The Pete Quiñones Show · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Supports. The US Army Military Law Review piece calls the IMT and subsequent trials 'the foundation for modern international law' and says the IMT established individual criminal liability and crimes against humanity.[2]
Supports. A law journal article states that after WWII 'a new form of legal order emerged almost overnight' and that the Nuremberg trials may be described as 'the birth of international criminal justice'.[3]
Supports. The Nuremberg Memorium states that the IMT 'served as a model for today's International Criminal Court' and that individuals were for the first time held accountable under international law.[4]
Supports. The Nuremberg legal-legacy analysis says the trials established new crimes and applied the principle of law to international aggression for the first time, and the AP report notes the trials' influence on the ICC today.[1][5]
Context. The extraction faithfully reflects the post's wording. The post's further claims about the Eichmann trial, 1989, and a Jewish state's privileges are not sourced and are not graded here.
