The sources contradict the claim: the Allies declined repeated requests to bomb the railways leading to Auschwitz and did not bomb supply routes to camps to cut off food, and the bombing that did occur was aimed at military targets such as oil installations and the Auschwitz industrial area.
What was said
… No, I didn't know the piece on the Christian piece. I had no idea about that, though. That's crazy, right? Because they don't teach you that part. Why won't they take well, well, they also don't teach the fact that, I don't know, the Allied forces bombed the supply routes to all the concentration camps, so they couldn't get food to them. Yeah, that's where we got our strategic bombing from. It's, bro, there's all kinds of lies that people have never dug into because they've just been fed the information and never looked into it. Yeah, yeah. Approximately what year are you talking about? …
REAL AF with Andy Frisella · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Contradicts. The US War Department refused requests to bomb the railway lines to Auschwitz, and the USHMM and Reuters sources state the Allies chose not to bomb Auschwitz or its railways.[1][2][3][4]
Contradicts. Allied bombing that passed near deportation railways did so while striking oil and industrial targets, not as a campaign against food or supply routes to camps.[4][5]
Contradicts. The only source asserting that Allied bombing cut camp supply lines and caused starvation is a Reddit discussion whose comments dispute it, so it is not independent corroboration.[6]
Context. The post's wording ('all the concentration camps') is a broad generalization; the record covers only specific Auschwitz-area decisions and does not describe a camp-wide food blockade.[2][4]
