Marvin Hier Quotes

Now documentary evidence is acceptable. What does that mean? If you have documentary evidence that a person served as a guard in one of the death camps and the documents have been authenticated, that is grounds to charge the person with crimes against humanity.

So in such a world, I'm afraid there will always be a need for organizations like the Simon Wiesenthal Center.
