No what I said was this, in regards to Kovno which was the best (or one the best) examples he found of non-Jews being maintained in German occupied USSR :
It's a great post, one of my best here, so I'm happy to bring it up.
I think Rapechu was smart and unbiased enough to see how inadequate his best example was and that's why he left the forum.
This is Mattogno's conclusion from the Einsatzgruppen study broken down into easy digestible chunks;
The Einsatzgruppen in the occupied eastern territories performed many intelligence and administrative missions.
The first concerned all the vital spheres of the occupied territories, namely the political, economic, social, cultural, religious and commercial sphere, among others, including the collection of important Soviet documents. The administrative tasks consisted on the one hand in the restoration of the administrative, social and economic structure in the regions devastated by the retreating Soviets or by the fighting, on the other in the search, identification and control of all those who were considered ideological or political enemies of Germany or who carried out acts hostile to the German troops or to the populations of the occupied countries, first and foremost the partisans.
Most Jews tragically fell into this category. The Einsatzgruppen never received an order to exterminate the Jews as such, and the executions of Jews they perpetrated did not have a racial character; Jewry was rather considered the fertile breeding ground of Bolshevism, which was the primary enemy of the National Socialist regime, and as such the Jews were ruthlessly combatted in pursuance of that view.
Regarding the number of victims, over 40% of the approximately 728,000
killings listed in the Einsatzgruppen reports are not verifiable, and there is a serious possibility that many figures listed in these documents were exaggerated or even invented, as inflated numbers allowed the various commanders to receive kudos from Berlin as the destroyers of Bolshevism’s breeding ground, hence as heroes who had thus inflicted a severe blow on the enemy regime.
After a thorough analysis, we find that the hypothesis of the deployment of
“gas vans” in the occupied eastern territories is an unfounded and nonsensical fable, which further undermines the already-shaky foundations of the orthodox Holocaust narrative.
Regarding the alleged activity to exhume and cremate the execution victims,
the following points can be established with certainty:
1) Orthodox Holocaust historiography has never proven that the authorities of
the Reich planned and carried out a general plan on an institutional level to eliminate the bodies of the victims of the Einsatzgruppen and other associated units by means of a systematic operation of exhumation and cremation of bodies.
The cutting edge of such historiography, Shmuel Spektor and Jens Hoffmann, have limited themselves to presenting, without the slightest critical sense, a mass of absurd and contradictory testimonies, very often issued many years after the alleged events. For these historians, no absurdity is absurd enough and no contradiction is
so contradictory as to require changing their opinions. This attitude of supine acquiescence and compliance renders them worthy disciples of Soviet propaganda.
2) Soviet propaganda proclaimed the discovery of innumerable mass graves and hundreds of thousands of bodies, but those which are documented, and may be considered real, are only a tiny fraction of these claims.
3) The same is true for the innumerable photographs of executions, mass
graves and bodies, which document events of an order of magnitude relatively insignificant compared to what is asserted.
4) There is such an immense disproportion between the execution figures proclaimed in the various German reports and the corpses actually found that one can reasonably consider the proclaimed death toll to be greatly exaggerated.
5) There is no doubt that the Germans carried out individual cremation operations, but these left more than obvious traces on the one hand, and they resulted from local initiatives on the other hand. It is permissible to doubt how much sense it would make, for the Einsatzgruppen and associated units, to exaggerate the number of executions, particularly with regard to the Jews. The principal motivation is probably the fact that the Jews were considered by the National Socialists to be the creators and sustainers of Judeo-Bolshevism and, by virtue of this conception, they represented the quintessence of Bolshevism, the enemy by antonomasia; consequently, so National Socialists thought, the more the Jewish element was destroyed, the more this would undermine the foundation of Bolshevism. Military considerations were intermixed here with ideological, political and career considerations. As is shown in Chapter 1 of Part One, the compilation of the final reports
handed down to us is comparable to a river made up of many small rivulets: various Teilkommandos sent reports to their superior units, who summarized them and transmitted them to the central command – from the Teikommandos to the Einsatzkommandos or Sonderkommandos right up to the respective Einsatzgruppe – which sent them to Department IV A 1 of the RSHA, which reprocessed them. It was a chain in which every link could have an interest in exaggerating the figures to show its own efficiency, and this is even more true for the Gestapo.
At the Einsatzgruppen Trial, a few former heads of these units spoke openly of such exaggerations in the Gestapo’s final reports, but one cannot exclude the possibility that they had already received exaggerated or even invented figures from subordinate units.
To this date , there exists no finer study of the EG than this.
