The ”Sonderkommandos” of Auschwitz

In my study Special Treatment in Auschwitz .
Origin and Meaning of a Term I have written as follows : Danuta Czech explains the origin and meaning of the term “ Sonderkommando ” ( special unit ) as follows : “ The extermination camp created also one other group of people , those who were forced to work in the crematoria and gas chambers – the unfortunate people were assigned to the work of the special unit .
The SS used code words if they spoke about the mass extermination of those ‘ unworthy of life.
’ It called the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leading to selection ‘ special treatment ’ ( often abbreviated as SB ) .
Thus , also , the expression ‘ special unit.
’ ” In other words , since criminal activity described by the code word ‘ special treatment ’ was allegedly being conducted in the crematoria , the staff employed there had of necessity to be a ‘ special unit.
’ Naturally it was the only work unit at Auschwitz that merited the prefix ‘ special ’ [ sonder ] – otherwise the word would have lost the criminal significance that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Based on the documents , the reality is entirely different .
First of all , the expression ‘ special unit ’ does not appear in a single document referring to the crematoria .
In its ‘ magnum opus ’ the Auschwitz museum attempted to prove , on the basis of two documents , that this term was used for the crematoria personnel .
The first document is a duty roster for July 18 , 1944 [ ” Dienstplan für Dienstag ” , dated 17 July ] , the second order no .
8/43 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Commandant ’ s Headquarters .
But the first document merely mentions the term ‘ special unit ’ in connection with a gate control [ Torkontrolle ] » Here a correction is necessary .
The mention of the ” Sonderkommando ” is not related to the ” Torkontrolle ” written on the left ( the document is written in two columns ) but to four names listed on the right : ” Buch , Kelm , Schultz , Bickel ” .
Franciszek Piper considers them all to be “ members of the SS directly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” , but this assertion is based solely on the document in question .
He also states that Buch , Kelm and Schulz are mentioned as the members of the SS-Sonderkommando of the crematoria by the witnesses Alter Feinsilber ( alias Jankowski ) and Henryk Tauber , but the first one speaks only of a ” Scharführer Buch ” and a ” Kell ” , while the other mentions a ” Schultz ” and a ” Köln ” .
One Scharführer Buch , an Unterscharführer Kelm and an Unterscharführer appears ( with their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of SS-men containing a column of written signatures under the heading ” receipt ” , likely related to the payment of salaries .
Their tasks are not specified .
The Heinz Schulz who according to Piper ( whose source refers to a “ Schultz ” ) was a Kommandoführer ( commando leader ) of the crematoria was identified at the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trial as SS-Unterscharführer Arthur Heinz Schulz , who was the “ Kommandoführer im Arbeitskommando Zerlegbetriebe ” ( commando leader of the disassembly work commando ) .
Hermann Buch , who according @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the crematoria , served , according to the same book in which the Auschwitz historian makes this claim , as Lagerführer of BIIe ( head of camp BIIe , the “ Gypsy family camp ) , at the beginning of April 1944 .
In the eight lines of his biographical note there is no hint that he occupied the – in the context of the ” Holocaust ” claims most important – position of a crematoria Kommandoführer .
There exists a similar document , the ” Dienstplan für Donnerstag , den 10.05.1944 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 5 October 1944 ) , dated 4 October , in which the term Sonderkommando appears but with only one name written next to it : ” Buch ” .
In the second column on the same line is written “ Sola , Hütte ” ( Sola [ river ] , works ) and close to this ” Kelm ” .
Because , as explained below , the staff of the crematoria at the time was divided into 8 Kommandos , 2 for each crematorium ( one day and one night shift ) , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ daily .
The first document mentions only 4 SS non-commissioned officers , while the second mentions only a single name , which means that the ” Sonderkommando ” mentioned in them had nothing to do with the crematoria staff .
« The second [ document ] speaks simply of the pursuit of two jews “ who were on the run from the special unit.
” [ von 2 juden , die vom Sonderkommando flüchtig waren ] Therefore , the assumption , based on the above two occurrences of the term , is that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ special unit , ’ which consisted of the crematoria staff !
However , in the documents , which explicitly mention the crematorium staff , its designation is simply “ staff of crematorium ” [ Krematoriumspersonal ] or it is identified by numbers – “ 206-B boiler , Crematorium I and II , 207-B boiler , Crematorium II and IV ” [ ” 206-B Heizer Krematorium I. u.II .
207-B Heizer Krematorium III .
U. IV ” ] .
In the second place , there were numerous ‘ special units ’ in Auschwitz , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ anything whatsoever to do with the crematoria .
I list those below , for which I have found documentary evidence : • None Installation by special unit Birkenau BW 20 POW camp [ “ Installation des Sonderkommando-Birkenau BW 20 KGL ” ] : unit of electricians serving in the power plant of Birkenau ( BW 20 ) .
• None ” ] : women ’ s unit assigned to the sorting of clothing .
• None ” ] : unit for the warehousing of the personal effects of the jews deported to Auschwitz @ @ @ @ @ @ @ information with regard to its function .
• None ” ] : unit employed in the store of the construction depot .
• None ” ] : unit working in Dwory – a village about 10 km east of the town of Auschwitz .
One may comb the orthodox historical publications , beginning with those of the Auschwitz Museum , for even a scant reference to the above ‘ special units ’ – but , alas , in vain !
» Recently the Auschwitz Museum website ( www.auschwitz.org.pl ) published two documents which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one of them with explicit reference to a ” Krematorium ” ( crematorium ) .
Below I present the documents with transcriptions and translations .
Towards 14.00 hours today a larger number of detainees belonging to the Sonderkommando ( crematory ) , mostly jews , escaped from K.L .
Auschwitz .
Part of the escapees were shot during the pursuit , which was commenced immediately .
The search operation continues .
Distinguishing marks : cropped hair , number tattooed on the l [ eft ] .
lower arm .
Clothes partly civilian with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ urgently notify subordinate agencies and carry out further search measures .
4 prisoners are still on free foot .
It is rather curious that such an important document was discovered ( ? )
only after 65 years and then published without any supplementary information .
I will return to this issue at the end of the article .
The second document is an officer ’ s service report ( Führer v. Dienst ) from 9-10 December 1942 .
[ 14 ] I will translate here only its most important parts : « At @ @ @ @ @ @ @ detainees had escaped from Sonderkommando I .
[ … ] .
At 20.30 hours there was a call from Harmensee that 2 detainees had been captured there .
[ … ] .
It was the two jewish detainees no .
36816 and 38313 who had escaped from Sonderkommando II early on 7.12.42.
» Danuta Czech , in her Auschwitz ” Kalendarium ” summarizes the document in question as follows under the entry for 9 December 1942 : « At 12.25 the officer on duty received a notification that six detainees had escaped from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us that « the two prisoners , with the numbers 36816 and 38313 » , had escaped « from Sonderkommando II » .
In the entry for 10 December she adds : « The two jewish prisoners Ladislaus Knopp ( No .
36816 ) and Samuel Culea ( No .
38313 ) who had escaped from Sonderkommando II on 7 December are confined in the Bunker of Block 11 and released the same day into the camp .
Two jewish inmates , who fled the day before from the Sonderkommando , are captured @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 11 .
These are Bar Borenstein ( No 74858 ) , born 10 February 1920 , and Nojech Borenstein ( No 74859 ) , born 25 March 1925 in Szreńsk .
[ … ] .
Both are probably executed in the presence of the Sonderkommando in order to terrorize the other prisoners » .
In a footnote Czech explains with regards to Bar Borenstein and Nojech Borenstein : « Next to the names of the both detainees , near the annotation “ released ” is written the letter “ Ü ” » .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ from what the author of the ” Kalendarium ” draws her conclusion that these two prisoners were executed , as “ Ü ” is doubtlessly an abbreviation of “ überstellt ” , transferred .
In fact , the numbers of these two inmates are not listed as dead among the entries of the Leichenhallenbuch ( the registry of deaths from the morgue in Block 28 of the main camp ) from 9 December 1942 or the following days .
But the most important aspect of the above summaries by Czech is the fact @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Sonderkommando from which the six prisoners had escaped : ” I ” .
The reason for this is easy to understand .
Under the date of 3 December 1942 Czech writes : « The approximately 300 prisoners of the Sonderkommando used for the exhumation and cremation of 107,000 corpses buried in mass graves are driven by the SS from Birkenau to the Auschwitz main camp .
There they are taken to the crematorium and killed with gas .
Thus the witnesses to the cremation of the corpses are eliminated » .
In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ notes : « A new Sonderkommando is formed , which includes several dozen detainees selected from camp BIb .
It probably bears the name Sonderkommando II .
Among its members are Meilech ( Milton ) Buki ( Nr .
80312 ) and Szlama Dragon ( Nr .
80359 ) [ … ] .
At the trial of Rudolf Hoss he [ Szlama Dragon ] deposed as a witness for the prosecution , stating that the group of jewish prisoners were assigned to the Sonderkommando on 9 December and the following day were employed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the camp documents it appears that the Sonderkommando [ II ] aready existed , because on 7 and 9 December prisoners employed in it attempted escape » .
The mention of « camp documents » clearly refer to the officer ’ s service report from 9 December 1942 .
To recapitulate , the Sonderkommando allegedly massacred on 3 December 1942 was replaced by a “ Sonderkommando II ” on 6 December , which means that the former unit was the ” Sonderkommando I ” .
D. Czech claims that the detainees who escaped @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from ” Sonderkommando II ” , but the officer ’ s service report explicitly states that the six detainees in question were employed in Sonderkommando I ” .
By omitting the number “ I ” from her entry for 9 December and falsely asserting in the entry for 6 December that all the prisoners who had escaped belonged to “ Sonderkommando II , Czech sought to to hide the fact that on December 9 , 1942 there existed a “ Sonderkommando I ” as well as a “ Sonderkommando II ” , something @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
It is all too obvious that , if the two Sonderkommandos existed at the same time , the first one could not have been exterminated on 3 December , and the second one could not have taken its place days later .
Elsewhere I have explained that the Sonderkommando I and II had nothing to do with the crematoria , but were working at sorting the booty of ” Aktion Reinhard ” in Auschwitz .
The imposture of Czech sought to confirm the thesis that at Auschwitz there existed one single , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It had to be the only one because , as explained above , its name was to recall its supposed involvement in the alleged Sonderbehandlung .
It is evident that the author of the ” Kalendarium ” had to resort to this imposture because at that time there existed no documents which could establish a relationship between the Sonderkommando and the crematoria .
Now , the “ escape report ” mentioned above tells us of a Sonderkommando belonging to the “ crematory ” , but this was just one of many Sonderkommandos that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by the document itself , since it specifies within brackets that the Sonderkommando was that of the “ crematory ” , thus implying precisely that there were other Sonderkommandos .
Furthermore , the fact that the escapees from this Sonderkommando were “ mostly jews ” contradicts the exterminationist axiom that all , or virtually all , of the members of the crematoria Sonderkommando were jews .
This document is important also in another aspect , which perhaps explains the fact that it was “ forgotten ” for so many years .
The only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by Holocaust historiography is supposed to have taken place in connection with the alleged “ revolt of the Sonderkommando ” of 7 October 1944 .
The only date to appear in the document in question is , however , 7 September 1944 .
The document , moreover , speaks of an escape , not of a revolt , which , among other things , is claimed to have led to deaths among the SS personnel – but in our ” escape report ” there is no mention of any such deaths .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ confirmation of the alleged revolt , Standortbefehl ( garrison order ) No .
26/44 of 12 October 1944 , states : True to their oath to the Führer , there fell before the enemy in their line of duty , on Saturday 7.10.44 [ « In Ausübung ihres Dienstes fielen vor dem Feind getreu ihrem Eid auf den Führer am Sonnabend , dem [ sic ] 7.10.44 » ] This is followed by the names of three SS-Unterscharführer : Rudolf Erler , Willi Freese and Josef Purke .
It does not mention , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ non-commissioned officers died .
To this document is added the fact that , according to the series of reports on the Arbeitseinsatz ( work deployment ) of the men ’ s camp in Birkenau , the crematoria staff – called ” Heizer Krematorium I-IV ” ( firemen crematoria I-IV ) and divided into one Kommando per crematorium , with each of those in turn broken down into two shifts , day an night : 57B , 58B , 59B , 60B – consisted of 663 prisoners on 8 October 1944 , while on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
But the decrease of 451 inmates does not necessarily indicate that they were killed during a revolt .
On the other hand , if this alleged revolt had actually occurred on October 7 , the decrease in the strength of the Sonderkommando would have been recorded on the following day , not on the 9th .
Moreover , according to the sources referred to in footnote 22 , from 10 October on , the staff of crematorium IV vanishes from the Arbeitseinsatz reports .
The staff of crematorium I , II and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shifts , day and night , 33 prisoners each , practically until October 31 .
The decrease could thus also have been caused by a reduction of the crematoria staff for administrative reasons .
With regard to crematorium IV , no known document clarifies its fate .
On 7 September 1944 the crematoria staff consisted of 870 detainees , while on 2 October it was down to 661 .
If this decrease of 209 prisoners was not the result of the escape of September 7 ( with which it is compatible , considering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ relates to changes in the workforce which had taken place the day before , while the subsequent reports have not been preserved ) it could also have been due to administrative reasons .
In conclusion : The fact that such an enormously important event as the alleged ” revolt of the Sonderkommando ” is not explicitly mentioned in any German document , starting with those of the Litzmannstadt Gestapo , which in connection with any escape from Auschwitz as a rule always sent out a telegram to all affected offices , is the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Holocaust historiography .

In my study Special Treatment in Auschwitz. Origin and Meaning of a Term I have written as follows:
«“Special Units” of the Crematoria
Danuta Czech explains the origin and meaning of the term “Sonderkommando” (special unit) as follows:
“The extermination camp created also one other group of people, those who were forced to work in the crematoria and gas chambers – the unfortunate people were assigned to the work of the special unit. The SS used code words if they spoke about the mass extermination of those ‘unworthy of life.’ It called the mass extermination as well as the transports leading to selection ‘special treatment’ (often abbreviated as SB). Thus, also, the expression ‘special unit.’”
In other words, since criminal activity described by the code word ‘special treatment’ was allegedly being conducted in the crematoria, the staff employed there had of necessity to be a ‘special unit.’ Naturally it was the only work unit at Auschwitz that merited the prefix ‘special’ [sonder] – otherwise the word would have lost the criminal significance that it possessed according to official historiography.
Based on the documents, the reality is entirely different. First of all, the expression ‘special unit’ does not appear in a single document referring to the crematoria. In its ‘magnum opus’ the Auschwitz museum attempted to prove, on the basis of two documents, that this term was used for the crematoria personnel. The first document is a duty roster for July 18, 1944 [”Dienstplan für Dienstag”, dated 17 July], the second order no. 8/43 of April 20, 1943 from the Commandant’s Headquarters. But the first document merely mentions the term ‘special unit’ in connection with a gate control [Torkontrolle]»
Here a correction is necessary. The mention of the ”Sonderkommando” is not related to the ”Torkontrolle” written on the left (the document is written in two columns) but to four names listed on the right: ”Buch, Kelm, Schultz, Bickel”. Franciszek Piper considers them all to be “members of the SS directly employed in the gas chambers and crematoria”, but this assertion is based solely on the document in question. He also states that Buch, Kelm and Schulz are mentioned as the members of the SS-Sonderkommando of the crematoria by the witnesses Alter Feinsilber (alias Jankowski) and Henryk Tauber, but the first one speaks only of a ”Scharführer Buch” and a ”Kell”, while the other mentions a ”Schultz” and a ”Köln”. One Scharführer Buch, an Unterscharführer Kelm and an Unterscharführer appears (with their proper names) in an undated list of SS-men containing a column of written signatures under the heading ”receipt”, likely related to the payment of salaries. Their tasks are not specified. The Heinz Schulz who according to Piper (whose source refers to a “Schultz”) was a Kommandoführer (commando leader) of the crematoria was identified at the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trial as SS-Unterscharführer Arthur Heinz Schulz, who was the “ Kommandoführer im Arbeitskommando Zerlegbetriebe” (commando leader of the disassembly work commando). Hermann Buch, who according to Piper also served as a Kommandoführer in the crematoria, served, according to the same book in which the Auschwitz historian makes this claim, as Lagerführer of BIIe (head of camp BIIe, the “Gypsy family camp), at the beginning of April 1944. In the eight lines of his biographical note there is no hint that he occupied the – in the context of the ”Holocaust” claims most important – position of a crematoria Kommandoführer.
There exists a similar document, the ”Dienstplan für Donnerstag, den 10.05.1944” (Service schedule for Tuesday, 5 October 1944), dated 4 October, in which the term Sonderkommando appears but with only one name written next to it: ”Buch”. In the second column on the same line is written “Sola, Hütte” (Sola [river], works) and close to this ”Kelm”.
Because, as explained below, the staff of the crematoria at the time was divided into 8 Kommandos, 2 for each crematorium (one day and one night shift), a total of 8 Kommandoführer were required daily. The first document mentions only 4 SS non-commissioned officers, while the second mentions only a single name, which means that the ”Sonderkommando” mentioned in them had nothing to do with the crematoria staff.
«The second [document] speaks simply of the pursuit of two jews “who were on the run from the special unit.” [von 2 juden, die vom Sonderkommando flüchtig waren] Therefore, the assumption, based on the above two occurrences of the term, is that there was in Auschwitz a single ‘special unit,’ which consisted of the crematoria staff!
However, in the documents, which explicitly mention the crematorium staff, its designation is simply “staff of crematorium” [Krematoriumspersonal] or it is identified by numbers – “206-B boiler, Crematorium I and II, 207-B boiler, Crematorium II and IV”[”206-B Heizer Krematorium I. u.II. 207-B Heizer Krematorium III. U. IV”].
In the second place, there were numerous ‘special units’ in Auschwitz, of which not a single one had anything whatsoever to do with the crematoria. I list those below, for which I have found documentary evidence:
Installation by special unit Birkenau BW 20 POW camp [“Installation des Sonderkommando-Birkenau BW 20 KGL”]: unit of electricians serving in the power plant of Birkenau (BW 20).
pest control special unit [“ Sonderkommando-Schädlingsbekämpfung ”] (made up of women).
special unit Reinhardt [“ Sonderkommando-Reinhardt ”]: women’s unit assigned to the sorting of clothing.
special unit Zeppelin [“ Sonderkommando Zeppelin ”]: outside unit based in Breslau.
special unit I [“ Sonderkommando 1 ”]: unit for the warehousing of the personal effects of the jews deported to Auschwitz.
special unit II [“ Sonderkommando II ”]: no information with regard to its function.
construction depot special unit (S.K.) [“ Bauhof-Sonderkommando (S.K.) ”]: unit employed in the store of the construction depot.
Dwory special unit (S.K.) [“ Dwory-Sonderkommando (S.K.) ”]: unit working in Dwory – a village about 10 km east of the town of Auschwitz.
Buna special unit (S.K.) [“ Buna-Sonderkommando (S.K.) ”]: unit working in Monowitz.
clothing workshops special unit [“ Bekleidungs-Werkstätte-Sonderkommando (Bekl.Werkst.S.K.) ”]: unit in the workshops producing clothing.
DAW special unit [“ D.A.W.Sonderkommando (S.K.) ”]: unit employed in the German Equipment Works [ Deutsche Ausrüstungswerke ].
Sonderkommando , occupied at the “Sola-Hütte.”
One may comb the orthodox historical publications, beginning with those of the Auschwitz Museum, for even a scant reference to the above ‘special units’ – but, alas, in vain!»
Recently the Auschwitz Museum website (www.auschwitz.org.pl) published two documents which mentions the term ”Sonderkommando”, one of them with explicit reference to a ”Krematorium” (crematorium). Below I present the documents with transcriptions and translations.

It is rather curious that such an important document was discovered (?) only after 65 years and then published without any supplementary information. I will return to this issue at the end of the article.
The second document is an officer’s service report (Führer v. Dienst) from 9-10 December 1942.[14]
I will translate here only its most important parts:
«At 12.25 hours it was reported that 6 detainees had escaped from Sonderkommando I. […]. At 20.30 hours there was a call from Harmensee that 2 detainees had been captured there. […]. It was the two jewish detainees no. 36816 and 38313 who had escaped from Sonderkommando II early on 7.12.42.»
[«12.25 wurde gemeldet das [sic] beim Sonderkommande [sic] I 6 Häftlinge geflüchtet sind. […]. 20.30 wurde v. Harmenze [sic] angerufen, das [sic] dort 2 Häfltinge aufgegriffen worden sind. […]. Es waren die beiden juden häflinge [sic] N 36816 + 38313 welche am 7.12.42 früh v. Sonderkom. II geflüchtet sind»].
Danuta Czech, in her Auschwitz ”Kalendarium” summarizes the document in question as follows under the entry for 9 December 1942:
«At 12.25 the officer on duty received a notification that six detainees had escaped from the Sonderkommando».
She then informs us that «the two prisoners, with the numbers 36816 and 38313», had escaped «from Sonderkommando II». In the entry for 10 December she adds:
«The two jewish prisoners Ladislaus Knopp (No. 36816) and Samuel Culea (No. 38313) who had escaped from Sonderkommando II on 7 December are confined in the Bunker of Block 11 and released the same day into the camp.
Two jewish inmates, who fled the day before from the Sonderkommando, are captured and imprisoned in the Bunker of Block 11. These are Bar Borenstein (No 74858), born 10 February 1920, and Nojech Borenstein (No 74859), born 25 March 1925 in Szreńsk. […]. Both are probably executed in the presence of the Sonderkommando in order to terrorize the other prisoners».
In a footnote Czech explains with regards to Bar Borenstein and Nojech Borenstein:
«Next to the names of the both detainees, near the annotation “released” is written the letter “Ü”».[16]
It is not clear from what the author of the ”Kalendarium” draws her conclusion that these two prisoners were executed, as “Ü” is doubtlessly an abbreviation of “überstellt”, transferred. In fact, the numbers of these two inmates are not listed as dead among the entries of the Leichenhallenbuch (the registry of deaths from the morgue in Block 28 of the main camp) from 9 December 1942 or the following days. But the most important aspect of the above summaries by Czech is the fact that she has omitted the number of the Sonderkommando from which the six prisoners had escaped: ”I”. The reason for this is easy to understand. Under the date of 3 December 1942 Czech writes:
«The approximately 300 prisoners of the Sonderkommando used for the exhumation and cremation of 107,000 corpses buried in mass graves are driven by the SS from Birkenau to the Auschwitz main camp. There they are taken to the crematorium and killed with gas. Thus the witnesses to the cremation of the corpses are eliminated».
In the entry for 6 December 1942 she notes:
«A new Sonderkommando is formed, which includes several dozen detainees selected from camp BIb. It probably bears the name Sonderkommando II. Among its members are Meilech (Milton) Buki (Nr. 80312) and Szlama Dragon (Nr. 80359) […]. At the trial of Rudolf Hoss he [Szlama Dragon] deposed as a witness for the prosecution, stating that the group of jewish prisoners were assigned to the Sonderkommando on 9 December and the following day were employed in the cremation of corpses. From the camp documents it appears that the Sonderkommando [II] aready existed, because on 7 and 9 December prisoners employed in it attempted escape».
The mention of «camp documents» clearly refer to the officer’s service report from 9 December 1942.
To recapitulate, the Sonderkommando allegedly massacred on 3 December 1942 was replaced by a “Sonderkommando II” on 6 December, which means that the former unit was the ”Sonderkommando I”. D. Czech claims that the detainees who escaped on 7 and 9 December were all from ” Sonderkommando II”, but the officer’s service report explicitly states that the six detainees in question were employed in Sonderkommando I”. By omitting the number “I” from her entry for 9 December and falsely asserting in the entry for 6 December that all the prisoners who had escaped belonged to “Sonderkommando II , Czech sought to to hide the fact that on December 9, 1942 there existed a “Sonderkommando I” as well as a “Sonderkommando II”, something which upsets her flawed reconstruction of events. It is all too obvious that, if the two Sonderkommandos existed at the same time, the first one could not have been exterminated on 3 December, and the second one could not have taken its place days later.
Elsewhere I have explained that the Sonderkommando I and II had nothing to do with the crematoria, but were working at sorting the booty of ”Aktion Reinhard” in Auschwitz.
The imposture of Czech sought to confirm the thesis that at Auschwitz there existed one single, unique Sonderkommando employed in the crematoria. It had to be the only one because, as explained above, its name was to recall its supposed involvement in the alleged Sonderbehandlung. It is evident that the author of the ”Kalendarium” had to resort to this imposture because at that time there existed no documents which could establish a relationship between the Sonderkommando and the crematoria.
Now, the “escape report” mentioned above tells us of a Sonderkommando belonging to the “crematory”, but this was just one of many Sonderkommandos that existed in Auschwitz. This is confirmed by the document itself, since it specifies within brackets that the Sonderkommando was that of the “crematory”, thus implying precisely that there were other Sonderkommandos. Furthermore, the fact that the escapees from this Sonderkommando were “mostly jews” contradicts the exterminationist axiom that all, or virtually all, of the members of the crematoria Sonderkommando were jews.
This document is important also in another aspect, which perhaps explains the fact that it was “forgotten” for so many years. The only mass escape of Auschwitz crematoria staff mentioned by Holocaust historiography is supposed to have taken place in connection with the alleged “revolt of the Sonderkommando” of 7 October 1944. The only date to appear in the document in question is, however, 7 September 1944. The document, moreover, speaks of an escape, not of a revolt, which, among other things, is claimed to have led to deaths among the SS personnel – but in our ”escape report” there is no mention of any such deaths.
The one single document that is cited in confirmation of the alleged revolt, Standortbefehl (garrison order) No. 26/44 of 12 October 1944, states:
True to their oath to the Führer, there fell before the enemy in their line of duty, on Saturday 7.10.44 [«In Ausübung ihres Dienstes fielen vor dem Feind getreu ihrem Eid auf den Führer am Sonnabend, dem [sic] 7.10.44»]
This is followed by the names of three SS-Unterscharführer: Rudolf Erler, Willi Freese and Josef Purke. It does not mention, however, under which circumstances these three non-commissioned officers died.
To this document is added the fact that, according to the series of reports on the Arbeitseinsatz (work deployment) of the men’s camp in Birkenau, the crematoria staff – called ”Heizer Krematorium I-IV” (firemen crematoria I-IV) and divided into one Kommando per crematorium, with each of those in turn broken down into two shifts, day an night: 57B, 58B, 59B, 60B – consisted of 663 prisoners on 8 October 1944, while on the following day it counted only 212. But the decrease of 451 inmates does not necessarily indicate that they were killed during a revolt. On the other hand, if this alleged revolt had actually occurred on October 7, the decrease in the strength of the Sonderkommando would have been recorded on the following day, not on the 9th. Moreover, according to the sources referred to in footnote 22, from 10 October on, the staff of crematorium IV vanishes from the Arbeitseinsatz reports. The staff of crematorium I, II and V continues to be divided into two shifts, day and night, 33 prisoners each, practically until October 31. The decrease could thus also have been caused by a reduction of the crematoria staff for administrative reasons. With regard to crematorium IV, no known document clarifies its fate.
On 7 September 1944 the crematoria staff consisted of 870 detainees, while on 2 October it was down to 661. If this decrease of 209 prisoners was not the result of the escape of September 7 (with which it is compatible, considering that the Arbeitseinsatz report for this day relates to changes in the workforce which had taken place the day before, while the subsequent reports have not been preserved) it could also have been due to administrative reasons.
In conclusion: The fact that such an enormously important event as the alleged ”revolt of the Sonderkommando” is not explicitly mentioned in any German document, starting with those of the Litzmannstadt Gestapo, which in connection with any escape from Auschwitz as a rule always sent out a telegram to all affected offices, is the most disturbing aspect of this story for Holocaust historiography.

America’s billionaires have seen their wealth increase by 12.5 percent during the COVID-19 lockdown period. The Institute for Policy Studies (IPS), a Washington, D.C.-based think tank, released a study Thursday showing that, in the eight weeks between March 18 and May 14, the country’s super wealthy have added a further $368.8 billion to their already enormous fortunes.
Among the more famous big winners during the pandemic include Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg, who adds $21 billion to his net worth (a 38 percent increase). Failed Democratic presidential contender Michael Bloomberg is up $10 billion as well, meaning he has recouped ten times as much as he lost in his big money political campaign that went nowhere. Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has increased his fortune by around $6 billion as well.
All this comes at the same time that the economy has undeniably imploded for working people. A record 36 million Americans have filed for unemployment insurance, with millions more losing their employer-based healthcare plans, and around a third of the country not paying its rent. Schools, factories, offices, and other businesses remain shuttered. The Trump administration has promised to provide $1,200 to every citizen, but it will be months before everyone receives their check. As a result, there has been an explosion in the use of food banks, as desperate citizens line up for hours in the hopes of receiving a box of food.
The study, based on figures from Forbes’ annual global billionaire survey, found that Amazon CEO and world’s richest individual Jeff Bezos was the biggest winner during the period of crisis, adding a massive $30 billion to his wealth. If he continues at the current rate, Bezos will become the world’s first trillionaire by 2026, with other oligarchs not far behind. This is possible primarily because of the hyper-exploitation of his workforce; Amazon warehouse employees are infamously forced into wearing adult diapers or peeing in bottles, unable to take bathroom breaks. The company’s own data shows that one-third of its Arizona employees depend upon food stamps to make ends meet. In Pennsylvania, it is the state’s nineteenth largest employer but fifth most common for those receiving SNAP benefits. Bezos’ workers have been organizing amid a pandemic that puts their lives at risk, but instead of providing them with living wages and proper protective equipment, he has given his employees at Whole Foods supermarkets with new uniforms proclaiming that they are heroes.
“When billionaires like Jeff Bezos see their wealth surge by tens of billions, as they command their underpaid, vulnerable and unprotected workers into the viral line of fire, we should rise up to demand accountability,” Chuck Collins, Director of the Program on Inequality for the IPS told MintPress News, noting that Bezos is on track to amass “a level of concentrated wealth and power that even the greatest kings and oligarchs could never have imagined.”
Even Tesla CEO Elon Musk has seen his wealth balloon by $11.3 billion, despite the fact that his California car plant has been closed for weeks. How could this be? One explanatory reason is the billionaire bonanza that is the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act, passed last month. A nonpartisan congressional body found that 82 percent of the tax benefits will go to those earning over $1 million per year, with exponentially more for the ultra wealthy elite. In contrast, less than three percent goes to the great majority of us who earn less than $100,000 per year. Safe in the knowledge that billionaires will not have to bear the brunt of the costs of the pandemic, their wealth has shot up. “Rising billionaire wealth during a pandemic reveals a level of unequal sacrifice that is unseemly and immoral,” Collins added.
Of course, the money is not coming from nowhere. It is certainly not coming from billionaires’ hard work. It is coming from us: from our pockets and those of the global poor, who will be forced to pay for the virus and the huge tax cuts later. The fact that billionaires’ wealth is rising so rapidly in a period of economic collapse is a sign that the rich’s wealth is barely even connected to productive forces anymore and has more to do with how much wealth one can take from public coffers.

renegadetribune--2020-05-19--Facebook Has Been Removing a Record Number of Posts for “Hate Speech”

I have not had a personal Facebook page since 2012 .
I stopped using the Renegade Broadcasting page years ago after almost everything I was posting was getting flagged .
I was getting put in “ time out ” constantly for being a bad goy .
Apparently lots of people are still on there and many of them are engaging in “ wrong think.
” Facebook , along with almost every other major Silicon Valley tech company , has the foreign terrorist organization know as the ADL embedded within their business so as to ensure nothing that the jewish supremacists @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be posted .
Facebook has released its biannual Community Standards Enforcement Report which shows the number of controversial posts the company has removed from the platform .
As Statista ’ s Niall McCarthy shows below , the social media giant deleted a record number of hate speech posts with 9.6 million pieces of content taken down between January and March 2020 compared to 5.7 million in the prior period .
4.7 million posts were removed that originated from organized hate groups in the first quarter of this year which is an increase of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2019 .
The censors are not only relying on the “ community ” to police the speech of Facebook members , as 88.3 % of all “ hate speech ” was actually removed prior to being reported .
This is because Facebook is using advanced AI technology to prevent “ hate ” content from being posted .
They are proud of their technological improvements in being able to “ read ” images and videos .
In a statement , the company said that “ we ’ re now able to detect text embedded @ @ @ @ @ @ @ understand its full context , and we ’ ve built media matching technology to find content that ’ s identical or near-identical to photos , videos , text and even audio that we ’ ve already removed.
” Even though it is annoying to have truthful content censored by these jewish supremacists , it is actually great news that they are having to resort to such heavy-handed censorship in a desperate last-ditch effort .

I have not had a personal Facebook page since 2012. I stopped using the Renegade Broadcasting page years ago after almost everything I was posting was getting flagged.

Apparently lots of people are still on there and many of them are engaging in “wrong think.” Facebook, along with almost every other major Silicon Valley tech company, has the foreign terrorist organization know as the ADL embedded within their business so as to ensure nothing that the jewish supremacists don’t like is allowed to be posted.
From Zero Hedge:
Facebook has released its biannual Community Standards Enforcement Report which shows the number of controversial posts the company has removed from the platform. As Statista’s Niall McCarthy shows below, the social media giant deleted a record number of hate speech posts with 9.6 million pieces of content taken down between January and March 2020 compared to 5.7 million in the prior period. 4.7 million posts were removed that originated from organized hate groups in the first quarter of this year which is an increase of more than 3 million on Q4, 2019.
Here’s a chart from Statista:
The censors are not only relying on the “community” to police the speech of Facebook members, as 88.3% of all “hate speech” was actually removed prior to being reported. This is because Facebook is using advanced AI technology to prevent “hate” content from being posted. They are proud of their technological improvements in being able to “read” images and videos.

Renegade Editor’s Note: This invention is awesome, revolutionary, and easy to understand. I figured it would be a nice change of pace for you all.
Magnetic river is an electrodynamic magnetic levitation (maglev) system designed by Fredrick Eastham and Eric Laithwaite in 1974. It consists of a thin conductive plate on an AC linear induction motor. Due to the transverse flux and the geometry, this gives it lift, stability and propulsion as well as being relatively efficient. The name refers to the action that provides stability along the longitudinal axis, which acts similar to the flow of water in a river.
