[lbo-talk] What is you know what ?

[Chip Berlet]

The Nuremburg trials established the concept of genocide as a legal concept, and added it to a list being collected to define international human rights. The UN then codified them.

 
The Nuremburg trials did not define fascism in any way, shape, or form.

I'd say my definition of fascist
tends to the international legal definition that was established in the
Nuremburg trials of the Nazi war criminals. The legal principles established
there have been encoded generally as crimes against peace and crimes against
humanity. Crimes against peace are war crimes or criminal wars. Crimes
against humanity are genocides. I'll try to find a net reprint of the
definitions of these crimes.
