Nuremberg

As we are watching the movie "Nuremberg" which semi-fictionally portrays how the trials of the Nazi war criminals took place in Nuremberg, Germany. As I watch the movie I am shocked to discover more and more about the horrendous crimes that the Nazi's committed. What shocks me the most is that they seem to have no remorse for the actions that they have done, they continuously say that they "were only doing as we were told." As far as I can see, the war criminals are basically incriminating themselves because the lead prosecutor, Robert Jackson was able to feed into them the correct arguments. Along with being fed their death wish, the video that was presented of how the death camps were run was some of the most gruesome and disgusting evidence. The video pretty much sealed the fate of anybody connected to the creation of the death camps. Although the prosecution is doing a very good job at leading the trials, Hermann Goring, pretty much Hitler's right hand man has been able to keep the prosecution on their toes and also boost the morale of the other defendants. Over all I think that this video has really opened my eyes to the true facts of the Holocaust and also of the justice that was served out to those people that committed such horrible crimes. If anybody is looking to know more about the proceedings that took place at the Nuremberg trials but does not want to watch a documentary I would definitely recommend this movie, it presents the facts in a way that keeps your attention.
