Simon Wiesenthal Z"L

From Haaretz:
Simon Wiesenthal, the Holocaust survivor who helped track down numerous Nazi war criminals following World War II then spent the later decades of his life fighting anti-Semitism and prejudice against all people, died Tuesday. He was 96.

Right on. I heard on the radio this morning that his work began while in the camps -- as an inmate he drafted a list of his tormentors which he passed on to the Americans that liberated him.

we are told to do the work of the Lord,
Simon Wiesenthal did the work of the Lord,
because the Lord wasn't.

I'm very happy to see that you picked up this story.
Wiesenthal should never be forgotten for his great work.

Amshi- your comment made me shiver. I don't know if I agree with it or not but wow.

Simon Wiesenthal did not go to heaven,
no he went straight to hell.
(He had some old scores to settle)
