You are, of course, wrong. The US and Israeli governments prosecuted this fellow as Ivan the Terrible, one of the most notorious guards in WWII. When the catastrofe of executing the wrong individual was averted, we then decided that Demaniuk was in fact someone else. So, having sent him to Israel to be executed, we were SURE that he was Ivan then decided he was someone else.
Now, he was no Solomon Morel who is now resident in Israel. Poland has been trying to extradite that war criminal for crimes against humanity. Morel was a member of the secret police who ran a concentration camp in Stalinist times. I don’t agree, but the Israeli arguement is that the statute of limitations on war crimes has run out (and Morel is in bad health), and it’s time to stop prosecuting these people.
I'm actually not at all - but you'll keep making this claim until the cows come home.
You say that Ivan Demjanjuk "was no Solomon Morel."
Both are criminals who did horrendously evil things. Demjanjuk's crimes are absolutely comparable to Morel's - and worse in terms of sheer numbers.
The failure of Israel's government to render justice in this matter is no excuse for Demjanjuk to evade justice.
Two wrongs do not make a right.
