BARNES REVIEW HOLOCAUST HANDBOOK SERIES • VOLUME 19 19 BARNES REVIEW HOLOCAUST HANDBOOK SERIES • VOLUME 19 SOBIBÓR: SOBIBÓR HOLOCAUST PROPAGANDA AND REALITY SOBIBÓR HOLOCAUST PROPAGANDA AND REALITY n May 2009, 89-year-old Cleveland autoworker John Demjanjuk was de- ported from the United States to Germany, where he was arrested and HOLOCAUST PROPAGANDA AND REALITY Icharged with aiding and abetting murder in at least 27,900 cases. These mass murders were allegedly perpetrated at the Sobibór “death” camp in east- ern Poland. According to mainstream historiography, 170,000 to 250,000 Jews were exterminated there in gas chambers between 1942 and 1943. The corpses were buried in mass graves and later incinerated on an open-air pyre. But do these serious claims really stand up to scrutiny? In Sobibor: Holocaust Propaganda and Reality, the official version of what transpired at Sobibór is put under the microscope. It is shown that the histori- ography of the camp is not based on solid evidence, but on the selective use of eyewitness testimonies, which in turn are riddled with contradictions and out- right absurdities. This book could exonerate John Demjanjuk. For more than half a century, mainstream Holocaust historians made no real attempts to muster material evidence for their claims about Sobibór. Finally, in the 21st century, professional historians carried out an archeological survey at the former camp site. Their findings—and the findings of many oth- ers—are here presented in detail and fatal implications for the extermination camp theory are revealed. SOBIBOR: HOLOCAUST PROPAGANDA AND REALITY (softcover, 434 pages, indexed, illustrated, #536, $25 minus 10% for TBR subscribers) can be ordered from TBR BOOK CLUB, P.O.

ENGLISH Original: RUSSIAN Delegation of the Russian Federation
PC.DEL/97/18 1 February 2018 ENGLISH Original: RUSSIAN Delegation of the Russian Federation STATEMENT BY MR. ALEXANDER LUKASHEVICH, PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION, AT THE 1174th MEETING OF THE OSCE PERMANENT COUNCIL 1 February 2018 In response to the address by the Chair of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance Mr. Chairperson, I should like to take this opportunity to express our support for the successful OSCE conference on anti-Semitism, which was held in Rome on 29 January. Mr. Galizia, We thank you for your insightful address. Seventy-three years ago Red Army soldiers liberated the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp, also known as Oświęcim. In 2005, the United Nations officially proclaimed 27 January International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust. I should also like to recall that on 27 January we marked the 74th anniversary of the complete liberation of Leningrad from the Nazi siege. This was yet another act of heroism by Soviet soldiers, before whom we bow our heads. Soviet troops brought a halt to one of the “death factories” in which up to 4 million people, including around a million Jews, had been systematically exterminated. All told, more than 6 million people became victims of the Holocaust. For the peoples of Russia, as for the other peoples of the multi-ethnic Soviet Union, who sacrificed more than 26 million lives for victory in the Second World War, the preservation of the historical memory of these terrible events remains a national responsibility. Jews themselves made a significant contribution to the victory over Nazism.

INDIVIDUAL PROFILE CARDS UNITED STATES HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL MUSEUM Faiga (Fanny) Orenbach was born into an Orthodox Jewish family in Łódź, Poland. The family moved to Brussels, Belgium when she was a young child, where her parents became active in the Jewish community. Fanny earned a art degree and designed clothing for the Royal House of Belgium. In May 1938, Fanny married Jacques Aizenberg, and less than a year later, gave birth to a daughter, Josiane. Germany invaded Belgium on May 10, 1940. Jacques left immediately to join the military, and after Belgium was defeated, he evacuated to England. Although she was Jewish, Fanny soon became actively involved in the resistance movement, hiding refugees in her attic. In October 1942, a few months after Fanny’s father was arrested, Fanny put Josiane in hiding. Fanny and her mother, Rivke, also went into hiding, but the Gestapo discovered and arrested them in 1943. They were beaten and taken to the Mechelen (Malines) transit camp. After ten days in Mechelen, Fanny and Rivke were deported to Auschwitz. Upon arrival at Auschwitz, Fanny and Rivke were placed in separate lines. Fanny Orenbach Aizenberg Fanny never saw her mother again. Fanny found encouragement from a group of six women. Together, they endured beatings, forced labor in a grenade factory, cruel and painful medical experiments, and the many other Born 1916 horrors of Auschwitz. Łódź, Poland In January 1945, the SS evacuated Auschwitz, sending Fanny and tens of thousands of prisoners on a forced march in frozen temperatures. After four months, Fanny and the other survivors were liberated near the Elbe River by the Soviet Red Army.

This is expressed in many ways. Wherever Jews have lived, they have built synagogues and schools, and have established social and charitable organisations. Today, the concept of community has changed. While dispersed geographically throughout Europe, we live lives that are intimately connected through social media and mass com- munications. It is right that we feel an empathy and a responsibility to this expanded and wider community as once we felt it only to our imme- diate physical neighbourhood. The European Jewish Fund takes the traditional model of Jewish philanthropy and expands it in a way that meets today’s denition of Jewish community. It aims at linking those from afar with the targeted resources to meet their specic needs and aspirations, spreading Jewish education, culture and social interac- tion, building a united Jewish community for the 21st century in all its diversity. The EJF takes the traditional I thank all our grantees for enabling the Euro- pean Jewish Fund to be part of this Jewish life in model of Jewish philanthropy Europe and encourage you to provide further opportunities for us to assist all our communi- and expands it in a way that ties in our collective mission.

Press Release: from the Organizing Committee of the 70 Anniversary
Press Release: From the Organizing Committee of the 70th Anniversary Commemoration of Zmievskaya Balka – “Russia’s Babi Yar” 15 February 2012 Dear Friends: Please disseminate the following press release by the committee organizing the 70th Anniversary Commemoration of Zmievskaya Balka – “Russia’s Babi Yar.” Scheduled events will commemorate a series of mass executions by Nazis just outside the city of Rostov, Russia between 1942 and 1943. While grassroots commemorative initiatives have taken place since the early 1990s by Rostov’s small Jewish community, 2012 marks the first major effort to commemorate the Holocaust in Rostov publicly. The planning process takes place amidst conflict over the recent decision by Rostov government officials to take down a memorial plaque that was erected in 2004, identifying most of the 27,000 Zmievskaya Balka victims as Jewish. The replacement plaque does not mention Jews, but rather the “peaceful citizens of Rostov-on-Don and Soviet prisoners-of-war.” Having struggled for decades to battle exclusionary nationalism and anti-Semitism in the construction of public memory of the events at Zmievskaya Balka, Rostov’s Jewish community and the diaspora it has yielded have been spurred to action and are seeking support as well as information, donations of artifacts and broad participation in the commemorative activities. 70th Anniversary Commemoration of Zmievskaya Balka – “Russia’s Babi Yar” Rostov on Don, Russia, August 12-14, 2012 Organizing Committee Announcement August 2012 marks the 70th anniversary of the beginning of mass executions of Jews by the Nazis in Rostov on Don, Russia, in the Zmievskaya “balka” - a huge ravine on the edge of this southern Russian city of over one million residents.

Why Story of Sobibor
Story of Sobibor Sobibor was one of the death camps during the Second World War, but why so little is known about it? This camp was the only one that had a successful escape. The question is what happened next with the heroes who managed to escape it. I’ll discuss not the film “Sobibor” finally appeared on screen, but why so little is known or unknown about that. There are questions as to why Weisspapier and Rosenfeld could not become heroes of the Soviet Country. Why did they keep silent about the tragedy of Sobibor? Why is it that now they suddenly started talking about Sobibor and what did they finally talk about? Have you heard much about Sobibor? Do you know much about the uprising in this camp, by the way the only successful one in the history of the war? About the brave souls who dared to escape and how their lives turned out afterwards? I haven’t heard. This tragic story was never popular in the USSR and at school we were not taught about this. And so the film came out, which is now being advertised through all kinds of channels. There was a private showing in Germany and in Israel. The camp lasted a year in a half ( from May 15 1942 to October 15 1943). It was created as Operation Reinhard with the goal of mass extermination of the Jewish population of Poland (as well as the Netherlands, France, Czechoslavakia, and the USSR. There were about 250 thousand Jews killed in this camp.
