The guy is an
atheist born to jewish parents, he visits Auschwitz, goes on the tour
and asks a lot of polite but probing questions. He also interviews a man
at Auschwitz named Franciszek Piper who is one of the historians based
there.
Initially, Cole goes through some of the things shown on
the tour and points out that they don't specifically prove anything. For
instance, on the tour there is a room full of clothes and shoes,
claimed to be the belongings of jews who were stripped prior to being
gassed. Cole says, ok, so there are a lot of shoes and clothes here, but
that doesn't mean that jews were necessarily exterminated en masse; he
points out that arrivals to Auschwitz were given uniforms as an
explanation as to why the clothes and shoes were taken from them.
Cole
narrows it down to a particular building at Auschwitz which, according
to the tour, was used as a gas chamber. He says the claims of the
holocaust really hinge on whether or not the gas chamber really was a
gas chamber. He then brings up a number of questions which bring a lot
of doubt as to whether or not the gas chamber is really what it is
claimed.
- The gas chamber is shown as a large empty concrete
room. But Cole also shows in the video signs of removal of internal
walls, and a toilet.
-- The tour guide tells him, the gas chamber is
as it was originally.
-- But when he questions somebody else, he is
told the opposite.
-- Franciszek Piper tells Cole that, in the later
stages of the war, the gas chamber was converted into a bomb shelter due
to British air raids on Auschwitz. After the war, according to Piper,
the internal walls were removed to return the 'object' to its original
state.
-- Cole questions why the tour guide would be told to say
something that is contrary to the facts; this is one reason to doubt
that the gas chamber is what it is claimed to be. |
