this is a report from Richard Korherr to Heinrich Himmler
note especially the number of Jews "passed through the camps in the General Government"
this is a euphemism
it was originally "Sonderbehandlung," special treatment, which was used as a euphemism for mass murder
@agag I'm not seeing anything on 6 million Jews being explicitly killed.
Am I missing something?
this is a document from 1943, you shouldn't expect that
and it only discusses up to the end of 1942
So what are you trying to convey in the broad scope of things?
well for one thing the 1929 estimate from Linfield is quite a bit lower than the German's own estimate
Mine is consistent with other estimates.
Again, if the loss of life shown between the two dates doesn't even exceed 6 million, how can you say 6 milion were explictly killed by Germany?
6 million is a maximum, most estimates fall somwhere between 5-6 million, so I don't say that
Hilberg gives 5.1 million
and this document doesn't include all the deaths in the east
and none of the ones in European Russia
so already by the end of 1942 the Nazis have "processed" 1,419,467 Jews through the camps in the General Government and Warthegau
according to their own estimates
note that the Wannsee Conference was only in January 1942
I still don't see how 6 million Jews were killed when the totals before and after do not add up. *Shrugs*
the death tolls are all estimates, and depending on which pre-war and post-war estimates you get you'll get a different number
usually between 5-6 million
if you use the ones on this website you get a european jewish population decline of 5.7 million
between 1939 and 1945
Korherr talks about Jewish emigration in this report
before 1941 when it was forbidden
well he talks about it until 1943 but says that it "ceased almost completely" in 1941 when it was prohibited
Those numbers are based off a Jew's estimates, not census reports.
and they're lower still than the German's own estimates
I'm trying to find the sources now
I showed other estimate reports. I don't see how you're refuting them kek.
that estimate is quite a bit lower than others
and also for an earlier year than others
So you're telling me a historically low birthrate group magically shat out millions of babies in the 4 year difference? @agag
Linfield's estimate of 15.0 million Jews worldwide is much lower than other estimates because of how much earlier it is
1939 estimate from the American Jewish Yearbook is 16.1 million
jewish virtual library gives 16.7 million
"On the basis of the latest available authoritative sources, the total number of Jews in the world is here estimated at 16,180,000"
