The former Soviet Union is full of people who were members of the Communist Party. Arnold's father had no more connection with the Holocaust than these Russians did to the Gulag and the mass starvings in the Ukraine.

While I'm somewhat sympathetic to your thoughts there, I still have to hold anyone who would join a NAZI organization as being very problematic, holocaust or not. German leadership was clearly unworthy of associating with on any level.

That being said, I don't know what went through Schwarzenegger's dad's mind on this. Clearly taking Arnold to task for the actions of his father, never mentioned as having participated in any specific criminal act, is way beyond the pale by my standards.
