...Wiesenthal ... is more concerned that the world?particularly the postwar generation of Jews and Germans who find Hitler's genocide hard to believe?realize that there were, and still are, SS killers at large.

Silberbauer readily admitted his role. Asked if he had read the diary, he told a reporter: 'Bought the little book last...

Her second novel, Il Giardino del Luppolo (The Hop Garden), published last year in Italy, is about a young German in the 1920s who has hallucinatory premonitions of Hitler's rise.

...regime, to exterminate European Jewry." But where was a more explicit reference to the role of German Catholics in allowing the Nazi deportation of millions of Jews? And where was some reference to the German Pope's own experience? After all, the teenage Joseph Ratzinger was drafted into the Hitler Youth in his native Bavaria, against his will and the wishes of his own anti-Nazi policeman father. Or why not mention what he, as a young German priest, thought when the full extent of Hitler's crimes came to light? Still, my colleague would reserve final judgment until...
