(Reuters) - Germany is seeking extradition of an 89-year-old Pennsylvania man in connection with the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Jewish men, women and children at Nazi concentration camps, a U.S. judge said on Wednesday.
Johann Breyer was arrested by U.S. authorities on Tuesday at his home in Philadelphia on allegations that he served as a Nazi SS guard at the Auschwitz and Buchenwald camps.
Germany has issued a warrant for his arrest, U.S. Magistrate Judge Timothy Rice said at Breyer's appearance in U.S. District Court in Philadelphia.
German authorities are charging him with aiding and abetting the deaths of 216,000 Jews, a figure arrived at by estimating the survival rate of prisoners packed into 158 trains that arrived at Auschwitz between May and October 1944, according to documents.
Please every single citizen remaining in the Greater German Reich became a citizen of the Federal Republic of Germany or the German Democratic Republic. It's not like it's some foreign country where every single person who worked for the Nazis mysteriously disappeared and was replaced with brand new Germans. They are all still there. It's silly going after some random low-ranking guard. Go after the true war criminals. Except they are probably all dead by now.
ze Germans are coming!
