Reddit mentions of Belzec, Sobibor, Treblinka: The Operation Reinhard Death Camps

TTrns said:

>dug up some time later, and the damp bodies stacked 20-30 high, in rows on top of rail tracks, and burned in the open air, year round, with no wind shield, and 70cm of room for wood fuel beneath.

and you replied with

>Look at how precise your bullshit is. But how large would this space have been for them to have burned down 700,000 corpses simultaneously? Well, 1.5M x 700,000 = 1,050,000 metres head-to-toe so this entire idea is a little silly, right? Clearly they weren't all killed at the very same time? Nobody is saying that - you're grappling with an unreasonable claim, rather than the more reasonable claim that Jews were brought in separate sections and not all at once.

lol. Do you not realize that TTrns is quoting the officially accepted story? This is straight from Yitzhak Arad's seminal work on the Reinhardt camps http://i.imgur.com/EURcXp7.jpg

30m wide, 3000 bodies means 30 layers of 100 bodies over top 70cm of wood. 800k bodies burned, 3000 at a time this way.

You calling this "bullshit" and claiming that "nobody is saying that" shows your total and utter ignorance on the holocaust topic.

You've never read a single book on the holocaust and you think that you can argue with someone that has?

After reading this none of the videos ever really seemed to capture the barbarity of the holocaust. The thing is, the worst parts of the holocaust were not recorded. The videos only show the aftermath. The other thing about the holocaust is that concentration camps and death camps were two completely different things. We know so much about Auschwitz because it wasn't an extermination camp, many people survived Auschwitz. Operation Reinhard, though, you can probably count on two hands the number of people who survived those camps.
