The short answer is, "no."

That's what I expected. You are beyound any rational reasoning. 
It's been shown here so many times already. So why should I
bother?
Not for you anyhow.
You don't want to know the truth because it would ruin your
ideals. Or you know it, but you want to distort it to
serve your purposes.
Holocaust revisionism is nazism in a very transparent 
disguise.
The Finnish Field Marshal Mannerheim said only one word
to his nearest general after he had discussed privately
with Himmler: "Disgusting!"
I think it's about all that any decent human being can
still say to any of you revisionists.

    The question I would like to have answered is, what then is your 
alternative explanation for why Himmler would make such a request?

Exactly. Colonel Kalle Lehmus, the head of the Finnish military intelligence
service during WWII, tells in his memoirs "Tuntematon Mannerheim" ("Unknown
Mannerheim"), 1967, about the visit of Himmler:

"During his arriving day served lunch it however happened, that a couple
of Finns managed to persuade the SS-man who had been left to Himmler's
hotel room to guard his masters suitcase, to the hotel bar in the name
of the brotherhood of arms for a little time to have a wellcome grog, and
during that time the main contest of the suitcase was managed to photograf.
It wasn't about alleged SS-operations in Lappland after all, but about
the arragements of the Jewish question in the part of Finland.
In that suitcase - with which Himmler said not to part even when
at sleep - existing papers it occured, that in the 20 th of January,
1942 there had been a high level conference at the suggestion of
Himmler in Reinhard Heydrich's villa at Wannsee, Berlin, and that in
that conference had been definitely agreed about the final resolvement
('endg~ltige L|sung) of the question of the European Jews byt starting
large-scale physical extermenation."

Colonel Lehmus tells, that among other papers in that suitcase, was
the name list of every Finnish Jew. The news was immediately brought
to Mannerheim and the prime minister of Finland, who thus got some
time to prepare themselves to answer Himmler's claims. Finland's
attitude was quite clear from the beginning. "Only over my dead
body" said Mannerheim (the commander of Finnish army) to the
ministers.

The Finnish prime minister Rangell was heard about this right after the
war by the control commission of the allies. Rangell said that SS-
Reichsfuhrer Heidrich Himmler had in some occasion said that he wanted
to discuss about the Finnish Jewish question and he (Rangell) had 
answered that there is no Jewish question in Finland. End of that
discussion.

Excuse my less than perfect translation. The facts are there only
the language could be better.

One of the most important things to remember about Nuremberg was that it
was a trial of the vanquished by the victors.

Another interesting point is that many of the crimes for which the accused
were prosecuted were ex post facto, that is, created after the "crime"
itself.

For the background on these and similar trials, Telford Taylor (who was a
participant at the original trials) covers this in his latest book about
Nuremberg, the title of which escapes me at the moment. You may or may not
agree with what Taylor says, but it is interesting to see what he has to
say for himself after nearly fifty years of attempting to justify his
actions.
