There is no state above sovereignty

A Trial of a Victor Germany is a sovereign country. How can the United States judge Germany on a human level? The experience of the Jews in World War II was indeed unfortunate, and what Hitler did was truly outrageous, but the United States could not go to Germany as an equal and sovereign state, and there was no jurisdiction between equals. As for the official behavior during the Nazi era, it is impossible to say whether it is legal or not. They were legal under the laws of the day, and that's history. Germans can only redeem themselves, there is no state above sovereignty, procedure is paramount, and there is law. The law is not retroactive.

    In class, a very lovely teacher. A film that makes people think a lot may be used to write a paper.

    1. If the Axis of Evil finally wins, it will be nothing more than the translocation of the plaintiff and the defendant. What is justice? Justice is in the hands of the victor. 2. The most shocking scene is the real concentration camp documentary in the courtroom, and then when the camera turns, the technical issues of how to massacre millions of people are discussed in the cell. Ironically, everyone is emphasizing their own ignorance, their own innocence. 3. The Nuremberg Trials and the Twelve Angry Men? There is no need to compare, the former is a big drama, restrained and restrained, gradually getting better, and the group pairing adds color to the actor. The latter is a typical back room group play, which is about the conflict tension throughout. Just personal preference.

Judgment at Nuremberg quotes

  • Mrs. Bertholt: Men like Janning, my husband and I, we hated Hitler. I want you to know that. And he hated us. He hated my husband because he was a real war hero - and the little corporal couldn't tolerate that. And he hated him because he married into nobility, which was my family. Hitler was in awe of the nobility, but he hated it. That's why it's so ironic, what happened.

  • Mrs. Bertholt: What did he know of the crimes they cited him for? He was placed on trial with the other military leaders. It was part of their revenge. The victors always take on the vanquished. It was political murder.
