states and were then sent on to Stutth<strong>of</strong> 1052 when these regions were<br />

about to be abandoned by the German army. For that reason we do not<br />

have to consider Hungary in this respect.<br />

Table 13 indicates the number <strong>of</strong> Jews sent to Auschwitz from countries<br />

other than Hungary as the well as the percentage claimed to have<br />

been “gassed without registration” (or moved further east in our opinion):<br />

1053<br />

Hence, about 354,000 Jews were moved east from Auschwitz,<br />

among them some 149,000 Poles and some 205,000 persons from countries<br />

other than Poland.<br />

10.2.4. Balance<br />

We can now draw our conclusions regarding the number <strong>of</strong> Jews deported<br />

into the eastern areas:<br />

Deported via the Aktion Reinhardt camps: ~1,429,000<br />

Deported via Chemno: ~145,300<br />

Deported via Auschwitz: ~354,000<br />

Deported directly w/o any stop-over in a camp: ~66,200<br />

Total: ~1,994,500<br />

<strong>of</strong> which Polish Jews:<br />

(1,288,200 + 134,300 + 149,000 =) ~1,571,500<br />

<strong>of</strong> which non-Polish Jews:<br />

(140,800 + 11,000 + 205,000 + 66,200 =) ~423,000<br />

Obviously, one has to deduct from these figures the deportees who<br />

died on the way to or at the transit camps. In the case <strong>of</strong> Sobibór we estimated<br />

their number to have amounted to about 10,000 persons, i.e.<br />

deportees who either died along the way or were killed in the camps in<br />

euthanasia operations – a practice which we believe to be probable although<br />

it is not documented. 1054 As the conditions at Beec and Treblinka<br />

hardly differed from those at Sobibór and in view <strong>of</strong> the far greater<br />

number <strong>of</strong> people involved, the number <strong>of</strong> persons who died in these<br />

two camps or on the way there must have been much higher than in the<br />

case <strong>of</strong> Sobibór.<br />

1053 The table was set up by Carlo Mattogno on the basis <strong>of</strong> his article “Franciszek Piper und<br />

die Zahl der Opfer von Auschwitz,” Vierteljahreshefte für freie Geschichtsforschung,<br />

7(1) (2003), pp. 21-27, and <strong>of</strong> data in D. Czech, op. cit. (note 825).<br />
