(Clearwisdom.net) Destruction of life and conscience will never be forgotten, and the perpetrators will be held responsible for their crimes.

According to a report issued by the Associated Press on December 18, on Friday, December 17, 2004, the U.S. Department of Justice requested that an immigration judge deport an Ohio man because he was a former guard at Nazi concentration camps.

John Demjanjuk, 84 lives in Seven Hills, Ohio, and is a retired autoworker. The U.S. government claims he was an armed guard at Nazi extermination and concentration camps during World War II.

In April, the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously affirmed a lower court decision revoking Demjanjuk's U.S. citizenship on several grounds, including his willing service in an SS-run unit dedicated to exploiting and exterminating Jewish civilians in Nazi-occupied Poland. Hundreds of thousands of people were killed in these camps.

"John Demjanjuk's involvement in the infamous process by which thousands of innocent men, women, and children were gassed to death at Sobibor clearly deprives him of any legal or moral right to live in this country," assistant attorney general Christopher A. Wray of the Justice Department's Criminal Division said Friday.

Last month, after the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear Demjanjuk's appeal to restore his U.S. citizenship, his family was determined to pursue a separate appeal in the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati, seeking to prove Demjanjuk was a victim of mistaken identity.

U.S. District Judge Paul R. Matia in Cleveland ruled in 2002 that Demjanjuk should be stripped of his citizenship. The Sixth Circuit Court upheld the ruling.

A document issued on Friday by the U.S. Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security points out that Demjanjuk should be deported because he participated in the Nazi's persecution activities at the Sobibór, Majdanek, and Flossenburg camps. He also lied about his work and residence during World War II when he applied for immigration to the U.S in 1952.

Demjanjuk was an autoworker for the Ford Motor Co. in 1977 when the Justice Department accused him of being "Ivan the Terrible," a notorious Nazi guard who ran the gas chambers at the Treblinka death camp in occupied Poland during 1942 and 1943.

Also according to several, separate Clearwisdom.net reports, Falun Gong practitioners around the world have taken legal actions against the main perpetrators responsible for the persecution of Falun Gong. They have filed lawsuits in 28 countries charging Jiang Zemin and his accomplices with torture, genocide, and violations of human rights. Those who are still loyal to Jiang in persecuting Falun Gong, should pay close attention to the case of John Demjanjuk.
