Repost: The lessons of Nuremberg

Just in case you haven't see this, it is a must read for us now.

For the younger among us who are further away, in history, from the Nazi arrocities, this is a good start. Remeber that content does not matter as much as process. Just subsititute Arab for Jew, liberal for communist...well, you get my drift.

Consortiumnews.com:

"Just over six decades ago, the first Nuremberg Trial began. On Nov. 21, 1945, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson opened the prosecution of 21 Germans for initiating a war of aggression and for the crimes which flowed from this act. Now is a good time to reconsider some of the history and issues involved in this momentous trial in the light of the invasion and occupation of Iraq."
