By reading this book, I am less interested in the testimony of Serge Klarsfeld has undoubtedly much greater insight and delicacy of judgment that his wife Beate. And perhaps I should clarify that I have never had any spontaneous sympathy for certain methods used by Beate Klarsfeld although that former Nazis were able to live and, for some, a career unmolested by justice is obviously a scandal. However, the term "Nazi" covers a range of different realities from the "Butcher of Lyon" to mass criminals who sign deportation orders without ever leaving their desk (the famous "Schreibtischtäter") through the people like former Chancellor Kiesinger whose implications to the Nazi regime, perhaps deserve a more nuanced judgment than a slap on the ear. But it is true that neither the time nor what shines personality Beate Klarsfeld in his book were carried to a very fine judgment of history and responsibilities of each other. It was a symbolic act, the slap of the younger generation against generation of the Nazis, as she said recently in the German TV. Is that Beate Klarsfeld had and still has one thing in mind: to combat anti-Semitism and, to put it a little unkindly, make resistance twenty years after the fact. Psychological reasons have played well. It was a way to make French and clear itself of the guilt of the German people. To achieve this, she was firing on all cylinders. The example of Michel Fribourg (Continental) Beate Klarsfeld which voluntarily ready for what he has never held to force it to break its trade relations with German companies run by former Nazis, in this regard, building . This is called manipulation and lies. The contribution requested from the GDR authorities and some compromise with a regime that is not known for its exemplary democratic also casts a shadow on the shares of Beate Klarsfeld. Those who have seen and heard on German television when she was a candidate for the German presidency to "Die Linke" has seen its total lack of perspective in relation to its past actions. The book is nevertheless important because one can see the psychological mechanisms at work. Beate Klarsfeld has done the necessary work, dirty work, and she did it badly.
