1. He was kidnapped by a gang which held him till Hitler's birthday. Then killed him and chopped him up

....

[Bluebear]

2. Oh my good heavens.

[Solly Mack]

3. Sick fucks

Depraved, hate-filled fucks.

[breadandwine]

4. In WWII there were millions of them.

...

[Behind the Aegis]

5. Disgusting on two levels.

The obvious and the mathmatical.

[lonestarnot]

6. Can't go there, but why 10? Any special significance in 10?

[Raksha]

13. 10 is a significant number in Jewish mysticism

because it's the number of the sephirot, or spheres in the kabbalistic Tree of Life. But why that would have any significance to a Nazi is beyond me. It's just a connection I flashed on when I first heard the story.

[breadandwine]

14. That's correct. The 10 sephiros.

I suspect the Nazis did it merely because 10 is a round number and the world uses base 10.

[Hannah Bell]

15. that's interesting. i could develop a conspiracy theory around that.

but other numbers must also have significance, right?

is there something in particular about 10 that would somehow relate to murder?

[Vickers]

7. "news sources reported that Misinzov (the victim) himself was involved in organized crime"

:shrug:

Might just be gang violence?

[breadandwine]

12. That might be a distortion.

He came from an unreligious background but had become religious, a "baal teshuvah" - master of return or repentance. It might be that those reports refer to his life before he got back into his Jewish roots. It may be he was in the process of cleaning up his life.


The obvious question is, if this only had to do with organized crime, why did they hold him until Hitler's birthday and then kill him then?

[Warren DeMontague]

8. Ugh.

Just ugh.

[amborin]

9. horrific!

just depraved and truly evil

[entanglement]

10. There have been many murderous racist attacks in the former Soviet states. This is sad but not

surprising, given the resurgent Nazism and neo-fascist movements there. Google Russia hate-crimes and be prepared to be sickened.

[rockymountaindem]

11. Ugh

No words for that.

[malaise]

16. Sickening

Throw away the keys.

[LeftishBrit]

17. Horrible.

To hell with all neo-Nazis.

[BlueIris]

19. LeftishBrit, I am so happy you are still with us.

As I mentioned once before, I totally thought you left us for another website.

[BlueIris]

18. That is just awful.

I have a hard time comprehending such a crime.
