I am far from complacent, what worries me is the naivete about war, which has been exhibited throughout the last few years.

On a personal note, my father was a judge on the first War Crimes tribunal -- which was not Nuremberg. It was held by the Canadians who indicted German officers for their crimes against the Geneva Convention (specifically for maltreatment of Canadian soldiers). The trial set a variety of precedents, and was used as a template for the more famous Nuremberg trials later (my father was a Canadian advisor to that trial as well). He has now passed away, but I am sure he would have many bitter, salient things to say about the descent into depraved behaviour.

yours,

Peter T.
