“a despotism which pressed for war by enslaving justice and freedom through terror, corruption, faithlessness, lies, and disregard for the most sacred human rights; which initiated war against the mightiest nations, violating international agreements, waged it with numberless and unparalleled cruelties, and by this criminal madness delivered the German people into inexpressible misery and its beautiful country into horrible devastation.”

“The almost universal attitude shown and explanation given by the war crimes defendants was that they were caught in Hitler’s web, unable to extricate themselves. They said they were obliged under coercion of orders — without any alternative but execution or suicide — to carry out their assignments. Only a few defendants, exhibiting courage and character, somehow managed to remove themselves from those infamous assignments. Nothing too serious happened to them, proving that escape was possible for those who really had the character and desire to put humanity and decency above personal security at any price. The seven sentenced to imprisonment in Spandau gaol were not among the courageous few.”
