::So the Foreign Minster of the Third Riech wasn't even a Nazi, was not one of the 22 Nazi War Criminals at Nuremberg (although history remembers him that way), was found innocent at Nuremberg of being part of the Nazi conspiracy to (a) sieze power (b) make aggresive war (c) etc., although you persist in making that charge.

Did the Nuremberg trail say that it was a conspiracy? I doubt so. And indeed, van Papen helped Hitler to power, I guess there is little discussion about it. One might argue about his motivation, but seems to not much of a mystery either. [[User:Order|Order]] 04:21, 21 August 2007 (EDT)

:Yes it did. The [[Treaty of Munich]] was as "conspiracy against Peace", as well as all the other events (re-occupation of Rhineland, Invasion of poland, etc.) Then there was "conspiracy to wage aggressive war", etc.
:One should read the Nuremberg Indictment in its entirety [http://www.yale.edu/lawweb/avalon/imt/proc/count.htm]. It really is not that long. And it sets out all the major issues to be dealt with.
:You will see, for example, the Katyn massacre. Peculiar, isn't it, that while the Western Powers knew this Soviet charge was false, and that indeed one of the Administators of Justice in this case himself was guilty of the charge, allowed it to become part of the historical record (this record, which then was resurected in the mid 1990's as the model of Administering International Justice for War Crimes); also, after reading the horrors the Soviet's present, we almost get comic relief at France's idea of Crimes Against Humanity, like plunder of property [http://www.yale.edu/lawweb/avalon/imt/proc/count3.htm#sec8e]
:Wine..................................................................7,647,000 hectolitres.
:Champagne...................................................87,000,000 bottles
:Beer...................................................................3,821,520 hectolitres
:Various kinds of alcohol.................................1,830,000 hectolitres
:The myth of France as a "Great Power" (of for that matter, a "victim" when France provided more manpower, and more [[GDP]] to the Nazi cause than it did to defend or liberate itself, is something that at some point needs to clarified in the English language.
:Another point, the various charges of "mass deportation of populations", while Germans were being deported east of the Oder-Niese, the Keelhaul Agreement, the Crimean Taters, the Volga Germans etc. etc. etc. were occuring, has never been addressed (outside of Solzhenitsyn's Gulag Archipegligo), or "systematic malnutrition", which Lenin & Stalin perfected long before Hitler adoprted [[Bolshevik]] methods.
