On the 65th Anniversary of the Liberation of Auschwitz, Liberate the Truth About the Auschwitz Blueprints

Atlas Shrugs
January 27, 2010

Is there not one honorable person who knows and will speak the truth on this, the 65th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz? On January 27th, survivors of the concentration camp at Auschwitz-Birkenau attended a ceremony marking the 65th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz camp and to remember the victims of the Holocaust in Auschwitz Birkenau. How can you remember the dead when the lie that brutally murdered them still lives?

The act of memorial is meaningless if no lesson is learned. Europe had decided to rid itself of its Jews, and was joined in this by the Islamic world. What lesson did Europe take away fromthe holocaust? That they were monsters and they had had to be good? No. They have faux memorials while preparing for holocaust II.

The major role of Islam has been whitewashed from history. Why? Why have the Germans and the West excused Islam from its horrible hand inthe holocaust? There is a major cover-up going on in the 2008 discovery of the Auschwitz blueprints. Six million Jewish dead want to know.

Who is being protecting after 65 years? The Japanese were nuked. The Nazis were decimated - though many were treated most kindly in Egypt and Syria (Argentina and South America, too) after the war. But the nazi ideology was decimated. And yet the Nazi partner, Islam, walks away without a scratch?? How is that possible? And sickeningly worse, the Muslims get a judenrein Europe after all.

It's not as if Islam apologized for its role in mass Jewish genocide. Just the opposite: they scream and screech and teach and payroll and plan for the annihilation of the Jews (without the Nazis this time).

There's more on the Auschwitz blueprint origins. Much thanks to Bunch for his able assist.

While we don't want to intrude on the lives or privacy of the people who now live at Goethe Strasse 27, there is empirical evidence that this is where the Mufti lived. We found another document validating the Mufti's address. This is where he lived; his "office" was at the Prinz-Albrecht-Palais. Either of these places COULD have been where theAuschwitz plans were hidden.



Here is where the Germans allowed the Mufti to set up his “Islamic Central Institute” shortly thereafter: (pics) The “Islamic Central Institute” was placed in the “Prinz-Albrecht-Palais,” which has a storied history: this link describes what has happened to the buildingafter the war.

This is where the Mufti lived in Berlin; he moved in on November 6, 1941, and left at the end of WWII Goethe Strasse 27, Berlin:



He lived at Goethe Strasse 27 and had his "Islamic Central Institute" at the Prinz-Albrecht-Palais. I found another reference that the Mufti lived in "Zehlendorf," and Goethestrasse 27 is in Zehlendorf, a suburb of Berlin.

Address: Wilhelmstrasse 102, opposite the eastern end of the Kochstrasse. From 1928 it was the Government Guest House. In 1934, the Security Service of the Reich Leader SS moved into the building and used it for the SD Main Office and as the Chief of Security Police Dienstsitz Reinhard Heydrich. Part of this building was dedicated for the Islamic Central Institute.

(History of Islam in Germany from 1731/1732 to 1945)

There, the Mufti arrived on 6.11.41, called henceforth, "Grand Mufti of Palestine" and immediately demanded "a large Jewish house" be made available. It happened - Address: Goethe Strasse 27 in Zehlendorf. Soon after he was personally received by Hitler. Amin el-Husseini, succeeded in a short time, to create the Islamic Central Institute " and neutralized all of his opponents. At the inauguration of the institute, in the Prinz-Albrecht-Palais (the "House of flying "), the Mufti of the Islamic community and leader of the Arab world was given an enthusiastic welcome. In his anti-Semitic diatribe, he asserted without contradiction that the Jews are the" most bitter enemies " of Muslims and have always been "subversive elements. "

The Wannsee Conference was a meeting of senior officials of the Nazi German regime, held in the Berlin suburb of Wannsee on 20 January 1942. The purpose of the conference was to inform administrative leaders of Departments responsible for various policies relating to Jews, that Reinhard Heydrich had been appointed as the chief executor of the "Final solution to the Jewish question". In the course of the meeting, Heydrich presented a plan, presumably approved by Adolf Hitler, for the deportation of the Jewish population of Europe and French North Africa (Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia) to German-occupied areas in eastern Europe, and the use of the Jews fit for labour on road-building projects, in the course of which they would eventually die, the surviving remnant to be annihilated after completion of the projects. Instead, as Soviet forces gradually pushed back the German lines, most of the Jews of German-occupied Europe were sent to extermination or concentration camps, or killed where they lived. As a result of the efforts of historian Joseph Wulf, the Wannsee House, where the conference was held, is now a Holocaust Memorial.

Tell the children the truth says this (hat tip Hal)

It has become painfully evident to me that the majority of Islamic terrorism which we are experiencing in the world today is because of the efforts of the Grand Mufti of Palestine, Haj Amin al Husseini, from 1940 with his personal involvement in the Armenian holocaust up to the time he died in 1974. The Muslim efforts in Bosnia, Chechnya, Yugoslavia and the Caucuses relate directly to his Nazi brigades there in the 1940's. The evil machinations of the Muslim brotherhood are a direct result of his mentoring. Yasser Arafat was his nephew and protege'. His personal brand of poison spread to Pakistan, Indonesia and the rest of the world. Over a half century of pain and suffering all due to one very evil man. What I cannot understand and probably never will understand, is why Sir Herbert Samuel, a British Jew, put that SOB in charge of Palestine when "The Muslim community rejected his candidacy because he had not received any credible Islamic education. He was neither a Sheikh (religiously accredited leader) nor an Alim (Islamic scholar)." ...

Concluding with:

Amin Al Husseini influenced the Islamic world in Malaysia as President of World Islamic Congress in the last years of his life.

Tommy in the comment section:

Pamela, I agree with your logic: there has to be a reason they are not revealing the location. The Grand Mufti was interested in the mass murder of Jews in the Middle East. He was a friend of Himmler's and established an office in a building where Himmler's top deputy worked day to day. He even wrote to Hitler himself, asking for material help in the effort (see the Mufti's letter to Hitler).

He took a tour of Auschwitz and broadcast (from the Prinz-Albrecht-Palais) his desire to "kill all the Jews" daily on radio broadcasts. These broadcasts were sent to Italy and then the entire Middle East. He set the course for future generations of Muslims by murdering Jews in Yugoslavia and then using the pictures of dead Jews to claim Jews were killing Muslims.

It makes sense that HE was the one in possession of the blueprints, as he expressed a desire to do in the Mid-East what the SS was doing in Europe.

Why is the "Berlin flat" being hidden? It could be the same reason the Grand Mufti wasn't prosecuted after WWII: fear of a Muslim backlash.

Islam and its Reich: October 5, 1943, the Mufti arrived in Germany visiting the Research Institute on the Jewish Problem, where he declared that Muslims and Germans were “Partners and allies in the battle against world Jewry.”

In search of a lost world: Poland revives its Jewish past


By Ursula Hyzy (AFP) – 7 hours ago

WARSAW — Almost seven decades since Nazi Germany decimated Poland's Jews in death camps like the notorious Auschwitz, Europe's former Jewish heartland is reconnecting with a lost part of its identity.

The communists who took over after World War II imposed a wall of silence on a century of Jewish life here, but this has steadily crumbled since the regime's collapse in 1989.

Today, cultural festivals, cemetery restoration programmes across Poland, school Jewish history classes, national commemorations and burgeoning academic research are reclaiming the past.

"Actually the fact there was silence for 50 years, 20 years later many people have a greater appreciation of the role of Jews -- that's a very fast change," Poland's Chief Rabbi Michael Schudrich told AFP.

On the eve of the German invasion in 1939, Poland was home to Europe's largest Jewish community -- around 3.2 million people, representing 9-10 percent of the country's total population in the 1931 census.

Half of the six million Jews killed in the Holocaust were Polish. Most died in camps set up by the Germans in occupied Poland, such as Auschwitz-Birkenau, which has come to symbolise Nazi genocide, and whose January 27, 1945 liberation is being commemorated this week.

By early 1946, a year after the end of the war, Poland's Jews numbered only around 200,000, according to the Polish statistics office.

Most emigrated amid the creation of Israel in 1948, or during anti-Semitic campaigns by the communist regime in the 1950s and 1960s sparked in part by power struggles within the ruling party.

"Up until the 1990s there was no way to have an open, public and broad discussion on these issues, because of communism," said French academic Jean-Yves Potel, author of the 2009 work "The End of Innocence: Poland Facing its Jewish Past".

The Holocaust wiped out centuries of shared history between Jews and non-Jewish Poles. Jews first emigrated to Poland from western Europe to escape persecution there in the Middle Ages.

"Jews have been in Poland for almost 1,000 years. Jews were part and parcel of Polish existence, of the culture, of the intellectual life, of the economic life, of the political life," said Schudrich.

No one knows exactly how many Jews there are in the population of present-day Poland, a country of 38.5 million people, said Schudrich.

"Estimates are anywhere from 20,000-50,000 and the criteria is anecdotal," he explained.

Warsaw secondary school history teacher Robert Szuchta is a pioneer in Holocaust education in Poland who has also built an international reputation.

He regularly takes his pupils around Warsaw's former Jewish quarter -- mostly razed by the Nazis during a failed revolt in 1943 -- to help them empathise with the past in what before the war was the city with the second-largest Jewish population in the world, after New York.

"Look around you," he tells the youngsters. "One resident in three in the town where you live, where you were born and go to school, spoke Yiddish. Where's that world gone?"

"I don't have any family reason for doing this," he told AFP, noting that he does not have Jewish roots. "My personal reason is that this all hurts me everywhere."

Polish-Jewish and Holocaust history are compulsory subjects through three levels of secondary schooling in Poland, taught within the main history curriculum as well as in literature, geography, civics and philosophy classes.

Szuchta said he seeks to paint an honest picture. He steers his way between those in Poland who push the idea that every Pole heroically saved a Jew from the Nazis and those abroad who push a caricatural image of Polish anti-Semites turning in their Jewish neighbours.

Schudrich has seen attendees at his Warsaw synagogue -- the only one in the capital that survived the Nazi occupation -- get younger over the years as so-called "new Jews" discover lost roots and chose to leave the mainstream in a country that is overwhelmingly Roman Catholic.

The southern city of Krakow, long an important Jewish centre, buzzes every July to a major Jewish cultural festival.

Schudrich regularly gets asked for advice on small-town projects -- renovation of abandoned cemeteries, for example -- and says he's noticed a subtle but crucial change in the past couple of years.

"Beforehand, wonderful people would call and they would want to save 'your Jewish cemetery', and now they want to save 'our Jewish cemetery'," he said.

"It's really the return of Jewish memory as part of the national Polish memory," he explained.

5 arrested as Auschwitz sign recovered



(CNN) -- Police in Poland have recovered the infamous sign stolen from the front gate of the Auschwitz concentration camp and arrested five men, they announced Monday.

The "Arbeit Macht Frei" sign, which means "Work Sets You Free" in German and is synonymous with the Nazi camps of World War II, was stolen late last week from Auschwitz in Poland, police said Friday.

The theft prompted outrage around the world.

Five men in their 20s and 30s have been arrested, journalist Tomas Machala of CNN affiliate Polsat in the Polish capital Warsaw said Monday.

They were not neo-Nazis, he said, in response to speculation at the time of the theft that the far right was responsible.

"They have some criminal background," he said, noting they had been arrested for robbery and brawling in the past. He did not give their names.

"They wanted to sell the sign and earn some money," he said. Police said it was too early to say if they acted on their own or were hired to commit the robbery. They face up to 10 years in prison if they are convicted, Machala said.

It is not clear how they managed to steal the sign, which was cut into three pieces into order to fit it into a car, he said.

They were arrested hundreds of miles north of the concentration camp memorial, near the city of Gdansk. The sign had been hidden in a forest, Machala said.

Police were "alerted at 5 a.m. local time on Friday by museum guards" that the sign, was stolen, according to police spokeswoman Agnieszka Szczygiel.

The heavy iron sign "was removed by being unscrewed on one side and pulled off on the other," Szczygiel said.

The police investigation is ongoing.

The chairman of Yad Vashem, Israel's Holocaust museum, called the theft shocking.

"The theft of such a symbolic object is an attack on the memory of the Holocaust, and an escalation from those elements that would like to return us to darker days," Avner Shalev said Friday.

"I call on all enlightened forces in the world -- who fight against anti-semitism, racism, xenophobia and the hatred of the other -- to join together to combat these trends," he said.

More than 1 million people died in gas chambers or were starved to death in the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp complex; about 90 percent of the victims were Jews.

Rabbi Marvin Hier, founder and dean of the Los Angeles-based Simon Wiesenthal Center, called the sign "the defining symbol of the Holocaust.

"Everyone knew that this was not a place where work makes you free, but it was the place where millions of men, women, and children were brought for one purpose only -- to be murdered," Hier said. "The audacity and boldness of this crime deserves the full attention of the Polish government."

The center calls itself one of the largest international Jewish human rights organizations.

Hunt for Auschwitz Arbeit Macht Frei sign thieves

Arbeit Macht Frei sign
Hundreds of thousands of people passed under the sign to their deaths

Polish police are using a sniffer dog in their search for thieves who took the infamous Arbeit Macht Frei sign over the entrance to Auschwitz.

Detectives and other police officers were sent to the site of the former Nazi camp where more than one million people, mostly Jewish, were murdered.

A replica of the sign, which translates as "Work Sets You Free", has been put up temporarily.

The theft on Friday has caused outrage in Israel, Poland and elsewhere.

"The theft of such a symbolic object is an attack on the memory of the Holocaust, and an escalation from those elements that would like to return us to darker days," said Avner Shalev from the Yad Vashem memorial centre in Jerusalem.

"I call on all enlightened forces in the world who fight against anti-Semitism, racism, xenophobia and the hatred of the other to join together to combat these trends."

In Brussels, European Parliament President Jerzy Buzek, a former Polish prime minister, appealed to the thieves to return the sign.

"Give it back out of respect for the suffering of over a million victims, murdered in this Nazi camp, the biggest cemetery of humankind," he said.

Metal bars cut

The wrought-iron sign was half-unscrewed, half-torn off from above the death camp's gate between 0330 and 0500 on Friday, said a police spokeswoman.

Investigators say at least two people would have been needed to steal the 5-m (16-ft), 40-kg (90-lb) sign.

Police said they were reviewing footage from a surveillance camera that overlooks the entrance gate and the road beyond but declined to say whether the crime was recorded, The Associated Press news agency reports.

Auschwitz museum spokesman Jaroslaw Mensfelt said it might have been too dark for the camera to have captured images.

He said the thieves apparently carried the sign 300m (yards) to an opening in a concrete wall. The opening was left intentionally to preserve a poplar tree dating back to the time of World War II.

Four metal bars that had blocked the opening had been cut and footprints in the snow led from the wall opening to the nearby road, where police presume the sign was loaded on to a vehicle.

Another police official said earlier that while all leads were being considered, police were focusing on a theft ordered by a private collector or a group of individuals.

It is the first time the sign, made by Polish prisoners, has been stolen since it was erected in 1940.

A 5,000-zloty ($1,700; £1,050) reward has been offered for information leading to the capture of the thieves.

Auschwitz, which receives more than a million visitors a year, has been run as a state museum since 1947.

Germany recently pledged 60m euros ($86m) to an endowment fund to help preserve the camp.
