Gratitude for Free Download of NUREMBERG

I AM grateful that you put your Nuremberg book on the web for download, which I did a few days ago.

Unfortunately it may be a while before I will find the time to read the whole thing. However I did read Chapter 5, "The Origin of 'Six Million'".

When Robinson gave the 6 million figure he was repeating a number which had been used rather regularly in Jewish propaganda in New York in late 1942 and early 1943. The claim then was 2 million killed, 4 million to go. See the discussion on pp. 80f of my Hoax book, if you have a copy, and the New York Times stories quoted on the immediately preceding pages.
