* The Nazis didn't give a monkey's about human rights and condemned the concept as alien and 'un-German'. Nazi ideology claimed that human rights were only championed by the weak. * Some SS personnel had fought against Soviet forces in the Russian Civil War of 1918-1921 or against Communists in Latvia. This war had been conducted with utter savagery by both sides. Some of these people returned home steeped in brutality.

∙ 13y agoThe Nuremberg Trials were carried out and quite a large number of Nazi party members were tried for crimes against humanity. A result of these trials was the famous "just following orders" defense, which most civilized militaries including the US do not allow as a defense, if you are breaking the law you have an obligation not to follow an order. Additionally governments such as France carried out their own trials, much later and for mostly purposes of getting the truth out, they tried collaborators who helped the Nazis in their own country. Lots of good came from these trials, they initiated the development of international human rights law, which didn't exist beforehand. It paved the way for the trials for genocides in Rwanda and Bosnia. Lots of investigation has also taken place into assets that were stolen by the Nazi's and restitution has been made in many cases.
