Clearly, any claim about trollies on rails in any Krema other than Krema I is wrong. Have you got a named eyewitness who worked inside Kremas II or III who said there was a trolley on rails?
No, it is a common sense check, especially when dealing with highly unreliable revisionist claims. Vrba's evidence is hearsay, so him getting mixed up is not an issue.
So you think the V/W report is complete rubbish? Ok, great. You agree with revisionists.
In the foreword to the report it says, "No individual impressions or judgments are recorded and nothing is passed on from hear-say." I suppose you are conceding that this was a lie.
I have noticed you have a tendency to play down Vrba and say he wasn't an eyewitness, but in fact he claimed that he could see the Kremas from the mortuary in block 27 and says that he saw the SS men dropping in the Zyklon. He also claimed to have personally counted all the transports, etc.
He did not claim to have personally entered the Birkenau Kremas however he says he was in direct contact with the Sonderkommandos so his account would be very close to first-hand. And in his memoir he specifically mentions Filip Mueller as one of his sources.
Q. Sure. I now produce and show to you a diagram which came from, I suggest, your War Refugee Report of 1944 in which you depicted a crematoria. Correct?
A. That’s right.
Q. Is it accurate?
A. This I cannot say. It was said that as we were not in the large crematoria, we reconstructed it from messages which we got from members of the Sonderkommando working in that crematorium, and therefore, that approximately how it transpired in our mind, and in our ability to depict what we have heard.
Q. That is what you depicted, though?
A. Yes.
Q. And it is accurately depicting what you depicted?
A. That’s right. It is accurately depicting what I heard that it might look like. (Zundel Trial, Transcript page 1260)
So, he talked to the Sonderkommandos and he came away with a track and trolley cars.
