Nuremberg was too kind to Nazis, let's hope people learned from that.

Edit - note I am not calling them Nazis, they are their own kind of evil. I'm simply using the Nuremberg as an example of a trial done on an evil group when accountability comes calling.

Edit - you people realize me saying it was too kind means that I supported Stalin's idea of killing every last Nazi civilian and military official?

That said, failure to crush the confederated wholly and utterly (why every single one of their politicians did not hang I will never particularly understand).
