Germar Rudolf is German chemist and Holocaust denier.
In 1990, following his military service and postgraduate studies, Rudolf worked at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research in Stuttgar,t Germany. While in this position, Rudolf wrote a paper called “Report on the formation and verifiability of the cyanide compounds in the Auschwitz gas chambers” which alleged that only small traces of cyanide was found in Auschwitz.
In 1994, the district court of Tubingen sentenced Rudolf to 14 months in prison for Holocaust denial. He avoided the sentence by fleeing to Spain, England eventually the United States.
In 2005, Rudolf was arrested and deported to Germany where he was transferred to a prison in Stuttgart for a two year and six month sentence on grounds for inciting hatred, disparaging the dead and libel.
Rudolf’s threat is his scientific background. While most Holocaust deniers come from non-technical fields, Rudolf presents information that he alleges as scientifically factual, when it is in fact not the case.
"The Holocaust is used to control Germany (and hence Europe), to suppress national movements, and to maintain American dominance -- to say nothing of the power leftist and internationalist movements derive from it, and the use to which Jewish and Zionist groups put it."
