@wziminer @rarity @lisa44 @timr RevengeThe world tried to move on after the second world war, but one group, having survived the ghettoes and the death camps, was not about to let Nazi foot soldiers walk free. Jonathan Freedland reports on the Jewish avengers who tracked down and executed their tormentorshttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/jul/26/second.world.war

@wziminer @rarity @timr https://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/jul/26/second.world.warThe dirty little secret of the Holocaust, which many would regard as the greatest crime in human history, is that no one was punished for it. Of course, "no one" is not literally true. There were some, at the very top of the Nazi state, who were famously called to account at the Nuremberg trials. But that amounted to 24 individuals. And it takes more than 24 people to kill six million.

@wziminer @rarity @timr By 1949, four years after the war, only 300 Nazis were in prison. From an original wanted list of 13 million, just 300 paid anything like a serious price.Why were more of the guilty not punished? "Because it would have been a never-ending task," says David Cesarani, research professor at Royal Holloway, Univ of London, & a leading authority on the Holocaust.

@wziminer @rarity @timr He cites the British attempt to convict those responsible for the killing at Belsen. The trial took 9 mos & left the British exhausted. "That was just one camp & there were, what, 70 camps, with hundreds of people at each one. To say nothing of the Gestapo officers &the men of the Einsatzgruppen [the mobile killing units]."Pursuing all those responsible for the slaughter of the Jews would have meant trying thousands upon thousands of people ...

@wziminer @rarity @timr - and it would have ended in the jailing of almost the entire adult male population of Germany. "The allies put their hands up in despair."

@HunDriverWidow @wziminer @rarity @timr Thanks for posting. I was unaware that so few were ever bought to trial. When justice is not seen to be done it obviously empowers criminal behaviour.

@HunDriverWidow @wziminer @timr Interesting.Abba Kovner was a well-known personality. I’ve read mostly negatives about him, but he had a strong mission. I find it hard to fault him, TBH.There’s a drama series on Amazon Prime called “Hunters,” which is a schmaltzy takeoff on this theme. We watched it and somehow enjoyed most of it, starring Al Pacino. If you have nothing else to do, I recommend it.

@HunDriverWidow Ordering it now. Thank you. My dad was a WW II Vet and all he ever said was the *smell* of the camps was seared in his memory. He never would talk about what he saw.

@wziminer @rarity @timr My friend who recommended this book sent the comments below. Bob lives in LA; he used to play parts in movies years ago. He knows many of the oldtimers in Hollywood & shares what he remembers about them."My father was one of the troops that liberated Buchemwald-Ohrdroff. My father said the bodies there were stacked three stories high, and some of the SS guards were caught trying to masquerade as prisoners. It went badly for them; not bad enough IMHO!"

@wziminer Dwight D. Eisenhower on the Campshttps://remember.org/facts-aft-lib-eis.htmlThis is what Eisenhower said on pgs 408-9 of “Crusade in Europe”“The same day [April 12, 1945] I saw my first horror camp. It was near the town of Gotha. I have never felt able to describe my emotional reactions when I first came face to face with indisputable evidence of Nazi brutality and ruthless disregard of every shred of decency. Up to that time I had known about it only generally ...

“I visited every nook & cranny of the camp because I felt it my duty to be in a position from then on to testify at first hand about these things in case there ever grew up at home the belief or assumption that `the stories of Nazi brutality were just propaganda.’ Some members of the visiting party were unable to through the ordeal. I not only did so but as soon as I returned to Patton’s headquarters that evening I sent communications ...

to both Washington and London, urging the two governments to send instantly to Germany a random group of newspaper editors and representative groups from the national legislatures. I felt that the evidence should be immediately placed before the American and British publics in a fashion that would leave no room for cynical doubt.”
