The Luftl Report an Austrian Engineer's Report on the "Gas Chambers" of Auschwitz and Mauthausen Concentration Camps, By Walter Luftl

THE LUFTL REPORT, AN AUSTRIAN ENGINEER'S REPORT ON THE "GAS CHAMBERS" OF AUSCHWITZ AND MAUTHAUSEN, BY WALTER LUFTL. TEARS APART THE "GAS CHAMBER" MYTHS OF THE SO-CALLED, "HOLOCAUST". RARE SOFTCOVER BOOKLET, 29 PAGES. ABOUT THE REPORT AND THE AUTHOR: In March 1992, a prominent Austrian engineer made headlines when a report he had written about alleged German wartime gas chambers was made public. Walter Lüftl concluded in his controversial report, "Holocaust: Belief and Facts," that the well-known stories of mass extermination of Jews in gas chambers at the wartime camps of Auschwitz and Mauthausen are impossible for technical reasons and because they are incompatible with observable laws of nature. Lüftl further characterized the often-repeated stories of Jews being gassed with diesel engine exhaust (at Treblinka, for example) as a sheer impossibility. Lüftl, 59, is a court-recognized expert engineer and heads a large engineering firm in Vienna. On the basis of a well-established reputation as a particularly precise and exact specialist, he was chosen to serve as president of the Austrian Engineers Chamber (Bundes-Ingenieurkammer), a professional association of 4,000 members. In spite of his reputation, he was obliged to resign as president of the engineers' association in the uproar that followed news reports about his iconoclastic report. A leading official of the governing People's Party expressed fear that Lüftl's report could harm Austria's image abroad. Lüftl's report is further authoritative confirmation of the findings of American gas chamber expert Fred Leuchter, who testified about his on-site investigation of the supposed "gas chambers" of Auschwitz, Birkenau and Majdanek in the 1988 trial of German-Canadian publicist Ernst Zündel. Lüftl's report also corroborates Leuchter's findings from his 1989 investigation of the supposed extermination "gas chamber" at the Mauthausen camp.
