The Nuremberg trial’s double standard was condemned by an editorial in the British weekly The Economist:
…Among crimes against humanity stands the offence of the indiscriminate bombing of civilian populations. Can the Americans who dropped the atom bomb and the British who destroyed the cities of western Germany plead “not guilty” on this count?
Crimes against humanity also include the mass expulsion of populations. Can the Anglo-Saxon leaders who at Potsdam condoned the expulsion of millions of Germans from their homes hold themselves completely innocent?…
The nations sitting in judgment [at Nuremberg] have so clearly proclaimed themselves exempt from the law which they have administered.

I just started reading “Germany’s War” and I was already familiar with a lot of what John
Wear has written here, but it still astounds me of all the evil actions our two countries (UK & USA) committed against the German people and THEY ARE STILL GETTING AWAY WITH IT TODAY ! Move up to the 21st Century and you see the same process now taking place against North Korea, Syria, Russia, and already completed against Libya and Iraq. If that isn’t war crimes, what in the heck is ? The Tribe is on the attack again, but using our kids to do their dirty work, while “they” sit on the sidelines and count the fiat paper garnered from financing the wars. How do they get away with it again and again and again without the people catching on ? Oh, it is Plank Ten of their Communist Manifesto !

I would not give North Korea a free pass here. China uses that regime to test American resolve.
