Operation paperclip moved tens of thousands of Nazis from Germany to the United States. The Nuremberg trials were a show trial. The Nazis were the victors in World War II. They took over the United States.

I agree with other commenters here. The Nuremberg trials were largely performative. They were needed at the time to show the people that 'justice must be done' - the people expected it and they were happy with the ritualised performance whereby the villains were ostensibly held to account. A moral ethical medical code was born of the Nuremberg trials, which shone brightly on paper but which was promptly ignored by all governments in 2020. At Nuremberg, the powers that be fried the smaller fish generally. The bigger fish set up shop elsewhere and started planning the next stage of the Third Reich - the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

We no longer expect justice to be done because we have been conditioned not to expect it. But we have not been so conditioned that we, the people, will not DEMAND it and ensure that it is done, by ourselves if necessary, rather than by our feckless, corrupt, complicit leaders. It just takes enough people willing to stand up and say: "We want REAL Nuremberg trials this time, not show-pieces".

No nobody will be punished because the small group of men who own the Fed and run the world... want this.

And nobody dares push back on them

"I care not what puppet is placed on the throne of England to rule the Empire, ... The man that controls Britain's money supply controls the British Empire. And I control the money supply." Nathan Rothschild https://twitter.com/KirbySommers/status/1567945974537936897

“Once a nation parts with the control of its currency and credit, it matters not who makes the nation’s laws. … Until the control of the issue of currency and credit is restored to government and recognized as its most sacred responsibility, all talk of the sovereignty of parliament and of democracy is idle and futile.” — Mackenzie King, Canadian Prime Minister 1935-1948.

"I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the civilized world no longer a Government by free opinion, no longer a Government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a Government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men." - Woodrow Wilson, after signing the Federal Reserve into existence

“Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.” ― Woodrow Wilson

“The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. …We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of.” – Edward Bernays – Propaganda

I am even so sure of what happened to Nuremberg now. I am not so sure of anything. Did they just throw a few under the bus to appease the masses ?

So many questions about history having lived through all the lies now.

Unfortunately, I agree with you. As the experience of Renier Fuellmich and other lawyers has shown, the International Criminal Court is completely compromised. There is nobody watching the watchmen.

Very much the conclusion that was abundantly clear to me back in April.

Too many villains and all of them are under the employ of the global nodes of power.

(Sorry for the spam, Joel)

I disagree.

Russia can and will conduct justice when she is ready

We abide by law

And Russia decidedly ain't Germany, she won't lose

World War 2 never ended and Nuremberg was a show trial. We may get another show trial.

There will be a Nuremberg- just in 50 years, when the public conspirators are too old or dead to be prosecuted and/or the new world order is in operation. It can't be now because there is no clear cut "villian". Every single person believed to be responsible can deny knowledge of certain parts. None, but the witnesses (us), have the full scope view. This will become "the great terrible". Something that will be bogeymanned, or parable for next generations. Like the great flood.

The fallout is incalculable and is/will be too mch to bear for a great portion of humanity but humanity will continue, mother nature does not do annihilation. She breaks down to rebuold, recreate. We are part of that cycle. We always have been.

So live, love, learn and build local. You'llbe surprised at how many of "you" there are around.🤗🙏

TL;DR: The Nazis weren't gonna Nuremburg themselves.

That's excellent insight about the toxic hope cycle, how we need the resilience, patience and energy to endure over time. A lot of people are in denial right now, acting like nothing happened and perhaps thinking things are back to normal. On the other side, it can be tempting to hope that the next truth bomb is going to be what finally wakes people up and ends the abuse with justice. It looks like we are in for the long ride. There won't be true healing until the recovery after it's over. For now, we can only mitigate the damages and set the boundaries that protect ourselves as much as possible. Connecting with like-minded allies is also important for staying strong and sane.

There is no “leader” or politician coming to save you. It’s up to us. Period.

Mmm. I heard Nuremberg described in recent months as a local kangaroo court.....

The scale is the problem.

I like your visual tiger ride analogy..

And this is why I believe revolution is coming. In the absence of Nuremberg the people will revolt. Revolutions always occur when corruption in government and public services reaches a certain point. And we are at that point so it’s a matter of more and more anger building until it is triggered
