LUNCH WITH SS STURMGRUPENNFUHRER OTTO SKORZENY

As a Jew I would not have gone near him. He was instrumental in helping SS war
criminals escape after the war. He may have been intelligent and likable, but
he was antisemitic. I hope his death was slow, lingering and painful.

From several sources over the years. No, I can't cite specifics. However, when
he went into the SS it was an all volunteer service where one had to be a
member of the Nazi party. He joined the Austrian Nazi party in 1930. One of the
tenets of the Nazi party is, and always has been, antisemitism. After WW2 he
worked in Spain to help SS murderers escape justice. During the 1950s he was in
Egypt assisting in anti Israel projects.

Yes, I'd say he was antisemitic. Joining the Nazi party before it was expediant
to do so tells me he was rabidly antisemetic.

That thought certainly entered my mind as I said, " Bitte darf ich der saltz
haben herr Skorzeny".

id " Otto Skorzeny".

Skorzeny doesn't sound Germanic to me, though I am not an expert. Is it
a slavic name?


Not all Germans have German sounding names.

I was well aware of all that at the time of our meeting. Skorzeny never
tried
to hide any of it as bad as it was.

Which could mean that he didn't think it was bad.


Exactly right. I think he was proud of it all.

Because he wouldn't shake Skorzeny's hand? Or because he didn't
spring on him like a panther and beat him senseless? I understand
the sentiment, but not directed on the narrator. Maybe I read it
poorly.
