AppyPappy: People who commit crimes should be punished appropriately. Nuremberg was a kangaroo court. Judges sitting next to Russian criminals were complicit. Justice Jackson looted two grand pianos. Hypocrite.

BroJoeK: You are getting boring. Let me stoop to your level for a second. Ilya Ehrenburg is your mentor and you are a poo poo head. Does that sound convincing? I’m sure any intelligent reader would be swayed by this articulate argument.

Vehmgericht: "People who commit crimes should be punished appropriately."

Nations which commit war-crimes against humanity should also be punished appropriately, which is what Germans received, at the cost of tens of millions of Allied civilian lives.

Vehmgericht: "Nuremberg was a kangaroo court."

Rubbish -- the Nuremberg trials were infinitely more fair than any Nazi courts of justice.
They were an exercise in mercy over people who truly deserved much sterner judgments.

Vehmgericht: "Judges sitting next to Russian criminals were complicit.
Justice Jackson looted two grand pianos. Hypocrite."

Russians did not control the Nuremberg proceedings and their influence did not measurably change the outcomes.

I can find nothing to support your claim that Jackson "looted" grand pianos, though such a complaint coming from Nazis who looted everything they could is a bit rich.
I did, however find these words from Albert Speer on Jackson's opening statement at Nuremberg:

That's why I say the German people received infinite mercy at the Nurember trials, not the stern justice they had so richly earned.

Vehmgericht: "Let me stoop to your level for a second.
Ilya Ehrenburg is your mentor and you are a poo poo head."

Unlike your own propaganda instructor, Goebbels, I never heard of "Ilya Ehrenburg".
Regardless, propaganda is the same, from whatever source -- first, select out only the "facts" which fit your own narrative, ignore or condemn everything which doesn't, and if no real facts fit, then invent whatever you need to make it work.

It's all the same techniques, whether it came from Goebbels' propaganda machine or today's alleged "mainstream" media.
