Gas Vans at Auschwitz

[Callahan]

I have recently stumbled upon a fair bit of testimony about 'gas vans' at Auschwitz. Here are a handful of examples:

There are others in the USC Shoah Foundation VHA archive as well. Is there even a case being made by establishment historians that these actually took place? Is there evidence that vans or large capacity vehicles capable of the alleged modifications were even present at Auschwitz??

This is a good find.

So Kazimierz Grabowski says it was "constantly in use" unless it was damaged. But then when asked if the van was used inside or outside of the camp, he didn't know

George Goiny-Grabowski:
"The gas vans had an image showing a human head which kept its nose closed with one hand."

Maybe it was one of the mobile delousing vans? Can you even believe anyone would label a homicidal gas chamber with that on it?

The testimonies are all contradictory and make no sense. What probably happened was, after the war, hundreds of former prisoners were angry at being interned, possibly someone in their family died and they wanted revenge. Maybe they just wanted their 15 minutes of fame. So they jumped at the opportunity to give their "testimony" about gas vans or whatever.
Since it's all fake, none of it is consistent. I never heard any exterminationists claiming Jews were gassed in gas vans at Auschwitz. Probably this stuff was quietly swept under the rug, they just cherry pick the small handful of "gas chamber" testimonies that talk about the pellets being poured down the roof and ignore the ones that describe completely different methods.

My feelings exactly. As if the Auschwitz story wasn't ridiculous enough... they had to throw gas-mobiles into the mix. This whole thing sounds more and more like an inverse Disneyland. "Come see all the attractions your imagination can bring to life... attractions of DEATH".
