Adolf Eichmann, this man played a vital role in the attempt by the Germans to exterminate the Jews, he was in charge of large concentration camps were Jews were kept await to be slaughtered in what the Germans called " the final solution" Eichmann disappeared after Germany lost the war, but in 1960 he was finally captured by the Israeli mossad in Argentina, the capture of Eichmmann was in the front pages of newspapers worldwide, he was tried in Isreal and sentenced to death, his body was cremated and the ashes was sprinkled on the Mediterranean sea.

Just take a look at the photos of this men and you will notice that non of them was smiling.

I think Eichmann was working at Mercedes Benz in Argentina when captured. One of the most famous Nazis escaped to S. America and was never captured....forgot his name.

Nice one, even if the Nazis were bad, there was still some positive from them,

Nazis gave to Europe what Europeans love the most : War.

What upset Europeans the most is they will never know where Hitler went, and where his grave is. That 's why they made up stuff such as the suicide in the bunker .

yes you are correct Eichmann was working at a Mercedes benz factory in Argentina under a disguised name "Ricardo Clement" his son was dating an Argentine girl not knowing the girl was from a Jewish decent, he would often boast of how his Father slaughtered Jews during world war 2. The Nazi that was never captured was Walter Rauff, He was responsible for the killing of 100,000 people which include Jews, polish and Germans with disabilities. He constructed mobile gas chamber which was used in the German Holocaust. He was arrested by allied forces but escapes as a prisoner of war to Syria, Italy, Ecuador and Chile where he finally settled down. Water Rauf was arrested in Chile in 1962 and was later released as Pinochet declined to Extradite him to Germany for trials, he died in 1984, this Man actually escaped karma.

Hitler would have won the war if he had listened to his generals.
