After World War II many nazi hierarchs and criminals escaped Germany and went into hiding under false identities. But private or Israeli government-created groups set about hunting them all over the world, especially those who were responsible in the 'Jewish Holocaust' and were not protected by foreign governments, in order to bring them to trial. These 'Nazi hunters' were very active during the second half of the twentieth century. The neologism is a word formed by Hunting ("hunter, hunting") Nazi ("member of the National Socialist German Party"); and is used equally in the singular as in the plural.
