On this date in 1948, SS man Dieter Wisliceny was hanged in Bratislava for his role in the destruction of European Jewry.
The Hauptsturmfuhrer joined the Nazi party in 1933 and became one of Adolf Eichmann‘s key lieutenants* implementing the Final Solution in the occupied east.
The porcine Wisliceny himself seems to have been more of an opportunist than anything else — a washout theology student who got in with the Nazis on the upswing and happily enriched himself shaking down Jews who were trying to avoid deportation from his fiefs in Slovakia, Hungary or Greece, generally without providing much substantive life-saving in return.
Arrested after the war, Wisliceny gave damning testimony to the Nuremberg court about his onetime boss.
[Eichmann] said he would leap laughing into the grave because the feeling that he had 5 million people on his conscience would be for him a source of extraordinary satisfaction.*
Wisliceny had actually been Eichmann’s superior in the 1930s, and helped to promote the man. As Eichmann surpassed him in rank, so the policy of wholesale extermination Eichmann came to symbolize surpassed Wisliceny’s Zionist emigration position.**
Notably, Wisliceny would claim that Eichmann showed him a written extermination order never recovered after the war.....

This should have happened to George Soros. He sent over 100 people to their deaths just so he could sell their belongings. He admitted this on 60 Minutes. He also said it was the best time of his life. Steve Kroft just sat there smiling.
He was also 13 years old.
Not defending him but stating a fact.
He was a ‘Bad Seed’. Evil and still is.
Because of all the horror surrounding the Nazi regime, people tend to overlook the fact that not only for the leadership, but for the rank and file as well, it was a get-rich-quick operation. Hitler copyrighted his image, so the government paid him for every ‘Hitler’ postage stamp printed. At the bottom, SS guards at extermination camps sold their victims’ clothing to the newly-arrived inmates.
Not arguing that he wasn’t evil just saying at the time he was 13 years old. We have 13 year old ghetto gangbangers killing people. I don’t know of any of them getting the death penalty. Maybe they should but it would be a real hard sell.
I do not care if he was 13. He helped kill over 100 people.
60 Minute interview.
