Talk:Walter Rauff

message: : After the war, Rauff was detained in Italy but was aided by ODESSA, and perhaps the Croatian Nazi priests in the Vatican, in escaping to Latin America.
Ahm... this is also at Talk:Klaus Barbie. --Joy [shallot] 14:08, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: It has been known for years that ODESSA had nothing to do with his escape. In 1948 under the name of Janis Walburg, Rauff was recruited by the Foreign ministry's Political Department (later to become Mossad) as an agent (double agent as he was also working for Syria). When he went to South America the priest did give Rauff money but it was Israeli intelligence that supplied his ticket and passport. Wayne 00:12, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

message: This Van is clearly a Magirus. Nothing is known about gas vans from "Magirus". It should be removed because gas vans are known from the companies Saurer, [[Diamond T], Opel and Renault.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thomas Maierhofer (talk • contribs) 07:34, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

Das Foto zeigt keinen Gaswagen. Es handelt sich bei diesem Fahrzeug offensichtlich um einen Magirus-Deutz. Nach allen Veröffentlichungen wurden nur Wagen der vier Firmen Diamond, Renault, Sauer und Opel umgebaut.

Der Fall des Vernichtungslagers Chelmno wurde durch die "Hauptkommission für die Untersuchung von Verbrechen der Deutschen in Polen" ab Mai 1945 untersucht (dies war der Name der Kommission zu Beginn ihrer Existenz). 
Die Kommission erhielt die Information, dass in der ehemaligen Ostrowski-Fabrik in der Stadt Kolo (ca. 12 km von Chelmno entfernt) ein Gaswagen steht, der laut Zeugenaussagen im Vernichtungslager Chelmno eingesetzt worden war. Der Wagen wurde gefunden, fotografiert und untersucht. 
Die damals aufgenommenen Fotos sind verwahrt im Archiv der Hauptkommission in Warschau (Signaturen: 47398, 47396, 47397, 47399, am besten ist Nr. 47398). Die Titel dieser Fotografien lauten auch heute noch: "ein Wagen zum Töten von Menschen durch Auspuffgase, in Chelmno". Eines dieser Fotos wurde abgebildet in Flemings Buch "Hitler and the Final Solution", mit der Information, dass es das Foto eines "Gaswagens" sei, der in Chelmno benutzt worden war.

message: Is there any authority for the statement that there was a Nazi "long-term aim to export the Jewish Holocaust to the Near and Middle East (including the British Mandate of Palestine, British-occupied Iraq, French-occupied Syria, the Lebanon, Egypt, and Libya), and capture the region’s petroleum fields"?
:: It's quite simple. No, there isn't. It's just another propaganda ploy to set an agenda. --105.4.5.4 (talk) 14:24, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

message: The statement that "His funeral was the occasion of a Nazi celebration" is unreferenced and political. It is also unlikely. A funeral is simply that. Unless anyone can provide a reference that establishes that his funeral was the occasion of a "Nazi celebration", this claim ought to be deleted.Royalcourtier (talk) 20:08, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

message: The allegation that Rauff was employed by the Mossad at some point was removed but has been recently put back into the article, unsourced. I see further up someone linked to a now-dead Haaretz page about it, but the only thing I can find on the current Haaretz site is this https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium-the-mossads-botched-assassination-attempts-on-nazi-war-criminals-1.5449633, stating that he was used as an intelligence source concerning the work of the Syrian army "before the Mossad was founded". It describes multiple assassination plots after the foundation of the agency. Anybody got anything else? If that is the extent of it, it perhaps should be rephrased, given the sensitive subject matter. Dragoon17 (talk) 05:18, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know which Haaretz article you say is dead, but one relevant article is available at this url and also this url. It is also more clear on which agency was involved, though one should be aware that precursors of the Mossad are often called Mossad in retrospect despite the inaccuracy.

message: "Rauff is accused by Jewish sources of being responsible for nearly 100,000 deaths during World War II. " Unsourced and the use of Jewish sources here feels politically motivated. Should be sourced and cite the relevant organization(s).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:541:480:18A0:F9E9:32F9:6DDC:2F29 (talk) 21:56, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
