Jag tycker du ska läsa vad Richard Harwood skriver om Röda Korset i boken "Did six million really die?":

Tillägg: Dr Toben på Adelaide institute skriver att Röda Korsets besök i Auschwitz var månatliga. Detta står att läsa i Röda Korsets rapport som är nämnd ovan.
Rapporten fastslår, att "det dagligen packades ända till 9.000 paket. Från hösten 1943 till maj 1945 skickades samanlagt 1.112.000 paket med en totalvikt av 4.500 ton till koncentrationslägren". (vol. 111, s 80).
Det med över en miljon paket stämmer inte med annan information. Källan ska förstås inte vara del 111, men vol. III (finns i Sverige på KB och i Raoul Wallenberg institutet om du vill kolla sida 80).
Jag skrev i ett tidigare inlägg:
Rapportens ämne är inte koncentrationslägren, men Röda Korsets aktiviteter under kriget. Mitt intryck är att det är en försvarskrift mot anklagelser om att Röda Korset borde ha gjort mer. Rapporten berättar antagligen utförligt om allt gott som Röda Korset minsann har gjort. Rapporten var nog också en källa till texten på ICRCs websida:

A year later, the ICRC obtained authorization from the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs to send food parcels to internees in the concentration camps whose whereabouts it knew of. It had details concerning about 50 deportees, to each of whom it sent a parcel, and during the summer it received acknowledgements of receipt countersigned by the addressees. The ICRC subsequently managed to find out where other deportees were interned and it expanded its parcel-sending operation. By 1 March 1945, the ICRC had details on about 56,000 deportees, and by the end of the hostilities, 105,000. From the summer of 1944 onwards, the organization supplemented its individual parcels with collective shipments. In total, up to May 1945 it sent over 122,000 parcels to the concentration camps. But this operation did not succeed in reaching those deportees who were subjected to the harshest regime, nor did it give captives any protection from torture or massacres. The ICRC thus continued its approaches to the German authorities, in order to visit the concentration camps. These approaches met with a categorical refusal.
In October 1943, the ICRC sent a delegate named Jean de Bavier to Hungary. On 17 May 1944, Friedrich Born arrived to take his place. Powerless to prevent it, they witnessed the wave of deportations to Auschwitz of almost all the Jews living in the provinces, which was organized by the SS between 15 May and 7 July 1944.
