite all
the persecution that resulted from it for him and for those who
preceded or followed him, they all keep on fighting. As Fred Leuchter
stated five years ago: “The harder the fight the tougher we get.”

CRITICAL EDITION

In the summer of 1989, I managed to get a copy of David Irving’s
edition of _The Leuchter Report_. Back in those years my command of
the English language was rather inferior, so I had to sit down and
translate it with a dictionary in my hands in order to understand what
it said. The result both amazed and unsettled me in more than one way.
I went through a similar experience as Leuchter has summarized in my
initial quote. But I also recognized a number of profound mistakes,
and as my knowledge of the topics increased over the months with every
book I read about it—foremost Jean-Claude Pressac’s 1989 tome on
Auschwitz4 

—I realized that this wasn’t the final word on the matter. Hence I
started doing my own research.
 

After many years of my own forensic research and revisionist
publishing activities, I decided in 2005 that Leuchter’s work
deserved to be re-published in a second edition—all of his four
reports, actually. But considering all the weaknesses that had been
discovered in his first report on Auschwitz and Majdanek over the
years, such a new edition needed to be improved. I didn’t want to
mess with the original text, though, which by then had become a
historic icon itself. I merely included numerous footnotes with
corrections, explanations, and further source material, and added a
brief discussion of some of the issues raised by Leuchter. 

I am glad that _The Barnes Review _under the aegis of Willis Carto
has now issued a third edition, which has been brought up to date with
the current state of research. Equipped with all the improvements of
this third, revised edition, _The Leuchter Report _is as sharp a
weapon in the fight for truth as it was 25 years ago.
 

On the occasion of the 25th anniversary, _The Barnes Review _is
honored to issue a new, revised edition of the famous _Leuchter
Reports. _
