Nazis are the extreme example of following orders. I'm not sure how responsible an individual can be for his actions when under the command of a brutal dictatorship. It's difficult to take a moral position on this either way. I'm not a big fan of dragging 100-year old men from their care homes to see out their last days in court. That isn't justice, it's an inhumane waste of time and money. This should have happened a long time ago if it's something that has to happen.
