Sounds like it's time to get tough on all the other illegal aliens or fraudulent immigrants. Germany would seem to have room for all of them (if you get my drift).
I have never been comforable with this particular case. Something was never right with this...
This is an outrage. Jeez, this man is 91 years old. Dont you think it is time to bring him home?
I suspect that this is like the Duke non-assault, non-rape witch hunt. The defendant’s guilt or innocence became secondary to the symbolism of the case. This defendant’s problem is that he didn’t have well-to-do, well-connected parents who could afford lots of lawyers, publicists, and investigators.
Read Quiet Neighbors and see if you still feel the same way.
No you are correct, his citizenship was revoked. If anyone needed his citizenship revoked, it should be Soros
Thanks. I agree about Soros.
Amnesty for nazis, eh?
There was also NO proof that he had ever been to Treblinka. There is equally little proof that he was ever in Sobibor. What little ‘proof’ that they have is most likely manufactured.
The fact is that John Demjanjuk, guilty or not, should NEVER have been sent to of all places Germany to stand trial for crimes that of he committed, he was FORCED to com mit by the fathers and grandfathers of those who prosecuted him.
The Germans have a great deal of nerve prosecuting ANYBODY over war crimes! Especially an American citizen who suffered as a Ukrainian for the first thirty years of his life.
Oh, anyone paying attention to this Hitler loving revisionist history spewing LOON.
Buchanan is NOT the favorite ‘go to’ so called Conservative of the rabid leftwing media for no reason. Keeps the Jewish liberals ‘on the plantation’.
Demjanjuk is small potatoes, a very small cog in a very large killing machine. But he is also low-hanging fruit so the people who didn’t go after the bigger fish at the time seek to redeem themselves by going after a guy who most likely did what he had to do to survive.
False and false.
You don’t need to prove anything, what you do need is a preponderance of evidence and they DO have that.
Maybe you feel that eyewitness accounts are “nothing” I ,however, do not.
“The fact is that John Demjanjuk, guilty or not, should NEVER have been sent to of all places Germany to stand trial for crimes...”
Better there than Israel, they would have hung his a$$.
Nazi hunting machine could not fry innocent,
while Soros is doing his “humane” thing.
Way to go!
Instead of criticizing the author, because you don’t like him. Why don’t you discuss the article instead?
If they went after this man based on shaky evidence, they should go after George Soros.
LOLOLOL.....how predictable.
Uhhh, they already tried him in Israel.
Did the guy have a rough life? Yeah. Was he a Nazi prison guard? Yeah. Was he an American - as Buchanan constantly says - briefly - he was stripped of his naturalized American citizenship status. Were there “bigger fish to fry” that went unfried - certainly.
But this IS a step in the right direction: “breaking legal ground that could pave the way for the prosecution of many low-level cogs in Hitler's machinery of destruction.”
The guy is still walking free. I cry no tears for Nazi Prison guards - even if they didn't want to be.
A man with a gun has a choice. Was he an unarmed guard?
Well, after all he’s old. He should be left in peace. He accidentally gave the wrong name on his citizenship application. The scar under his arm where the SS tattoo removed was really just a shaving scar. He was only following orders.
