Nazi-hunter Wiesenthal dies at 96
Simon Wiesenthal survived the Nazi death camps of World War II
Holocaust survivor and Nazi-hunter Simon Wiesenthal has died in the Austrian capital, Vienna, aged 96.
He was credited with helping to bring more than 1,100 Nazi war criminals to justice in the decades after the genocide of the Jews in World War II.
They included Adolf Eichmann, an architect of the Holocaust, and Franz Stangl, commandant of the Treblinka and Sobibor death camps in Poland.
His death was announced by officials at the US-based Simon Wiesenthal Center.

Probably there wasn't much mission left for Wiesenthal and so I hope he can now rest...
Unfortunately there are many more alike missions left and everyday more are born... welcome to humanity...
