Holocaust Deniers - Need to Be Force-Read 'Doctors From Hell'

Denver Post columnist Vincent Carroll, this past Sunday, extolled the efforts of his aunt,   Vivien Spitz,  to get the word out about the horrific Nazi medical experiments, as she documented in her book, Doctors from Hell. He noted she especially was energized in 1987, after reading in The Denver Post of a German Language Arts teacher who actually referred to the Holocaust as the "Holo-hoax'.  In addressing her Denver suburb high school class the teacher was actually quoted as saying: "Some say holocaust, some say holo-hoax".

Right! But I say that those who declare  "holo hoax" are ignorant fools (revealing themselves as such), who merit no input into any serious historical discussions. Their opinions aren't worth even an ounce of doggie lickspittle. That includes those like the character Robert Sungenis, responsible for the pseudo-science travesty 'The Principle' (previous blog post), which proposes the Sun revolves around the Earth. Well, anyone who disputes the Holocaust has already lost all credibility in any other venue, including scientific. 

Anyway, as Carroll notes, seeing this baloney - and coming from the mouth of a teacher (who ought to know better) spurred Vivien Spitz to not only go on an educational circuit to show teachers and students what happened, but to write a book about her experience at the Nuremberg War Crimes Trials.  An expert at manual and machine shorthand, Ms. Spitz was recruited by the War Department in 1946, to provide a record of the trial of the Nazi war criminals. These transcripts would later be put to use providing presentations to groups across the country: schools, churches, veterans organizations, bar associations and civic organizations. Ms. Spitz felt, after her 1987 wake-up call people could not be allowed to forget what happened, lest it happen again.

The book, meticulous in its detail, is not for the squeamish - but then neither are the actual autopsy photos and records of the Kennedy assassination. Historical validity and nicey-nice often don't go together, and those who want their history neat and tidy are usually the ones left out in the cold as to actual history. They are the ones who continue to be gamed and spinned by those who would alter it for their own agendas.

I was already familiar with a lot of the infamous Nazi medical experiments thanks to video documentaries such as detailed in "The Holocaust Testaments".  These narrow in on each major concentration camp- from Auschwitz, to Birkenau, to Dachau, Buchenwald and Ravensbruck, to show what was done to hapless men, women and children.

In the Auschwitz record, for example, one beholds a 12 year old boy who's  been infected with Leprosy and the results after just 6 weeks. In another segment, one watches with heart break as the bandages are removed from a 10 year old girl's foot, showing blackened flesh - after she had been forced to stand ten hours in freezing temperatures. In yet another segment, a 9 year old boy is unable to exercise or move either of his arms - they had been amputated and replaced with the arms of a 9 month old infant.

As Carroll observes:

"The bone, muscle and nerve regeneration experiments - and incredibly, bone transplantation- were among the most savage, sadistic and inhumane."

 He also refers to others including: infecting prisoners with typhus, lathering prisoners' arms with a phosphorus mixture and igniting it, immersing prisoners - including children - in ice water, to see how long they could survive, and forcing them to drink sea water for days on end to see how long they could live off it before their kidneys were destroyed.

Other experiments, summarized in Ms. Spitz' book (pp. 44-46) included:

- High altitude experiments, carried out in a low pressure chamber in which the victims were suddenly exposed to extremely low atmospheric pressures such as would be experienced at Everest, for example, and even higher (up to 68,000 ft.) with the subjects then dying in horrible agony.

- Mustard gas experiments, with wounds directly inflicted on the exposed flesh of men, women and children using a mustard agent, and then the doctors documenting how long each took to die in agony.

- Sulfanilimide experiments: to determine the efficacy of drugs, exposing victims to a range of diseases: tetanus, streptococcus, and gas gangrene - with wood shaving and ground glass later forced into the wounds.

- Nerve regeneration experiments, in which living nerves were actually removed from victims causing intense agony and debility, and often agonizing death.

- Sterilization experiments, with victims subjected to sterilization by x-rays, various surgeries or drugs, causing great mental and physical anguish.

- Poison experiments: Poisons, including strychnine and arsenic, were secretly administered to experimental subjects in their foods leading to death - after which autopsies were performed.

- De-fleshing and skeleton collection: to create skeletons for display by the Nazi doctors over 1200 Jewish men, women and children were selected, killed and de-fleshed for skeleton preparation - with the specimens sent to the Reich University.

Meanwhile, in the Holocaust Testaments (Auschwitz) one also found:

- Removal of skin for chairs, and art 'canvas':   In this case the selected bodies of certain gassed victims had their skin later removed and used to form the fabric for chairs - generally by the particular concentration camp Kommandant - and also for "art" canvas, with the art often pornographic.

- Bodies of fetuses (expelled by their mothers in the gas chambers) designated for autopsies.

Yes, one beholds a true 'House of Horror's created by these Nazi doctors.  All documented, and in meticulous detail. So much that no rational person can counter its truth by confecting any kind of fulsome rejoinder or nonsense,   that it "never happened" or that  it's all a "holo -hoax".

Vivien Spitz wrote:

"I would spend the rest of my life trying to recover from what I had heard and written.. From that point on I would no longer tolerate any bigotry.

Meanwhile, the best prescription for Holocaust deniers like Robert Sungenis would be to have 'Doctors from Hell'  force -read to them while they're tied down. Then, afterwards, show them the Holocaust Testaments on an endless loop with eyelids taped open - like Alex in "Clockwork Orange".

Horrific torture? Too terrible for these fuckers? Hardly!  This conditioning is nowhere near the level of what the Nazi doctors from Hell inflicted on their innocent victims.  And look at it this way, at least the deniers aren't being imprisoned for ten years as they would be in Austria or Germany!

Another Mockumentary: Holocaust Denial Blends With Creationist Codswallop

The news on salon.com that physicist Lawrence Krausse and former Star Trek actress Kate Mulgrew were integrated into an asinine  pseudo-science documentary, entitled ‘The Principle’ (what I call a mockumentary)  caught many people by surprise. Surprise that idiots are still peddling this geocentric bunkum – that the Sun revolves around the Earth and not vice versa, and also that a prominent Holocaust denier named Robert Sungenis was behind it.

 

Anyway , it has been reported to be narrated by “Star Trek” alum Kate Mulgrew. Now the actress, who played “Star Trek’s” Capt. Kathryn Janeway, has come out publicly on her Facebook  page to distance herself from the film. Ms. Mulgrew’s FB post stated:

 

“I understand there has been some controversy about my participation in a documentary called THE PRINCIPLE. Let me assure everyone that I completely agree with the eminent physicist Lawrence Krauss, who was himself misrepresented in the film, and who has written a succinct rebuttal in SLATE. I am not a geocentrist, nor am I in any way a proponent of geocentrism.

 

More importantly, I do not subscribe to anything Robert Sungenis has written regarding science and history and, had I known of his involvement, would most certainly have avoided this documentary. I was a voice for hire, and a misinformed one, at that. I apologize for any confusion that my voice on this trailer may have caused. Kate Mulgrew”

Her reference to Prof. Lawrence Krausse refers to the fact he also had somehow  been snagged into a pseudo-appearance on this travesty, along with several other scientists to appear in the trailer. Since being alerted of this perfidy Prof. Krauss wrote a response piece in Slate in which he lambasted geocentrism and stated that he did not know how the clips of him were obtained.  He wrote:

“Even after being inured to such things, I was surprised to learn of the premise of the film, until I learned that its producer also apparently questions the Holocaust. It is tempting to say that both claims are obscene nonsense, but I believe that does a disservice to the word nonsense.”

 

‘The Principle’ follows along  the typical moronic lines of approach displayed in piffle such as the work of Young Sun- Young Earth aficionado, Jason Lisle.  That is, ignore all the scientifically discounting  evidence in favor of ancient tracts – scribbled by semi-literate peasants and sheep herders.

Both the ‘Young Sun- Young Earth’ and geocentric perspectives are those of firm pseudo-scientific knuckle draggers in the creationist mold. Both are made up nonsense extracted from Genesis. However,  the geocentric bilge probably beats the former by a hair in terms of having the most bull pockey.  The reason is that anyone who’s been exposed to the most basic Newtonian mechanics (usually taken in high school physics – at least it used to be) would know that the primary and more massive object always  attracts the less massive with a greater force of attraction, according to Newton's law of gravitation.

 The force of attraction of a  large mass M for a less massive orbiting object, m , is equal to the centripetal force:

 
GMm/R² = m v²/R

Here m is the mass of the planet and R its distance, while M is the mass of the Sun.

 

Now the Earth’s mass is 6 x 10 ²⁴ kg and Sun’s mass M = 2 x 10 ³⁰ kg.

 The centripetal acceleration with which the Earth ‘falls’ toward the Sun’s center is then found by solving for a = v²/R  or:

a =   GM/R² =  

  (6.7 x 10 ^-11 Nm²/ kg ²) (2 x 10 ³⁰ kg )/  (1.5 x  10 ¹¹ m) ²  =

 

5.9 x  10 ^{- 3} ms^{- 2} 

Thus the unbalanced attractive force is on the side of the vastly more massive (by 330,000 times) Sun. Hence, like a massive (200 lb.) human swinging a much lighter child (50 lb.) around at the end of a rope, the Sun exerts the dominant central force. 

 Sungenis’ bunkum, then,  makes about as much sense as claiming that a fifty pound child can swing  a 200 pound adult around at the end of a rope and dictate the adult’s  circular motion. It is total irredeemable idiocy that only confirmed  idiots  and semi-educated fools could believe.

 It is unclear how much Ms. Mulgrew knew before she signed up, but it is possible she could have been told any old lies or story to get her onboard, including that it would be a “scientifically educational presentation like ‘Cosmos’” These sort of degenerates – like Holocaust deniers- will say anything to push their  crap onto the unsuspecting or enlist their support. As for Prof. Krauss and the other scientists, we know the copy and paste motif exists in video as well as in still images, so that Sungenis could have grabbed pieces of other presentations from anywhere (say PBS series) then spliced them into his grab bag of bollocks.

 

The cautionary tale in all of this is that we need people - especially celebrities and scientists-  to be wary and suspicious before they accept a role for any claimed "scientific" documentary. The knuckle draggers will stop at nothing to push their lies or recruit whoever they can to help push them.
