HC BST: Chapter 2

"A group of documents67 describes the massacre of Jewish prisoners in Poltava military prison on March 25, 1942.
67 Discovered by Sergey Romanov." (p.104)

"the conventions of scholarship ensure that footnote and other references are used in scholarly historical work to pinpoint precisely where the historian has obtained information, and to allow the reader to check up on this if so desired." [...]

"Often he (David Irving) will attempt to disguise what he is doing by rendering his footnote references opaque rather than transparent, flouting one of the most basic requirements of historical scholarship in the process."
- Professor Richard Evans, David Irving, Hitler and Holocaust Denial. 2.4.2 & 2.4.9 Documents and sources

"The distortion of this documentation is so blatant that it amounts to a strategy of deliberately hiding smoking guns." (p.144)

Roberto Muehlenkamp confirmed to me on rodoh (which is no more, so I can not post a link to his comments, but I know Mr Muehlenkamp will confirm this.) that he too would have omitted 50% of the German wartime photos of Krema II's Leichenkeller I at Auschwitz-Birkenau, had he been involved with his "fellow-travellers" Daniel Keren, Jamie McCarthy, and Harry W. Mazal, in concocting the The Ruins of the Gas Chambers: A Forensic Investigation of Crematoriums at Auschwitz I and Auschwitz-Birkenau, which claims to have found 3 of the 4 Zyklon-B introduction holes in the remains of the roof of Leichenkeller I (the "gas chamber"). There is actually only two German wartime photos of Leichenkeller I, they built their case on one, whilst omitting the other. Mr Muehlenkamp insisted that the excluded 50% of the German photos of Leichenkeller 1, proves nothing either way, therefore excluding the "snow photo" was perfectly acceptable behaviour. When in actuality it is a "suppression of evidence", a criminal offence in a U.S. court, and "so blatant that it amounts to a strategy of deliberately hiding smoking guns."

You were told where to find information on the gassing with Lorpicrin, including the archival reference of the German document that was quoted; didn't seem to help you much, as you still seem to seek a way out.

You would quickly lose that specious wager (despite several different references to that archive in the work, unlike Mattogno who cites one document from one archive in Minsk in one of his books). And so what if you "can't find cited elsewhere" material that is discussed in HC's critique, citing primary secondary material (or a combination). You were given primary & secondary information on the Lorpicrin reference, and you're trying to make a deal out of... what again?

I guess that is to be expected from someone who posts a few comments and snippets in response to hundreds of pages of material, though.
