Adolf Eichmann, Jr., the second son of the Nazi war criminal who was executed in Israel for his role in the annihilation of 6,000,000 Jews, proclaimed himself the leader of the “Argentine Nazi Party” which, he said, belongs to a “world union of National Socialism.”
Addressing a press conference on the occasion of the second anniversary of the death of his father, the young Eichmann, clad in a Nazi-style uniform and wearing a swastika armband, said that his father had dedicated his life to fighting for all those who were “bleeding under the Jewish-Zionist yoke” and was “assassinated by an unscrupulous people damned by humanity for many centuries.”
Declaring that his movement had nothing to do with the neo-Nazi Tacuara or Guardia Restauradora Nacionalista parties, Eichmann said his ideology consists of “putting an end to capitalistic exploitation.”
