Their prosecution of the Nazis was political and not based on any idea of justice. If it had been they would have ended up hanging a lot of the Allies' leadership.(June 12, 2018 at 8:17 pm)Wyrd of Gawd Wrote: Kim doesn't do anything to his people. His butt-kissing thugs do it. Anyone with a grenade could help solve the Kim problem.
And another Kim will pop up in his place. And when he does, that other Kim will execute him. Probably with a mortar round, to leave "no trace of him behind, down to his hair." And yes, that is an actual quote.

Technically, he said "Befehl ist Befehl." Strictly speaking, it's "an order's an order." It's a subtle difference and it may not mean much to the people suffering under it, but it does speak to the different way the Germans and the Anglosphere perceived it; the militarized Germans just did what they were told, and the Allies saw it as trying to weasel out of a sticky situation.
