"... one should consider with disgust and sorrow this (Nuremberg Trials) and similar deeds which are<br />

dishonourable not only for the winners but also for the developments <strong>of</strong> the morals <strong>of</strong> humanity."<br />

Lieutenant General Fahri Belen, Turkish Army<br />

"Unjust and completely outrageous." (<strong>The</strong> conviction and imprisonment <strong>of</strong> Admiral Doenitz).<br />

Honourable George H. Earle, LL.D, D.C.L<br />

"Unwarranted, unjust and illegal." - Major General George L. Eberle, USA<br />

"Unjust ands a reflection on the United States." - Brigadier General Robert E. Wood, USA<br />

"What's the difference between Nuremberg and chaining the captured vanquished to the chariot <strong>of</strong> the<br />

victor to be dragged around an arena to the plaudits <strong>of</strong> the victor's henchmen?"<br />

Hon. George Bell Timmerman, LL.D. American jurist.<br />

"... could not have been fair and impartial and therefore should not have been held at all."<br />

Admiral Felix B. Stump, U.S.N<br />

"A disgrace upon America and should never have taken place."<br />

J.H Gipson, Sr. President, <strong>The</strong> Caxton Printers Ltd, Economist and author<br />

"Our government has set a precedent that can come back to plague it."<br />

William R. Mathews. Editor, Arizona Daily Star<br />

placing senior, or indeed any <strong>of</strong>ficers, on trial for carrying out orders from higher authority."<br />

Vice Admiral Cyril St. Clair Cameron, Royal Navy, C.B.E<br />

"A grave mistake and illegal." - Major General Harry H. Vaughan, U.S. Army Reserve<br />

".. one <strong>of</strong> the greatest, most unjust crimes ever committed by so-called civilised people. Undoubtedly<br />

military leaders <strong>of</strong> the so-called allies, were just as guilty <strong>of</strong> the charges made against those who were<br />

tried." - Hon. J. Bracken Lee, Governor, State <strong>of</strong> Utah<br />

"I consider that the trials have done an immeasurable amount <strong>of</strong> harm."<br />

- General Richard J. Mulcahy <strong>of</strong> Ireland; Minister <strong>of</strong> Defence<br />

"I applaud and endorse this effort to call attention to the injustice <strong>of</strong> the Nuremberg 'war crimes trials<br />

and to the dangerous precedent set by them."<br />

Hon. Henry P. Fletcher, LL.D. U.S. Under Secretary <strong>of</strong> State<br />

"In my opinion, the trials <strong>of</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essional military men as for instance the Nuremberg Trials remind <strong>of</strong><br />

the barbarian days when prisoners-<strong>of</strong>-war were killed just because they had fought."<br />
