No Mention of Gas Chambers In 1956 Encyclopaedia Britanica?

Posted: Wed Feb 01, 2006

I recently came across this in David Duke's book Jewish Supremacism (p.277):

Quote: (...) the first thing I did was pull out my much-thumbed volumes of the 1956 Encylopaedia Brittanica. It had only one reference to Nazi atrocities against the Jews. The extensive Second World War article made no mention of Nazi pogroms against the Jews. The edition also has no articles devoted to the "Holocaust". In an article titled "Jews," there was a short section on the Jews during the war. This article, written by Jacob Marcus, perhaps the preeminent Jewish historian in the world at that time, cited many Jewish writers and authorities as sources, including Encyclopedia Judaica, Judishe Lexicon, the Jewish Encyclopedia, and the Universal Jewish Encyclopedia. A pro-Jewish perspective dominated the article, and Marcus described Jewish conditions under the Nazis with these words:

"In order to effect a solution of the Jewish problem in line with their theories, the Nazis carried out a series of expulsions and deportations of Jews, mostly of original east European stock, from nearly all European states.

Men frequently separated from their wives, and others from children, were sent by the thousands to Poland and western Russia. There they were put into concentration camps, or huge reservations, or sent into the swamps, or out on the roads, into labour gangs. Large numbers perished under the inhuman conditions which they labored. While every other large Jewish center was being embroiled in war, American Jewry was gradually assuming a position of leadership in world Jewry." [found in the 1947, 52 and 56 editions]

Duke claims that this is the only description of what is known today as the "Holocaust" in the 1947, 1952 and 1956 editions of the respected encyclopedia and that nothing about gas chambers or the figure of 6 million dead Jews can be found in them. Quite remarkable if true.

Since I don't have the possibility to check up on this myself (I don't live in an English speaking country, so the only 1956 EB edition available in a public library is probably many hundred miles away from me) could someone please answer me whether what Duke claims is correct or not?

Wish we would have kept that set of moldy green, 1954 Funk & Wagnells now...

Hi Virus,

This Hoax predates WWI.. back to Roman times..lol

Yours in Observing Whoppers Repeated Become Common Knowledge,

P.H.

" Although it is largely forgotten today, in October 1919 (!) New York Governor Martin Glynn gave a speech in Albany, New York reporting on the "holocaust [of] six million Jewish men and women" who were dying due to the "awful tyranny of war and a bigoted lust for Jewish blood" during World War I. (!)

Glynn's speech, entitled "The Crucifixion of Jews Must Stop" was printed in the October 31, 1919 (!) issue of the "American Hebrew Magazine," published by the American Jewish Committee.

The truth is that six million Jews did not die during World War I -- and no serious historian believes today that they did. But during World War I the myth of "six million Jews" was very emotional and effective war-time propaganda indeed.

However, shortly after World War II, the thesis of "Six Million Jews" took on a new life.

Yet if you look back in history, Jewish lore is rife with multiple legends of mass Jewish slaughter. The story of "the Holocaust" [0f World War II] that you hear so much about today is a variation on a very old theme.

The Talmud - the very foundation of Jewish religious teaching - tells of four BILLION Jews killed by the Romans under Emperor Hadrian. The Talmud describes a tidal wave of blood that plunged down to the sea, carrying large boulders along with it, staining the sea a distance of four miles out -- the bodies of the martyred Jews used to build a fence around Hadrian's vineyard, with the blood saved over from the tidal wave used to fertilize the grapes of Hadrian's wrath and of the 64 million Jewish school children of the town of Bethar, wrapped in their religious scrolls and burned alive by the Romans.

[Note: the population of the Roman Empire at the time is estimated to have been between 55 and 60 million. The world's population is believed to have been less than 300 million.]

Do you really believe that the Roman's killed four billion Jews? If you don't, You must be a "Holocaust denier." ...
