Supreme Court Justice Robert L. Jackson, who was this country’s representative to the
International Conference on Military Trials in August 1945 and the chief prosecutor at the
Nuremberg war crimes trials, told his colleagues then that "we must make clear to the
Germans that the wrong for which their fallen leaders are on trial is not that they lost
the war, but that they started it. And we must not allow ourselves to be drawn into a
trial of the causes of the war, for our position is that no grievances or policies will
justify resort to aggressive war. It is utterly renounced and condemned as an instrument
of policy."
