Yet you say exactly nothing about the statement I showed.

Your statement was dealt with, unfortunately you didn't understand what you was quoting.
As Speer was being tried entirely on the work of his ministry then you need the evidence presented not just that line you quoted, all the evidence is on that website.
Including as an on topic bonus a nice little quarterly statistic on how many slaves were worked to death in the camps supplying slaves to the shipyard where the Nazi U-boat in question was constructed.
Quote:
No, I can't. Why don't you tell me. And while you're at it, explain what Speer was charged with for each type.
|
Why not read it?
After all if Speer personally requests in writing that Himmler sends him 100,000 Hungarian jews as slaves for the underground arms and aircraft factories that Hitler wanted built then Speer is personally guilty both in their deportation and eventual deaths.
Vernichten durch arbeit is the particular category of slave labour Speer facilitated there.
Quote:
Again you stoop to condescension. Why don't you explain it to me?
|
Its a well known example, does it need explaination?
Quote:
That sounds very general.
|
Actually its very specific, Leipzig is responsibility of command.
Quote:
Was Speer specifically charged with murder? If he was convicted, why wasn't he executed?
|
The charges were general, not all the crimes.
As for execution, most of judgements made little sense and had no bearing on the severity of the crimes.
Quote:
I don't know. It seems to me that he would be.

It seems to me that all of the doctors who murdered prisoners in medical experiments at the concentration camps would be deserving of the highest penalty the courts could impose...it didn't happen though.
Quote:
Your emphasis has been on "other counts". I've tried to show that, even according to someone in the know Slave Labor was the only real charge.
|
Slave labour covered such a wide range of crimes against humanity and war crimes, its the whole scope of the industry which he ran.
Quote:
Can you show specifically where? I've shown that his charges were quite limited. You've said a lot and shown nothing.
|
Sorry, but you havn't, you need to view the evidence presented at the trial to understand the extent of what he was charged with in the "
entirely" of the slave labour program he ran.
Quote:
My charge is specific. You invariably do your best to condescend to your targets. You never provide facts, but tell people they should know what you claim to, and treat them like recalcitrant children.
|
Sorry but there have been plenty of facts presented, feel free to check them.
Quote:
I said I didn't know. You tried to test me with more questions. That is indeed a game, and you play it very well.
|
Yes questions, the economic plunder policy was first implemented in Austria, then improved for the Sudetanland before being polished for Czechoslovakia, by the time of Poland it was well worked out and by Russia it was a well oiled official operation of looting and plunder worked in co-operation by the Nazi ministries covering industry, agriculture, finance and all three branches of the Nazi military.
Its all on your link.
Quote:
Yes. He did indeed say "entirely".
|
So entirely it is then.
I suppose that must also include his boasting to the Gauliters about personally sending 10,000 POWs as slave labour to the arms factories.
Quote:
Speer was not charged with murder. He was not charged with anything else. Whatever the "aspects" you're talking about may be, they don't seem to have much to do with the question of the charges against him.
|
The charges against him?
Quote:
According to the man on the scene the charges against him were relatively minor.
|
I wouldn't call crimes against humanity and war crimes minor.
