Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Holocaust Almanac: Treblinka & Historical Error Followup-To: alt.revisionism Organization: The Nizkor Project, Vancouver Island, CANADA Keywords: Treblinka,Sachar The following citation provides an example of the importance of accurate research. It is clear from other published reports that Treblinka had been dismantled prior to the arrival of Soviet troops. Thus the information below cannot be correct. Nizkor would like to thank Tom Moran for pointing out this error. For further information about the dismantling of the camp at Treblinka, we recommend orgs/israeli/yad-vashem/yvs.camps.04. My thanks to Tom Moran for pointing out the monumental errors in the following text. knm. 1996/12/08 "When the Russians took over the Treblinka complex and the nearly dead survivors had recovered sufficiently to communicate, the tales that they poured out were not limited to the horrors they had endured. These called for no review. There was no lack of physical evidence on display, the suffocated bodies in recently arrived cattle cars, the abandoned instruments of torture and death, the files and records that the Germans had so carefully maintained. It was the repeated tales of senseless cruelty that increased the Russian fury; mothers obliged to carry their infants to their deaths ...; the woman on her way to the gas chamber, goaded to desperation by a taunting SS man, who threw herself upon him, and was then tortured by his comrades to emphasize the cost of remonstrance. The prisoners remembered the little boy who consoled his weeping parents on the edge of their mass grave with the assurance that the Russians would avenge them. They did so, wasting no time on due process." (Sachar, 34-35) Work Cited Sachar, Abram L. The Redemption of the Unwanted. New York: St. Martin's/Marek, 1983.
