The criminal trial began Thursday of a 100-year-old man who was a Nazi SS guard at a concentration camp during World War II -- who faces charges of being an accessory to thousands of deaths there over a period of three years. The man, identified as Josef S., faces about 3,500 counts. German prosecutors say he aided mass murder at the Sachsenhausen camp between 1942 and 1945. The man didn't speak during the hearing and his attorney said he wouldn't reveal personal details. Prosecutors say the former guard knowingly supported thousands of deaths at the camp that occurred  CORRECTION*

1, leave what alone? I wasn't aware there was a statute of limitations on mass murder and genocide. That's 3500 people who never had a chance to live to 100 like he did.

Is it any wonder that so much generational misunderstanding exists? To millennials, a hate crime is mean-tweeting. To Boomers, a hate crime is a jack-booted monster pinning a yellow star on your shirt and directing you into a boxcar.

Enough. If truly guilty he's lived with shame for 70+ years. There is no way a fair trial can be held after this length of time. God WILL sort it out and he will not escape HIS justice.

Sorry #1 - You cannot just leave stuff like this alone. These people were monsters who somehow overcame natural instincts to commit the most unspeakable, vile crimes imaginable. Letting this go because so much time has passed encourages the same thing to happen over and over again. Given the current slide of our nation into the similar darkness demonstrated by both the communists and the nazis over the last 100 years, I fail to understand how anyone can advocate letting it go. We must never forget, or we will become what they were.

The stress and duration of a trial will kill him. It's the death penalty, regardless of the verdict. JUSTICE!, Kangaroo Style. You believe the world's highest legal priority took 70 years? The accused is innocent until proven otherwise, even if the accusation is as serious as being a NAZI or... a Trump Supporter. How can this presumed innocent man possibly face his accusers or call on defence witnesses if they are dead? Justice delayed is justice denied. Maybe he is guilty, maybe not. But the prosecution is, at best, wrong by 70 years. Bear in mind, Biden can't remember Tuesday...

He won't reveal details? Good Lord, the guy is 100 years old. I don't think it's a matter of won't as much as it is can't. He was an ordinary soldier doing what he was told to do. He probably didn't like it, but he was no position to stop it. He didn't give the orders. I'll bet he's had nightmares his entire life. I'm all for remembering the Holocaust and making sure it never happens again, but going after someone whose a 100 years old who had no say in what was going on 80 years after the fact is ridiculous. We have a recent example of what happens to a soldier who questions the actions of the brass. He was lucky. He was just sent to jail. Do you think the German brass back WWII would have been that lenient?

I'm posting this just as a thought exercise. Let's take the case of Werner Von Braun. He designed and built the V-! nd V-2 rockets using slave labor under horrendous conditions. His missiles rained down on England, destroying cities and causing casualties tin the multiple of thousands. His fate? He was scooped by the U.S., with what V-2's remained and in the end became head of the newly founded NASA. The SS Guard, on the other hand, was placed in a kill or be killed position by being posted at Sachsenhausen. And then there's George Soros, Nazi Collaborator, who to this day is being protected from prosecution. Just something to think about.

The men who led and ordered all the mass murder committed suicide 75 years ago. A lot of the rank and file believed all the brainwashing and propaganda, and followed along. It was evident that Germany was going to lose the war by the end of 1943, but the leadership, knowing they would be hung, if they surrendered, fought on to the end, leaving Germany a pile of rubble.

My wife was doing the documentation on the gift of a concentration camp uniform to a museum. She asked me for some help translating an article, from the original German, that mentioned the donor. American soldiers took over the camp, arrested the German troops and SS soldiers, and held a preliminary trial. Why preliminary? Because some of the guards were compassionate with the prisoners. Weren't sadistic. Were humane. The prisoners sorted the good from the bad in the hearings and places like Nuremburg did the rest. But that struck me... the prisoners thought some of the guards were good. We don't hear that nowadays. If he was a guard, he's toast. Period. Some of them should get ... toasted. But some....

Virginia Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin was fond of claiming on the campaign trail that he would end Terry McAuliffe’s 43-year political career. He did so Tuesday night in emphatic fashion, after McAuliffe ran a tone-deaf, smug campaign in a blue state. (snip) We should not forget that McAuliffe’s role in Virginia politics was mostly due to his close friendship with Bill and Hillary Clinton. McAuliffe was co-chairman of the former president’s 1996 reelection campaign, chairman of the Democratic National Committee from 2001-05, and chairman of Hillary Clinton’s failed 2008 presidential campaign.

In just five years, the percentage of Republicans with at least some trust in national news organizations has been cut in half – dropping from 70% in 2016 to 35% this year. This decline is fueling the continued widening of the partisan gap in trust of the media. Nearly eight-in-ten Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents (78%) say they have “a lot” or “some” trust in the information that comes from national news organizations – 43 percentage points higher than Republicans and Republican leaners (35%) – according to a new Pew Research Center survey conducted June 14-27, 2021.

China's growing military muscle and its drive to end American predominance in the Asia-Pacific is rattling the U.S. defense establishment.
