The CODOH Revisionist Forum

From the middle of May 1944 to August 1944 it is said that some 434K to 437K Hungarians were brought to Auschwitz Birkenau to be gassed and burned in the 4 crematoria (46 retorts) and cremated outside in burn pits nearby Crematorium V.

Carlo Mattogno has covered this event extensively in his book ‘Open-Air Incineration’. This presentation is from a different perspective that should be mentioned and adds more fuel to the fire (pun intended) that the alleged event really did not happen. Mr. Mattogno presented convincing arguments to the nonsense of the official narrative. However, he made no mention to the deterioration of the refractory in his arguments in regard to the Hungarian alleged gas’n burn event at Auschwitz in spring/summer1944.

I will not discuss the outside burning of bodies in this posting.

This posting concerns the deteriorating effect on the refractory (Fire) brick lifespan wear and tear of the 46 retorts and flue systems at Auschwitz Birkenau by cremating so many bodies in such a short time period.
Gusen Toph ovens (2 retorts)

See the attachment concerning the replacement of the oven’s refractory change out. It shows that all the refractory needed to be changed out after about 1,450 cremation processes in each retort. Since both Gusen and Birkenau used Toph model ovens, it makes a good comparison.

Things to consider:

--Until mid-May 1944 the Birkenau ovens have already been in daily service for about a year

--Since the ovens were put into service, there is no documented replacement of any of the 46 ovens refractory

--No documented refractory brick replacement after August 1944

--I increase the number of processes to 2,000 before necessary replacement regardless of the Gusen Toph oven performance in 1941. I added an extra 500+ processes per retort.

Calculation attachments Danuta Czech

I have two attachments that details the variables and calculations based on the Hungarian extermination event.
One example I take, is the data of what Holocaust Historian Danuta Czech’s claim that 8,000 Hungarians were cremated in the 46 Birkenau retorts per day. (Mattogno, Open-Air Incinerations, P. 32).

8,000 / 46 retorts = 173.9 bodies per retort, per 24-hour day. Then 2,000 processes / 173 bodies = 11.5 days. Thus, the refractory due to high temperature related deterioration would have to be changed out about every 11.5 days if Danuta Czech’s claim is accurate.

I listed other daily capacity claims in the attachment. However, the take-away here is the refractory bricks in these 1940s era oven and flue system refractory could would not be able to cope with the wear and tear of cremating so many bodies is such a short time.

Please understand that your calculations are fundamentally incorrect. By that I mean that in Auschwitz time there are anything between 32 and 217 hours in a day. Thus the practical processing of bodies through each oven was variable depending on the time of the month, the number of train loads coming in (including those trains that went elsewhere as they were all included in the number of dead Hungarians) and the exaggeration factor which is essential to the holocaust story.

When you add in peripheral claims such as one body can be burned in 12 minutes and fifteen bodies could be stuffed inside one oven and they would burn even quicker, then you can do a calculation and arrive at a respectable estimate of between 400,000 and 1.6m Hungarians transported into Auschwitz, gassed and cremated all before afternoon tea on July 12th 1944.

It's very simple when you think about it, fantasize and lie.

Oh and one last thing is to realise that about 200,000 Hungarian jews appeared back in Hungary alive and well after the war as shown in the work of The Dissolution of European Jewry.

You do realize that there were 300 camps in Austria for Hungarian jews until 45. Peter Lantos and his family experienced that reality.

This posting has nothing to do with claimed throughput of the ovens, but the affects of so many cremation processes would have on the refractory lining inside the ovens

From the Topf & Sons engineers;

"The inner brick lining of the crematory chimneys in Auschwitz already started crumbling after half a year due to the colossal strain to which these crematoria were subject at the concentration camp."

Exterminationists claim about 30% of the Hungarian jews went out the chimney as smoke never to be seen or heard from again.

60% were put to work.

I find the claim that 30% were exterminated dubious when you have Hungarian jews, unable to work, in isolation in the medical wing for months, and when you have records reflecting transport of Hungarian jews to recovery camps.

Another point of interest I've recently come across is the 1,600 Hungarian jews released from Bergen Belsen and transported to Palestine. Someone named Saly Mayer procured their release from Belsen then they were transported by ship to Palestine. You can find information regarding this in memoranda from the 'refugees' file.

Here is someone in the know about the cremation and refractory bricks and deterioration of.
Some of the old timers here no doubt have seen this video with Ivan Lagace of Cananda.

Burn in the rain, May I mention the weather?
One other issue that is not taken into consideration much is if the Germans were indeed conducting burn pit operations outside, what affect will rain or even thunderstorms would have on the burn?

I know it does not rain everyday in southern Poland, but it does rain. What kind of mess would the Germans have on their hands. Potentially water, half burnt wet wood, half burnt bodies? Or they build the burn, and then it begins to rain? All the wood is wet, the bodies are wet, water at the bottom of all that mass of wood and human carcasses that are also 60 to 70% water? Wait till it all dries out and try again? Was everyday a good day for a burn?

If 434K to 437K went up in smoke in the said 6 weeks, absolutely no interruption can happen.
The attachment is the average precipitation for Krakow Poland. The Hungarian burn was said to have begun May 17, 1944 and lasted till August of that year. Now look at the average precipitation for Krakow. Was the weather a concern? From May to August, we are looking at a potential of 38 days of rain and over 1/4 of the time period of the alleged outside burn event
I will give a total of 110 days for the operation: 38 rain days / 110 days = 34.5% of the time period it could be rain?

Yahweh personally made sure that it did not rain during this period. This is how the Jews solve the problems and gaps in their myths. The more religious ones ask where God was in the Holocaust? And they answer that he was inside the ovens.
