J. GRAF, T. KUES, C. MATTOGNO, SOBIBÓR 289
The importance of this document can be judged by the fact that
Christopher R. Browning suppresses it completely, even where he tries
to refute the revisionist thesis of a transit camp Sobibór in a text which
claims to furnish “Documentary Evidence concerning the Camps of
Beec, Sobibór, and Treblinka.” He states: 878
“If the documents concerning the Einsatzgruppen and the ‘special
trucks’ speak openly about the methods of killing, i.e. shooting
and gassing, such is not the case with the documents concerning the
camps located in the three tiny villages of Beec, Sobibór, and
Treblinka, to which most Polish Jews were deported. Nonetheless,
the quite scant surviving documentation makes clear that these were
neither labor camps nor transit camps, and Jews were sent there
simply to be killed. […]
The scant surviving documentary evidence concerning the purpose
of Sobibór indicates that the Germans considered it in the same
category as Treblinka and Beec, but that it was inaccessible due to
rail-line repairs during the peak months of the killing campaign of
July-October 1942.”
In the absence of any documentary proof regarding Treblinka and
Beec Browning actually declares that these camps therefore were not
transit camps but extermination camps and then, by analogy, goes on to
say that Sobibór as well was an extermination camp, disregarding the
three documents which speak of it explicitly as a transit camp!
Other “holocaust” historians use the subterfuge of camouflage
measures instead. Raul Hilberg for example writes: 879
“A standard concealment measure was verbal camouflage. The
most important and possibly most misleading term used for the killing
centers collectively was the ‘East.’ This phrase was employed
again and again during the deportations. For camps, there were a
variety of headings […]. Sobibór was appropriately called a Durchgangslager
(transit camp). Since it was located near the Bug, on
the border of the occupied eastern territories, the designation fitted
the myth of the ‘eastern migration.’ When Himmler proposed one
day that the camp be designated a Konzentrationslager, Pohl opposed
the change.”
