*But Europe? Now that I’ve seen how they just never can get along with each other, ever, and after we’ve spent untold trillions of our tax dollars to defend them*
Any student of world history could confirm that Europe was the bloodiest continent in. world history.
Probably because he had reasonable doubt about Demnjanjuk's guilt, coupled with a sense of fair play in the treatment of an American citizen.
If I recalled, Demnjanjuk was convicted of war crimes based, in part, on the sworn testimony of eye witnesses that he was “Ivan the Terrible.” That conviction and death sentence was overturned by an Israeli court because it did not stand up to scrutiny on appeal.
It then occurred to German officials to charge Demnjanjuk with being an entirely different war criminal. He was convicted once again but died before his appeal on that sentence was completed.
I believe also the Soviets forged some of the evidence against him. He was basically a captured Ukrainian Red Army soldier, who was given the choice to be a guard, or to be shot. I call that 'extenuating circumstances'. Plus, the trial was basically the Germans trying to say, "See, it wasn't just us!"
There’s more. Didn’t know the news was 2 weeks old. Read a tribute in Lew Rockwell.com. Thought provoking.
Of course kakistocrats are going to hate us. We’re smarter than they are.
Happens to me a lot, too!....................
The Trump years turned me around on PB. Started to respect what he had to say. There are certain things I had issues with PB, but he was spot on for the last half decade at least. Hope he enjoys his retirement.
Yeah he comes off a little too pro-German for my tastes.
I wish it was anti-Trump NR that was retiring permanently. To hell with that screed.
Yes he seemed to have unfounded sympathy for Germany. Germany got off easy in my opinion.
Which Germany? Kaiser Germany or Hitler Germany?
Hitler’s Germany got off easy. Kaiser’s Germany was unfairly punished.
Agreed.
