Makes you wonder when this man spent his life behind bars

I am always saddened when I hear that neo (is that somehow less serious) nazis are allowed to recruit. This always gives pain as I also believe in free speech. It is especially frightening when the neo nazis come from Germany, I believe on this subject, the Germans lost the right to free speech and they should be stamped out.

Amazing this guy lived so long, the abuse done to his body during the war would have shortened the lives of most. I hope when the last survivor dies we do not put it into the annuls of history, something 'the' not 'our' ancestors did, who feels bad about the Huguenots today... ?

The saddest part of the story, if I read it correctly, we are in fear of repeating it. The propaganda we read every day in mainstream publications concerning Muslims (they started the war don't you know) bears uncanny resemblance to the brownshirt's papers in the 30's.

I have been wondering, if I set off on my little ship, where in the world might be a safe place to go, you see, one day they'll come for me as a waste of food. If you are an old giffer, don't sit too comfortable, I predict euthanasia proposals first

Thanks Jim, and sorry to hear that he died. I knew of him through his work with Searchlight and other organisations. He was a regular speaker at ant-nazi events in the UK and, even as a very old man, was targetted as a consequence. It must have been absolutely galling for Leon Greenman to see UK based nazi apologists claim that the death camps were simply Allied propaganda.

Incidentally, the last of the Scottish volunteers who fought with the International Brigade, for the Spanish Republc, died last week.
