Its a difficult issue. On one hand, he was following orders. On the other hand, he was complicit in the murder of thousands of innocent people. I believe that for the most part, the people who were following orders shouldn't be punished. Instead, the people who made the decisions should. Its not fair to punish people for following orders when disobeying them could have resulted in his imprisonment or death. I feel differently about this case, however. Despite substantial evidence against him, Demjanjuk never admited guilt or showed remorse for his actions. In the case of an unrepentant death camp guard, it is perfectly appropriate for the courts to step in.
