In September 2014, it was announced that Yoram Haimi from the
Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer Sheva, Israel, and Wojciech Mazurek
from the Archaeological Division, Chelm, Poland, and a team had discovered the
concrete foundations to a building previously covered up by post-war asphalt in
the immediate vicinity of a monument at the Sobibór site.
Despite extensive media coverage of the find—and Haimi’s claims
that these were the “gas chambers” of Sobibór, there is in reality no evidence
that the unearthed foundations are anything else but a building at the camp.
In fact, the unearthing of the foundations created more problems
for the Holocaust Storytellers’ narrative than anything else. Previously, it
had been claimed that there were three, four, or six “gas chambers” at Sobibór—but
the September 2014 “discovery” announced that there were now “apparently” eight
“gas chambers”—this based purely on the number of rooms unearthed in the
foundations.
Photographs of the 2014 excavation results shows an
irregular-shaped building with at least seven differing sized rooms, as can be
seen in the image below, released by the researchers.

This layout completely contradicts all previous narratives of
the Sobibór “gas chambers”, which all claimed that the execution chambers
worked with a two-door system and floor extensions on either side of the
building.
These “gas chambers” were, according to the “old” narrative, all the
same size (four meters square). On the one side of the “gas chambers,” the
Holocaust Storytellers claim, there was a ramp type affair used by the supposed
victims to enter the “gas chambers” and, on the other side were supposedly
larger doors through which the bodies were removed. As can be seen, the
unearthed foundations bear no resemblance to this narrative.
The total lack of any confirming evidence was highlighted by
media reports which were careful enough to put in their coverage that the
archaeological team had unearthed what they “thought” were the “gas chambers.”
For example, the Israeli Haaretz newspaper quoted Haimi as
specifically saying that the unearthed foundations “apparently” served as gas
chambers:
“We have finally found the building that apparently served as the gas
chambers,” said Israeli archaeologist Yoram Haimi, who has been coordinating
excavations at the site for the past eight years” (“Archaeologists uncover
remnants of Sobibór gas chambers”, Haaretz, Sept. 17, 2014).
Israel’s Y-net News also quoted Haimi as saying only that he
“believed” he had uncovered the gas chambers:
"Up until now, we've been
waiting for the asphalt to be removed for the construction of the new visitors
center, and as soon as it was removed we found this big structure, that we believe
housed the Sobibór camp's gas chambers” (“Sobibór's last survivor: There was no
time to fear, only to live”, Ynet News, 09.18.14).
In its coverage, the Reuters news agency also pointed out that
the archaeologists “believed” they had found the “gas chambers”:
“Archaeologists excavated beneath the road and found lines of bricks, laid four
deep, where they believe the walls of the gas chambers used to stand”
(“Archaeologists uncover buried gas chambers at Sobibór death camp”, Reuters,Sep 18, 2014).
The same Reuters article then produced another example of how
the Holocaust narrative continually changes: it stated that prisoners were
killed in “fifteen minutes with carbon monoxide gas,” and—incredibly—that the
Germans kept geese to hide the screams of the dying from other prisoners (!).
The structure of the unearthed foundations—in a place where
no-one disputes that there were buildings in the first place—is therefore
totally at variance with the “murder facility” claims.
The media coverage given to these excavations is therefore,
typically, completely false.
It is also noted with amusement that Ivar Schute from the
Netherlands was part of this Sobibór archeological dig team.
This is the same Schute who famously humiliated himself in
public, along with Caroline Sturdy Colls, by completely misidentifying aDziewulski i Lange porcelain factory mullet star as a “Star of David” in acomic—but pathetic—film claiming to have found the “gas chamber” at Treblinka.
The claims about the latest Sobibór “excavations” are clearly as
bogus as Schute’s earlier fantasies about “gas chamber tiles” at Treblinka.
In summary:
Firstly, and most importantly, there is no evidence at all these
foundations are actually those of “gas chambers.”
This is simply an invention by the “archeological
team” claiming to have found something that they themselves—as evidence in the
media coverage outlined above, only “think” and “believe” are gas chambers.
This bears repeating: there is no evidence at all to show that
these foundations are actually those of “gas chambers.”
Secondly, the shape of the walls and of the building completely
contradict all previous “eye-witness accounts” of “gas chambers” at Sobibór.
Either all the “eye-witnesses” were lying, or they were
“mistaken”—or, as is more likely the case, the whole allegation of “gas
chambers” is made up.
