Very good, FineWine, she was not. She died from typhus like most inmates who died in the camps.
But how many people know that?
So why is it that of all persons they choose her as the icon of the holocaust, where she was killed as a consequence of the war effort of the Allies. A good laywer could defend the case that she was (indirectly and unintentionally) killed by the Allies rather than the Germans. Her sister, same story. Her father, Otto Frank, was even treated in a hospital and survived the war and the camps. But that doesn't match at all with the conventional horror explanation of what happened in the camps.
Perhaps they fled to the East, just like many German Jews fled to Britain or America during the thirties.
Same story. We cannot decide here where they did go to.
That's true. So where did they go, that's the question.
Perhaps they fled to the East, just like many German Jews fled to Britain or America during the thirties.
The biggest injustice is that some people forget about all of the non-Jews that died in the camps. I think it was roughly another 5 million people.

so...maybe they went further East? maybe the Jews went to China?

Museums, the death camps themselves, people confessing to killing them, Jews talking about how their family members would brutally murdered, Hitler papers talking about them doing it...
I feel that I must correct you here. The plural of "museum" is "musea".
Nobody denies the massive deportation programs the Nazis carried out. But how do you know these people died?! Did the evil Nazis send a card? Of course not. They were missing. There was no internet back then to make it easy for people to find each other again. You yourself give the example of people from Belgium ending up in Britain and America. How should they be able to find each other once separated? Almost impossible. You are assuming they died but you do not know.
I see that Eichmann's defense has already been brought up. In the same vein we might note that of all the defendants at the IMT in Nuremberg, not a single one even tried to deny the reality of the crimes committed by Nazi Germany.
Instead of "hey- this is a put-up job! None of this ---- ever happened!" it was, uniformly, "I am not responsible for these acts", which implicitly recognized their reality.
Why would that be?
Off topic a little, but didn't Eichmann's defense inspire the Milgram experiment?
