In this article, we examine the specific case of former Nazi concentration camp boss Karl Linnas. Clark joined Pat Buchanan and Baltic-American groups in trying to abolish the Office of Special Investigations, or O.S.I.
What especially infuriated the ultra-right winger Pat Buchanan, and the ultra-right wing Baltic-American groups, was that the O.S.I. cooperated with authorities in the Soviet Union who were trying to bring these Nazis to justice. Matters came to a head when the O.S.I. tried to deport Karl Linnas, wanted by the Soviets for mass murder in Estonia during World War II. Ramsey Clark argued against the O.S.I. because, he claimed, hunting Nazi war criminals was *wrong on principle*: "Regenerating hatreds"? RAF Benevolent Fund - Repaying the debt we owe.
