ANDREAS R. On 14 November 1945, the proceedings of the International Military Tribunal at Nürnberg (Nuremberg) were opened.
For the epoch-making International Military Tribunal at Nürnberg, which lasted for nine months, members of the Tribunal were selected from among the four large victor nations: Britain, France, the U.S.A., and the USSR.
With emphasis on the actions of the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg, such orientation will necessitate locating the foundations of the war trials, outlining a history of attempts at humanizing warfare, including the drawing of inferences from the development of international relations between the wars, and touching on the main criticism of the trials.

 FAURISSON 4/4 at the Zundel Trial (1988)
Pearson suggested to Faurisson that the International Military Tribunal drew a clear connection between the activities of the Einsatzgruppen and the plan to exterminate the Jews of Europe and that this was totally consistent with the position taken by historians today.
Pearson suggested they were the steps referred to by the International Military Tribunal, the process commencing with the fourth point of the National Socialist party [programme] and the steps of removing the legal rights of the Jews, such as removing them from professions.
Faurisson agreed that the American tribunal in the Dachau case never convicted anybody of participating in mass gassings: "Already at that time they had silently rectified the story of Dachau, of course." Faurisson pointed out, however, that there were many testimonies and even an official report on the gassings in Dachau.

 THE DACHAU GAS CHAMBERS
Although the administrative authorities at Dachau, some famous prisoners and many historians are quick to point out that the large gas chamber at the camp was never used for homicidal purposes, there is at least some evidence to the contrary.
Rascher remained in Dachau conducting "medical experiments" until early in 1944 when he was arrested, ostensibly for assisting his wife in the kidnapping of infants.
No matter in what manner the tens of thousands of unfortunate people in Dachau lost their lives, they were murdered as surely as if they had been placed in a gas chamber and asphyxiated with hydrogen cyanide gas.

 Ilse Koch was convicted by an American Military Tribunal at Dachau
She was convicted by a panel of 8 military judges on the charge of participating in a "common plan" to violate the Laws and Usages of War, but she was not convicted on the specific charge of ordering human lamp shades to be made from the skin of tattooed prisoners.
Her trial before the American military tribunal had only covered crimes committed between January 1942 and April 1945, and even then, only crimes against civilians and military personnel of the Allied countries had been included in the charges.
A German court found Ilse Koch guilty of one count of incitement to murder, one count of incitement to attempted murder, five counts of incitement to severe physical mistreatment of prisoners, and two counts of physical mistreatment, and in January 1951 she was again sentenced to life imprisonment.

 Untrue Confessions   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Since the Dachau show trials did not directly involve the supposed extermination of the Jews, holohoaxers have not cited "evidence" from them in support of their extermination claims; they now like to smugly insist that the barbaric actions surrounding these phony trials are irrelevant to their holocaust contentions.
Since the administrating agency at Dachau, the WCB, was deeply involved in Nuremberg, the Dachau show trials exemplify exactly the caliber of the individuals that were behind the operation of the Nuremberg show trials as well.
In fact, chief prosecutor Robert H. Jackson addressed the tribunal, claiming that the proceedings were only a continuation of the war on Germany by other means, and that they were not bound by any of the limitations traditionally imposed on normal court proceedings.

Obviously, their foreign objectives, which were nothing less than to undo international treaties and to wrest territory from foreign control, as well as most of their internal program, could be accomplished only by possession of the machinery of the German State.
International law is not capable of development by the normal processes of legislation, for there is no continuing international legislative authority.
The fact is that when the law evolves by the case method, as did the common law and as international law must do if it is to advance at all, it advances at the expense of those who wrongly guessed the law and learned too late their error.
