“Spielberg’s movie made its premise (that the entire German military consisted of homicidal robots). The following vital, exculpatory information has been censored in order to maintain his depiction of the German military in the worst possible light.”
“Amon Göth was an Austrian SS . He served as the commandant of the Kraków-Płaszów concentration camp in Płaszów in German-occupied Poland for most of the camp’s existence during World War II.”
Did he shøøt prisoners from his balcony?
“The most important testimony in Amon Goeth’s trial came from one of his former maids, Helena Horowitz. The only witness.”
“She claims that he shot from a red house in her testimony, however tourists are taken to see the WHITE HOUSE on Jerozolimska street where Amon Goeth lived, it was at least a 10 minute drive from the location of the former camp.”
“In the book, the author says that Goeth stepped out of the front door of a “temporary residence” and shot prisoners at random. Later when he moved into a three-story white house on Jerozolimska Street, Goeth shot prisoners from the balcony, according to the novel. In the movie, Schindler’s List, Goeth is shown standing on the balcony in the rear of his house, shøøting prisoners, who were not working fast enough, with a high-powered rifle.”
“On 13 September 1944, Göth was relieved of his position and charged by the German SS with theft of Jèwish property, failure to provide adequate food to the prisoners under his charge, violation of concentration camp regulations regarding the treatment and punishment of prisoners, and allowing unauthorised access to camp personnel records by prisoners and non-commissioned officers.”
“David Crowe wrote that Amon Goeth had been arrested after a 6-month investigation of Goeth’s tenure as Plaszow’s Commandant. The man who investigated Goeth was Dr. Georg Konrad Morgen, a Waffen-SS officer and attorney whom Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler had put in charge of investigating murder, corruption and mistreatment of prisoners in all the German concentration camps in 1943.”
“Göth was scheduled for an appearance before SS Judge Georg Konrad Morgen, (pictured). SS doctors diagnosed Göth with a mental illness, and he was committed to a mental institution in Bad Tölz in Bavaria, where he was arrested by the United States military in May 1945.”
“SS Judge Georg Konrad Morgen was an SS judge and lawyer who investigated crimes committed in German concentration camps. He rose to the rank of SS-Sturmbannführer (major).”
“Morgen was known as a Blutrichter, or ‘blood judge’, as a result of being one of the members of the judiciary authorised to issue the death penalty.”
The first German soldier to be EXECUTED on Morgen’s orders was Georg von Sauberzweig in 1941, for having resold some supplies reserved for the troops on the black market.[6]
In post-war testimony, Morgen claimed the stories of Frau Koch’s fetish with lampshades made of human skin were merely a legend: he had personally searched Koch’s home near Buchenwald and found nothing of the kind. He later told the American journalist John Toland that he persisted in denying the story while being threatened with beatings and while actually being beaten twice by his Allied interrogators after the war.
In addition to prosecuting concentration-camp officers, Morgen sought an arrest warrant for Adolf Eichmann, on charges of having taken possession of precious stones seized from prisoners, as Eichmann himself confirmed at his trial in Jerusalem, but Morgen’s request was rejected.
“The fact that the SS, under orders from Heinrich Himmler, attempted to operate the concentration camps (KZ) in a humane manner, in part by prosecuting, jailing and even executing brutal German concentration camp personnel, has been nearly completely suppressed in much of the discussion of the history of World War Two.”
“Millions of people are ignorant of these facts and Spielberg has increased the bigotry and hate in the world by producing a cinematic fantasy. Schindler’s List which demonizes the entire German military, some of whose leaders were, in truth, as horrified and angered by brutality against inmates as any other decent human being would be, and took direct action to stop it.”
The charges brought against Amon Goeth by the Polish government did not include the charge that he had shot prisoners from his balcony. Nor did the charges brought against him by Dr. Morgen
“Since no order or proof to inflict any crime against inmates has been produced, is it fair to say that these were rare occurrences of soldiers who acted on their own?”
September 13 1946 He was hanged successfully on the 3rd try.
More than a hundred German military cases were brought to a verdict by the Germans.
Maximum punishments were imposed on members of all ranks. Arrested were the commandants of Buchenwald, Lublin, Warschau, Herzogenbosch, KRAKAU-PLASZOW.
The commandants of Buchenwald and Lublin were shot.
Goeth is said to be responsible for 30 to 100 to 10,000 deaths…
