THE RUDOLF REPORT

GERMAR RUDOLF · THE RUDOLF REPORTTable 1: Arguments relating to the Zyklon B introduction columnsALLEGATIONZyklon B introductionstacks are visible onmorgue 1 (‘gas chamber’)crematoria II andIII on an air photo.The filling stacks arevisible on a groundphoto of crematorium II.For planned introductionholes, cleanly cast andreinforced holes withconcrete/brick stacksprotruding over the layerof soil laying on this roofwould have to be expected.For holes chiseled in, thereinforcement rodswould have to be removed,the edges polishedoff, and a protrudingstack built. Suchholes would be severelydamaged by an explosion.The installation of introductiondevices runningfrom the ceiling to thefloor requires panicprooffixtures, like massiverawl-plugs and hoopirons with dovetailsFACTAn analysis of this air photo proves that the spotsvisible have no spatial height, have an irregular shape,an incorrect size (much too long and wide), and irregulardirections different from real shadows; thesespots can therefore neither be shadows of any objects,nor can they be the legendary Zyklon B introductionstacks.These three objects are only visible on one photograph;on others they are missing. They stand closelytogether, have different dimensions and irregularalignment. Introduction stacks would have the samesize, a regular alignment and evenly distributed overthe roof. The objects do not accord with the holesactually found, either in location or in number.The only two holes deserving this name clearly showchisel marks; the concrete structure was destroyed at alater time; there are no smooth, cast concrete edgesand surfaces, no stack-like elevation to prevent theentry of rain water and soil into the hole. All othercracks and openings are highly irregular, filled withreinforcements rods, and obviously caused by thecollapsing roof being pierced by pillars and bent overthe longitudinal beam.In all cases the reinforcement rods still project intothe holes; in one case, these were only cut throughand bent back. The edges of all holes and cracks werenot plastered; the tar insulation is openly visible; thereis no trace of any stacks added. The ‘best’ of theseholes is in an area unaffected by the explosion thatblew up this morgue, proving that this hole was chiseledin after the war.No trace of such fixtures can be found anywhere,hence no such devices were ever installed.134
