  • The Injustice of the Nuremberg Trials

    The Nuremberg Tribunal of 1945-46 u the most spectacular judicial
    enterprise in history u was meant to prove that the defeated German
    regime had been one of unique and monstrous deceit, rapaciousness and
    evil. But in fact the Tribunal dispensed not justice, but injustice.
    The four Allied powers that organized and ran it were themselves
    guilty of some of the very same crimes they accused the German
    defendants of having committed. The Tribunal operated on the basis of
    oex post factoo law created after the fact expressly for the occasion,
    and which the Allies applied only to the defeated. The hangings of
    German leaders ordered by the Tribunal were little more than murders
    glossed over with a veneer of makeshift, hypocritical pseudo-legality.

    I suspect that there may be a few in Germany that wish these people
    were back to clean up the mess that is modern Germany with all the
    muslim immigration that has screwed the country.
