No it isn't.
Thomas Dalton:
I would further add that, on the revisionist thesis, many thousands of people did indeed die in the camp, of various causes. A high-volume transit camp would have received thousands of incoming dead (recall the “one third” statistic above), and many more would have died of disease and, yes, execution (likely by bullet) at the camp. So it is fully expected that mass graves exist in the camp. But the anticipated number of victims is much smaller—perhaps 10% of those claimed.
borjastick:
Never does he [Dalton] resort to anger or bigotry in his comment but only ever uses calm, evidence based logic and thought to arrive at his conclusions. He never denies that jews were relocated at great human cost. He accepts readily that jews died en route to and at some of the camps, to do otherwise is in my opinion avoiding the facts.
As for the death camps he uses time charts and death rates as well and physical capabilities of the camps, and just for good measure he quotes witnesses too... I do have an open mind to the suffering of jews and others in such transports. I cannot accept that no Jews died in such transports and to do so is the act of an Ostrich.
It is a ridiculous notion to claim that no jews died in transports that were at the very least 'rough' .
