In European countries it is dangerous to investigate Holocaust claims, because anything less than a regurgitation of the official narrative brings a prison sentence.\u00a0 A person might think that if the official story is true, Zionists would want it investigated.\u00a0 It would be a great victory for Zionists if the Holocaust were investigated by objective gentile scholars and found to be true.\u00a0 Instead, there is an Iron Curtain of censorship preventing any investigation of the claims.<\/p>\n<p>Consequently, the only people who can investigate the Holocaust are Jews.\u00a0 Norman Finkelstein calls the Holocaust an \u201cindustry.\u201d\u00a0 Ron Unz, quotes many Jewish dissenters from the story and himself comes to remarkable conclusions.<\/p>\n<p>Why is the question important?\u00a0 Every country has its national myths, so why shouldn\u2019t Zionist Israel?<\/p>\n<p>The problem with national myths, or some of them, is that false portrayals of history can coerce people into living a false reality.\u00a0 Consider, for example, \u201cAmerican Exceptionalism,\u201d a creation of American liberal interventionists.\u00a0 This concept was transformed by neoconservatives into Washington\u2019s hegemony over American citizens and the world.\u00a0\u00a0It has become a dangerous ideology promising nuclear conflict with Russia and China.<\/p>\n<p>The Holocaust has a similar implication.\u00a0 If the Holocaust justifies any and all Israeli actions, normal constraints on the outbreak of war are set aside.\u00a0 The consequences, as we see in Gaza, can be horrific.<\/p>\n<p>Countries need a good opinion of themselves even if they don\u2019t deserve it.\u00a0 But the arrogance and hubris associated with self-justification need to be restrained by a realistic view.\u00a0 The problems between people and countries come from one or both parties having unrealistic views of their responsibility for the conflict.\u00a0 In a world in which weapons have the capability of ending all life, we must give priority to realism.<\/p>\n<p>And we have so little of it.\u00a0 The official narrative of the so-called \u201cAmerican civil war\u201d is false. The official narrative of WW I is false.\u00a0 The official narrative of WW II is false. The official narratives of President John F. Kennedy\u2019s assassination and that of his brother are false.\u00a0 The official narrative of the Waco massacre is false.\u00a0 The official narrative of 9\/11 is false.\u00a0 The official narrative of the \u201cCovid pandemic\u201d is false.\u00a0 And so on.\u00a0 Every country has its own false narratives.<\/p>\n<p>The accumulation of false narratives creates a false understanding, the consequence being that people end up living in a historically false reality.\u00a0 If reality cannot be perceived, its demands cannot be understood and faced.\u00a0 This is where we stand today.<\/p>\n<p>With false portrayals of reality all around us, it is possible that the Holocaust is just another one.\u00a0 But only Jews can look into the question as Ron Unz does here <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unz.com\/runz\/american-pravda-israel-and-the-holocaust-hoax\/\">https:\/\/www.unz.com\/runz\/american-pravda-israel-and-the-holocaust-hoax\/<\/a>\u00a0 and\u00a0 here\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unz.com\/runz\/american-pravda-jews-and-nazis\/\">https:\/\/www.unz.com\/runz\/american-pravda-jews-and-nazis\/<\/a> .<\/p>\n<p>Among the large numbers of anomalies in the Holocaust narrative is the established fact that Field Marshall Erhard Milch, Goering\u2019s number-two commander in the Luftwaffe, was Jewish as were large numbers of high-ranking officers and 150,000 German troops:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYet another strange element, thoroughly documented but rather difficult to square with the traditional Holocaust narrative is that large numbers of part-Jewish Germans served loyally in Hitler\u2019s armies, with some of them holding very high military ranks:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConsider the interesting case of Field Marshal Erhard Milch, Hermann Goering\u2019s very powerful number-two in the German Luftwaffe. His father was certainly a Jew, and according to researchers Robert Wistrich and Louis Snyder, there is archival evidence that his mother was Jewish as well. Now it is certainly not impossible that a Third Reich supposedly dedicated with grim fanaticism to the extermination of each and every Jew might have spent the entire war with a full- or half-Jew near the absolute top of its military hierarchy, but surely that puzzling anomaly would warrant careful explanation, and Milch\u2019s apparent Jewish background was certainly known during the Nuremberg Trials\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndeed, the fascinating and widely-praised 2002 book Hitler\u2019s Jewish Soldiers by Bryan Mark Rigg notes that aside from Milch, Hitler\u2019s military contained over a dozen half-Jewish generals and admirals and another dozen quarter-Jews of that same high rank, plus a total of roughly 150,000 additional half- or quarter-Jewish soldiers, with a large fraction of these being officers. All of these individuals would have had some fully-Jewish parents or grand-parents, which seems decidedly odd behavior for a regime supposedly so focused on the total eradication of the Jewish race.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI discussed all of these issues and many others as well in my very long 2018 article, as well as a related piece published the following year.\u201d \u2014 Ron Unz <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unz.com\/runz\/american-pravda-israel-and-the-holocaust-hoax\/\">https:\/\/www.unz.com\/runz\/american-pravda-israel-and-the-holocaust-hoax\/<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"dzCGONwTPa\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paulcraigroberts.org\/pages\/donate\/\">Donate<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Donate&#8221; &#8212; PaulCraigRoberts.org\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paulcraigroberts.org\/pages\/donate\/embed\/#?secret=pYn9jVAzVa#?secret=dzCGONwTPa\" data-secret=\"dzCGONwTPa\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paulcraigroberts.org\/2024\/01\/09\/jews-question-the-holocaust-narrative\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s significant that Paul Craig Robert is taking another look at the Holocaust.
