I apologize if my wording was unclear earlier. I want to clarify that I did not mean to suggest that Paul Rassinier, or any other Holocaust survivor, had intentionally lied or deliberately falsified their testimony. Survivors of the Holocaust undoubtedly suffered immense trauma and loss, and their accounts of their experiences should be treated with sensitivity and respect.
It's important to understand that the memory of trauma survivors can be affected by the emotional and psychological impact of their experiences, and memories can be challenging to accurately recall, especially over time. As a result, inconsistencies or inaccuracies in survivor testimony may occur unintentionally and are not reflective of deliberate falsehood or deception.
That said, serious accusations of fabrication or manipulation of testimony requires clear and substantial evidence, as it can be dangerous and harmful to discredit Holocaust survivors' stories or diminish their experiences. We must approach any allegations with great care and respect, and focus on preserving the collective memory of the Holocaust and respecting the dignity of the survivors.
