Kasztner, known as the Jewish Schindler, negotiated face to face with
Adolf Eichmann, rescuing 1700 Jews on a train to Switzerland, and may have
saved thousands more lives. Yet Kasztner was condemned as a traitor in his
adopted country of Israel; accused as a collaborator in a trial and verdict
that divided a nation and forever stamped him as the 'man who sold his soul to
the devil.' It was a verdict overturned by Israel's Supreme Court but too late
for Kasztner, who was assassinated by right-wing extremists in in 1957. (2008,
