Gold-filled teeth in the Merkers Mine

[Carto's Cutlass Supreme]

From:

April 12, 1945: Eisenhower, Patton, and Bradley descend into the Merkers mine to find stashed art treasures and either the entire German gold reserves or a huge part of it, but they also found gold-filled teeth?

What percentage and significance could gold-filled teeth be in comparison to a nation's gold reserves? .0001? It would be like going to Fort Knox, and in a room full of gold bricks, there also is this bag full of gold filled teeth.

It is probably one of the very first moves on the part of Psyche Warfare to get the holocaust hoax going. But whoops. The killing supposedly happened in the East. In Poland. And the American army is coming from the West. But in Psyche Warfare's initial version of the hoax (before they could be set straight) Buchenwald was a murder factory.

Later in the day, the three generals would go to Ohrdruf, which really started the holocaust myth from the Eisenhower/Psyche Warfare direction.

The gold-filled teeth surrounded by famous art works and gold bricks, is a Psyche Warfare propaganda screw-up. When extracted gold-filled teeth were later mentioned in the Buchenwald movie as they showed a crematory oven, it at least made a little more sense than gold-filled teeth stored in the same place as famous European works of art and gold bricks! Psyche Warfare was trying to get it right.

It seems like extracted gold filled teeth have that propaganda shock value to it that shrunken heads do, or tattooed skin. But putting it among art treasures and gold seems really ridiculous.

Gold Filled Teeth?
Now I've heard of Gold Teeth used as replacements for missing teeth, but a Gold Filled Tooth!? well that just seems ridiculous!

[Carto's Cutlass Supreme]

In those days, gold was what they used for fillings.

[MrNobody]

Oh, I see, so the claim is that they took the entire tooth & kept it in that state rather than crushing the tooth & smelting it for the gold.
Nice of the Germans to be so thoughtful as to leave that sort of evidence lying around.

[Carto's Cutlass Supreme]

Exactly. Dig up 1.5 million bodies and cremate them, in order to get rid of the evidence at Treblinka, Sobibor, and Belzec, and then sandwiched between your nation's gold reserves and your nation's finest paintings, have a little suitcase full of gold-filled teeth.

It's Patton that spread the story of the tooth fillings:

"All the articles," he noted, "had been flattened by hammer blows, obviously to save storage space, and then merely thrown into the receptacle, apparently pending an opportunity to melt them down into gold or silver bars." Later Patton would write that he saw "a number of suitcases filled with jewelry, such as silver and gold cigarette cases, wrist-watch cases, spoons, forks, vases, gold-filled teeth, false teeth, etc." acquired by "bandit methods."

and Bernard Bernstein:

All that treasure was very securely guarded. The more than 200 battered valises and bags filled with the valuables taken from the concentration camp victims were kept in a separate vault of the Reichsbank which had strong wirework so that anyone from the outside of the vault could see anyone who was on the inside of the vault. No one was allowed on the inside other than myself, and I could go into the vault only when other officers and American civilian visitors were present and were watching me.

When American officials and other prominent American visitors came to the Frankfort Reichsbank, I took them on a tour and told them some of the stories of the treasures. I would go into this caged area alone and open up some of the valises to show the eyeglass frames, wedding rings and the melted down pieces of gold from the gold fillings and so on. Nothing was ever taken from the treasures while it was under my control.

Keeping gold fillings and gold rings in original state? Not believable, since they would have been molten down immediately to get the gold content.
Tooth filling pictures are never shown. Quite popular is the gold rings photo:

Two stories though. One is found in Buchenwald, the other is found in Merkers mine Heilbronn:

My suspicion: Wedding rings taken from German soldiers and collected.

What is the Origin of the "Gold Teeth" Allegation?

Source: Hans Fritzsche's Nuremberg memoirs The Sword in the Scales

From the Nuremberg Trial memoirs of Reich press chief, Hans Fritzsche

" He [Thomas Dodd] dropped every sign of harshness from his manner and seemed to become almost genial as he entered into discussion with the defendant about his former collaborators, particularly a certain Puhl who had been a senior director of the Reichsbank. Funk, impressionable and gullible, visibly revived under this treatment; he seemed almost happy in the informal atmosphere of this examination. Puhl? Why, yes, of course: a very sound man. The witness agreed that he had always set great store by old Puhl. A thoroughly trustworthy fellow.

Dodd now dropped the pleasant subject of Puhl and steered the conversation to the subject of the gold reserves of the Reichsbank, the stocks of bullion immediately available at different times and the various fluctuations of the reserve funds. At the end of this thoroughly technical and friendly conversation the prosecutor asked quite casually if the Reichsbank had had any special relations with the S.S.

[...]

Puhl was held in the Nuremberg prison for about a year at the end of which he appeared in the dock at the 'Wilhelmstrasse' trial. However, the Allies were not very lucky with this man, who, though he looked not unlike Funk, had a great deal more calm tenacity.

At the Wilhelmstrasse trial Puhl got an official of the Frankfurt branch of the Reichsbank to testify on his behalf. The witness declared under oath that at the time of the city's occupation by American troops the strong-room and all the safes of the bank had been completely empty; and were so when he had handed them over to the Occupation Authorities.

The witness was then questioned about the film, which, according to Mr. Dodd's statement had been made immediately after the occupation of Frankfurt. To this he answered that he knew all about it because he had been personally present during its production. A few days after the occupation some U.S. lorries had pulled up at the door of the branch and the manager requested to hand over Reichsbank bags which were then filled with gold teeth, jewellery, etc. taken from the lorries and put in the empty safes. After these safes had been filled cameramen appeared and made a film of their contents. "

And now read the attempt to straighten that backwards:

http://books.google.co.za/books?id=8CwA ... 22&f=false

Writing in 1954, Miss West still affirms that “the world was under a necessity to find some way of punishing the Nazi leaders,” but she feels that the main value of the trial was the “service rendered to history” in the verification of the largely documentary case offered by the prosecution. “Though the printed record of the truth is hidden from the general reader, its existence preserves him from much mischievous special pleading.” Her report serves, indeed, to demonstrate the value of the record, for provoked as she was to write by Fritzsche’s book, she turns to the record of the trial to refute his deliberate insinuation that a film showing bags of gold teeth and jewelry snatched from victims of the crematories and deposited in the Reichsbank had been faked by the Allies. The truth was that it never had been claimed that the bags were found in the Reichsbank vaults. They were photographed there after their return to those vaults from the salt mines where they had been hidden by the Frankfurt Reichsbank office.

- Yes, it was claimed they were found in the Reichsbank vaults, otherwise why stage and photograph the contrived scene?
- Why did US soldiers, after finding no gold teeth etc. demand bags with the bank's name on it and then return with those same bags filled with gold & gold teeth, jewels and other valuables, demand they be placed in the vault, and then take pictures of the faked scene?
- And since it's alleged to have been criminal evidence, it would have been locked away in a secure Allied military facility, not a German bank ... if it was fact.

Once again: http://www.fpp.co.uk/History/General/Nbg/Goldteeth.html

Reichswirtschaftsminister Funk did not know anything about any Jewish gold when he was asked by the judge in Nürnberg, he was surprised after having seen a film with golden teeth.

Mr. Puhl, a director of The German Reichsbank, explained how US-soldiers came to the empty bank building in Frankfurt and ordered for him to give them bags with the Reichsbank's name on, and how they the next day came with the same bags full with gold and golden teeth, jewels and other valuables and demanded this to be lock into the strongroom. The strongroom was locked, cameras were set up, the strongroom opened
and the bags fetched out and filmed.

Note the timing of this propaganda, just as the Zionist genocidal mass slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza was waking many people up to the lies and dangers of racist Israel / Zionism. Whenever damage control, spin, and promotion of Jewish supremacists interest is required we read nonsense like the Commentary Magazine piece.
And what is Commentary Magazine? A typical left wing mouthpiece for promoting Jewish supremacist interests, founded by the American Jewish Committee in 1945.

The 'holocaust' storyline is one of the most easily debunked narratives ever contrived. That is why those who question it are arrested and persecuted. That is why violent, racist, & privileged Jewish supremacists demand censorship. Truth needs no protection from scrutiny.
The tide is turning.

[Hektor]

It's even worse, Hannover.
Now they must prove:
1. That the stuff in the Merker mine was indeed from the Reichsbank.
2. That the stuff brought was indeed coming from the Merker mine.
3. That it is indeed what they claim.

Their story is no more then a red herring and rather suspicious. They should rather answer to the charge that Americans were looting in Germany for all kinds of booty.

[borjastick]

So if I understand this correctly the claim that all the gold rings and jewellery taken from those in the camps, was likely to be a load of old bunkum, lies and and invention of the victorious in the post war clamor to blame everything on Germany. More particularly this specific haul of rings was a PR exercise.

This all makes perfect sense to me.

I never really believed the tale of all gold teeth being removed from the dead jews in the gas chambers, mainly due to the practicality of it all but also because I would guess the peasants of europe at that time had little spare money to be able to afford gold teeth. Pulling bad teeth was far more usual.

So the gold gatherers of the SS and then the allied troops were all just apprentices for the media careers that beckoned them in the new world in the 1950s post war era. The claims of gold gathering were no more real than were the human skin lampshades and shrunken heads.

And certainly no more real than the model of Auschwitz said to have been made of the gold removed from dead victims of the gas chambers.

[Hektor]

Any reports from taking gold teeth from deceased in crematoriums agree that they were molten down pretty immediately. That shows the claim of Allies finding pillaged "gold teeth from concentration victims" is certainly false.

There is Nuremberg Trial dialog about this. Similar to Dodd presenting a Psyche Warfare shrunken head, is Dodd tainting the Nuremberg Trial with more planted evidence? Did Dodd know it was Psyche warfare plants? Did Dodd know and go with it, or did Dodd not know and really thought this was discovered evidence. Funk makes a puissant point: that the Reichsbank wasn't in the business of melting down gold. Banks take money deposits. Similarly eyeglass frames: you don't deposit those in a bank. That's typical dumb thinking on the part of Psyche Warfare:

MR.DODD: Well, that is an interesting answer. I asked you yesterday, and I ask you again now, did you ever hear of anybody depositing his gold dentures in a bank for safekeeping? [There was no response.7

You saw that film, and you saw the gold bridgework, or mouthplates, did you not, and the other dental work? Certainly nobody ever deposited that with a bank. Is that not a fact?

FUNK: As far as the teeth are concerned, this is a special case. Where these teeth came from I do not know. It was not reported to me, nor do I know what was done with those teeth. I am convinced that items of this sort, when they were delivered to the Reichsbank, had to be turned over to the Office for Precious Metals, for the

Reichsbank was not a place where gold was worked. Neither do I know whether the Reichsbank even had the technical facilities to work this metal. I do not know about that.

MR. DODD: And not only did people not deposit gold teeth, but they never deposited eyeglass rims, did they, such as you saw in the picture?

FUNK: That is right. These things are, of course, no regular deposits. That goes without saying.

MR. DODD: And you saw there were some objects that obviously were in the process of being melted down. Practically the last scene in that film showed something that looked as if it had been in the process of being melted, did it not? You saw it?

Well, will you answer me, please, "yes" or "no"? Did you see it?

FUNK: I cannot say that exactly. I do not know whether they were melting it down. I have no knowledge of these technical matters. To be sure, now I see quite clearly what was not known to me until now, that the Reichsbank did the technical work of melting down gold articles.

Also, there were more than just rings shown, as can be seen in their discussing the footage.

I'm concluding from reading his letters and listening to his son assuming similarity in personality structure: My best guess would be that he was stupid enough to possibly have believed those stories and the "evidence". The Dodds are the kind of people that will do good academically at school and college, but when it comes to think out of the box or spotting a deception, they simply fail, because they don't question "the facts".
