Still about the meaning of liquidation

In the following I try to argue that the meaning of liquidation in the Goebbels diary is turning an asset into cash. Theodor Herzl used the word liquidation in the context of the problem of liquidating the preperties of Jews when they move to the new homeland. I suggest the word has the same context.

First I want to present some arguments.

  1. Greek Jews paid Nazis for resettlement in the East. According to the official story, all Greek Jews were exterminated. This story has the oddity that if Nazis decided to ignore the agreement, why did they not take some Greek Jews to forced work? For sure some percentage of Greek Jews were work capable. Some of them would have survived to the end of the war in concentration camps, but none did. Therefore I assume they were indeed resettled in the East but not seen in the West after the war.
  2. Nazis were moving Jews to the East. If the goal was to exterminate them, there was no need to move them further than to Western Poland even assuming that Nazis wanted to hide the extermination. However, 1.5 million were moved to the eastern border of Western Poland. Holocaust researchers admit that before 1942 Nazis had plans to move Jews to the east and to resettle them to the Lublin area. Later the resettlement area was moved further to the east, according to the official story as a cover of extermination. Anyway, for some time Nazis moved Jews to the east of Europe but the plans talk of resettling them to another continent. Only two places are possible: Palestine and Madagascar. Zionists had discarded Madagascar stating that settling Polish Jews there would cost a very large sum per person, obviously not the real reason as settling them to Palestine did not cost that much and settlers have normally not been paid. Had Jews been moved to Madagascar, the island had to be changed to a permanent prison as Jews did not want to move there. Therefore the intended settlement area had to be Palestine. Then we come to Herzlā€™s problem of liquidation of Jewish property.
  3. Eichmann made an offer of freeing 1 million Jews if Budapest Jews can get 10,000 trucks. It is unlikely that these trucks were intended for German or Hungarian army even though there were plans of motorizing some units. This is because every army has the right to confiscate civilian vehicles if needed. If there were 10,000 trucks in Hungary that Jews could have bought, it means that these trucks were not essential and army could have taken them for free if they needed them. However, Germans were short of fuel and probably could not use 10,000 additional trucks. We have to look for another use for these trucks. Under German hands in March/April 1942 were 1 million Jews, who were not yet transported: 0.44 million in Hungary and about 0.56 million in other Western Europe. Some 1 million had probably been transported to Operation Reinhardt camps by that time. As some 1.45 million were transported to Operation Reinhardt camps to the end of the war and 410,000 survived in camps, I suggest that 200,000 Hungarian Jews and 250,000 other Jews were taken to Operation Reinhardt camps and Nazis had in March/April 1942 400,000 Jews in concentration camps in Western Europe and Western Poland. What could be the 1 million Eichmann offered? I think it cannot be the 400,000 in camps as they were mostly in useful work for the military. According to the official story it cannot be the 1 million sent to Operation Reinhardt camps as they were dead. It can only be the 1 million Jews which were not yet transported. Had Eichmann got 10,000 trucks, he could have resettled them to the East bypassing the camp system. In this way the Jews would have been freed of forced labor and resettled in the same way as Greek Jews were offered resettlement. As the trucks were in this scenario needed for transport of Jews, the payment Eichmann demanded was a different one. It probably was that Jews would persuade Stalin to stop the attack. However, Jews did not have that power over Stalin.
  4. By calculating the number of Jews who came to DP camps in the West after 1946 I came to the conclusion that 260,000 Jews from West (excluding the Soviet Union of 1946 and Romania) and that these Jews had been taken to the Soviet Union of 1946. That means, they were survivors of Operation Reinhardt camps.
  5. Mass graves in Operation Reinhardt camps indicate that a certain number of Jews died there, but the sizes of the graves indicate a much smaller number than 1.45 million.

These are my main arguments that Jews sent to Operation Reinhardt camps were not all killed. The scenario I propose is the following.

  1. Some Jews were killed in these camps. This is indicated by mass graves and the presence of T4 staff. I suggest there was an euthanasia center in every camp. The euthanasia center killed about 10% of Jews. That would include schizophrenics (2% of Ashkenazi of that time), 1% bipolar disease, weak minded (1.5%), serious criminals (1.5%) and seriously ill (4%). It means that about 145,000 would have been killed.
  2. 40% would have been used for work, that is 580,000. This may be the group from which 260,000 came later to DP camps, as well as some 100,000 Polish Jews from West Poland, who also came to DP camps from the East. If 360,000 survived out of 580,000, it would mean that 39% died, which is very possible in a war zone. These Jews probably did not realize they were in Operation Reinhardt camps as they were selected for work.
  3. 50% would have been resettled, that is 725,000. They would have been incapable of work or joining the red army but capable of working later. They would have been robbed of all possessions and their ID cards would have been burned. Therefore they could not prove having been born outside the Soviet Union of 1946 and would have become Soviet Jews. If they were not let out of the Soviet Union, no Jew in the West could tell that they were resettled. There remains a problem why they would not have told about it to their children and friends, but there may be some reason we do not know, such as accepting the official story for common benefit. Assuming these Jews were not fit to work, they were too young to realize where they were or too old to survive to 1988. I admit there is a problem here, but the alternative theory has even larger problems.
  4. I propose that liquidation refers to transfer of the properties of the 10% killed and 50% resettled Jews. Their properties would have been transferred to Nazis and to Zionists according to some agreement.

Despite these considerations, I want to express again that I do not in any way doubt that 6 million Jews were exterminated in gas chambers by Nazis. God makes miracles, mathematics does not work with miracles.

I have also noticed that not only Holocaust researchers but also holocaust researchers have rejected this my solution for explaining the liquidated word as used by Goebbels in this diary. That does not bother me the least. Both groups of researchers should then come up with a better explanation.
