angle of bias

I love the question of whether these trials were actually handled fairly. I enjoyed the way it sounded like it was made in late 40s.

this is not what I expected

I thought this would be bias but it was all about filling bad for the poor Nazis what a joke.

Heads up

This poorly done podcast spends way too much time defending Nazis. One has to wonder if he knows anything at all about the Holocaust and concentration camps. He even defends a member of the Trawniki guard…after all he was just a guard at Sobibor, and it was so long ago. He obviously has no idea what guards do, especially in Sobibor, but when he acted like he was taking the “high road” in defending and said the trial “ruined his life in his later years” I almost threw up. Hey…He asked what we think…I hope he has no idea what he’s talking about, anyone who would knowingly defend these war criminals is far from being on the “high road”.
