Escaping justice in Nuremburg isn't just extremely difficult, it's rocket science
So accurate only a few will get the sense.
That’s why Speer was acquitted, he was a genius
@@Falloutfrank49 And Warner Von Braun got away due in part, to his genius
@@Limosethe yeah he was seen as valuable to the United States

This trial happened an 8 minute walk away from my home. The building looks the same to this day, now a museum to remember the trials.
Very impressive been there couple years ago.
I would love to go metal detecting in some of those old battlefields! Can I come over? I’ll buy you dinner!
Cool man get really high and go vibing.
We can never forget.
I visited the Zeppelin field at Nuremburg a few years ago. Pretty chilling experience.
None of the defendants were filmed as verdicts were read. This is cut and pieced together which is what explains their non-reactions.
Probably
@@blessed7752 one of the biggest historical blunders if you ask me.
@@marcrigor6423 definitely it would be a pleasure to know.especially when it comes to the nuremberg trials
You can picture Goering ripping off his headphones, sitting with crossed arms while shaking his head and muttering something.
@@marcrigor6423 Indeed! It was a colossal blunder IMO. This was a key moment in history and they filmed most of the rest of the trial, so why not the verdicts?
Just think, the US prosecutor was only 27 when he was appointed to this case and he died on Saturday at the age of 103
Ben Ferencz. He wasn't the only US prosecutor. I'm thankful to him and all the others for holding these bastards accountable.
Looks like he lived too long
Extraordinary to have this on film. Even today, here in the UK, we do not allow any media into courtrooms. I wish our reportage was still as sharp and impartial.
Mostly it is a good thing. In some cases though here in the U.S. it has had adverse effects such as the prosecution, judges, or defense being put in the public eye and having themselves or their family personally attacked for doing their job.
This was a world court. Showing the world the outcome was paramount . After the war in Europe ended and concentration camps were liberated, Eisenhower ordered all military personnel not needed to tour the nearest camp and when they went home ,tell everyone what they saw . Showing the consequences of what these men did opened a lot of peoples eyes . There had been rumors about the camps but people wouldn't believe it because they thought no human could do those things to another human being. My father was part of the liberating forces at Dachau . He was put in charge of burying the countless bodies . The citizens of Dachau were forced to walk through the camp and see what had happen there. They claimed they didn't know it was going on. These are the same people who either worked at the camp or delivered supplies to the camps but somehow claimed to have not known. My father said you could smell the rot of death five miles before you got to Dachau.

@@LiterallyGodno country has true freedom of speech.
Just pray you were a rocket scientist during this trial.
Needs must. Sad, but true. Since everyone was racing to get the science, the West had to win that race. The alternative was unthinkable. Once Pandora's box was opened, there was no other choice, sadly.
@@yes2day100 true but always gotta see both sides of this ugly history so we don’t repeat it. Just how we should recognise how brutal the Soviets were during WW2 with their atrocities. Just because they were allies shouldn’t distinguish the fact they were just as bad as the Nazi’s.
@@mast3rchief536 I mean the Allies also commited war crimes during ww2 too. The firebombings, the atom bombs...we weren't exactly saints either.
@@fandangobrandango7864 well yeah, I used Russia as a prime example above but sure we had our war crimes but the Russians were just as bad as the Nazi’s, British and American forces at least had the protection of democracy to stop us from war crimes as there was heavy criticism among the British public on our military forces because we firebombed loads of civilians in which the news reported on. Russian people never had a say to speak against their war crimes and the Nazi’s brainwashed their people. But yeah history is horrible on both sides, just some more than others
The British literally starved bengal during the war and killed 3 million people and the Americans imprisoned Japanese Citizens.
I still cannot fathom how human beings could be so cruel to others. It makes me sick to my stomach.
Because they believed WW2 was instigated by members of that ethnic group.
Take a look around 2022 the same things are happening but there will likely never be trials
Its happening today, trump supporters calling people on the left NPCs or people on the left calling trump supporters MAGATS or the vaxxed calling those who can't or won't take the vaccine diseased or stupid, both sides believe they are right and would fight and destroy the other side
@@zedmanatutube So why don't they?
Look Around with your eyes open. Jesus Christ Man!!
Remember when Speer lied and begged that he was just architect. And Goering was like "lol"
Or when the radioman said "soon these men will get their just reward" and Goering was like "lol"
Hehe Goering gave no shits
@@sarahvand3628 Do you know if they ever figured out how he killed himself? Was it cyanide? I thought it was a mystery how he did it under guard but maybe I'm thinking of someone else maybe?
Edit: sorry my mistake. He took poison but they don't know how he got it.
@@johns1625 HG had previously smuggled into the prison some cyanide in a container of skin cream, which a pliable guard let him fetch.
Speer and Von Braun were just as guilty for the deaths of THOUSANDS in slave labor use. Both should have had the noose applied just as promptly. The same with the monster Hirohito at the conclusion of the Japan war crime trials. Political convenience and expediency prevailed in the need to face the other monster…Stalin.
And 80 years later humanity hasn't learned much.
Well we learned that, against all odds, we did not destroy ourselves in those 80 years
@@petercortens6019
There's still time.
While "humanity" learns at a snail's pace--if at all--the entities of evil never stop refining their methods at break-neck speed.
I think we have learned. We have since tripped up a few times, but WWII’s lessons ring on today. Ironically, it is Russia who seems to have forgotten the true lesson. China as well. The people in these countries suffered more than anyone else, but their horrible governments effectively ensured they were treated as cannon fodder and then trained them not to ask too many questions after the war ended. The parallels between Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan to modern Russia and the CCP are uncanny, as is the current geopolitical climate uncannily similar to the lead up to WWII.
We may be headed towards another one of these, unfortunately. If we survive, at least after that (presumably) there wouldn’t be anymore major dictatorships left over. Big “if” on whether we survive though.
@@allmyfriendsaredead3107 Quit the stupid fake racist crap. Nobody in the West thinks Russians are “subhuman.” In fact, I’m not even convinced you’re Western if you talk like that. Like the Germans and the Japanese and now the Chinese, Russia is a corrupt imperialist state leading its people astray for the sake of one man’s ego and a bad system. Putin and his ilk need to be stopped so that the Russian people can thrive again, and finally be our allies instead of our enemies in this idiotic continuous Cold War we’re raging. Yes, we may have to go to war with Russia and kill Russians, but it’s not out of racism or what they like to call “Russophobia.” It’s because they’re exceptionally corrupt and have no individual rights or say in their government, which leads to them invading their neighbors to try and steal their land.
@@allmyfriendsaredead3107
Corrupted humanity isn't ethnic.
Evil is borderless, and a predominance of it occupies elected office, worldwide!
Ben Ferencz, one of the prosecutors, just died a year ago. March 11, 1920 - April 7, 2023. RIP sir. And thank you.
Watching this struck close to home for me. Both of my husband's parents were taken out of Poland as slave laborers during the war.
Did they survive?
This also should strike close to home since soviets (read russians) divided Poland with german nazi and basically fed you to them; and since russians are repeating the history now in Ukraine including forcibly removing Ukrainians from occupied territories and sending them to russia and/or filtration camps and/or using them for forced labour and/or torture chambers and/or executing them etcetera... History is repeating itself here and now.
I asked Pizza Hut if I could get 6 million pizzas, they said they don’t have enough ovens
I've visited the museum courtroom, and on film, it looks so big, full of many people and upper and lower levels of furniture. In real life, it is surprisingly a small room. All the ornate wood and marble is still to be seen, and of course, the Nazi demons, allied soldiers, lawyers, judges, translators, and MP's memory still haunts the place. There is no tour of the prison cells, or back courtyard etc...
The Americans changed the courtroom in the courthouse of Nuremberg for the IMT-trial and the other Military Tribunals of the US-Army against German Nazis. After the end of the trials of the military tribunals in 1949 the German justice administration changed this courtroom into its original version. Until doday the German punishment court of the "Landgericht" and the "Oberlandesgericht" Nürnberg use this old courtroum for their trials. The prison cells of the condemned Nazis are used for the German "Untersuchungshäftlinge. The room of the American gallows for the Nazis in Nuremberg is abandonned and used only for tools of the German court administration. The Westgermans abolished the legal deathpunishment in 1949 in opposite to the USA! The Americans, British and French excecuted criminals, who had been condemned by their tribunals in Germany until 1952.

@BMW M3 GTR I couldn’t understand your second sentence, not sure if English isn’t primary (no offense if so) but I wasn’t trying to disagree, just curious as to why one would put money on “nazis not being demons” obviously they are human beings and not mythological creatures, but would you say that Nazis are bad people?
The gravity of this moment, after the endless horror of WW2 is still awe inspiring.
I think that the trial was biased and unfair
@@larsgoran9926 you gotta be joking
@@JaX-cu7hb What do you mean? In the Nuremburg trials the victims got to be the judge jury and executioner, the only trail in modern history that is like that.
@Patrick McMahon Dosn't matter, no other trail of war crimes was set up like these trails
@@larsgoran9926 Maybe because this was the first one of its kind and there was no precedent? Just saying
By hanging, they got off lightly.
They should have gassed them or frozen them to death like they did to their victims.
Well... keep in mind John Woods U.S. Army executioner, possibly purposely, botched their hangings. Not only was the drop insufficient to snap their necks cleanly, so that they strung to death, but the gallows trap door too narrow to facilitate a straight drop, and many of them sustained facial contusions as a result. Each execution took several long minutes, still too short and clean. Unfortunately Georing escaped the hangman’s noose, via a cyanid capsule, the procurement of which is still a controversy today.
The early ones often strangled, it was only after master hangman pierrepoint took over that they died quick
They should have been shot in the balls then a week later in the head.
@@rogerharvey1698 Good

The extraordinary thing is that the Defendants weren't really taking this seriously until the Americans exhibited a film displaying the conditions in the camps.
After that the Defendants visibly collapsed, hiding their eyes, or holding their heads in their hands.
Even they shocked what they actually did.
@@richiebambara3980they were shocked as they didn’t do it… it was all propaganda
Kaltenbrunner sure wasn’t. He saw those camps many times before.
@@ericsantucci6934most of them heard of it but weren’t there personally.For example,Goering was visibly shocked.
And why do you think the camps were that way? Because of the allied bombing of the transport network. They could hardly feed their own people its a miracle so many people of the camps even survived.
What I don’t understand is that people honestly believe this never happened… I really don’t understand how that could possibly be..
no one thinks this didnt happen
@@Spookykidshow There are people that do but theres not a lot of them
@@bigrat4452 Their beliefs aren't that nothing happened. They believe the numbers were greatly exaggerated and that the camps weren't just targeting at that one specific ethnic group that you're not allowed to criticize online.

This is an amazing fact
Honestly 😂
Who?
Its because the longer a case drags on the more money a lawyer makes.
Inappropriate to joke about this.
I miss the days of quality journalism when journalists reported the news clearly, stating facts without inserting their personal opinions.
there has always been propaganda and bias in media it was just less obvious lol
This is a delusional belief.
You understand this is propaganda too?
never existed. technically this is opiniated in favour of the allies
There was never a time in history where that was the case.
A funny little thing is, the son of Ribbentrop, Rudolf von Ribbentrop, lived (and died) very near to where I live. A woman who helped him with cleaning etc. (due to the old age) now also helps my Grandma :D
The president of the court did not let the cameramen inside at te timw of verdict because he knew Mr.Goering would have smiled it off with a conspicuous contempt and Alfred Joedl with a disbelief and a later indignation.Julius streicher would have ranted it out as he always used to do.
Wonder how speer reacted he must surely have been thinking death right and allegedly raeder was extremely surprised as he surely thought he was gonna meet the noose
I assume hans frank arthur seyss inquart and frick took it with a pinch of salt keitel and kaltenbrunner were probably dissapointed
Ribbentrop was probably pretty sad and Rosenberg and sauckel were probably scared shitless

@@cysigh11 every country took ex nazis to work for them. The US and USSR took the most. US brought back about 1,400 “scientists”. But that’s what they tell us
Well they judged a lot of people, just not in this trial. When Waffen SS divisions were captured by the British and Americans they were all put on small trials if their division had been involved with any war crimes. Many high ranking nazi officials took their own life and many escaped to South America through the Catholic Church. If you judged every killer, millions would be on trial. But instead the rule was for people on trial was that if they were not in a position to deny their orders then they were not guilty, the allies gave an example as hitler ordered Rommel to execute any British tank commanders they capture but Rommel burnt the note and refused the order- therefore if Rommel was still alive he would be trialed not guilty.
@@tbnthompson The Soviet Union didn't take Nazi party members though, compare that to some of the ones the US 'rehabilitated' through Operation Paperclip

@Robin Spence we have a completely different society though. Democratic republics are breeding grounds for corruption. Look at all that’s going on now.

@@greenmountainbrownie6473 that's the thing, people talk about it but most say lies about it by being ignorant or simply trying to influence others
You people are already thinking this was accurate
The winners write the history. But many of these men on trial were deeply guilty, of breaking any reasonable code of human behavior.
the winners had already written western history a century in advance before ww1 sarted
A lot of these men, possibly all of them wouldn’t have been tried if they won.
There’s actually an example of one solider on trial for shooting stranded allied sailors at sea. The reason he got off was that he pointed that the US had done the exact same thing in a documented event years prior with no punishment. The charges were lessened only so the US didn’t look hypocritical

This gives me chills. Many war criminals, only few caught and found guilty, millions of civilian deaths, many unheard true stories and Justice is selective. World is a bizzaro world until we realize.
This is not "justice" this is victors justice.
The Soviets have also murdered millions, yet they are represented as one of the judge's.
The same applies today. If you are the victor you will never face a court of law.
@@Infernal460 that's a great perspective, and also true.
@@Infernal460 the nazis tried to wipe out a whole race and take over the world… it is definitely justice

Those were not ''russian members of the Tribunal'' but SOVIET ones. Soviet Union consisted of MANY nations who comprised the biggest part of soviet army and who bore the burdern of war. Yet their contribution is eradicated even in this sentence ''russian members'' as if soviet union was only russia.
People associate the Soviet Union with Russia because these other nations celebrate their independence from Russia till today. Most of these other nations didn't want anything to do with Soviet Union till today. So, shouldn't Russia take all the credit? When its Russia that is always proud of thr Soviet Union and long for it.
So many escaped justice after the war. Many of the soldiers that committed mass murder like the ones in the Einsatzgruppen were able to blend back into Germany at wars end. Many of the guards at the death camps also escaped justice, so many with blood on their hands never got tried and punished, so so many.
It is like that with everything in life. Every time you want something greater than your peers there are some consequences that comes with it. In this case it's the difference between being a simple soldier or a high rank officer. You will have nice rooms, better pay, you can decide for your actions but when something bad happens you are the one that will pay for it.
Lt. Calley is just chilling nowadays, and countless Allied soldiers/commanders from WW2 who did far worse never even saw courts martial. Chuck Yeager is actually a celebrated hero! Sometimes people just get off easy and will only face judgement after death.

the term denazification was coined at this time, they tried to programme this on millions of people it did not work, because it became an impossible task. I won't profess to know the answer in situations like this other than to feel Mandela got close with his 'Truth and Reconciliation policy'. In the end we had to let go of pursuing 'justice'. The trials effectively became a symbolic aspect as many of the top Nazis as could be rounded up and shown to the world. They would have been better off taking their own lives as Hitler did, but were too cowardly and arrogant to do so. Nothing much has changed because new generations come along and repeat the same actions and mistakes, man far from being the most intelligent species on the planet is quite stupid when all placed together.

@@basedzoomer8240 punished for being high ranking nazis and their crimes. The majority of them got away. Nazi doctors who did human experiments in the concentration camps for example, continued working as doctors in Germany and Austria like nothing happened. Ex SS who went to become police officers, professors at University, etc.
There are many examples.
In 1952 the communist North-Korea and Mao`s Redchina invaded South-Korea supported by the USSR. Only the USA defended South-Korea. Therefore America needed even support of some criminal German Nazis, like Generaloberst Franz Halder, Generalfeldmarschall Erich von Manstein, SS-General Six, who was condemned to death by hangig for murder in the USSR and was pardonenned and released.

@@brunodesrosiers266 Do you really watch mark felton
@@brunodesrosiers266 yes, they were from an Estonian SS division. Many of them were allowed to emigrate to the US after the trial, others were re-settled in other countries in the West.
Amazing how Goering was able to sneak a cyanide capsule into his cell somehow and was able to escape the hangman's noose.
Yeah but he still died, cyanide isn’t exactly pain free either
Cyanide death is considered worse than a hanging
@@chuckschickbaldtacos yes so I’ve heard it’s like the strongest body spasm you break your own back pretty much. At least it is quick though
And now he stands waiting to face his Creator, King of Kings, Jesus Christ. This will be the final judgment.
@@chuckschickbaldtacos I think the reason goering didn't want to be hung was because it seemed disrespectful and he thought that he should go out like a soldier and die by firing squad when he was told he would be hung he committed suicide
Most of the brilliant scientists from that era lived among us.

SUSSY IMPOSTERS!!!!!!!
Among us?!?!?

What role did Rudolf Hess really play, because my recollection is that he was imprisoned in the UK, and there has not been evidence of him participating in atrocities. But I may be wrong!
Officially he was found guilty of "crimes of peace" (waging war) and conspiracy to commit those crimes, as he was mainly imprisoned in Scotland during the time the decision and enaction of the "final solution" and other abhorrent crimes were carried out.
I’m American…I played football in Brazil for two years lived in the state of Santa Catarina… I lived in the south which were white completed…I guess a lot of nazis escaped there. And many other parts of South America
Wich team!? Im brazilian.
Yes a lot of nazis escaped to here, one of the main destiny's they had. We know the big shots(Mengele, Wagner from sobibor, Stangl..) but many more unknow" came and lived untouched.
There’s a few completely German villages in Argentina. Search up “hunting hitler” they travel all over and have lots of evidence of nazis being there. Bases, homes, villages where to this day they speak German, swastikas hung all over, and the people that live there talk about their grandparents/parents and how they were hero’s and have the SS symbol from the nazis. The village is Bariloche.
Yup, Santa Catarina is full of nazis. Most of them went there, but many also went to the rest of Brazil and to Argentina. That's why there's so many people with German names in Brazil.
And they continued to join the police and army in Argentina… the fascists government welcomed them with open arms.
@@LittleKitty22 call them Germans now the time changed the generation too why the sons had to pay for the mistakes of their parents unless they are proud of their works other than bravery in war

what most offended me in the 2003 wars in Iraq and Afghanistan is that certain Republican politicians showed us, to our horror, that we are quite as capable of bloodthirsty and meaningless butchery upon a helpless people as the German people responding to Goring's declaration:
But tell the people they are in danger, drive it home to them, and tell them also that the pacificists are working hand in glove with those enemies who will destroy them.
If the people are convinced, it makes no difference the government, democratic, fascist, communist or monarchy, the leader's make all the decisions and the sheep merely obey.
I paraphrase because my 68 year old brain cannot locate the quote.
2003 war in Afghanistan? God it's like you people are allergic to history. The US *led* (not just the US) invasion of Afghanistan occurred in 2001, not 2003, in response to a little event called 9/11, when over 9,000 people were killed or injured by a state sponsored terror attack on US soil. Sure, the resulting war lasted well through 2003 (into the 2020s), but it seems like you believe the war started in 2003, which is wholly incorrect.
It was the Iraq war that started in 2003. If you think the 2003 Iraq was was 'bloodthirsty and meaningless butchery', then I feel incredibly sorry for you. Saddam Hussein was a violent dictator directly responsible for the death of at least a million people, possibly more. He was a dictator who had already showed that he was willing to use weapons of mass destruction against civilian populations through his use of chemical weapons during the Iran-Iraq war. He was a dictator who, just a decade earlier, invaded and annexed the small neighboring nation of Kuwait, butchering and killing Kuwaiti civilians based on totally unfounded claims of 'slant drilling'. While we didn't 'find' any weapons of mass destruction in 2003, we did find *MASS GRAVES,* some of which contained as many as 60,000 bodies, extensive evidence of ties to al-Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden, evidence of other war crimes, and violations of the United Nations sanctions regime leveled on Iraq between 1990 and 2003.
It's sad to see Liberal Americans falling for this propaganda crap. In 20 years, the American left will probably be waving Russian flags crying about how Putin was a savior and how America was the bad guy all along. It makes me sick.
@@JohnSmith-rq6cq The stupid is strong with this one. The war in AFGHANISTAN did not start until 2003 AFTER the use of force authorization which permitted attack on "Those who attacked us on 9/11" which the Taliban DID NOT DO, nor did SADDAM and Bush even admitted it.
What IDIOCY.
Were all countries and governments called to task for their crimes, very few seats of government would need keep the porch-light burning.

I've read a few history books and it turns out, the good guys win every time
Well, there must be something about being good.
@@user-zy9yg2eu5t no, t's being good for sure..
Only true of the world wars, which we never ended. Bad guys fully won in Russia, fully won in China. We never ended WW2. We are still fighting it today, we are just seeing the fruits of that now. They decided to re route and play a long game
You’re wrong ; winners write history
also war criminals
How the hell is it allowed to have advertisements on videos such as these. Sickens me deeply.
Your audio is too low!
and as the judgments were being read the victorious imperial powers were continuing their reign of terror over much of the Earth...
You know why they acquitted Schacht. Central banksters look out for their own.

30 million ? Either they were still counting the numbers or only including Europe.
There were hundreds of war criminals on all sides, these people were merely a few of the very worst.
There were many trials conducted in Germany by the German state after Nuremberg. If you are saying a justice system is only just if it convicts everyone who is guilty, then there has never been a justice system in human history and there never will be
Back in the days when a war of aggression was deemed the worst of crimes against humanity.
The biggest saddnes is : These Country's how call it this way did the same things , today , before and over and over again .

@@MrCmon113 yeah, it was.
@@georg4579oh well, maybe Germany shouldn’t have attempted genocide and started wars. It is what it is.
I am sure there is a recording somewhere of the courts reading out the judgment to the perpetrators. It however is in the classified category.
