Simon Wiesenthal Dies
A hero's journey ends:
PARIS (AFX) - Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal, who died in Vienna today aged 96, was lauded across the world as a 'tenacious' fighter who kept alive the cause of justice for victims of the Holocaust.A Holocaust survivor who lost scores of relatives to the World War II Nazi death camps, Wiesenthal was remembered as a man who pursued the perpetrators to all corners of the globe with an unrelenting tenacity.
'He was the conscience of the world,' Aver Shalev, the director of Israel's Holocaust memorial, said in Jerusalem.
'The Jewish people and all of humanity owe a lot to him because he acted systematically and very strongly ... He will be remembered as a symbol for the Jewish and human conscience, the need to protect moral values.'
Wiesenthal helped bring more than 1,100 Nazi criminals to justice including Adolf Eichmann, the mastermind of Hitler's 'Final Solution,' who was tracked down by Israeli agents in Argentina in 1960.
