"Huh??? Guess all those trials of the Nazi's for war crimes wouldn't happen in today's world?? An I missing something or is this BS like I think it is?"
The Nazis had lawyers, proper charges and public trials. Better than they deserved but it wasn't about them but about the rule of law and human rights.
Sorry - reading thru the antihistamine induced fog -- I don't think I'm getting your point.
Don't get me wrong, I have no sympathy for the Nazis, and am happy most of them were punished, just never thought those trials were anything but legalized lynchings.
In the end, it really didn't make any difference since they could have been tried by post war German governments and executed for such things as murder instead of made up charges like "waging aggressive war".

Um, not so much. The TOP Nazis had trials. The vast majority of Nazis were not tried. And particularly nasty Nazis of lower rank were often taken from British POW camps and executed. Without, I might note, benefit of a trial at all.
