Hey so ya we are doing the nuremburg trials in class and im Herman Goering's defense attorney so I have been doing some research on him. During th trial he said: "Of course people don't want war. But after all, it's the leader of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, fascist Dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought back to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them that they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to greater danger." (This is an actual quote from snopes.com) Hope it helps. the nazi was killed
