On This Day — August 17, 1960 Less than three months after Israeli agents seized Adolf Eichmann in Buenos Aires, Argentine Nazis answered with bullets. A group of young neo-Nazis from the Tacuara movement ambushed Jewish students leaving school. They opened fire, shouting “Viva Eichmann!” A 15-year-old Jewish boy, Edgardo Trilnik, was shot and wounded. Eichmann had lived openly in Argentina for a decade. When the Jews of Israel finally captured him, local Nazis treated it as a personal insult. They went after the nearest Jews they could find. The same ideology that helped murder six million still had defenders willing to pull the trigger on a Jewish teenager in broad daylight.
