Italians Protest Nazi Killer
Jerusalem Post
T
he 100th birthday of unrepentant
Nazi war criminal Erich Priebke
on Monday sparked a vocal pro-
test outside the Rome apartment where
the former SS captain has been under
house arrest for the last 15 years.
Members of Priebke's legal team and a
few friends, one carrying a bottle of cham-
pagne, had to work their way through a
crowd of more than 200 demonstrators,
police officers and journalists in order to
enter the apartment for what appeared to
be a small birthday celebration.
Protesters called for the conditions of
Priebke's arrest to be toughened and for
authorities to force him to show remorse
for his crimes. They read out loud the
names of the 335 Italian civilians Priebke
is charged with killing in 1944 in retalia-

killed 33 soldiers from an SS battalion.

"Considering what this man has done,
there is no reason he should be treated
so leniently," said Barbara Pontecorvo, a
44-year-old lawyer and a member of the
Jewish community in Rome.
"Small-time criminals in Italy are treat-
ed much harsher than he is."
Tomer Kling, a 37-year-old musician
visiting Rome from Tel Aviv, said, "I came
here to demonstrate because we have to
remember the horror of what happened
so that it can never happen again."
The massacre took place on March 24,
1944, near the Ardeatine Caves outside
Rome. Adolf Hitler is reported to have
ordered 10 Italians killed for every dead
German; and so a list of 330 Italian resis-
tance members, including at least 70 Jews,
was drawn up.
