GERMAR <strong>RUDOLF</strong> · <strong>THE</strong> <strong>RUDOLF</strong> <strong>REPORT</strong>Prof. Roth might have felt obligated to attack Leuchter in order toavoid becoming himself a target of certain lobby groups who alreadymanaged to destroy Leuchter’s career. That would explain why thetruth temporarily dropped into a hole in Prof. Roth’s memory whilebeing interview by Errol Morris. It is also revealing that Prof. Rothmentioned during this interview, if he had known where Leuchter’ssamples originated from, his analytical results would have been different.Does that mean that Prof. Roth manipulates his result according towhether or not he likes the origin of certain samples? Such an attitudeis exactly the reason why one should never tell an ‘independent’ laboratoryabout the origin of the samples to be analyzed, simply because‘independence’ is a very flexible term when it comes to controversialtopics. What Prof. Dr. Roth has demonstrated here is only his lack ofprofessional honesty.8.4.4. The Moon is Made of PizzaAnother strange story is that of Richard Green, a PhD Chemistwith quite similar educational background as I have. 63-65 The laymanwould expect two experts, with similar educational background, tocome to similar conclusions in questions relating to their expertknowledge. But this is only partly the case. The reason for this is thatDr. Green ignores many facts that are either supported by documentaryevidence—like the performance of the ventilation installed in crematoriaII and III, or the speed of executions in U.S. execution chambers—or by expert literature—like the higher tendency of cold, moist walls toadsorb HCN, and the longer lasting alkalinity of cement mortar comparedto lime mortar.However, Dr. Green makes some concessions which are importantto note:a) He agrees that basically all witnesses attest to very short executiontimes, indicating a rather high concentration of HCN used.b) He also agrees “that Rudolf is correct or nearly correct regardingthe formation of blue staining in the delousing chambers.”What he does challenge, though, is the possibility of formation ofany noticeable quantities of Iron Blue in the homicidal ‘gas chambers.’One of his flawed and deficient arguments to support his thesis is thatin his view, no noticeable amounts of cyanide could have accumulatedin the walls of the morgues (‘gas chambers’).
