Let me understand this:



1. The man was caught and imprisoned in another country for his war crimes. (If his crimes were severe he would've been given the death sentence)



2. He learned about Holocaust deniers and decided to fight that



3. Because he spoke against the Nazis, he revealed his status as an ex SS officer and he is being prosecuted again for the same crimes.



4. He was sentenced to 4 years in prison because his crimes as an SS officer now that he's 96.







At this point, he was judged by the same crimes twice and the sentence is not even that severe. He's being helping the fight against Holocaust deniers... I really don't think this 4 years of prison will help something tbh.
