Point of clarity - At Nuremburg 'we hung people that used that excuse ' because that was their only Plea acceptable to the sham Court - other than accept complete Guilt to all the charges brought before oneself. Look up The legal term Ipso Facto - All charges were already considered proven in fact, no evidence or proof was necessary, in essence it was already decided you were guilty - only whether you accepted that (and the automatic Death sentence) or 'You were only following orders'. Not that it changes the actions and complicity of the holo-cov clowns.
