      Auschwitz was occupied by the Communists on January 27, 1945. They   
   made reports about what they claim to have found. These initial   
   reports had not yet been adapted to allied propaganda. The reports   
   were published on February 1 and 2, 1945 in the Soviet propaganda   
   organ Pravda. Here are some things it said:   
      
      "the Germans in Auschwitz began to remove the traces of their   
   crimes"   
      
     "They leveled the burial grounds."   
      
     "They removed and destroyed all traces of the electric conveyer   
   system, where hundreds of people at one time were electrocuted."   
      
     "The stationary gas chambers in the east side of the camp were   
   remodeled."   
      
     "This huge death mill was equipped with the latest style of fascist   
   technology..."   
      
        The Communists did not even claim to have seen any killing   
   machines or rooms. Supposedly it was all destroyed or remodeled. They   
   did not allow the other allies to enter the camp, and they did not   
   supply any pictures or blueprints or any physical evidence.   
   Nevertheless, the United Press correspondent, Henry Shapiro,   
   obediently echoed the Soviets story.   
      
      The Soviets said that the Auschwitz complex was entirely a "murder   
   machine". There was not a single word to indicate that the camp was   
   part of the German armament industries, as we now know it clearly was.   
      
     Even if the Germans had "leveled" the alleged huge grave pits the   
   bodies would still be present. However anyone familiar with the matter   
   knows that in Auschwitz no large grave sites were ever found.   
      
      The Communists did not allow any inspection of the camps by foreign   
   observers for many months afterwards and their claims conflict with   
   what "holocaust experts" say today. Today the experts all talk of  gas   
   chambers in Birkenau, a part of the camp far to the west. This is much   
   different from where the Communists initially claimed that they were.   
      
      The initial Communist reports also do not mention things that are   
   now claimed to have been there. There is no mention of a pile of   
   eyeglasses, or hair, or shoes. There is no mention of underground gas   
   chambers. There is no mention of "farmhouses" remodeled to be gas   
   chambers. There is no mention of the rivers clogged with human ashes.   
      
      
     Today tourists can go to Auschwitz and be shown a "gas chamber".   
   This is admitted by the experts not to be genuine.

   "You're confusing Krema I with Kremas II-V.  Krema I is a   
   reconstruction,  this has never been a secret.  Kremas II-V   
   are in their demolished state as they were left."

   "Certainly not! The word "fake" implies a deliberate attempt to   
   deceive.   
      
   "The staff of the Auschwitz museum will readily explain that the Nazis   
   tried to destroy the gas chambers in a futile attempt to conceal their   
   crimes. And they'll tell you that reconstruction was done later on. So   
   it would be dishonest for me to call it a "fake". I'll cheerfully   
   admit that it's a "reconstruction" if that makes you happy."
