The Dresden Pyres

Yep, it's claimed that some bodies were cremated at Dresden. Nessie can't know if even the minuscule space underneath the pile of bodies is filled with wood but goes on to claim that the pile of bodies photographed at Dresden were the cadavers that were cremated. Nessie doesn't even differentiate between a pyre and a pile of bodies. Nessie has lost contact with reality.

Another document about the cremations;

"Thousands of corpses still had to be retrieved and buried. A task that the available forces were not up to: thus, after Gauleiter and city administration had agreed, corpses were collected on the sealed-off Altmarkt, registered and finally burned. This happened »in consideration of the quickly progressing decomposition and the existing extraordinary difficulties in retrieving [the corpses] as well as the lack of suitable vehicles for transportation to cemeteries«, was stated in the Order Police's final report. For two weeks the old market place in the city center became a crematorium. On 5 March the corpses collected in the streets had been retrieved, the pyres gone out. »By my estimate, 8 - 10 cubic meters of ash lay on the Altmarkt«, was reported to the city administration the day before. »The Brigadeführer wished that this ash be loaded into recipients (boxes or sacks) and transported to the Heidefriedhof, where it is to be sunk into the earth at the place marked in lead on the map. It is not necessary to leave the boxes or sacks in the soil. You shall thus pour the ash from the transport recipients into the soil, so that the recipients can be reused several times. Transport should start on Tuesday."

The photographer was Walter Hahn

"In 1920 Hahn became self-employed as a photographer and turned to landscape photography (Saxon Switzerland, Eastern Ore Mountains, Lusatian Mountains, Alps); Around 1930, architectural photography was another focus. He is famous for his aerial photos of Dresden, almost all Saxon cities and Saxon Switzerland.
His postcards, which were always sold as hand prints, are sought-after collector's items. The photographer will always be associated with the city through his photos of the destroyed Dresden and not least through the documentation of the corpses cremation on the Altmarkt in 1945."

There was a poster called Werd, who thought it was OK to make multiple false accusations about what I had supposedly said. I started to pin him down on his multiple false accusations. Link to and quote me stating that there are "photos of cremated bodies at Dresden" or apologise for yet another strawman claim.

Every time you use a strawman fallacy, it will be pointed out to you, so you know just how much you are unable to argue against what I have actually said. Maybe then, you will understand just how bad your arguments are.

You were yet again caught making dishonest claims about what I said.

Only in your head is the evidence of the photos and the documents not connected. Only in your head did the Nazis pile bodies on grates made of rails and then separately cremate bodies by another means in the Altmarkt.



The link does not say there are photos of the cremated bodies. It refers to cremations, and the photos show the start of the process. You clearly have a problem with your reading and comprehension.

How did the Nazis cremate thousands of bodies at the Altmarkt?

Since the bodies on the beams were in the Altmarkt, you have no evidence to say that the ashes reported were not what was left after those piles of bodies had been cremated.



Where is your evidence that the Germans cremated the corpses by simply pouring petrol over them and setting them alight?



You are yet again misrepresenting what I said. I have agreed with you there are no photos, other than the pyres before they were set alight and after they were set alight, as they were smoking or it may be steam rising as the bodies dry out.










It is not unreasonable to call a photo of a pile of bodies on fire, a photo of a cremation. Now show me your evidence that the bodies piled up in the photos, are not the bodies that were cremated.

It is not believable that the Nazis piled bodies on grates to just leave them to decompose, and then cremated bodies lying around the Altmarkt by pouring petrol over them. It is also not evidenced.

Just because you do not think a pyre set by piling bodies on a grate over wood is possible, does not therefore mean it is impossible. The cremations referred to by the documents and witness are obviously the bodies piled on the grates. The two photos above show the piles of ashes those cremations produced.
