Here is a televised interview from yesterday with a comic book artist named Art Spiegelman talking about a Tennessee school district’s recent vote to ban his Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel “Maus” from its eighth grade language arts curriculum.
During it, a recording from 1972 is played of his father repeating nonsense about Auschwitz gas chambers where poisonous gas came through shower heads.
He claimed that he was only relating what he himself had seen!.
But how could he have ’seen’ gas coming out of shower heads? Plus, he would be dead if he had really been a witness to that.
It is obvious nonsense, from a Jewish ’survivor’ who is just repeating rumours — and who is lying by specifically claiming he is not doing that.
Plus how was gas supposed to come through the pipes and out of the shower-heads from Zyklon B pellets?
This is old nonsense in 1972, from before all this was debunked by the revisionists of the 1980s.
Yet amazingly the interviewer Amy Goodman, her TV show producer, and everybody else involved in putting out this main-stream-media NEWS show STILL accepts this nonsense!
And this happened YESTERDAY, on main-stream TV!!!
And that folks, is how to keep spreading a hoax.

AMY GOODMAN: This is an excerpt of an interview you did with your father in 1972 about his life during the Holocaust.
iVLADEK SPIEGELMAN: But after three days, they took us out from prison.
ART SPIEGELMAN: Everybody.
VLADEK SPIEGELMAN: Everybody who had to go to Auschwitz. And outside was standing a closed bus, without windows, with a roof and a very small — two tiny small windows. In the truck, we were all together — I, mother and women, men, everybody together.
ART SPIEGELMAN: And you were sure what?
VLADEK SPIEGELMAN: We were sure that we are going to be finished. We knew that we are going to Auschwitz.
ART SPIEGELMAN: Oh. And you knew that Auschwitz was a death camp?
VLADEK SPIEGELMAN: Yes, but we knew that we will go there and will not come out anymore. This we knew, that they will gas us and burn us in the oven.
ART SPIEGELMAN: Did you know about the showers?
VLADEK SPIEGELMAN: Yes, sure.
ART SPIEGELMAN: Did you? Everybody knew about that?
VLADEK SPIEGELMAN: We knew everything. Late — it was very late in the season. The war started in 1939, and this was 1943 already. And we knew everything what was going on. ’Til ’43, I was in ghettos in hiding. From ’43, when they finished everything, then I came to Auschwitz.

ART SPIEGELMAN: Hadn’t they heard about the showers before?
VLADEK SPIEGELMAN: They had, but this I have seen when I came over there, how it worked. I had heard much about it, but now I am seeing everything. I am telling you only this, what I have seen, what I went through; not this what people were talking, rumours and other things.
From there it was a little corridor. You went into a shower room. It was a big, big shower room, full of showers, maybe 100, maybe 150, maybe 90 showers there. From the ceiling down, it looked like the showers that are coming out water.
And the door was hermetic closed. It was a very heavy door, and it was covered with some insulation. But when the people went in there, they closed the door, and the door had also a little window in the middle to look in there to the shower room.
So people went in there with the soap and the towel, and they waited for water that will come up from the showers. But instead of the water came gas, poison gas. It poisoned them from half an ’til three-quarters. And the German, they looked in there through the window until everybody is dead.
