I have researched Krege's alleged visit to Treblinka. According to the staff no permission was ever granted for his study and it is very hard to believe that a 'team' of people could do research on a six hectare site over three weeks taking samples from up to six metres in depth without being spotted by anyone. I cannot find his report anywhere although allegedly it has been published. However I have been informed that he saw no soil disturbances despite the presence of a cemetary, railway siding and quarry. He could offer proof that he used ground breaking radar by showing receipts or similar proof of acquisition but in eight years he has failed to do this. I can therefore conclude that he was not at Treblinka although I stand to be corrected. I have published films on Treblinka on you tube.

meaning his findinga were found incorrect by other historians. One heck of a statement - do historians always treat evidence this way. Some historians must feel obligated to follow up on this, don't they. How much would it cost to have Nitzor, ADL, JDL, etc one or all to rent a GPR and go check it out. Invite the deniers so you could rub the evidence in their ffaces, bring the news media along. No, why not?

Circling through the web it appears that Krege et al did their study a year after the Gora et al study was done. Did Kola and Gora have a rebuttal? Link? This has been almost 10 years for Gora etal to redo, etc their work.

Who wrote this drivel??? Darkmind1970 16:38, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

User:159.105.80.219 has been wandering about on various talk pages writing this kind of drivel for a few days. He hasn't been editing article pages, only talk pages. Ignore him and he'll go away. Squiddy | (squirt ink?) 16:50, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Is it worth pointing out on the main page that Krege is an electrical engineer who has never published his findings and whose so-called evidence is nebulous at best and actually disproves his own claims at worst? Darkmind1970 16:54, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

If you can find reliable sources for those statements, yes. No-one seems to have commented on him or his work, and it hasn't been published in any scholarly journal as far as I have been able to find out, nor has anyone but denier websites made anything of it. This makes it hard to make a sourced contribution to the article. Squiddy | (squirt ink?) 17:07, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

I believe Krege's report has been published several places - some places you might even approve of - for research purposes only. I have seen enough comment on some details of his work that I know several proholocaust wikians have actually read his report, probably secretly. ( Even seen the actual GPR output I believe - not enough to understand what it says but - hey I remember seeing a picture of his output on wiki - trying to fool me again.) By the way where did you guys/guy find that picture if it wasn't published? All scholars from "scholarly" journals also seem to have a pretty good idea of his work - how if they haven't seen it, questions follow questions?) Nebulous GPR output - maybe it is more accurately called nebulous subsoil, at worst we may have discovered a magnetic anomaly in Poland - we get right back to the shovel method ( of course besides the shovel it would take courage of conviction - the reviosionists are game I think, anyone else? )159.105.80.141 14:33, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

CanberraTimes and The Examiner 9 2 Australian newspapers) and a German publication published his work ( story on it ) in 2000. He actually went to Poland in 1999 and 2000 - once with Mattogno and Graf. On one trip he confirmed, with his radar, the 1942 Auschwitz spotted fever epidemic - discovered the mass grave for 20,000 victims ( not a word of praise from anyone - anyway the radar worked ).The Russians were only able to find 10 bodies when they arrived - must not have looked very hard or were too busy. Castle Hii Publishing was going to publish a book on Krege, don't know if it happened or not. Krege et al concluded that Treblinka was a transit camp - same as the Jewsih historians Tatiana Berenstein and Adam Rutkowski ( PhDs,published, peer - reviewed, all that good stuff).159.105.80.141 19:11, 10 May 2007 (UTC)On second look Berenstein et al mentioned Treblinka being used as a transit camp but much of their research appears inconclusive ( numbers, eyewitness reliance, etc - wouldn't use them with much confidence even if they do support transit site, etc ).159.105.80.141 14:06, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
