Nazis sentenced

By

Senator Durbin, you babbled thoughtlessly about Nazism, smearing all in the process.  And while you were playing martyr some real Nazis were convicted of the evil they perpetrated 61 years earlier.  

The pain is still raw.

Italy has sentenced 10 former Nazis, now in their 80s and living in Germany, to life terms in absentia for the 1944 massacre of 560 people in Tuscany. 

But the defendants will not serve their sentences because they are too old and will not be extradited to Italy, the Times of London reported. 

The victims, including men, women and children, in the village of Sant'Anna di Stazzema, were slaughtered because the Nazis failed to find any anti—fascists in the area. The soldiers were with the 16th Panzer Grenadier Division of the Waffen SS, the report said.

This behavior and worse lasted over 10 years; 20 million, more?, died. 
Meanwhile detainees in Guantanamo are gaining weight.
 
Now do you understand?
 
I think not.
