Criminal justice
People generally speak about the Holocaust and the Nazis as if they are only part of the past. Movies such as Quentin Tarantino's recently released Inglourious Basterds have even changed the history of the Holocaust, with Hitler dying at the hands of an American-led Jewish special unit, making the events of that era seem even more distant. But while museums such as Yad Vashem bring tears to our eyes regarding the fate of millions, they also obscure the very tragic truth: Living today within numerous Western democracies are actual Nazis, not those pictured in black and white in some book, but walking around tending gardens and even going to soccer games in Europe. more...

Nazi war criminals unlikely to be in NZ

He is in the country publicising the Simon Wiesenthal Centre's Operation Last Chance, which is an attempt to round up surviving Nazi war criminals. But German Society of New Zealand President Inge Attenberger says it is far fetched. She says the society has no reason to be concerned as there are no men who are in their eighties who could have been in the Second World War. Ms Attenberger says the oldest member of the community in New Zealand is a woman in her eighties. A $10,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest and prosecution of war criminals. more...

Nazis : la dernière traque, par Dominique Dhombres


Simon Wiesenthal, qui avait consacré son existence à chasser les criminels nazis, est mort le 19 septembre 2005. C'est lui qui avait retrouvé la trace d'Adolf Eichmann, jugé et pendu en Israël en 1962. Le centre Simon-Wiesenthal est désormais installé à Jérusalem. Les criminels nazis survivants sont octogénaires ou nonagénaires. more...

Nazis, la dernière trace


Pièces à conviction. France 3. 23 h 20.

Sur l'écran, ils ont des airs de petits grands-pères bien tranquilles. Ils coulent une retraite paisible, en Autriche ou ailleurs. Ces vieux messieurs sont en réalité d'anciens dirigeants nazis. Mathieu Sarfati, avec l'aide du centre Simon-Wiesentahl à Jérusalem, a réussi à retrouver quelques-uns des mille nazis qui vivraient en Europe. « Dans chacun des six pays où nous avons tourné, nous sommes allés voir le procureur général et le porte-parole du ministre de la Justice », raconte Mathieu Sarfati. Lesquels ont donné de forts mauvais prétextes pour ne pas arrêter et juger ces bourreaux, dont les crimes sont pourtant imprescriptibles. Pire : le journaliste révèle que beaucoup d'anciens nazis ont trouvé refuge en Autriche, où ils sont assurés de vivre tranquilles. Certes, ces messieurs sont aujourd'hui très âgés. Mais ils ont supprimé à des millions de personnes la possibilité de vieillir. Ce document fait preuve d'utilité publique : le nazisme, et les idées qui en découlent, ce n'est pas que de l'histoire.

Nazis, la dernière traque


Simon Wizenthal est décédé à 96 ans le 20 septembre 2005 à Vienne. Mais l'oeuvre du plus grand chasseur de nazis ne s'est pas arrêtée avec lui. La fondation portant son nom vient de lancer une vaste campagne pour traquer les derniers dignitaires du régime hitlérien. Son nom : « Opération de la dernière chance ». C'est cette ultime chasse à l'homme que les caméras de Pièces à conviction ont suivi à travers toute l'Europe et même Jérusalem.

Ultime, car les chances de succès s'amenuisent avec le temps. Les anciens nazis sont de moins en moins nombreux, rattrapés par le temps et la vieillesse à défaut de l'être par la justice des hommes. C'est une véritable course contre la montre que les chasseurs doivent mener.

Dernière piste en date : la réapparition du docteur Aribert Heim en Espagne. Un nazi qu'il faudra rapidement arrêter : il aurait 91 ans… more...

Days after the passing of Nazi criminal hunter Simon Wiesenthal, Arutz-7 TV conducted an English interview with Dr. Ephraim Zuroff, Director of the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Israel.

Zuroff started by discussing what motivated Weisenthal to dedicate his life to hunting down and bringing Nazi war criminals to justice. "One of the things that really motivated him was his desire to give meaning to his own survival. He often asked himself, why was it that he survived. [Ed. note: Wiesenthatl lost 89 relatives in the Holocaust.] He wanted very much to give significance to that survival, and this was one of his main motivations," Zuroff told Arutz-7 TV's Mark Kaplan. more...
