Nuremberg trials, 21 Nazis to learn fate at end of 10-month trial (partial newsreels)

Newsreels were about the only moving footage of World War II. No TV then in homes, no computers on which to watch videos.

These were shown before the movies. A piece of history, poor quality film, but viewable.

If you remember these times, even a brief childhood memory...you know they were beyond humanity.

1. Y'know, Benjamin Ferencz, who put away several of these officers, said Bush should stand trial.

He thinks that if Saddam should stand trial for war crimes, then George W. Bush should also be put on trial as well for the sake of fairness. He was a Nuremberg prosecutor. He must've been young when he put those Nazi officers away because he lived long enough to see the day the US would elect a thug who ended up committing the same supreme crime of aggressive war that Adolf Hitler committed when he invaded Poland.

2. I did not know that..Amazing, he must have been young.

If you click the You Tube link beside the video I posted, the source...there is some unbelievably fascinating stuff there about the Nazis. There is a video of the Nuremberg rally in the late 30s I think. Hitler is reviewing his troops, and there are many.

A terrible time in our history. I am afraid they might not be appropriate to post here. The rally was one of the largest events in history, and the scariest.

On edit, be careful of some of it there...it is questionable.
