Kula vs Tauber on "Kula columns"

[HansHill]

Bombsaway’s antics demonstrate the point nicely.

The columns require wholesale unsupported changes and additions to their core design to approach anything resembling a viable delivery, retaining, and retrieval mechanism.

This clowning around is a further exercise in demonstrating it.

[bombsaway]

The slots are a more reasonable mechanism than a merry go round, but no I don't think either are definitively contradicted by Kula's testimony.

You are literally the only person on the planet who believes in the slots and slopes nonsense.

I hardly believe my design is actually what existed in reality - it's pure speculation, so if you want to attack it on those grounds that's legit. But I've said this many times before. It's possible the methods changed, it's possible the testimonies were confused to some degree leading to improper interpretations, it's possible mechanisms were left out. I would never offer my diagram up as serious history. It was an exercise in showing general feasibility.

So ... you don't have a real position. You just know, in your heart, that there was some serviceable design, even though no one has any idea what it was. Okay.

If these things existed in physical reality, then the primary source descriptions, particularly that of Kula, should be essentially correct and you shouldn't need to make up something else.

Kula's description very well might be correct and the whole column was extracted. In that case Tauber would have likely witnessed a different method or made an error in his error description, it's all possible.

Kula's description very well might be fabricated and the whole column was nonexistent. In that case Tauber would have likely fabricated a different method or made an error in his error description, it's all possible.

[bombsaway]

Yeah like I've said, you've identified a particular aspect in Holocaust historiography where we have to speculate about what happened and why the testimonies diverge.

But why is this a problem? You believe in a mass event involving millions of people which is speculative from top to bottom.

[HansHill]

But why is this a problem?

Because the defense offered up by Markiewicz, Green, Van Pelt, and by extension every other Holocaust proponent against revisionists, hinges centrally on the device to operate in this fashion.

The pellets MUST be delivered, retained, and retrieved using this mechanism. Failure on any of these points has direct repercussions on HCN exposure time and the chemical analyses, as well as execution times, poison gas and body removal.

Stop pretending this is an incidental point that we are nitpicking over - everything hinges on this mechanism and we (you included) cannot explain it.

Everything meaning what? The killing of a million Jews at Auschwitz?
