Nowadays, Argentina remenber the differences between people with a officials have led to fame Simon Wiesenthal Center to announce a final campaign to locate elderly war criminals hiding in South americas mean an operation last chance. "The natural tendency is to be sympathetic towards people after they reach a certain age, but these are the last people on earth who deserve sympathy," said Efraim Zuroff, the center of the top Nazi hunter. The Wiesenthal Center Nazi hunters have resulted in hundreds of war criminals to justice since the end of World War II, and South americas has always fertile ground: the permissive standards of immigration after the war allowed many Nazis to avoid prosecution in Europe and create new identities in the south americas. Some Third Reich's most infamous names ended up in countries like Argentina, where the government of President Juan Per Is No Aided Nazi war criminals fleeing postwar Europe and the Nuremberg trials.
Besides, The Wiesenthal Center hopes a forthcoming that will include Aribert Heim, an Austrian-born doctor wanted to kill hundreds of prisoners at the Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria lethal operations conducted without anesthesia. Heim has a daughter in Chile y se cree by Zuroff and others of being alive, either in Chile or Argentina. Although the family has stated that Heim is dead, the German authorities have discovered a bank account with more than $ 1.5 million that could be claimed by their children if they were to offer proof of his death. They have not done so, and now, in the belief that the account would remain finance Heim, Germany has created a special task force to track him. "There is now a prize of EUR 310000 on her head - 130,000 offered by the German government, another 130000 offered by us, and this July the Austrians added another 50,000 euros," said Zuroff. But even if Heim is trying him in court could prove difficult if not impossible. The extradition process can take years. The Wiesenthal Center of leaders met last week with government officials in Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Uruguay to advocate for cooperation in case of any war criminals are. Such cooperation has been spotty in the past. In Argentina, researchers and human rights groups have long tried to make the government to release immigration records and archives, in his view could detail Per Is No aid efforts actively to the relocation of Nazis to Argentina .
in adition, the government of the Secretariat of State Intelligence, known as Sid, has not released other documents that investigators believe exist and could shed light on a period that many Argentines consider a shameful chapter in the history of the country. "Sid denies having documents relating to the Division reports that the office is operating Per Is No steps of the office," said Sergio Widder, who heads the Wiesenthal Center's office in Buenos Aires. "The truth is that this response is not credible." Why No remains an icon in Argentina, and his movement still dominates the country's policy. UKI Goni, a journalist who has written two books on the links of Argentina with the Nazis, said that some Argentine politicians do not feel address the issue. "The biggest Peronists have a really hard time dealing with him, but the younger ones, especially those who grew up during the military dictatorship here, are more willing to accept Per n Do was not a demigod," said Goni. In 2005, for example, the Argentine government finally acknowledged and repealed a secret order prohibiting Jews fleeing the Holocaust to enter Argentina. Goni learned of the order through his grandfather, who was one of the diplomats that forced Argentines "Directive 11" in the 1940's. "I think there is a chance they might find someone who is still alive," said Goni. "There is a slim last chance."
To concude, in Argentina the most famous criminals are people who have nazi culture. They are murders and influence with their ideas. they choose this country because they want to escape for eropean cop.
