/// While none of the victims were able to recall seeing Groening at the camp, he was charged with being accessory to the killings because he was essential to the running of Auschwitz. ///

Perhaps if they could find the camps electricians, plumbers etc, they should also be jailed?

mikey In your demonic quest for justice where do you draw your line? The new wording of the charges as amended since 2011 state ," Facilitating the murder etc" According to a lady survivor on BBC news today( Mrs Pollack) there were 20,000 administrators at Auschwitz who were not prosecuted so why this man Groening today? As I posted earlier do you think the the...

Someone who has bought the thread back to subject. :-)
So Waffen SS are the fighting divisions.Panzer Groups and Storm Troopers etc and we have other SS divisions.We also have SS who are made up of multinational groups.even Muslims, and Guards from Eastern Europe who are not Aryan German who oversee Lagers and belong to Einsatsgruppen.
Where do you differentiate who is responsible?

May I correct you? **** artist.

Any other German nonagenarians you would wish to condemn to hell in your Kangaroo court?
I think some of us recall last year the tragic occurrence of a young boy who died whilst skiing with his mother.
You posted the OP and stated vemhently that the mother was criminal and should not be in charge of children.She should be prosecuted in your view etc etc etc. for allowing her son to ski off piste.
As the days unfolded it transpired,in the press, that this was an awful tragic accident for which the poor grieving mother had no blame attached to her. She did not allow her child to ski of piste. You as usual went in all guns blazing and made a fool of yourself.When the facts were later established a lot of ABers who contributed to your OP thought you should apologise but you disappeared and refused to re enter the OP.
You often end up with egg on face.We love the entertainment you provide. "Ed is measuring up for the curtains to No 10 and will be red not blue."Dave is ordering Pickfords to vacate No 10" This poll and that poll states that Dave has no chance and if he is so popular how come he is 00000% behind Ed.
"Just read the polls.Labour will waltz into No 10".
Do you expect some of the less dogmatic on AB to agree with your view? Those who do not rant and rave and consider the facts first before opening mouth and continue to make themselves a laughing stock.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Sorry. The point I was making is are you going to quit when you can't continue to give a rational answer to the question posed to you?

I will apologise to you. You are,of course, entitled to your opinion no matter if we differ with our views.
A German soldier who refused to take part in the Lidice massacre wasn't shot,he was ,I think ,sent to another batallion.

Of course he should be jailed. It wasn't a 94 year old on trial. It was a 20+ year old, who just happens to now be 94. Guilty !
Interesting point janbee - and it chimes with my belief that justice does not operate a sliding scale of reduced tenacity depending on the passage of time.

Wrong, wrong, wrong///

mmm, how about;

" Well, its not the Muslim people who are at fault, it was just those horrid Islamists and the IS that were to blame "

Wrong, wrong, wrong ?
Its now apparent that Groening should have been tried 70 years ago. According to a full page report in today's Guardian, he was arrested and held prisoner here in Britain for "complicity in murder and ill treatment"

Not really sure why it took 70 years for him to tried. If he had been convicted in the late 1940's, there would have been no nonsense about him being "too old" to go to prison.
