Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:04,938 --> 00:00:11,400
Your Luftwaffe, your Wehrmacht
and his Navy no longer exist.
2
00:00:11,478 --> 00:00:15,107
Your State no longer exists.
3
00:00:15,849 --> 00:00:18,716
Mr G ring,
You're a prisoner.
4
00:00:18,785 --> 00:00:21,413
And you're in prison.
5
00:00:21,488 --> 00:00:22,716
All of p !
6
00:00:30,063 --> 00:00:32,930
On November 20, 1945,
7
00:00:33,066 --> 00:00:36,661
began the first court
for war crimes of history.
8
00:00:37,404 --> 00:00:42,740
Twenty-one of the most notorious Nazis
were tried on pain of death.
9
00:00:43,476 --> 00:00:47,412
Of course we rearm.
I reopened Germany until it overflowed.
10
00:00:47,914 --> 00:00:49,404
No regrets and relentless,
11
00:00:49,516 --> 00:00:51,677
the most fanciful of them
was Hermann G ring,
12
00:00:51,751 --> 00:00:53,480
the successor chosen by Hitler.
13
00:00:53,553 --> 00:00:55,077
You knew the Fhrer.
14
00:00:55,155 --> 00:00:58,090
I would rather die ten times
15
00:00:58,158 --> 00:01:00,956
to see the sovereign
subject to this humiliation.
16
00:01:01,027 --> 00:01:03,996
Whatever happens,
the whole world will watch. "
17
00:01:04,064 --> 00:01:06,897
The trial was
a great bet of the Allies.
18
00:01:06,966 --> 00:01:10,770
At stake, there was nothing less
than the verdict of history to Nazism.
19
00:01:10,770 --> 00:01:12,639
The brutal treatment
given to these people
20
00:01:12,639 --> 00:01:13,907
It's almost unbelievable.
21
00:01:13,907 --> 00:01:15,431
I'm ready to fight.
22
00:01:15,508 --> 00:01:17,772
And if you can not
convince the court,
23
00:01:17,844 --> 00:01:20,142
I will convince the German people
24
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,011
that everything I've done
was by the great Reich.
25
00:01:25,518 --> 00:01:29,045
It would have been much faster
follow Churchill's suggestion:
26
00:01:29,122 --> 00:01:31,920
simply lead the degenerate
Go outside and shoot 'em.
27
00:01:31,991 --> 00:01:35,290
Could G ring succeed
where Hitler failed
28
00:01:35,361 --> 00:01:39,058
and, from the courtroom,
to rekindle Nazi pride?
29
00:01:39,132 --> 00:01:42,465
This witness adopted,
on the witness stand and on the rosaries,
30
00:01:42,535 --> 00:01:46,494
an arrogant and scornful posture
in relation to this court.
31
00:01:46,673 --> 00:01:50,473
Your Excellency,
Want to go to hell.
32
00:01:54,013 --> 00:01:58,450
NUREMBERG
Nazis on the seat of the ruus
33
00:02:15,735 --> 00:02:16,929
Look.
34
00:02:18,705 --> 00:02:20,798
-L he l .
-Look, G ring.
35
00:02:21,508 --> 00:02:23,567
On the day that Germany
surrendered
36
00:02:23,643 --> 00:02:27,875
Hermann G ring surrendered
36th US Division.
37
00:02:28,314 --> 00:02:32,114
Strangely, it was marked
a press conference in his honor.
38
00:02:32,585 --> 00:02:34,883
Hey marshal, smile!
39
00:02:35,588 --> 00:02:37,556
Want to walk soon,
I'm hungry.
40
00:02:37,624 --> 00:02:38,921
Thank you.
41
00:02:38,992 --> 00:02:40,619
All right, first question.
42
00:02:42,061 --> 00:02:43,653
-New York Times!
-Voc .
43
00:02:43,730 --> 00:02:46,290
When you noticed
who had lost the war?
44
00:02:47,066 --> 00:02:49,830
Very soon after
of landings in Normandy
45
00:02:49,903 --> 00:02:53,395
and the Russians break
the line of defense in the east.
46
00:02:53,473 --> 00:02:55,100
- Please, Daily Times!
-New Yorker!
47
00:02:55,542 --> 00:02:56,338
You.
48
00:02:57,544 --> 00:03:00,411
Who was responsible
the concentration camps?
49
00:03:00,547 --> 00:03:03,812
Hitler never discussed the camps
with people in my position.
50
00:03:03,883 --> 00:03:08,946
He only argued with those
directly responsible for the fields.
51
00:03:09,022 --> 00:03:11,422
-London Times!
"Here, American Forces Network.
52
00:03:11,491 --> 00:03:14,824
You know you're on the list.
of war criminals?
53
00:03:15,995 --> 00:03:17,223
No.
54
00:03:18,831 --> 00:03:20,856
This question
It surprises me a lot.
55
00:03:23,403 --> 00:03:24,870
I can not imagine why.
56
00:03:33,112 --> 00:03:35,478
Behind your public image
of playfulness,
57
00:03:35,548 --> 00:03:38,073
G ring was a reactionary Nazi.
58
00:03:42,555 --> 00:03:44,489
Obsessively loyal to Hitler,
59
00:03:44,557 --> 00:03:47,355
united, they destroyed
the German democracy.
60
00:03:51,331 --> 00:03:53,697
In power, G ring was brutal.
61
00:03:53,967 --> 00:03:58,097
He created the Gestapo,
the dreaded secret police.
62
00:04:03,676 --> 00:04:05,837
Drafted minutes
of laws against the Jews
63
00:04:05,912 --> 00:04:09,109
and led the German rearmament
conditions of war.
64
00:04:09,582 --> 00:04:12,278
G ring was commander-in-chief
from the For a A rea
65
00:04:12,352 --> 00:04:14,684
and Hitler named it Reichsmarshall,
66
00:04:14,754 --> 00:04:17,120
the highest-ranking military officer
from Germany.
67
00:04:18,958 --> 00:04:23,452
What impressed to know him
it was his attitude.
68
00:04:23,529 --> 00:04:26,692
He had a personality
dominant, striking.
69
00:04:26,766 --> 00:04:29,564
It was noticed that there was
somebody important.
70
00:04:30,603 --> 00:04:32,503
He was not like some,
71
00:04:32,605 --> 00:04:38,271
very whining, whining,
full of self-pity.
72
00:04:38,344 --> 00:04:39,902
He commanded.
73
00:04:40,913 --> 00:04:44,644
Maintained in solitary confinement,
Gring was awaiting trial.
74
00:04:45,118 --> 00:04:47,916
But for the Allies,
give you a public forum
75
00:04:48,054 --> 00:04:52,582
meant a huge risk
of him using it for Nazi propaganda.
76
00:04:53,159 --> 00:04:56,686
The prosecution urgently needed
know what he intended to do.
77
00:05:01,267 --> 00:05:03,792
I am Captain Gilbert,
your new liaison officer.
78
00:05:05,138 --> 00:05:07,834
Welcome.
Please sit.
79
00:05:11,811 --> 00:05:13,039
Please.
80
00:05:15,448 --> 00:05:18,042
I see you've already received
his indictment.
81
00:05:19,185 --> 00:05:20,584
I got it.
82
00:05:21,487 --> 00:05:23,580
There is only one small section
about me.
83
00:05:23,723 --> 00:05:30,390
Aside from this, the accusations
against us, criminals, they are the same.
84
00:05:32,165 --> 00:05:36,864
I would like to register your account
The accusations against you.
85
00:05:38,604 --> 00:05:41,903
Would you write something
for me?
86
00:05:45,445 --> 00:05:46,878
Yes of course.
87
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:18,243
'' The winner will always be the judge
and the vanquished, the accused. ''
88
00:06:24,550 --> 00:06:26,950
As for the trial,
89
00:06:28,087 --> 00:06:31,056
A political game
of marked cards,
90
00:06:32,592 --> 00:06:35,026
but I'm prepared
for the consequences.
91
00:06:36,729 --> 00:06:38,026
What are ...
92
00:06:38,598 --> 00:06:40,065
Now, let d ,
93
00:06:40,433 --> 00:06:44,028
I know that I will be hanged,
You know I'll be hanged.
94
00:06:44,704 --> 00:06:46,604
But I'm prepared to fight.
95
00:06:47,607 --> 00:06:49,871
And if you can not
convince the court,
96
00:06:50,476 --> 00:06:53,343
I will convince the German people
97
00:06:53,846 --> 00:06:59,079
that everything I've done
was by the great Reich.
98
00:07:10,196 --> 00:07:14,360
Captain Gustave Gilbert
was a Jew of Austrian descent.
99
00:07:14,634 --> 00:07:16,124
Training psychologist,
100
00:07:16,235 --> 00:07:18,533
during the war he would work
as an officer of the secret service,
101
00:07:18,638 --> 00:07:21,937
having specialized
to interrogate German prisoners.
102
00:07:22,675 --> 00:07:24,233
I had seen the Nazi cruelty
103
00:07:24,310 --> 00:07:27,302
in places like the countryside
of the Dachau concentration.
104
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,505
I wanted to find out
which led to humans
105
00:07:29,582 --> 00:07:32,016
to do what those men
made.
106
00:07:32,618 --> 00:07:34,987
The Nazi leaders were
in the prison of Nuremberg
107
00:07:34,987 --> 00:07:38,081
and that was the only place
where I wanted to be.
108
00:07:44,464 --> 00:07:45,897
The problem, for the Allies,
109
00:07:46,032 --> 00:07:49,058
was that not all Nazi leaders
were trapped.
110
00:07:50,503 --> 00:07:53,631
In Lneburg, the body lies
the most hated man in Europe:
111
00:07:53,706 --> 00:07:54,968
Heinrich Himmler,
112
00:07:55,041 --> 00:07:58,704
head of the Nazi secret police
and the violent SS troops.
113
00:07:58,778 --> 00:08:01,576
Himmler was carrying with him
tiny bottles of poison ...
114
00:08:01,647 --> 00:08:03,015
The suicide of Himmler,
115
00:08:03,015 --> 00:08:05,218
creator of the death camps
Nazis,
116
00:08:05,218 --> 00:08:07,516
was a disaster for the Allies.
117
00:08:07,587 --> 00:08:12,456
With Hitler and Gbbels dead,
G ring was the most senior Nazi.
118
00:08:15,127 --> 00:08:16,185
Let me show you something.
119
00:08:17,730 --> 00:08:20,824
With exception
of an armed attack on the prison,
120
00:08:21,367 --> 00:08:25,235
This is what keeps me going.
woke up at night
121
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,472
We found it in the middle
of G ring's jewels.
122
00:08:32,178 --> 00:08:34,578
one cartridge,
or German gauge.
123
00:08:34,647 --> 00:08:35,545
Perfectly.
124
00:08:38,184 --> 00:08:40,277
But you can open it.
125
00:08:44,123 --> 00:08:45,181
Carefully.
126
00:08:55,001 --> 00:08:56,935
Potassium cyanide.
127
00:08:57,503 --> 00:09:00,028
In quantity
to kill 12 men.
128
00:09:00,406 --> 00:09:03,398
Ampoule ampoule
regularly distributed by the SS.
129
00:09:03,476 --> 00:09:05,000
Himmler used one.
130
00:09:05,311 --> 00:09:08,576
-G ring suicidal?
"I'll tell you about G ring."
131
00:09:08,648 --> 00:09:10,983
When he arrived here,
malcuidado and smiling,
132
00:09:10,983 --> 00:09:13,144
with two bags of dihydrocodeine,
133
00:09:13,252 --> 00:09:14,554
I thought it was
a vendor of Remedies.
134
00:09:14,554 --> 00:09:15,821
Is he addicted to drugs?
135
00:09:15,821 --> 00:09:17,186
Without doubt.
136
00:09:17,523 --> 00:09:20,890
The habit comes from when he was injured
in a Nazi dispute.
137
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,291
He took drugs because of the pain.
138
00:09:22,361 --> 00:09:24,352
If you think the fat one
a big guy,
139
00:09:24,430 --> 00:09:27,092
should have seen him
before we put it on the diet.
140
00:09:28,601 --> 00:09:30,967
Our task, Captain,
141
00:09:31,037 --> 00:09:32,838
ensure that these men
be healthy
142
00:09:32,838 --> 00:09:35,500
to go to court
before the world.
143
00:09:35,575 --> 00:09:39,511
And I do not want them to come.
crazy in prison.
144
00:09:41,447 --> 00:09:45,781
A guy can go crazy
to sit in a cell
145
00:09:45,851 --> 00:09:49,617
with which some of these guys
have in the head.
146
00:09:50,590 --> 00:09:53,252
I want it to be
our eyes and ears, Captain.
147
00:09:53,359 --> 00:09:55,224
Become familiar
with the prisoners,
148
00:09:55,294 --> 00:09:57,990
please let me know regularly
about their psychological state,
149
00:09:58,064 --> 00:10:00,498
mainly from G ring.
150
00:10:01,834 --> 00:10:07,238
If we lose it,
we have no judgment.
151
00:10:09,208 --> 00:10:13,042
Nothing can happen to G ring.
152
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:15,604
Yes sir.
153
00:10:28,794 --> 00:10:30,785
Call the doctor!
154
00:10:32,531 --> 00:10:34,226
Four weeks
before the trial,
155
00:10:34,300 --> 00:10:35,358
Robert Ley,
156
00:10:35,434 --> 00:10:39,666
creator of the Nazi organization
recreation For a by Alegria,
157
00:10:39,739 --> 00:10:41,536
committed suicide.
158
00:10:42,341 --> 00:10:44,901
I was one of those responsible.
159
00:10:45,177 --> 00:10:50,638
We renounce God and,
therefore he has forsaken us.
160
00:10:59,759 --> 00:11:05,026
That can not happen any more.
161
00:11:06,866 --> 00:11:11,803
Aordem was given
and a series of measures were taken.
162
00:11:13,472 --> 00:11:17,806
Whenever the prisoners
were in the cell,
163
00:11:17,877 --> 00:11:21,040
were under constant surveillance.
164
00:11:21,714 --> 00:11:23,545
All the time.
165
00:11:23,716 --> 00:11:29,712
They could not sleep
with my hands under the covers.
166
00:11:30,222 --> 00:11:33,988
They always had to sleep
with your hands over the covers.
167
00:11:34,060 --> 00:11:39,157
And they had to sleep on their backs,
never sideways, nor witch.
168
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,579
Better this way, with him dead.
169
00:11:56,782 --> 00:12:00,912
Because I had my doubts
on how to conduct myself at trial.
170
00:12:03,155 --> 00:12:05,919
I'm sure he would
a ridiculous role.
171
00:12:10,629 --> 00:12:12,927
Do you think
What is someone calling?
172
00:12:14,033 --> 00:12:18,936
The German people seem very disillusioned.
with the Nazi leadership.
173
00:12:20,406 --> 00:12:23,000
Does not matter
what the people say now.
174
00:12:23,075 --> 00:12:25,976
The only thing
which does not bother me.
175
00:12:27,279 --> 00:12:30,715
Because I know
what they said before.
176
00:12:32,151 --> 00:12:34,745
I know how much they
they applauded and praised us
177
00:12:34,820 --> 00:12:36,685
when things were going well.
178
00:12:37,790 --> 00:12:39,815
And I'll do it again.
179
00:12:41,393 --> 00:12:43,258
Law.
180
00:12:46,332 --> 00:12:48,334
I am determined,
181
00:12:48,334 --> 00:12:51,137
determined to enter
for the history of Germany
182
00:12:51,137 --> 00:12:53,037
like a great man.
183
00:12:54,573 --> 00:12:56,097
In 50 or 60 years,
184
00:12:56,175 --> 00:12:59,144
there will be statues by Hermann G ring
throughout Germany.
185
00:13:05,284 --> 00:13:07,411
Little statues, maybe.
186
00:13:07,486 --> 00:13:09,613
But one in every German home.
187
00:13:21,867 --> 00:13:26,736
Aggressive, outgoing,
narcissistic
188
00:13:29,642 --> 00:13:33,271
Gilbert was always
in a very difficult position,
189
00:13:33,345 --> 00:13:35,313
trying to gain confidence
of those people
190
00:13:35,381 --> 00:13:37,611
and trying to advise them.
191
00:13:38,384 --> 00:13:42,844
He also provided ideas
prosecution,
192
00:13:43,455 --> 00:13:46,947
Sometimes even suggesting
lines of attack.
193
00:13:50,396 --> 00:13:55,026
A ruthless adventurer
and realistic in political science.
194
00:13:55,100 --> 00:13:57,898
Basically,
without scruples.
195
00:14:00,539 --> 00:14:04,635
It should be asked if you took into account
the lives of millions of Germans
196
00:14:04,710 --> 00:14:06,701
while preparing for war.
197
00:14:08,981 --> 00:14:12,678
So he was always
in an ambiguous position,
198
00:14:12,751 --> 00:14:15,015
at the same time trying to win
the trust of those people
199
00:14:15,087 --> 00:14:17,656
and, on the other hand,
betraying this confidence
200
00:14:17,656 --> 00:14:19,851
to whom he paid his salary.
201
00:14:25,130 --> 00:14:28,588
The prosecution was headed by the judge
of the US Supreme Court,
202
00:14:28,767 --> 00:14:30,428
Robert Jackson.
203
00:14:34,506 --> 00:14:38,169
Together with a team of lawyers
Great Britain, France and USSR,
204
00:14:38,277 --> 00:14:42,805
Jackson's goal was to destroy
the Nazis and their ideas forever.
205
00:14:46,085 --> 00:14:50,681
Jackson wanted a record
that remained in history
206
00:14:50,756 --> 00:14:52,781
of what the Nazis had done.
207
00:14:52,858 --> 00:14:58,194
He would be so irrefutably,
that everyone would accept it.
208
00:15:00,766 --> 00:15:03,963
The secondary objective, of course,
was to punish the guilty.
209
00:15:06,038 --> 00:15:06,970
Sir David.
210
00:15:07,539 --> 00:15:09,530
Jackson's stance was ambitious.
211
00:15:09,608 --> 00:15:13,772
His approach was to prove that there had been
a '' Nazi master plan ''.
212
00:15:17,283 --> 00:15:21,117
I modified the summary of the tests
concerning the charge of conspiracy.
213
00:15:26,091 --> 00:15:29,857
The British prosecutors had
a simpler approach.
214
00:15:40,472 --> 00:15:43,805
It seems that
a little longer.
215
00:15:43,876 --> 00:15:47,869
As I said, I want a court case.
against the Nazi government.
216
00:15:48,247 --> 00:15:51,410
Showing how they conspired
to hurt world peace
217
00:15:51,483 --> 00:15:53,007
and exterminate minorities.
218
00:15:53,185 --> 00:15:54,447
Oh, sure, I get it.
219
00:15:55,788 --> 00:15:59,280
Still, prove
that every Nazi act since 1933
220
00:15:59,358 --> 00:16:02,623
was part of a close-up
to start a war with Europe
221
00:16:02,695 --> 00:16:05,687
will be very difficult,
if not impossible.
222
00:16:05,764 --> 00:16:10,599
Sir David, we must tell
the whole history of the Nazi movement.
223
00:16:10,669 --> 00:16:13,137
His disloyalty and his barb rie.
224
00:16:14,039 --> 00:16:15,529
It may take months.
225
00:16:17,843 --> 00:16:19,936
We do not want to lose
the interest of the public.
226
00:16:20,779 --> 00:16:25,239
Of course, it would have been much faster
follow Churchill's suggestion:
227
00:16:25,351 --> 00:16:28,582
simply lead the degenerate
Go outside and shoot them, right?
228
00:16:37,062 --> 00:16:39,292
COMMIT THE JUDGMENTS
IN NUREMBERG
229
00:16:40,032 --> 00:16:42,364
Palace of the Justice of Nuremberg,
in Germany.
230
00:16:42,434 --> 00:16:44,536
The once sacred city
of Nazism
231
00:16:44,536 --> 00:16:46,972
becomes stage
of an event.
232
00:16:46,972 --> 00:16:50,066
Here under watchful eyes
of allied military police,
233
00:16:50,142 --> 00:16:53,543
the 20 most important members
of Hitler's band that survived
234
00:16:53,612 --> 00:16:55,011
go to trial
235
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,571
On November 20, 1945,
236
00:16:57,850 --> 00:17:01,183
the first international court
of war crimes
237
00:17:01,286 --> 00:17:03,516
began in Nuremberg.
238
00:17:17,870 --> 00:17:20,771
After three months
confinement in solitary confinement,
239
00:17:20,839 --> 00:17:25,640
all 21 defendants sat together
in a large seat of the ruus.
240
00:17:27,179 --> 00:17:30,444
This gave G ring an opportunity
to influence the other prisoners
241
00:17:30,516 --> 00:17:33,349
and lead a front
in their defense.
242
00:17:46,432 --> 00:17:48,967
I think the prosecution
should be congratulated
243
00:17:48,967 --> 00:17:50,594
by the division of the process.
244
00:17:51,770 --> 00:17:56,571
To the English, the question was
the forcible colonization of territories.
245
00:17:56,942 --> 00:17:58,569
No one is better qualified.
246
00:18:01,146 --> 00:18:03,273
And I see that the French have
247
00:18:03,382 --> 00:18:05,475
with the question of looting
of art objects.
248
00:18:06,418 --> 00:18:09,319
Now, if they have
all the world's looted art,
249
00:18:09,388 --> 00:18:11,379
I imagine they are specialists.
250
00:18:13,559 --> 00:18:15,994
The members of my team
who have observed the rhythm closely
251
00:18:15,994 --> 00:18:17,329
affirm that there is no doubt:
252
00:18:17,329 --> 00:18:20,059
G ring will try
disrupt judgment.
253
00:18:21,500 --> 00:18:22,933
One thing is certain:
254
00:18:23,635 --> 00:18:26,968
whatever happens,
the whole world will watch. "
255
00:18:31,410 --> 00:18:34,513
G ring tried to get the impression
of a jovial realist
256
00:18:34,513 --> 00:18:36,947
that, after betting high and losing,
257
00:18:37,015 --> 00:18:39,745
was staring at the thing
with sports spirit.
258
00:18:40,018 --> 00:18:43,112
His gil humor was calculated
to give the impression
259
00:18:43,188 --> 00:18:46,487
that a kind fellow like him
it could not be malicious.
260
00:18:47,793 --> 00:18:53,322
Of course, the Russians were
with crimes against humanity.
261
00:18:56,602 --> 00:18:57,436
And, as always,
262
00:18:57,436 --> 00:19:00,200
the Americans set the show
and pay all bills.
263
00:19:03,275 --> 00:19:04,970
All of p !
264
00:19:13,152 --> 00:19:15,882
G ring was indicted
with four accusations:
265
00:19:16,221 --> 00:19:18,314
order wars of aggression,
266
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,418
participate in war crimes,
267
00:19:23,729 --> 00:19:25,594
crimes against humanity
268
00:19:27,533 --> 00:19:30,400
and conspire, together with Hitler,
to carry them out.
269
00:19:41,013 --> 00:19:43,880
The judgement
what is to start
270
00:19:44,383 --> 00:19:48,979
Unique in history
of world jurisprudence
271
00:19:49,521 --> 00:19:56,552
and of utmost importance
for millions of people worldwide.
272
00:19:56,828 --> 00:19:58,352
To be seated
273
00:19:58,430 --> 00:20:02,298
watching no more
which is six or seven meters distant,
274
00:20:02,367 --> 00:20:07,304
to G ring, Hess,
Keitel, Kaltenbrunner
275
00:20:07,839 --> 00:20:10,467
and all 21 ruus,
276
00:20:10,542 --> 00:20:14,308
the high leadership
of what was left of the Nazis,
277
00:20:14,379 --> 00:20:16,142
headed by Hermann G ring.
278
00:20:16,215 --> 00:20:17,705
And I sat there.
279
00:20:17,783 --> 00:20:22,516
A Different Pleasure
of everything I could imagine:
280
00:20:22,988 --> 00:20:26,924
see justification be done.
281
00:20:27,759 --> 00:20:29,317
G ring and the rest
282
00:20:29,394 --> 00:20:32,329
declared themselves innocent
of all charges against them.
283
00:20:33,265 --> 00:20:37,065
It was time for Robert Jackson
initiate the charge.
284
00:20:39,037 --> 00:20:41,198
Excellencies.
285
00:20:42,207 --> 00:20:44,402
We will demonstrate
that these prisoners
286
00:20:44,476 --> 00:20:48,310
are alive symbols
of racial hatred,
287
00:20:49,214 --> 00:20:51,944
of terrorism and violence
288
00:20:52,517 --> 00:20:57,216
and arrogance
and cruelty of power.
289
00:20:58,023 --> 00:21:01,550
These friars did
a war of aggression.
290
00:21:02,227 --> 00:21:05,128
A war that violated treaties.
291
00:21:05,797 --> 00:21:09,893
The rearmament of Germany
exceeded, while the neighboring countries
292
00:21:10,602 --> 00:21:12,229
which, in about a year,
293
00:21:12,638 --> 00:21:19,874
she managed to crush
the military force of Continental Europe.
294
00:21:28,987 --> 00:21:32,013
I could save a lot of hassle
for the accusation.
295
00:21:32,958 --> 00:21:34,585
Of course we rearm.
296
00:21:35,460 --> 00:21:38,258
I resettled Germany
to overflow
297
00:21:38,463 --> 00:21:40,727
I do not feel we have
reassembled us more.
298
00:21:42,701 --> 00:21:44,862
And treated!
299
00:21:46,438 --> 00:21:48,531
How much toilet paper, huh?
300
00:21:50,575 --> 00:21:53,806
So he attacked countries
that did not pose a threat?
301
00:21:53,879 --> 00:21:55,312
Well, have it!
302
00:21:55,380 --> 00:21:59,441
Americans did not take over
California and Texas?
303
00:21:59,818 --> 00:22:03,379
It was aggressive war
for expansion of territory.
304
00:22:03,755 --> 00:22:05,916
But when they are
the Germans who do,
305
00:22:06,825 --> 00:22:07,993
suddenly it was a crime.
306
00:22:07,993 --> 00:22:11,520
Never heard of Americans
massacring the Indians?
307
00:22:11,596 --> 00:22:15,430
-Well, you do not want to compare ...
-Look, look.
308
00:22:15,500 --> 00:22:17,730
This has been happening for centuries.
309
00:22:18,537 --> 00:22:22,701
In the Stone Age, they were
the brains of the club,
310
00:22:22,774 --> 00:22:25,265
and the living ate the dead.
311
00:22:28,347 --> 00:22:30,713
I think I would give
a meal for two, huh?
312
00:22:33,985 --> 00:22:35,454
From the beginning of the trial,
313
00:22:35,454 --> 00:22:38,981
the insolent aggressiveness
of G ring stood out.
314
00:22:39,057 --> 00:22:42,390
The challenge of rewriting
the last act of the Nazi drama
315
00:22:42,527 --> 00:22:45,189
was an invigorating stimulus.
316
00:22:45,897 --> 00:22:48,695
immediately,
he took care of the prisoners.
317
00:22:50,235 --> 00:22:54,331
I think, almost to the end,
G ring believed
318
00:22:54,406 --> 00:22:58,866
which would be recognized
as leader of the German government
319
00:22:58,977 --> 00:23:04,313
and end up dealing
with the Allies with ease.
320
00:23:04,383 --> 00:23:06,613
He demonstrated this,
never said anything about it
321
00:23:06,685 --> 00:23:10,883
but the print I had
when I saw him in Nuremberg.
322
00:23:15,394 --> 00:23:18,761
But in court,
the self-appointed leader of the Nazis
323
00:23:18,830 --> 00:23:21,765
was facing
an ever increasing amount of evidence.
324
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:41,050
If this court agrees,
the US Attorney's Office will now show
325
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:45,249
a documentary film
on the concentration camps.
326
00:23:46,458 --> 00:23:50,918
The intention is to prove
that each of these rivers
327
00:23:50,996 --> 00:23:54,557
knew of existence
of these fields,
328
00:23:54,633 --> 00:23:58,399
instruments through which
the Rus kept their power
329
00:23:59,137 --> 00:24:02,573
and removed the opposition
to their conduct.
330
00:24:05,677 --> 00:24:08,646
Dachau,
factory of horrors.
331
00:24:09,815 --> 00:24:14,115
The trains of prisoners arrive,
bringing more dead than alive.
332
00:24:14,219 --> 00:24:16,483
Others died
after the release.
333
00:24:21,393 --> 00:24:23,520
They were buried
by other prisoners.
334
00:24:30,769 --> 00:24:34,500
This is what the liberators
found within the property.
335
00:24:41,012 --> 00:24:42,714
The brutal treatment
that these people received
336
00:24:42,714 --> 00:24:45,979
in the German concentration camps
It's almost unbelievable.
337
00:24:49,187 --> 00:24:51,018
The Nazis kept in the field
338
00:24:51,089 --> 00:24:52,784
facilities for medical experiments
and vivissec es,
339
00:24:52,924 --> 00:24:54,858
who used prisoners
like guinea pigs.
340
00:24:55,527 --> 00:24:57,688
Few who entered
in these experiments
341
00:24:57,762 --> 00:24:59,559
they live.
342
00:25:00,131 --> 00:25:02,065
A disposal plant
of cad veres.
343
00:25:02,133 --> 00:25:04,567
Inside, there are the ovens
that gave the creator
344
00:25:04,636 --> 00:25:09,073
a maximum disposal capacity
of 400 bodies per ten-hour journey.
345
00:25:10,141 --> 00:25:12,974
The bodies were reduced
the ash of bones.
346
00:25:16,314 --> 00:25:19,112
In Belsen, the same story.
347
00:25:22,821 --> 00:25:25,016
The sanitary conditions
they were so gruesome,
348
00:25:25,123 --> 00:25:26,892
what was needed
use heavy equipment
349
00:25:26,892 --> 00:25:29,122
to acelerate
the cleaning job.
350
00:25:32,063 --> 00:25:34,691
This was Bergen-Belsen.
351
00:25:46,678 --> 00:25:50,045
- I do not believe it.
-Stay quiet.
352
00:25:53,985 --> 00:25:58,752
When the movie was shown,
had a strong effect on the rus.
353
00:25:58,823 --> 00:26:01,121
There was complete silence
in the courtroom.
354
00:26:01,192 --> 00:26:03,854
The conversation between them stopped.
355
00:26:03,929 --> 00:26:07,695
For the first time,
the gurus realized
356
00:26:07,766 --> 00:26:14,262
of which they were involved
a totally criminal initiative
357
00:26:14,372 --> 00:26:19,400
and that they would have to respond
consequences.
358
00:26:26,017 --> 00:26:28,383
Atarde was so good.
359
00:26:28,987 --> 00:26:32,479
Until they pass that movie.
That ruined everything.
360
00:26:35,327 --> 00:26:38,888
The evidence is very incriminating,
do not you think?
361
00:26:41,333 --> 00:26:44,325
I still can not
understand all that.
362
00:26:47,005 --> 00:26:51,101
Do you think
that if they came to tell me:
363
00:26:51,810 --> 00:26:57,043
"Hey, they're doing experiments.
freezing with human guinea pigs, ''
364
00:26:58,083 --> 00:27:01,917
or that they were forcing people
digging graves
365
00:27:01,987 --> 00:27:04,251
to shoot them later
thousands.
366
00:27:05,190 --> 00:27:07,058
I would have said:
'' Well, leave it alone!
367
00:27:07,058 --> 00:27:09,253
What tremendous nonsense! ''
368
00:27:13,398 --> 00:27:16,663
If they took
two zeros of those numbers,
369
00:27:16,735 --> 00:27:18,930
I could
have found them conceivable,
370
00:27:19,037 --> 00:27:23,098
but, my God,
Yes, that is execrable.
371
00:27:23,174 --> 00:27:25,699
It does not seem possible!
372
00:27:26,544 --> 00:27:29,104
I missed that.
like enemy propaganda.
373
00:27:29,180 --> 00:27:33,310
Do not feel in any way
personally responsible?
374
00:27:35,353 --> 00:27:36,980
Look,
375
00:27:37,055 --> 00:27:39,956
I can tell them
who was prepared to make war
376
00:27:40,025 --> 00:27:42,459
to return power Germany,
377
00:27:42,961 --> 00:27:46,522
but I have to defend myself
in an aspect relative to my honor:
378
00:27:47,699 --> 00:27:52,500
I never ordered the realization
of any of these atrocities.
379
00:28:04,582 --> 00:28:09,212
Hermann G ring.
Posture in trial and defense.
380
00:28:09,888 --> 00:28:13,824
This so-called Achilles
had a vulnerable heel:
381
00:28:13,892 --> 00:28:15,519
the atrocities.
382
00:28:16,127 --> 00:28:21,394
They nullify the effect of your pose
of patrician her i and example of officer.
383
00:28:22,167 --> 00:28:23,259
One should ask him:
384
00:28:23,334 --> 00:28:26,826
Why did not he investigate?
the reports of atrocities.
385
00:28:26,905 --> 00:28:31,274
This gives your enemies the chance
to attack him with good reason
386
00:28:32,277 --> 00:28:34,973
and spoils his pose.
387
00:28:37,882 --> 00:28:39,751
But Jackson needed to prove
388
00:28:39,751 --> 00:28:42,020
that G ring was
personally involved
389
00:28:42,020 --> 00:28:43,920
with the Nazi atrocities.
390
00:28:45,490 --> 00:28:47,617
Gilbert continued to watch him.
391
00:28:50,128 --> 00:28:54,326
I wanted the F hrertivesse
on the side of his followers
392
00:28:54,399 --> 00:28:58,392
and assumed responsibility
for his command.
393
00:28:59,404 --> 00:29:01,565
Think about his position!
394
00:29:01,639 --> 00:29:02,697
Ah, of course.
395
00:29:03,475 --> 00:29:06,273
His position as
war criminal, right?
396
00:29:07,645 --> 00:29:09,408
He was our sovereign.
397
00:29:11,049 --> 00:29:15,281
For me, it would be intolerable to see him.
before a foreign court.
398
00:29:17,655 --> 00:29:19,282
You knew the Fhrer.
399
00:29:21,025 --> 00:29:23,619
He would be the first
to stand up and say:
400
00:29:24,195 --> 00:29:27,722
'' I gave the orders and I will
total responsibility ".
401
00:29:29,300 --> 00:29:32,633
I would rather die ten times
402
00:29:35,106 --> 00:29:38,132
to see the sovereign
subject to this humiliation.
403
00:29:51,289 --> 00:29:58,320
Save the victory!
Save the victory! Save the victory!
404
00:30:03,568 --> 00:30:07,026
G ring had sworn an oath
of loyalty to his F hrer.
405
00:30:07,105 --> 00:30:08,970
And he made a memorable statement:
406
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,999
'' I have no conscience;
Adolf Hitler to my conscience. '
407
00:30:13,945 --> 00:30:17,312
This strong
that any evidence against Hitler
408
00:30:17,382 --> 00:30:20,442
could be used
like munition against G ring.
409
00:30:27,725 --> 00:30:30,489
The accusation began to call
to the witness stand
410
00:30:30,562 --> 00:30:32,063
other important Nazis,
411
00:30:32,063 --> 00:30:33,698
prepared to report
first hand
412
00:30:33,698 --> 00:30:35,825
during the war.
413
00:30:36,601 --> 00:30:38,796
Can you explain to the court
414
00:30:39,404 --> 00:30:42,373
how are these executions
were performed?
415
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:47,373
A local command tried to collect
all the Jews in their area,
416
00:30:47,445 --> 00:30:50,312
under the pretext of resettlement.
417
00:30:50,381 --> 00:30:53,316
They were transported
to the place of execution,
418
00:30:53,384 --> 00:30:55,648
usually,
an antitank trench.
419
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,484
The executions were made
to the military mode,
420
00:30:58,556 --> 00:31:00,183
by firing squads.
421
00:31:00,725 --> 00:31:03,660
You arrived
to talk to Himmler
422
00:31:03,728 --> 00:31:05,320
about that order?
423
00:31:05,930 --> 00:31:09,127
Yes, in mid-1941,
424
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,966
Himmler gathered the leaders and soldiers
of the Eisatzkommandos.
425
00:31:13,071 --> 00:31:15,232
Emphasized the fact
that the leaders and soldiers
426
00:31:15,340 --> 00:31:17,240
who participated in the executions
427
00:31:17,308 --> 00:31:21,142
they had no personal responsibility
when executing his orders.
428
00:31:21,212 --> 00:31:23,180
It was only his responsibility.
429
00:31:23,681 --> 00:31:25,410
And the F hrer.
430
00:31:27,552 --> 00:31:31,420
"Did you hear him say that?"
-I heard.
431
00:31:38,096 --> 00:31:42,658
What this pig hoped to gain
selling the soul to the enemy?
432
00:31:43,935 --> 00:31:45,766
He's going to be hanged, really.
433
00:31:48,673 --> 00:31:50,538
Hell, I just wanted to.
that we had the courage
434
00:31:50,608 --> 00:31:53,907
to restrict our defense
to three words:
435
00:31:54,345 --> 00:31:56,245
'' Go to hell! ''
436
00:32:02,620 --> 00:32:06,351
Your Excellency,
wanna go to hell
437
00:32:14,966 --> 00:32:17,366
The war
would be a big joke.
438
00:32:18,002 --> 00:32:20,562
If only I did not die
so many people because of her.
439
00:32:23,074 --> 00:32:25,634
Who's calling this?
440
00:32:27,178 --> 00:32:29,203
Go to hell
441
00:32:41,025 --> 00:32:43,061
Elsie, are with you.
my notes
442
00:32:43,061 --> 00:32:45,029
on counter-interrogation
from G ring?
443
00:32:45,463 --> 00:32:46,691
This is Bob.
444
00:32:47,465 --> 00:32:49,990
After three months gathering evidence,
445
00:32:50,068 --> 00:32:53,526
G ring and Jackson
they would face each other in court.
446
00:32:57,375 --> 00:33:01,607
The success of all judgment depended
of G ring's counter-interrogation.
447
00:33:05,717 --> 00:33:08,319
If Jackson and his team
could not convince the world
448
00:33:08,319 --> 00:33:09,954
of G ring's guilt,
449
00:33:09,954 --> 00:33:14,357
there was the serious risk of a resurgence
of support for the Nazis in Germany.
450
00:33:14,592 --> 00:33:17,584
At least you will represent
with crowded house.
451
00:33:20,665 --> 00:33:24,465
Gilbert had advised that they attack
addressing the atrocities of the Nazis.
452
00:33:25,737 --> 00:33:29,332
I want to call the r u Hermann G ring
to the witness stand.
453
00:33:29,407 --> 00:33:30,135
But, instead,
454
00:33:30,208 --> 00:33:33,075
Jackson concentrated
in exploring the vanity of G ring,
455
00:33:33,144 --> 00:33:35,446
stimulating him to speak
about its importance
456
00:33:35,446 --> 00:33:37,209
for the Nazi dictatorship.
457
00:33:38,383 --> 00:33:42,717
It was the last chance for G ring
defend their place, and of the Nazis,
458
00:33:42,787 --> 00:33:44,084
in history.
459
00:33:44,856 --> 00:33:50,089
When it arrived
the turn of G ring testify,
460
00:33:50,194 --> 00:33:53,994
he had been taken off drugs,
had emaciated,
461
00:33:54,165 --> 00:33:56,793
and was in awe.
462
00:33:56,868 --> 00:33:58,335
He bragged.
463
00:33:58,403 --> 00:34:00,667
He had once been the G ring of the past.
464
00:34:00,738 --> 00:34:05,198
He radiated energy,
he radiated contempt for Jackson.
465
00:34:08,646 --> 00:34:10,978
You must be aware
466
00:34:11,883 --> 00:34:15,910
that the only living man
that can enlighten us
467
00:34:16,020 --> 00:34:19,421
about the real purpose
of the Nazi party
468
00:34:19,791 --> 00:34:22,316
and on the operation
of his leadership.
469
00:34:24,529 --> 00:34:26,429
I am perfectly aware of this.
470
00:34:27,799 --> 00:34:29,232
In assuming power,
471
00:34:29,300 --> 00:34:33,430
You abolished
the parliamentary regime in Germany.
472
00:34:35,039 --> 00:34:37,803
We believe that he
it was no longer necessary.
473
00:34:38,476 --> 00:34:42,242
They did not believe and did not
474
00:34:42,513 --> 00:34:45,107
government with consent
of the ruled?
475
00:34:47,485 --> 00:34:49,851
The statement does not
entirely correct.
476
00:34:50,321 --> 00:34:53,347
Even a formed government
within the '' Fรผhrer principle ''
477
00:34:53,424 --> 00:34:56,260
only you can keep
if based
478
00:34:56,260 --> 00:34:57,818
in the confidence of the people.
479
00:34:58,963 --> 00:35:02,763
I can remind you that your own
President Roosevelt stated:
480
00:35:02,834 --> 00:35:05,997
'' H, in Europe,
who has abandoned democracy
481
00:35:06,070 --> 00:35:08,061
because democracy
generated too weak men
482
00:35:08,139 --> 00:35:12,200
to give p o and work to its people
and to satisfy him ''.
483
00:35:16,948 --> 00:35:20,509
G ring had prepared himself
for their defense.
484
00:35:20,785 --> 00:35:25,222
He left for the offensive.
immediately.
485
00:35:25,389 --> 00:35:29,120
And he overshadowed Judge Jackson.
486
00:35:29,894 --> 00:35:32,886
... of the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg.
The 300 journalists and observers
487
00:35:32,964 --> 00:35:35,330
who attended today's session
of War Crimes Trial
488
00:35:35,399 --> 00:35:37,401
had a good night
why G ring
489
00:35:37,401 --> 00:35:39,103
was below s of Hitler
490
00:35:39,103 --> 00:35:41,298
in the hierarchy
of Nazi Germany.
491
00:35:41,372 --> 00:35:44,808
Fat, bloated, G ring certainly
He's an astute fat man.
492
00:35:50,815 --> 00:35:53,443
Jackson, then,
tried a different tactic:
493
00:35:53,684 --> 00:35:56,517
to confront G ring
with documented evidence
494
00:35:56,988 --> 00:35:59,190
and prove that he had conspired
with Hitler
495
00:35:59,190 --> 00:36:01,590
to violate peace treaties
countries.
496
00:36:01,859 --> 00:36:06,387
In speech
of May 21, 1935,
497
00:36:06,464 --> 00:36:09,524
the F hrer stated
that the demilitarized zone
498
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:11,625
would be respected.
499
00:36:11,702 --> 00:36:14,330
Do you see
the following paragraph?
500
00:36:16,007 --> 00:36:17,702
'' Since, at the moment,
501
00:36:17,775 --> 00:36:22,405
international complications
should be avoided in any way,
502
00:36:22,513 --> 00:36:25,082
all the urgent preparations
503
00:36:25,082 --> 00:36:28,186
must be maintained
in absolute secrecy. ''
504
00:36:28,186 --> 00:36:29,619
Do you see that?
505
00:36:30,688 --> 00:36:31,416
I am.
506
00:36:31,489 --> 00:36:35,585
These preparations
they were military preparations, were not they?
507
00:36:37,028 --> 00:36:40,555
They were general preparations
of mobilization,
508
00:36:40,631 --> 00:36:42,599
like those of any other country.
509
00:36:42,667 --> 00:36:44,157
But they had a character
510
00:36:44,235 --> 00:36:48,365
which should be kept in strict confidence
of foreign powers.
511
00:36:53,911 --> 00:36:56,607
I do not remember
of having read in advance
512
00:36:56,714 --> 00:37:01,913
the publication of the preparations
of US mobilization.
513
00:37:03,621 --> 00:37:05,816
Respectfully,
514
00:37:05,890 --> 00:37:09,087
I submit to this court
that the witness is not cooperating
515
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,462
and who was not present
to his interrogation.
516
00:37:11,462 --> 00:37:13,760
You can repeat the question,
please?
517
00:37:13,831 --> 00:37:16,095
And it's totally useless
we waste our time
518
00:37:16,300 --> 00:37:19,167
if it is not to get
answers.
519
00:37:19,237 --> 00:37:19,804
Excuse me
520
00:37:19,804 --> 00:37:22,932
It seems to me that this witness
adopted and is adopting,
521
00:37:23,007 --> 00:37:24,702
on the witness stand
and in the gospels,
522
00:37:24,909 --> 00:37:27,969
an arrogant and scornful posture
in relation to this court,
523
00:37:28,045 --> 00:37:29,342
what is giving you
a judgment
524
00:37:29,447 --> 00:37:32,109
which he never gave to a soul,
alive or dead.
525
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:40,989
Maybe it's best to stop the session,
under these conditions.
526
00:37:52,003 --> 00:37:54,405
If you go twice
less successful than I,
527
00:37:54,405 --> 00:37:56,066
It will have gone well.
528
00:38:01,846 --> 00:38:04,406
-Very good.
"Very well, Reichsmarshall.
529
00:38:11,389 --> 00:38:14,085
The arrogance of G ring
in today's session
530
00:38:14,158 --> 00:38:17,685
corroborates what they have always said
opponents of the idea of โโthis trial:
531
00:38:17,762 --> 00:38:19,559
if they give to these people
the opportunity to speak,
532
00:38:19,697 --> 00:38:23,963
they will use advertising
and make him a farce.
533
00:38:24,769 --> 00:38:27,237
If we allow G ring
get out of this impunity,
534
00:38:27,338 --> 00:38:30,034
he will encourage all sorts of
to do the same.
535
00:38:32,677 --> 00:38:35,202
Maybe it's better
536
00:38:35,279 --> 00:38:38,407
stop counter-interrogation,
in those circumstances.
537
00:38:38,482 --> 00:38:40,313
We must continue.
538
00:38:40,584 --> 00:38:42,779
Stop now would be interpreted
like a victory
539
00:38:42,887 --> 00:38:44,588
of obstruction tactics
of G ring.
540
00:38:44,588 --> 00:38:47,182
G ring is having
freedom to preach.
541
00:38:49,093 --> 00:38:51,295
If it becomes
a hero of the Nazis
542
00:38:51,295 --> 00:38:53,764
why dare
to respond to the US,
543
00:38:53,764 --> 00:38:56,961
he will gain admiration
of all the Nazis in Germany.
544
00:38:58,969 --> 00:39:00,197
You know...
545
00:39:04,775 --> 00:39:07,266
I almost came to think,
this afternoon,
546
00:39:07,345 --> 00:39:10,872
that would have been wiser
shoot those men at once.
547
00:39:14,585 --> 00:39:18,077
The judgment, at that time,
548
00:39:18,155 --> 00:39:21,249
really hit a tricky spot
between success and failure,
549
00:39:21,325 --> 00:39:23,894
because if it was not possible
cross-examine
550
00:39:23,894 --> 00:39:27,955
or, in public sessions,
risk asking questions to those people,
551
00:39:28,032 --> 00:39:31,524
the judgment would be seen
like a total clown.
552
00:39:31,602 --> 00:39:33,471
It would not have made sense to do so.
and, in a way,
553
00:39:33,471 --> 00:39:36,065
would be a victory for the Russians.
554
00:39:37,842 --> 00:39:41,445
G RlNG RECEIVES '' F S LETTERS ''
The defense of G ring, which
rekindle Nazi sentiments,
555
00:39:41,445 --> 00:39:43,003
G RlNG RECEIVES '' F S LETTERS ''
has had a certain success.
556
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:44,945
A Hollywood quantity
of holiday cards
557
00:39:45,015 --> 00:39:47,483
has been sent
to the burly former Reichsmarshall,
558
00:39:47,585 --> 00:39:49,644
but he does not have permission
to receive them.
559
00:39:49,720 --> 00:39:53,121
Most in line
'' Keep your head up, Hermann, ''
560
00:39:53,190 --> 00:39:55,488
or "Parab ns, Hermann."
561
00:39:58,696 --> 00:40:02,496
Do not say nobody loves you.
562
00:40:03,267 --> 00:40:06,896
I know somebody loves you.
563
00:40:06,971 --> 00:40:11,203
And if you're wondering
who can be,
564
00:40:11,275 --> 00:40:15,769
I'll say no one loves you like I do.
565
00:40:22,553 --> 00:40:25,784
The cross-examination of G ring,
then passed to the British.
566
00:40:30,661 --> 00:40:32,356
The Maxwell-Fyfe Strategy
567
00:40:32,430 --> 00:40:36,230
was to prove that G ring was lying
about how much you knew about the Holocaust
568
00:40:36,300 --> 00:40:38,996
and undermine your credibility
as a witness.
569
00:40:44,108 --> 00:40:48,272
This document has been sent to us
by the British Army on the Rhine.
570
00:40:49,580 --> 00:40:52,981
He is addressed to everyone.
the administrative levels,
571
00:40:53,050 --> 00:40:55,883
to the municipal level,
of the Nazi party
572
00:40:55,953 --> 00:41:00,049
and assume that everyone knew everything
on the concentration camps.
573
00:41:02,226 --> 00:41:04,217
Are you telling the court?
574
00:41:04,295 --> 00:41:08,425
that you, who until 1943
was the second man of the Reich,
575
00:41:08,499 --> 00:41:11,195
nothing knew
about the concentration camps?
576
00:41:13,370 --> 00:41:16,737
I did not know anything
about what happened
577
00:41:16,807 --> 00:41:20,174
and on the methods used
in the concentration camps.
578
00:41:21,045 --> 00:41:24,446
I must remind you of the proof.
which was submitted to the court
579
00:41:24,915 --> 00:41:28,783
of which 4 million Jews
died in the concentration camps
580
00:41:28,853 --> 00:41:32,846
and that another 2 million
death in other ways.
581
00:41:32,923 --> 00:41:36,552
Are you telling this court?
that a minister with his power in the Reich
582
00:41:36,627 --> 00:41:39,323
could ignore the fact
that all this was happening?
583
00:41:39,697 --> 00:41:41,324
I maintain that yes,
584
00:41:41,732 --> 00:41:44,724
because all this
was hidden from me.
585
00:41:45,002 --> 00:41:47,605
And I may add that,
in my opinion,
586
00:41:47,605 --> 00:41:49,740
not even the Fhrer
was aware of the extension
587
00:41:49,740 --> 00:41:51,332
of what was happening.
588
00:41:53,010 --> 00:41:57,447
I want you to read the story.
of a discussion between the Fhrer
589
00:41:57,515 --> 00:42:01,815
and the regent of Hungary,
in April of 1943.
590
00:42:02,186 --> 00:42:03,551
Do you have it?
591
00:42:05,789 --> 00:42:07,950
-Have.
-Hitler says:
592
00:42:08,759 --> 00:42:11,353
'' If the Jews who were there
did not want to work,
593
00:42:11,428 --> 00:42:12,622
were shot.
594
00:42:13,230 --> 00:42:16,324
If they could not work,
they had to die. ''
595
00:42:17,768 --> 00:42:21,101
The Minister for Foreign Affairs
of the Reich, who is there,
596
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,843
stated that Jews
should be exterminated
597
00:42:25,843 --> 00:42:27,777
or taken
to concentration camps.
598
00:42:27,845 --> 00:42:30,177
There was no other possibility.
599
00:42:32,116 --> 00:42:37,418
Please examine the USSR-170 proof.
600
00:42:37,788 --> 00:42:40,188
A meeting that you had
with some people.
601
00:42:41,992 --> 00:42:43,892
I draw your attention
for the statement:
602
00:42:44,662 --> 00:42:47,790
"There are few living Jews left.
603
00:42:48,532 --> 00:42:51,262
Tens of thousands
have already been discarded. "
604
00:42:53,737 --> 00:42:56,934
You still say,
before these two documents,
605
00:42:57,007 --> 00:42:59,407
that neither Hitler,
neither did you know
606
00:42:59,476 --> 00:43:02,001
that the Jews
were being exterminated?
607
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:06,441
-For the correction of this document, I should ...
-You want to answer the question!
608
00:43:06,517 --> 00:43:09,714
You still say
that neither Hitler nor
609
00:43:09,787 --> 00:43:12,756
they knew there was a politics
of extermination of Jews?
610
00:43:13,223 --> 00:43:17,182
As far as Hitler is concerned,
I said I do not think so.
611
00:43:17,261 --> 00:43:20,662
As for me,
said that I do not know, not by surprise,
612
00:43:20,731 --> 00:43:22,562
how far things have come.
613
00:43:22,633 --> 00:43:24,931
I did not know how far.
614
00:43:25,002 --> 00:43:28,563
But I knew there was a year plan
oriented towards the extermination of the Jews?
615
00:43:28,639 --> 00:43:34,134
No, an emigration plan.
Not to liquidate the Jews.
616
00:43:34,311 --> 00:43:38,407
I just knew the occurrence
isolated cases of such crimes.
617
00:43:40,017 --> 00:43:41,314
Thank you.
618
00:43:47,825 --> 00:43:52,489
I think the real talent
619
00:43:52,563 --> 00:43:56,761
of that accusation team
was Sir David Maxwell-Fyfe.
620
00:43:56,834 --> 00:44:00,292
He had more luggage,
621
00:44:00,371 --> 00:44:04,740
and it was natural that someone
who lived in England
622
00:44:04,808 --> 00:44:07,140
to know more about Germany
623
00:44:07,211 --> 00:44:08,803
that another who lived
and worked in the USA,
624
00:44:08,879 --> 00:44:14,078
and Maxwell-Fyfe did very well,
it was he who frustrated G ring.
625
00:44:16,186 --> 00:44:19,952
But G ring had not resigned
neither to Nazism nor to Hitler.
626
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:24,787
That might interest you.
627
00:44:25,996 --> 00:44:27,327
Until that happened,
628
00:44:27,398 --> 00:44:30,060
there would be danger
of, dead or alive,
629
00:44:30,167 --> 00:44:32,965
G ring being the focus
of support for Nazism.
630
00:44:34,605 --> 00:44:36,903
Your wife
She's worried about you.
631
00:44:37,608 --> 00:44:41,476
She is worried
with his blind loyalty to the Fhrer.
632
00:44:44,148 --> 00:44:45,706
Ah, all right.
633
00:44:46,784 --> 00:44:50,015
She's the woman.
Woman is good for that.
634
00:44:50,954 --> 00:44:52,888
People will understand.
635
00:44:53,957 --> 00:44:56,016
It would not be better
face the facts?
636
00:44:58,028 --> 00:44:59,859
The man was a murderer.
637
00:45:04,601 --> 00:45:07,399
I can hardly imagine
that he has ordered
638
00:45:07,671 --> 00:45:11,937
the death of Russians, some Jews
and political enemies.
639
00:45:12,009 --> 00:45:15,706
But I do not believe
which Hitler ordered
640
00:45:15,779 --> 00:45:18,145
the murder
women and children.
641
00:45:20,951 --> 00:45:24,216
Hitler was a psychopath.
642
00:45:24,588 --> 00:45:30,549
Himmler, yes,
but Hitler was so fascinating,
643
00:45:30,627 --> 00:45:32,822
he spoke with such nobility!
644
00:45:35,899 --> 00:45:41,838
Anyway,
those numbers
645
00:45:42,272 --> 00:45:45,503
In practice,
It is simply impossible.
646
00:45:54,518 --> 00:45:57,146
The judgment, then,
took an unexpected turn.
647
00:45:57,855 --> 00:45:59,846
There was an important Nazi alive
648
00:45:59,990 --> 00:46:03,153
who could testify
especially the Holocaust.
649
00:46:04,528 --> 00:46:08,123
The commander of Auschwitz,
outlawed since the end of the war,
650
00:46:08,298 --> 00:46:10,698
had finally been captured
by the British.
651
00:46:11,368 --> 00:46:13,097
Recorded in his testimony,
652
00:46:13,170 --> 00:46:15,570
is his description of how,
only in his field,
653
00:46:15,639 --> 00:46:18,233
more than 1 million people
were murdered.
654
00:46:20,844 --> 00:46:22,573
'' I used Zyklon B,
655
00:46:22,646 --> 00:46:26,047
dumped in the death chamber
through a small opening.
656
00:46:26,550 --> 00:46:29,280
It took 3 to 15 minutes.
657
00:46:30,354 --> 00:46:31,822
We knew when people
had died
658
00:46:31,822 --> 00:46:33,915
because the screams stopped.
659
00:46:35,259 --> 00:46:38,456
After the bodies were removed,
our special Kommandos
660
00:46:38,595 --> 00:46:43,032
they took the rings and extracted the gold
of the teeth of the corns.
661
00:46:46,103 --> 00:46:50,005
Very small children
were invariably exterminated,
662
00:46:51,175 --> 00:46:54,667
since, by virtue of his age,
were unable to work. ''
663
00:46:58,682 --> 00:47:01,310
All this is true
and is it right, witness?
664
00:47:02,653 --> 00:47:03,677
Yes.
665
00:47:11,161 --> 00:47:14,824
He was just another German,
being loyal to his F hrer.
666
00:47:21,505 --> 00:47:25,908
It is a crime of such enormity,
that, after that proof,
667
00:47:25,976 --> 00:47:29,173
the rus, for the most part,
they gave up.
668
00:47:32,382 --> 00:47:33,440
One by one,
669
00:47:33,517 --> 00:47:36,645
the main Nazis in Germany
occupied the witness stand.
670
00:47:37,321 --> 00:47:41,690
The world waited to see
if they would follow the example of G ring,
671
00:47:41,758 --> 00:47:45,250
firmly defending
Hitler and Nazism.
672
00:47:45,629 --> 00:47:49,360
The most devilish mass murder
that history has already seen
673
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:52,425
was ordered by Adolf Hitler.
674
00:47:52,803 --> 00:47:55,931
A crime that fills
all Germans of shame.
675
00:48:02,779 --> 00:48:09,844
To provoke this war
was the greatest crime and greatest insanity
676
00:48:10,621 --> 00:48:12,589
which Hitler committed.
677
00:48:16,226 --> 00:48:21,095
Successively, the
were adopting different tactics,
678
00:48:21,198 --> 00:48:23,792
admitted part of the blame,
or whatever.
679
00:48:23,867 --> 00:48:29,601
But what happened was that G ring
and his idea that he would be the leader,
680
00:48:29,673 --> 00:48:35,873
the F hrer of that group of criminals
until the end, evaporated.
681
00:48:37,314 --> 00:48:40,078
I will cite a statement
of the witness.
682
00:48:41,518 --> 00:48:45,750
'' Although he called Hitler
of a kind of amoral person,
683
00:48:46,523 --> 00:48:51,688
I can only consider G ring
immoral and criminal.
684
00:48:52,062 --> 00:48:55,498
Being more egocentric
imaginable
685
00:48:56,700 --> 00:49:00,136
His gain was unlimited. ''
686
00:49:03,073 --> 00:49:04,768
Did you give that testimony?
687
00:49:09,846 --> 00:49:10,904
Dei.
688
00:49:29,866 --> 00:49:33,267
Look, I would not worry any more.
with the legend of Hitler.
689
00:49:38,075 --> 00:49:39,804
When the German people
690
00:49:40,010 --> 00:49:43,104
take notice of everything
which was revealed in this trial,
691
00:49:44,014 --> 00:49:46,244
it will not be necessary to condemn it.
692
00:49:51,521 --> 00:49:53,489
He condemned himself.
693
00:50:13,210 --> 00:50:15,201
As she approached
the day of judgment,
694
00:50:15,312 --> 00:50:17,712
G ring was getting more nervous
695
00:50:17,781 --> 00:50:20,716
and finding
more and more difficult to laugh.
696
00:50:39,236 --> 00:50:42,501
R u Hermann Wilhelm G ring,
697
00:50:44,841 --> 00:50:49,972
according to the terms of the indictment
for which he was convicted,
698
00:50:50,447 --> 00:50:57,182
the lnternational Military Tribunal
sentence him to death by hanging.
699
00:51:28,852 --> 00:51:32,686
Of the 21 birds,
11 were sentenced to death,
700
00:51:32,756 --> 00:51:36,988
Seven went to prison
and three were acquitted.
701
00:51:48,472 --> 00:51:51,032
The Reichsmarschall
he will not be hanged.
702
00:51:58,115 --> 00:51:59,946
Can you leave me a little alone?
703
00:52:14,030 --> 00:52:18,831
We listened to the AFN, the radio program
of the Armed Forces Network.
704
00:52:18,902 --> 00:52:23,601
It came from outside the building.
705
00:52:23,673 --> 00:52:26,107
I knew that all judges
had car
706
00:52:26,276 --> 00:52:30,804
and they all had German drivers,
which parked there.
707
00:52:30,881 --> 00:52:34,282
So we're curious.
708
00:52:34,351 --> 00:52:41,086
I was listening to Spike Jones.
and his recording of Der F hrer's Face.
709
00:52:41,158 --> 00:52:44,924
When the Fhrer says
'' We are the top race ''
710
00:52:44,995 --> 00:52:48,089
Nils heil, heil,
Right in F hrer's face.
711
00:52:48,165 --> 00:52:51,566
Do not worship the F hrer
A big disgrace
712
00:52:51,635 --> 00:52:55,230
Then heil, heil,
Right in F hrer's face.
713
00:52:55,805 --> 00:52:58,535
And happened
the funniest thing in the world:
714
00:52:58,708 --> 00:53:03,543
all those German drivers
they were laughing at the music.
715
00:53:03,813 --> 00:53:05,337
It was over.
716
00:53:05,415 --> 00:53:11,581
The F hrer, G ring and all,
what they represented
717
00:53:11,655 --> 00:53:12,644
were out of the way.
718
00:53:12,822 --> 00:53:14,483
And they could live again.
719
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:20,218
When Herr G ring says
"We will never bomb this place,
720
00:53:20,297 --> 00:53:23,789
Nils heil, heil,
Right in Herr G ring's face.
721
00:53:27,070 --> 00:53:30,972
With the defeat of G ring
on court
722
00:53:31,041 --> 00:53:34,977
and subsequent convictions
and sentence of death,
723
00:53:35,145 --> 00:53:37,511
I think it can be said
that it was really there
724
00:53:37,581 --> 00:53:39,276
the end of the Third Reich.
725
00:53:46,056 --> 00:53:49,116
G ring appealed
of the hanging sentence.
726
00:53:50,093 --> 00:53:52,994
He asked to be shot,
727
00:53:53,063 --> 00:53:55,293
a more appropriate death
for a soldier.
728
00:53:55,865 --> 00:53:58,891
The request was denied by the judges.
729
00:54:12,115 --> 00:54:15,278
I want all the lights in the cells
on tonight, sergeant.
730
00:54:16,152 --> 00:54:17,483
All night.
731
00:54:18,888 --> 00:54:20,321
Yes sir!
732
00:54:28,598 --> 00:54:29,656
Go on, Sergeant.
733
00:55:26,790 --> 00:55:27,814
Sergeant of service!
734
00:55:28,958 --> 00:55:30,391
There was something with G ring!
735
00:55:41,037 --> 00:55:45,064
Hermann G ring died
on October 15, 1946,
736
00:55:45,141 --> 00:55:48,599
when taking a light bulb
of SS suicide.
737
00:55:48,678 --> 00:55:53,240
Until today, we do not know
as he got it.
738
00:55:57,220 --> 00:56:02,658
G ring joined Hitler, Himmler,
Gbbels and Ley, choosing the suicide.
739
00:56:03,126 --> 00:56:04,991
He died as he had lived,
740
00:56:05,061 --> 00:56:08,053
trying to mock
of all human values
741
00:56:08,365 --> 00:56:13,598
and distract from your guilt
with a dramatic gesture.
742
00:56:17,774 --> 00:56:21,972
G ring's body, along with the bodies
of the other Nazis executed,
743
00:56:22,045 --> 00:56:24,479
was taken to a crematorium
in Munich.
744
00:56:24,547 --> 00:56:28,074
Their ashes were thrown
in secret on a river in the region.
745
00:56:28,852 --> 00:56:32,253
There would be no monument
to Hermann G ring.
746
00:56:33,254 --> 00:56:38,254
