Howard Buffett is the son of world-famous investor Warren Buffett. Howard Buffett was an attorney and four-term U.S. Congressman from Nebraska. This is what Howard Buffett said about the Nuremberg Trials:

‘Aside from the horrendous demand for Unconditional Surrender certainly the most stupid error of America’s World War II policies was to sponsor and participate in the so-called Nuremberg Trials.

‘From the standpoint of simple law and justice, these trials were a travesty on Anglo-Saxon traditions of law. Equally significant, they set a precedent that may someday haunt our children when future wars take place.

‘From the standpoint of bringing peace and reconciliation among the Western people of the world, the trials did nothing but harm. It is fortunate for the West that the German people have chosen to be charitable in their response to this tragic mistake.

‘As a brave and patriotic officer, Admiral Doenitz deserves the respect of thinking people everywhere for the moral stamina he exhibited in answer to the attacks upon his devotion to duty and record of naval competence.’

Howard Buffett was just one of thousands of Allied Army military commanders, heads of state, leading figures including writers, jurists, diplomats and legislators who openly declared their revulsion at the highly illegal kangaroo trials known as the Nuremberg Trials and postwar Military Tribunals.

In the days before Germany surrendered on May 8, 1945, US President Harry S Truman – ironically on his birthday – appointed Associate Supreme Court Justice Robert H Jackson to be the chief prosecutor representing the United States in the proposed trials for the European Axis powers.

Jackson, who afterwards denounced the trial of the defeated Germans as a sham helped lead the Allies, American, British, French, and Soviet regimes, to an agreement called the London Charter, setting the procedures for the Nuremberg Trials.

The London Agreement created the International Military Tribunal (IMT) on August 8, 1945, where each of the four Allied nations appointed a judge and a prosecution team. 

Interestingly, on May 8, 1945, President-Chancellor Adolf Hitler deceased (1889-1945) was the only head of state actually elected. As vice-president Harry Truman, a former retailer and the only head of state to have used a nuclear weapon had assumed the presidency. Wartime premier Winston Churchill had not been elected and Soviet dictator Josef Stalin had never in his life faced an election.

ONE OF THOUSANDS OF DENUNCIATES AGAINST THE ALLIES KANGAROO TRIALS: ‘The spirit which led the British and American people to look on complacently while their authorities were committing the monstrous injustice of holding the Nuremberg Trials, was nothing new; for it is latent in every savage beast; ….. 

Consequently, in the matter of chivalry, justice and fair play, the English record is even blacker than it was after World War 1 and the savagery and inhumanity that was displayed was far less restrained. From the looting and the sadistic ill-treatment of the defenceless population of the allied troops and control officials – Englishmen, Frenchmen, Russians and Americans, to the despicable display of troglodytic beastliness in the Nuremberg Trials, where Englishmen, Frenchmen and Americans sank to the level of Russian prosecutors in a ‘Great Purge’ trial and committed the extra infamy of pretending that the proceedings were ‘legal’ and ‘just’.

At least when the ancients ‘liquidated’ the military or other leaders of their defeated enemy, they marched a Caractacus or a Vercingetorix through the streets of Rome, they never aggravated the iniquity by trying to make it appear the outcome of a just and bona fide legal process.’  – Anthony M. Ludovici, English Army Officer, (World War One) Philosopher and author of 33 works, 1909 – 1960.

‘There was something cynical and revolting in the spectacle of British, French and American judges sitting on the bench with a colleague representing a country which before, during, and since the trials, had perpetrated half the political crimes in the calendar.’ – Lord Hankey, House of Lords, May 5 1949.
