Bad Arolson

Is the home of the International Tracing Service which deals with the aftermath of the Second World War, with refugees, the lost and the missing. They claim that they have never made any attempt to find out how many died. If they did it would be powerful proof, one way or another regarding the Holocaust® Story. That is why they refuse; or rather why the Jews have manipulated them into suppressing the truth. The Holocaust® Racket is not just an extremely lucrative, tax free boondoggle, which has made them well over $62 billion. It is propaganda tool they use for murder, The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine, Genocide & War Mongers.

The tracing service is what makes Arolson interesting and important.

The International Tracing Service (ITS) in Bad Arolsen, Germany, is the internationally governed archive whose task it is to document the fate of millions of civilian victims of Nazi Germany. The documents in the ITS archives include original records from concentration camps, details of forced labour, and files on displaced persons. ITS preserves the original documents and clarifies the fate of those persecuted by the Nazis. Since November 2007, the archives are accessible for researchers.

ITS was founded in 1943 as an organization dedicated to finding missing persons, typically lost to family and friends as a result of war or political unrest during World War II. The service operates under the legal authority of the Bonn Agreement, is under the administrative umbrella of the International Committee of the Red Cross and is funded by the government of Germany.

In 1943, the international section of the British Red Cross was asked by the Headquarters of the Allied Forces to set up a registration and tracing service for missing persons. The organization was formalized under the Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Forces and named the Central Tracing Bureau on February 15, 1944. As the war unfolded, the bureau was moved from London to Versailles, then to Frankfurt am Main, and finally to Bad Arolsen, which was considered a central location among the areas of Allied occupation.

On July 1, 1947 the International Refugee Organization took over administration of the bureau, and on January 1, 1948 the name was changed to its current International Tracing Service. In April 1951, administrative responsibilities for the service were placed under the Allied High Commission for Germany. When the status of occupation of Germany was repealed in 1954, the service found its current home with the ICRC.

After some discussion, in 1990 the Federal Republic of Germany renewed its continuing commitment to funding the operations of the ITS. The documents in the ITS archives were opened to public access on November 28, 2007

They are obviously the best source of casualty states. They claim that they have never made any attempt to find how many died - see under. You might wonder why they kept the evidence under wraps for so long.

 

From http://just-another-inside-job.blogspot.com/2007/06/official-records-from-international-red.html

The Red Cross will tell you, if you care to ask them that they have never estimated the number of casualties. Their email on the point is below. They also claim that Raoul Hilberg is a reliable source on the subject. Read for yourself. Think for yourself. Decide for yourself.

Sir,

Following your request, we inform you that the ICRC never estimated the number of deaths at the Nazi concentration camps at 271,301. Such allegation was tendentiously elaborated by Holocaust deniers.

We suggest you to refer to the existing and reliable academic works, especially those of Raoul Hilberg.

If you wish more information, you may also contact the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and Yad Vashem.

Q1 : Dear Sir,
I came across what is said to be a a Red Cross statement at http://just-another-inside-job.blogspot.com/2007/06/official-records-from-international-red.html which tells us that the total concentration camp deaths were 271,301.

I was wondering whether it is authentic. Would you mind checking for me?
