SOME THOUGHTS FROM WILLIAM SHAWCROSS, on his new book, Justice and the Enemy: Nuremberg, 9/11, and the Trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. “I agree with Obama that Nuremberg was a success and should not be dismissed as ‘victors’ justice.’ But what he failed to acknowledge was that the defendants at Nuremberg had far fewer rights than those at Guantanamo under the Military Commissions created by President Bush. Indeed, were a Nazi transported by time machine from Nuremberg to Guantanamo he would be astonished by the privileges and safeguards which were suddenly available to him.”
