Brazil Documents Detail Nazi Mengele's Last Years
SAO PAULO, Brazil (Reuters) - Josef Mengele, the infamous Nazi doctor known as the Angel of Death, died in Brazil 25 years ago lonely and cash-strapped but apparently unrepentant, according to documents published this week.

Mengele's letters, diary entries and official papers archived at police headquarters in Sao Paulo and published by the Folha de S.Paulo newspaper shed light on the fugitive doctor's everyday life during his last years.

2. I thought his life ended at the slavering jaws of his own dobermans
(dobermen?) after his nefarious plot to create 99 new Hitlers was foiled.

3. Nonsense. He joined the Nixon administration, and . . .
Oops, I've said too much already.

4. I don't think Che would like being near him
even in death.

6. Yes, the article says that like him "Che died a wanted man"
Che was murdered by order of a CIA stooge. Right or wrong, he'll always be remembered as the handsome, charismatic embodiment of revolution.

Mengele died a natural death & he remains a symbol of cold-blooded evil.

5. How many "Mengeles" are blossoming in the fascist US right now
I wonder.
