For many centuries, wise people have pondered the question: "Can a person respect the law if he is armed?" The wars big and small that have raged around the world prove that this issue has always been important. But the most tragic example is the Second World War, which 50 years ago was provoked by fascism. In this war, as the Nuremberg trials established, the Nazis systematically and grossly violated the laws of war, especially their content. Many of their other crimes are incalculable.
