Demjanjuk: Time for Trial

> I have a very strong opinion about the continuing story of John Demjanjuk, accused Nazi war criminal. Demjanjuk has eluded deportation for years. Now he is an elderly man in a wheel chair. He is trying to avoid going to Germany to stand trial for war crimes.

Frankly, I don't care how old or how sick he is. If he supported, worked for, or participated in the arrest, imprisonment, torture, and execution of innocent men, women, and children, he needs to be on his way to Germany. Millions of people were denied life because of the Nazis. The young, the old, the sick, and the handicapped were rounded up and killed. They were denied life. Under no circumstances should Demjanjuk or any other suspected Nazi be denied a trial because of their own infirmities.

There is more on Demjanjuk and other accused war criminals at ABC News.
