An elderly man suspected of Nazi war crimes has been arrested in Hungary, prosecutors said Wednesday, after a worldwide Jewish rights organization discovered him living in Budapest.
Ladislaus Csizsik-Csatary is accused of sending more than 15,000 Jews to the Auschwitz concentration camp in the spring of 1944, the he Simon Wiesenthal Center said.


Waste of time? Waste of money? Are you kidding me? Are you saying that hunting down bin laden shouldn't have happened because time heals all wounds? This nazi helped kill thousands no matter if they were babies, children, parents or seniors. He needs to be shown to the world that he is a disgrace no matter his age.
Millions, not thousands. Six million.
You both are wrong. The key to not having this massacre happen in the future is to keep finding/exposing these evil perps. This includes Syria and in past Rhuwanda/Iraq etc. Stop watching reality TV and get on board to what really matters in this world. Help get rid of evil and promote peace so we can move forward as a more advanced society.
Perhaps some of you who are suggesting a pass for this guy should do some reading on what happened at Auschwitz and at other Nazi concentration camps.
Food for thought: It's easy to criticize these people.. but how many of you would have done different with a gun pointed at your head?
And it's not like your refusal and subsequent execution would have made any difference. You'd just get shot and another person would come to replace you. The same innocent people still die, only you too..
Me. Id take a bullet to keep from being the one to send 14.000 people to their grave. Even if i knew there would be a guy behind me that would follow orders. Im sure there were plently of people who did stand up for what was right and arent here because of it.
People who blindly followed orders are the reason things like this happen.
In Mexico the zetas cartel killed a bus full of people who refused to join them. God bless this righteous people.
I don't care how old he is. He should be arrested. Being a descendent of slaves, if any of the owners were still alive I would want them arrested also. Finally a small bit of justice for his victims.
I'm glad most of you feel the way you do...GREAT...now lets go after the SLAVE TRADERS...If their is no limitations on genocide...whats the problem...?......................................"crickets"
God. Dumb american kids have literally no idea what the world was like, the sheer brutality of it, during WWII. For anyone giving this guy a pass due to his age, you need to grow up a bit and educate yourself as to what actually happened world wide and the staggering amount of murders that were committed by Allied and Axis regimes both. Just slapping history in the face with your mo ronic comments.
Most atrocities committed during 20th century wars have long been forgiven or forgotten. That's how we grow as a people. Carrying hatred and vengeance in one's heart is a sickness that only death can cure!
How in the world are they going to be able to prosecute this man? Witnesses? Zero.
he has been tried in absentia and found gulity. they only need to produce him and then he can serve his sentence
This is an opportunity to show grace. Like the our Father shows us...
Convict him now and sentence him to geriatic care at further public expense for the rest of his days. The worst fate he can experience now is to be ignored.
We are the chosen people and rulers of the world. The rest of you can kiss our tuches'.
YOU are the converted people...keep believing your own lie....18th century conversion... Revelation 2:9 ESV
“‘I know your tribulation and your poverty (but you are rich) and the slander of those who say that they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan
waaah waaah whimper whimper whine wimper.....who am i?
get over it dirtbags
He will receive judgement for his evil actions after he dies
Why wasn't Wernher von Braun ever prosecuted?
He personally ran a Nazi work camp (V2 rocket assembly plant), and with that, personally, worked Jews to death or ordered their executions. Von Braun was also a member of the SS.
But for some reason, the jews always looked the other way for him. Double standard?
He was useful to the US government. You're not.
our government and the russians divided up the german scientists after wwII and we got him. our government hid the facts from the american people about who we were giving refugee status to. we knew in the 1960's just who we had, but by then he had become part of our space program. so as in all matters, he was useful to us and it didn't matter what he did during wwII. shame on us. we were taught in school what a great, moral country we lived in but we saw with our own eyes jsut what kind of country we lived in when we saw american people being attacked by their police for trying to vote. what a great place. we were also told to love it or leave it. i chose to change it or lose it. don't forget. always remember. we americans have such a short attention span. we are doing it again.
What will these poor nazi hunters, who define their lives but hunting down these guys, do in a couple years when none can be found still alive
They will finally rest knowing they have rid the world of these horrible criminals.
They'll be dead as well genius
Rest.
So, what's your point? And even if they define their lives by capturing former nazi-prison guards, what's the problem with that? Your statement smells of condescension, and I don't see anything intelligent behind your point. Reformed or not, people like the one found in Budapest, should be hunted until they are extinct. That is the price they all must pay for nearly wiping a race of people from the Earth for no better reason than they didn't like them too much.
rest
They'll search out and arrest ignorant tools like you.
