Karma, that centuries old Buddist principle practised by Tibetan Buddists Monks, and adopted by Western Society Linguists, stating "What you do in the past (Usually Good Deeds), you will be rewarded one day in kind. I use it when buying lottery tickets, figuring "Hey I am a nice guy, I recycle"! Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose. Karma, like a emotionless Gambler, quietly bides her time, waiting, patiently for an opportune moment in which to show her hand. For two elderly Canadian Gentlemen, Karma has decided to cash in, "In Spades" . I guess these Two Elderly gentleman forgot Karma works both ways, when the past forces them to show their hands.

This is an excellent article: for those just tuning in, the link goes to a story about ex-Nazis who have been living in Canada... until now.

From the article:
___

"When you deal with a person like Oberlander, you send a message to
those who would today be committing war crimes, and that is that Canada
will not rest, Canada will do whatever is necessary and years make no
difference. The right thing will be done."

Dozens of war criminals have settled in Canada since the Second World War.

Following
unsuccessful attempts to prosecute a Toronto man who had participated
in the Holocaust, the government changed tactics and in 1988 began
revoking the citizenship of Nazis on the grounds they had
misrepresented themselves to immigration authorities.

Since 1977,
Canada has revoked citizenship 54 times -- seven of them in relation to
the Second World War. Some of those war criminals left Canada
voluntarily and others died but none were removed to their countries of
origin, officials said yesterday.

Geez, Jordan, I was just giving NP Readers the "Sizzle", you gave them the entire "Steak!"

But then I thought Moe, Curly, and  Larry, 3 Jews would loved to piss off Nazis, would be an appropriate setting for this piece and NP readers would have picked up on it.
