Well it was victors hypocrisy at its best. By the same rules Stalin would have hung from a tree. The funny thing is they put Karl Donitz on trial for his unrestricted submarine warfare when the allies employed the same tactics. It is also worth noting that both France and Britian delcared war on Germany and thus STARTED the battle of France and Britian as well as North Africa. And lets not forget about the Soviet POW camps or their mass rape (not just German but other females as well) . So things are not as black and white as most people think.
This being said the Nuremburg Trials should not have even have taken place. It was a complete waste of time, money and brain drain. Most of the people who where on trial should have just been taken out and shot. It was clear that almost every bozo on trial was as guilty as sinned. It didn't take Sherlock Holmes, the hardy boys or a forensics expert to solve this so called "mystery". It was 100% assured that most of these clowns were guilty of the crimes for which they were charged.
