1. This is a difficult case to judge
Steve Benassi ,   Minneapolis USA   (08.08.19)
He probably didn't volunteer but was assigned to serve there.

If he didn't harm anyone with his own hands or gun then maybe he should not be prosecuted.
2. Why don't we wait until the SS guys are 123 years old?

The German government puts former war criminals on trial, they are found guilty and judge rules they are to old to be sent to prison and case closed.
Apart from Israel no coutry has ever made any real effort to put former Nazis on trial since Nuremberg.

I THINK THEY KILLED ONE OR TWO.BACK IN THE 1960'S WHEN THEY WERE IN EGYPT. OFF LIMITS OF KILLING THEM. ISRAEL SHOULD BE QUIET AND ASHAMED.
7. FOIA info released 50 years after WWII ended shows the Jews
Rivkah   (08.11.19)
were avenged and it is time to leave 92 year old former guards who were obeying orders on penalty of death for themselves, alone. General Dwight David Eisenhower was called "That Terrible Swedish Jew" in his USMA yearbook The Howitzer. When he saw the camps, he starved to death over a million German soldiers in a field of 1.2 million. He posted snipers on rooftops to kill German men and unleashed US troops to rape and bite off the breasts of German woman. Then he had the Nuremberg Trials that my father who was a US Army Colonel said were illegal. In the history of warfare, never before were foreign conquerors allowed to try the government officials instead of having patsies of the nation conquered do that. The Jews have had their revenge and need to move on. Blaming a 92 year old teenage guard is preposterous.
