I just hope that CounterPunch, for its own sake, does not ever publish
Felton's views on the holocaust. The business about Höss and Conan below
comes straight out of the Ernst Zundel/Robert Faurisson/David Irving
playbook.

The Holocaust has been so polluted by propaganda that it’s virtually
impossible to separate fact from disinformation, so I cannot say for
certain if Ahmadinejad is right. For its part, the International
Committee of the Red Cross published a three-volume report in 1948 in
which it found no evidence of systematic genocide. On the other hand,
estimates of Jewish deaths range from 470,000 to 9 million!
I believe Ahmadinejad is wrong to deny the Holocaust outright, but he is
right to call into question the dogmatic acceptance of Zionist verities,
such as Auschwitz’s Crematorium I, which exists today. As reporter Eric
Conan wrote in a lengthy 1995 exposé for France’s L’Express:
“In 1948, when the Museum was created, Crematorium I was reconstructed
in a supposed original state. Everything about it is false (Tout y est
faux): the dimensions of the gas chamber, the locations of the doors,
the openings for pouring in Zyklon B, the ovens (rebuilt according to
the recollections of some survivors), the height of the chimney.”
Also, the new plaque at the entrance to Auschwitz reflects the Polish
government’s revision of the number of dead from 4 million to 1.5
million. The 4 million figure came from Capt. Rudolph Höss, the camp
commandant, whose testimony has been discredited.
Despite the reduction of 2.5 million, the Zionist figure of 6 million is
still maintained. Clearly, this number is pure myth, and Ahmadinejad is
at least partly right.
