THE WARREN COMMISSION LEARNED IT FROM THE NUREMBERG COURT

As everybody knows, the Warren Commission rewrote the laws of physics with its magical “single bullet” theory. This bullet did things never seen before or since. It changed directions and went through bones and marrow without leaving a dent on the casing or shell. It was also fired from an inferior gun with a bad sight by a lousy marksman with pin-point accuracy. It left major holes as entrance wounds and minor holes as exit wounds. This bullet was truly marvelous. But let no one think that the fabulous “single bullet” was unique. It was not. Its prototype, the “gas chambers” of Adolf Hitler, were even more fabulous. Those gas chambers were built underground at Auschwitz. This greatly facilitated the dispersal of the gas which is usually dealt with by building the gassing facility above ground. Then too, the “gas chambers” were not properly sealed or ventilated. They had no means of heating the gas to the necessary temperature for dispersal. And the room was not even big enough to hold the claimed number of victims. Hardly any trace of Zyklon B “Prussian Blue” residue can be found in the chambers where millions of Jews were supposedly killed. Why, it is enough to make JFK’s head explode a second time.

The Warren Commission managed to ignore all kinds of evidence from witnesses who saw shots coming from the grassy knoll, rather than the Texas Book Depository building. They overlooked evidence that Oswald was actually employed as an agent by the FBI. And they managed to rewrite witness statements to make the original statements mean what the Commission wanted them to say. They would not let Jack Ruby tell what he knew although Ruby badly wanted to talk. And, of course, they let the Dallas police Department do its own investigation of who let Ruby into the basement of the Dallas police headquarters to shoot Ruby. Naturally, the Dallas Police concluded that Ruby, a man with deep connections to hundreds of officers in the Department, got in all by himself.

It was all very innovative. Now, where did the Warren Commission learn these investigatory techniques? Why, at Nuremberg obviously! At Nuremberg hardly an original German document was introduced. All the documents were “certified copies of copies”. Genuine German documents of the Auschwitz camp were carted off by the Soviet Union and concealed from the tribunal. Thus, the Jews testifying to “gassings” at the tribunal did not have to explain the German records that showed only about 150,000 deaths of all causes at the camp (only a percentage of which were Jews).They were not confronted by the fact that the Zyklon B used at the camp was used to control typhus epidemics by killing typhus bearing lice or the fact that the crematory ovens were there to burn bodies that died of disease. Heinrich Himmler’s order that the “death rate in the camps was to be reduced at all costs” was, of course, not introduced. No one performed any forensic tests of the alleged “gas chambers”. (That was only done fifty years later.) Genuine German records showing that German policy was to deport the Jews to the occupied territories in the east were suppressed. So too, was Adolf Hitler’s dictum that he wanted “the Jewish question shelved until the end of the war”. The fact that the Communist governments being imposed on Eastern Europe after the war was 75% Jewish was not mentioned at Nuremberg. After all, was it conceivable that the Jews supposedly being exterminated were actually hiding out east of the Ural Mountains during the war? A Jewish newspaper in Sweden during the war claimed that 50-75% of Russia’s Communist Jews had been evacuated eastward before the Wehrmacht arrived. This newspaper was naturally not quoted by the prosecution at Nuremberg.

The Nuremberg Court, like the Warren Commission, arrived at the conclusions it wanted to reach. This process was aided and abetted by the fact that 2400 out of the 3000 total personnel behind the scenes at Nuremberg were Jews. Robert Jackson, Francis Biddle, Sir Hartley Shawcross and others were merely the front men for the real orchestrators of the kangaroo court. It was rather like the Warren Commission, where the presence of Allen Dulles was to help cover up the involvement of U.S. intelligence agencies in the president’s murder. Earl Warren, the man who was responsible for the round up and internment of Japanese-Americans in World War Two, was the Robert Jackson of the Warren Commission. The German defendants at Nuremberg were hung during the Jewish high holidays in October between the Day of Atonement and the Day of Final Judgment. They were ritually executed, just like Lee Harvey Oswald was ritually sacrificed to a pre-determined verdict and judgment.

The Kennedy assassination has generated an enormous literature disagreeing with the obviously doctored official conclusion. But the literature disproving the kangaroo court at Nuremberg is still very much underground. It is read privately by those deathly afraid of career destruction if they are found out. But the deniers of the mythical six million and the deniers of the mythical single bullet have something in common, nonetheless. Both are seekers after truth. And the truth, surprisingly enough, is the same in both cases. The real killers of John Kennedy were they who concocted the hoax of the “gas chambers”. And the motive, in both cases, was the same – to promote the interests of the emerging, and later extant, state of Israel. But that is another story for another essay.
