A former German army officer testified for the defense, stating he arrived at Auschwitz in 1944 and only learned of mass Jewish deaths after the war. He claimed the camp was clean and described it as a happy work environment where he studied synthetic rubber production. According to him, there was no smell of burning flesh or evidence of gas chambers.

Zundel's defense team was informed that facilities in Poland could not support gas executions. Samples were taken and facilities were examined, concluding they were not suitable due to design flaws. Survivors' testimonies were questioned as lacking validity. No eyewitness reports were found to support gas chamber claims.

Mister Zundel's defense team examined facilities in Poland to determine if they could have supported gas executions. They found the facilities lacked necessary features for gas chambers, such as gasketed doors and proper ventilation. The design flaws made it impossible for the facilities to have been used for gas executions. Eyewitness reports of gassings were deemed unreliable, as there was no concrete evidence to support their claims.

Ivan Lageis, an expert in crematorium practices, testified about his experience as an embalmer, funeral director, and crematory manager/operator. He had worked with over 10,000 bodies and personally cremated over 1,000. Lageis used flowcharts and fire bricks to explain the cremation process. He then addressed claims about cremation capacity at Auschwitz-Birkenau. Referencing Raoul Hilberg's estimate of over 4,400 bodies per day in 46 retorts, Lageis stated this was preposterous. Based on his experience, he testified that a maximum of 184 bodies per day would have been possible. Regarding claims of 6,000-24,000 cremations per day, Lageis stated that such claims were irresponsible and physically unrealistic. He concluded that science dares to say the Holocaust, as we have heard it, is basically a hoax.

American industrial chemist Dr. William Lindsey testified about Zyklon B, stating its dangerous properties necessitate careful handling. Regarding a previous witness's claim of handling corpses shortly after gassing, Dr. Lindsey stated this was highly unlikely. He claimed mass gassings, as described, were impossible and that no one was willfully killed with Zyklon B in this manner. Dr. Lindsey also disputed earlier testimony about flames constantly emanating from crematoria chimneys, asserting such intense heat would cause the chimneys to collapse.

Speaker 0 explains that before going he told “mister Zundle and his defense team” that if he found facilities that could have supported executions, he would testify whether or not they could have sustained gas executions. He says photographs were produced and “the video photographer” documented that “the forensic samples … were properly taken, packaged for submission to the laboratories.” He states he examined the facilities and “made a determination that they were incapable of supporting the use of hydrogen cyanide gas for purposes of execution or otherwise.” He adds that “the reasons that I determined that these facilities were not or never could have been gas execution facilities are stated in my report.” He argues that “None of these ever existed” and that if used, “they would have been blown to bits.” He concludes with “there are no eyewitnesses because there were no gassings.”

Christie cross-examined witness Arnold Friedman about his nine-month stay at Auschwitz. Friedman testified he watched prisoners march toward the crematorium and saw smoke and flames from the smokestack. Under cross-examination, Friedman admitted he never witnessed mass executions and only guessed at what happened. He agreed the prisoners could have been marching out of the camp. Christie suggested many bodies burned at Auschwitz were Jews who died of disease and starvation. He questioned Friedman about what he saw and knew about crematoriums, suggesting cremation creates no such smoke or flames as Friedman described. Christie is trying to prove Zundel has reason to question accepted beliefs about the holocaust.

The gas chambers, the buildings claimed to be the gas chambers, still exist at two of the camps in Poland. The Zyklon b gas that is said to have been used leaves blue stains and traces on the walls. These are the Delousing chambers at Birkenau, at the Auschwitz Birkenau Camp. There is no blue staining on the walls, no zyclon b traces in the walls. The latches can be opened from the inside or the outside, as I am showing right here. You cannot lock somebody into this room. When the war was over in 1945, it was claimed that there were 22 camps that had gas chambers in them. The six million figure is already dead.

According to multiple experts, the facilities at Auschwitz, Birkenau, and Lublin were not capable of supporting mass executions using any lethal gas. Germa Rudolf's chemical analysis allegedly concluded that Hydrocyonic Acid was not used in buildings claimed to be homicidal gas chambers at Auschwitz. Walter Liftel's report stated that homicidal gassings were impossible for technical reasons. William B. Lindsay affirmed that no one was purposefully killed with cyclone B in that manner. Reports from the Krakow Forensic Institute and others corroborate these findings. Ground-penetrating radar at Treblinka allegedly revealed no ash or disturbance, suggesting mass graves never existed there. Charles Larsen found no evidence of death by poison gas in autopsies performed in German camps. No Prussian blue cyanide staining was found on walls in the alleged death chambers, only in delousing chambers. The Auschwitz Museum curator allegedly admitted that the Soviets altered a German bomb shelter after the war to create a homicidal gas chamber. The building presented as a gas chamber has features inconsistent with that purpose, such as a manhole escape hatch, a door that opens inward, and locks on the inside. Le Express acknowledged that everything about this gas chamber is false and that it is a deceitful postwar reconstruction. Olga Vorum Sarnikot stated Auschwitz had no gas chamber, and a fake chimney was built by the Soviets.

The gas chambers at two Polish camps can be examined, with evidence of Zyklon B gas usage visible in delousing chambers at Auschwitz. In contrast, the Mauthausen gas chamber shows no traces of Zyklon B, and its door cannot lock from the inside, making it impossible to confine victims. Historical claims about the number of camps with gas chambers have been revised over the years, with many camps in Germany and Austria investigated and found lacking evidence. The discussion touches on antisemitism and the brutality faced by individuals based on their ethnicity or beliefs. The figure of six million Jewish deaths has also been challenged, with official revisions significantly lowering the number of deaths at Auschwitz.

The speaker questions the claim that six million Jews perished in German concentration camps during World War II. They cite gas chamber doors that allegedly didn't lock, some made of wood with glass windows, arguing they weren't airtight and would have harmed the guards. They mention Fred Lukter's analysis of Auschwitz gas chamber walls, which supposedly found no cyanide residue. The speaker highlights the existence of soccer teams, a theater, sewing rooms, and swimming pools in the camps, questioning why these would exist if extermination was the goal. A 1944 International Red Cross report allegedly found no evidence of extermination installations at Auschwitz. The speaker claims Jewish population records before and after the war show no significant change. They state that autopsies on 270,000 bodies found the cause of death was typhus and starvation, not poison gas. They allege some cremation smokestacks had no soot and one chimney wasn't connected to the building. The speaker concludes that evidence was manipulated for propaganda and that questioning the Holocaust is taboo because the narrative falls apart under scrutiny.

Claims are made that proofs of the Holocaust are few, consisting mainly of eyewitness testimonies and postwar confessions, but no wartime documents detailing homicidal gas chambers. Evidence like piles of human hair, shoes, and clothing are explained as normal byproducts of camp conditions. Zyklon B was used for disinfection against typhus. Aerial photos of Auschwitz taken during the alleged period of nonstop killings do not show gassings or bodies being burned. Auschwitz's gas chamber appears to have been reconstructed after the war. Allied aerial photos contradict claims that Nazis camouflaged the gas chambers. Forensic examinations of gas chambers at Auschwitz showed almost no Zyklon B residue, unlike disinfestation chambers. An expert examined the facilities and determined they were incapable of supporting hydrogen cyanide gas executions due to design flaws: no gasketed doors, windows, or explosion-proof features. The design of the facilities made gassing impossible without killing the operators. Alleged eyewitness reports lack valid descriptions of gassings, suggesting there were no gassings.

The speaker challenges the historical narrative around Nazi extermination methods by asserting several counterclaims about the evidence and the revisions of the story over time. They claim that the carbon monoxide used at Treblinka allegedly came from a diesel engine, but argue that diesel engines do not produce enough carbon monoxide to kill people, implying that the story had to be changed. They note that Yad Vashem discussed this in 2019, but contend that the debunking of the diesel-engine theory occurred in the 1980s, and that the Nitzkor project responded by stating it was “just a 500 BHP engine from a captured Soviet tank,” accusing others of moving the goalposts whenever caught. The speaker then shifts to Zyklon B, asserting that it “was not meant to kill people, it was meant to kill bugs and keep the prisoners healthy and alive because they needed them,” portraying the chemical as primarily a pest-control agent rather than a genocide tool. Turning to Auschwitz, the speaker references a sympathetic photograph, then discusses propaganda about the number of victims. They state, “originally, the propaganda about Auschwitz was that five point five million were killed at Auschwitz,” and clarify that when they refer to Auschwitz, they are not talking about Birkenau but the initial Auschwitz gas chamber. Overall, the speaker presents a pattern of alleged revision and reinterpretation of Nazi-era facts, arguing that the narrative shifts whenever it is challenged, and contrasting widely cited figures and purposes with claimed alternative explanations. The emphasis throughout is on questioning the established account of how mass murder was carried out at Treblinka and Auschwitz and on attributing changes in the historical narrative to deliberate adjustments rather than new evidence.

Dr. Raul Hilberg, a renowned Holocaust expert, testified in the trial of Ernst Zendel and admitted that there is no scientific report proving the existence of gas chambers in Nazi concentration camps. He also stated that he couldn't confirm if any reports corresponded to the use of gas chambers. During cross-examination, Zendel's lawyer, Douglas Christie, questioned Hilberg about the credibility of eyewitness testimonies and the difficulty of assessing them after 40 years. The trial attracted a large audience, with people lining up outside the district court building to attend.

Bishop Williamson, are these your words? You claim that no Jews were killed in gas chambers and that the Holocaust is a lie. Yes, I believe the evidence strongly contradicts the claim that six million Jews were deliberately gassed. I think there were no gas chambers. Historical revisionists suggest that around 200,000 to 300,000 Jews died in concentration camps, but not from gassing. Fred Leuchter, an expert on gas chambers, concluded that the supposed gas chambers could not have functioned as claimed. He pointed out the lack of necessary safety features, like high chimneys, and the doors were not airtight. This is not antisemitism; it’s about historical truth based on evidence. Germany has paid significant reparations due to guilt over the Holocaust, but I don’t believe six million were gassed. I must caution you, discussing this could lead to legal issues in Germany.

During cross-examination, Christie questioned a key witness about his time at Auschwitz. The witness, Arnold Friedman, admitted he never saw mass executions, only guessing at what happened. Christie suggested bodies burned were from disease, not genocide. He challenged Friedman's claims of seeing smoke and flames from the crematorium, stating cremation doesn't produce such effects. Christie aims to challenge beliefs about the Holocaust.

In the afternoon, a former German army officer, Theiss Christofferson, testified for the defense. Christofferson was posted to Auschwitz in 1944. He claimed he only heard of mass Jewish deaths there after the war and that he never saw evidence of mass gassings. Christofferson testified that Auschwitz was a clean and happy work camp. He stated he was there in 1944 studying the production of synthetic rubber and talked to inmates almost daily. Testifying through an interpreter, Christofferson said the air at Auschwitz was very clean, with no smell of burning flesh and no evidence of gas chambers.

Ivan Lageys, a crematorium expert, discussed the cremation process and refuted claims about the capacity of crematories at Auschwitz Birkenau. He stated that the numbers claimed were physically unrealistic based on his experience, with a maximum of 184 bodies possible to cremate in a day. Lageys criticized claims of 6,000, 8,000, and 24,000 bodies being cremated daily as irresponsible and not based in reality, suggesting that the Holocaust may be a hoax.

Proofs of the Holocaust are few: 'Literally, all there is are the eyewitness testimonies and postwar confessions. There's no picture, plan, or wartime document dealing with homicidal gas chambers or a plan to exterminate the Jews.' After intercepting transmissions from Auschwitz, the speaker argues that the evidence has normal explanations: hair, shoes, and clothing reflect lice control and issued uniforms; Zyklon B was used to disinfect clothes and buildings; the typhus epidemic demanded strict lice control. Allied aerial photos of Auschwitz 'do not show people being gassed or bodies being burned.' He describes a building with four holes in the ceiling; revisionists say they were added later. 1988 Fred Lucher tests showed gas-chamber samples with 'almost no appreciable traces,' Krakow 1990 tests 'got back the same results.' The conclusion: 'there are no eyewitnesses because there were no gassings.'

- None of the facilities examined at Auschwitz, Birkenau, or Lublin could have supported or in fact did ever support multiple executions utilizing hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide, or any other allegedly or factually lethal gas. - Based upon very generous maximum usage rates for all the alleged gas chambers totaling some 1,693 persons per week and assuming these facilities could support gas executions, it would have required sixty eight years to execute the alleged number of 6,000,000 presses. - Promoting these facilities as being capable of affecting mass, multiple, or even singular executions is both ludicrous and insulting to every individual on this planet. - Hydrocyonic Acid was not used in the buildings alleged to have been homicidal gas chambers at Auschwitz. - I have come to the conclusion that no one was willfully or purposefully killed with cyclone B in this manner. I consider it impossible.

An American chemist, Dr. Lindsay, testified about the dangers of Zyklon B gas allegedly used in Auschwitz. He disputed claims of mass gassings and bodies being handled after gassing. Dr. Lindsay stated it was impossible for people to be killed with Zyklon B as described. He also refuted testimony about flames shooting out of crematoria chimneys, saying it would cause them to collapse.

I informed Mr. Zundel and his defense team that I would clearly state in my report if I found facilities capable of supporting gas executions. I brought the necessary equipment to document and measure the facilities in Poland. I took photographs and collected forensic samples, which were properly packaged for testing in the US. Based on my visual inspection, I concluded that these facilities were not suitable for hydrogen cyanide gas executions. The samples were corroborative evidence. The design and construction of the facilities did not meet the requirements for gas chambers, lacking features like gasketed doors, windows, and explosion-proof switches. Holocaust survivor accounts were not credible eyewitness reports as they did not provide accurate descriptions of gas chambers.

Speaker 0 and Speaker 1 discuss Nazi chemical capabilities and the use of Zyklon B. Speaker 0 states that Nazis had developed sarin gas and tabun, "nasty deadly nerve gases," and argues that the idea they would actually use Zyklon B, which was essential for maintaining health in the camps, is ridiculous. Speaker 1 agrees, saying it seems ridiculous and that “the whole story” appears ridiculous once examined. Speaker 1 adds that years ago they investigated because it was illegal, noting changes over time, and that they felt compelled to keep quiet. Speaker 0 then shifts to logistics, noting that there are documents on trains that came in, the amounts of coke used in the crematoria, and that everything is well documented, including the number of people who actually made it to Auschwitz. He mentions Red Cross–related deaths as part of the documentation but the sentence trails off: “The deaths by the Red Cross I think were put.”

The transcript presents an extensive compilation of claims from a group of speakers arguing that the established Holocaust narrative is false or exaggerated and that many historical incidents have been misrepresented or fabricated by Allied propaganda, Soviet influence, and Jewish-led organizations. The speakers frame Holocaust revisionism as a legitimate scholarly effort rather than denial, asserting that revisionists do not dispute that Jews and others suffered and died in the war, but dispute the scale, methods, and specifics of extermination. Key asserted points and claims - Holocaust definition and revisionism - The Holocaust is described as a belief that 6,000,000 Jews were murdered primarily by gassing in “shower rooms,” a narrative the speakers say is amplified by Hollywood, media, and schools. A growing movement of scientists, historians, engineers, journalists, and free-speech activists is portrayed as revisionist, though often branded as “Holocaust deniers” to discourage discourse. Revisionists are said not to deny persecution, deprivation of civil rights, deportation, internment, forced labor, or deaths in camps and ghettos, including deaths from disease; they also say that many victims died in ways other than genocide and that many victims’ dignity is not denied. - Internment and civilian camps in the United States - After Pearl Harbor, over 100,000 people of Japanese descent on the Pacific Coast were interned by Executive Order 9066; the text claims this restricted freedoms, required identity cards, and denied compensation or war reparations. The narrative includes accounts of interned individuals describing camp life, guard presence, and harsh conditions. - General wartime devastation and context - The war is described as a conflict that would not have occurred if “international jury” had not declared war on Germany in 1933, with emphasis on typhus, subversion, and crowded camps as drivers of disease and death. The speakers stress that millions died across battlefields, ships, and cities, and that propaganda surrounding German crimes obscures Allied or Soviet misdeeds. - Claims about typhus, gas chambers, and cremation - Typhus epidemics are said to explain many deaths in camps; Cyclone B (hydrogen cyanide) is claimed to have been used for delousing and pest control rather than execution, with several speakers arguing that gas chambers as homicidal devices did not exist or were technically infeasible. They assert there is no scientific proof of gassing, no German documents proving extermination plans, and that cremation and delousing procedures served health purposes rather than execution purposes. - Expert testimonies and forensics are cited (e.g., Leuchter, Rudolf, Lift, Lindsay) to support the claim that the gas chambers could not have functioned as execution facilities, noting technical impossibilities such as lack of explosion-proof features, gasketed doors, or proper gas delivery systems. - Specific camp narratives and testimonies - The camps are described as having been centers of labor, medical care, and even cultural activity, with accounts of weddings, births, nurseries, orchestras, libraries, theater performances, and recreational activities. Some testimonies describe attempts to maintain humanity and morale under harsh conditions, including a piano in Block 1, children’s art, and soccer games. - Several testimonies challenge the image of mass exterminations, claiming instead that most deaths resulted from disease, starvation, and Allied bombing, and that Red Cross and Vatican inquiries found no evidence of homicidal gas chambers. - A number of survivor testimonials are presented as quotations or paraphrases challenging the notion of mass murder in gas chambers, with some individuals denying personal knowledge of gas chambers or mass killings. - Documentary, legal, and scholarly disputes - The Institute for Historical Review (IHR) and other revisionist scholars are described as measuring and challenging the established narrative, sometimes facing legal or financial pressure. The transcript cites various researchers and forensics teams (e.g., Leuchter, Krakov, Farison, Groff, Farison, Larsson) as having concluded that homicidal gassings were not technically feasible in the cited facilities. - It is claimed that many postwar figures and witnesses provided testimonies or stories later recognized as unreliable or fabricated, including famous Holocaust survivors whose accounts are presented as inconsistent or false. Names and cases (e.g., Herman Rosenblatt, Anne Frank, Elie Wiesel) are invoked to illustrate alleged fraud or manipulation, though these claims contradict well-established historical records. - Propaganda, media, and the so-called “Holocaust industry” - The text asserts that the Holocaust narrative is used as a tool to enforce globalist policy, promote multiculturalism, and suppress nationalist sentiments among white Europeans. It claims that ongoing denazification efforts, legal penalties for questioning the Holocaust, and control over media and online platforms are designed to suppress dissent and promote a one-sided portrayal. - There is a claim that “atrocity propaganda” and black propaganda have been used to shape public perception, with references to Sefton Delmer and Allied psychological warfare, and accusations that postwar trials and media representations were heavily biased or manipulated. - Population counts, mortality figures, and documentary evidence - Several sections contest the veracity of the commonly cited death tolls, the reliability of Red Cross and other international communications, and the authenticity of diaries and eyewitness testimonies. The transcript asserts that the Nuremberg trials did not use physical or technical evidence to establish gas chamber existence and that some documents used as proof were mistranslated or contextualized wrongly. - The piece repeatedly emphasizes that millions of Jews did not die in the camps, that the “6,000,000” figure is a symbolic or religious number, and that high-profile Holocaust narratives are part of a constructed orthodoxy. - Final framing - The speakers position Holocaust revisionism as a defense of free speech and historical inquiry, arguing that questioning the official narrative is essential to truth. They claim laws against denial suppress inquiry and that truth should stand on its own merits without legal protection. They also suggest that conflicting accounts, forged documents, and political agendas have shaped the popular memory of World War II. Note on structure and tone - The transcript interweaves personal testimonials, expert opinions, documentary references, and polemical assertions. It repeatedly contrasts “revisionists” with conventional accounts, often asserting that mainstream portrayals are driven by propaganda, financial interests, or political goals. The overall thrust is to challenge the conventional understanding of the Holocaust, question the evidentiary basis for extermination claims, and highlight alleged inconsistencies in survivor narratives and official records.

Speaker 0 and Speaker 1 discuss the history of reported murder methods at Holocaust sites, emphasizing that much of what was claimed during the war and immediately after is now considered false or unsubstantiated. They note that Treblinka is a focal point for what they describe as witness testimony chaos and ideas that “anything goes” in early claims, not just for Treblinka but as a pattern across camps. Speaker 1 lists a variety of methods that were claimed at the time: death by steam; death by a vacuum (pumping air out of a chamber to suffocate); chlorine; engine exhaust gas claims; electrocution; killing with a delayed-action poison gas that would numb people who could still walk to mass graves and fall over them; mass gas chambers on a track where victims would roll over mass graves and be deposed through opening floors; a death bridge where people climbed onto a scaffold and were shot to death. He also mentions Belzec, where there were claims that people were murdered by defecation pits, with other Jews made to defecate on them until suffocation. Speaker 0 comments that these descriptions do not seem practical as methods of killing. He reiterates Treblinka as a major example of “testimoniel anarchism” and “whatever you can come up with” in the wartime and immediate postwar period. He observes that the narrative that exists today is completely different from that chaotic testimony. Speaker 1 notes further varieties, including chlorinated lime in trains that would kill people, and asserts that there are many such ideas that were invented when discussing homicidal gas chambers in encyclopedias. He mentions a chart showing “what was claimed once and what is still there?” as a reference to dropped death claims. He asks how the narrative moved from the chaotic, testimonial stage to the streamlined version presented today, in which Treblinka’s victims are said to have been killed with diesel engine exhaust. He adds that diesel exhaust is “technically impossible” because mainstream historians now acknowledge that diesel does not contain enough carbon monoxide to kill in the way claimed, implying that the diesel claim could not have been the mechanism. Overall, the speakers describe a shift from a wide array of war-and-postwar claims about murder methods at camps to a different, more uniform narrative, and they question how that transition occurred, especially regarding Treblinka and the claim of diesel exhaust.
