This goes to prove the power ogf the state. This man was tormented for over thirty years...convicted and overturned until the U.S. governemnt was able to find a country that was able to convict him on charges that where specious at best.

Convicted of crimes against humanity by of all people, GERMANY!

I do not know if he was a POW or forced death camp guard. Regardless, the stte decided he was guilty over thirty years ago and tormented this man no matter the proof.

The earthly end of a man whom I believed to be honorable and innocent of all charges!

May he rest in peace and may his family receive consolation and peace in the knowledge that their innocent father is with our Savior.

I wonder why Tom Lehrer didn’t get in the act like he did with Wernher von Braun:

“Some have harsh words for this man of renown
But some think our attitude should be one of gratitude
Like the widows and cripples in old London town
Who owe their large pensions to Wernher von Braun.”

God is the final judge.

Good riddance

He was guilty as Hell. The only reason he was never put to death was the stupidity of all the nations and their courts. Technical legal glitches kept him alive, not any innocence.

” And John Demjanjuk, 91, after spending five years on death row for a crime he did not commit in a place he never was, is stateless and homeless in a Germany where veterans of the SS walk free. “

They hounded this poor bastard with the flimsiest of proof.

Yeah, it is telling that they pursued him with great fervor for all of those years yet pay no attention to scumbags like Soros who was an admitted Nazi collaborator.

Injustices like this happen because people, in the desire for vengeance, often forget that making people into scapegoats doesn’t do anything to advance justice. It is to try to prevent situations like this that we have the “innocent until proven guilty” rule.

As someone mentioned, it *is* telling that Soros still walks free, although he admitted to collaboration with the Nazis and is thus responsible for God only knows how many innocent deaths. And Soros apparently enjoyed being a collaborator. I could ask why Soros walks free, while an autoworker who would be otherwise unknown was persecuted for so long... but I think we all know the an$wer.

You’ve had stuff to say about this guy.

The Devil is a ‘Nazi’, while all the angels have been Communist!
