Debating the Holocaust: A New Look at Both Sides (Holocaust Handbooks) (Volume 32)

For many, the Holocaust is one of the most important events of the 20th century. It is also an event surrounded by controversy and mystery. Anyone who examines the Holocaust from an objective standpoint will likely begin asking themselves some important questions:

• Have key witnesses either falsified or greatly exaggerated important aspects of their stories?
• How did authorities establish as fact that ‘six million’ Jews died?
• What is the breakdown of the ‘six million’ figure?
• Why are there such large differences in expert estimates of Jewish deaths at the main camps?
• How could major death camps, like Belzec, Sobibor, Chelmno and Treblinka, vanish without a trace—along with the remains of most of their victims?
• How can masses of people be killed using cyanide gas? Or using the exhaust of diesel engines?
• Was there a ‘Holocaust order’ from Hitler authorizing the mass murder of the Jews?
• Do wartime air photos substantiate the traditional account of events?
• Why are there, even today, so many survivors?

A monumental debate is currently raging on these issues, but it is thoroughly censored. Here, for the first time, all the main arguments are discussed and examined. Here, the reader can be his own judge.
