| | The purpose of Hannah Arendt’s book, Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil, is to focus on the trial of Adolph Eichmann in Jerusalem in 1961 and, specifically, the crimes he is charged with, his deeds under Hitler’s regime, and the extent to which justice is served by the trial. | | | Arendt begins her story of the trial proceedings discussing the grounds on which Eichmann was charged and the potential controversies surrounding the issue of justice. | | | Regardless of these controversies surrounding the case, Arendt makes clear that her task, as stated earlier, is to cover the trial of Adolph Eichmann in order to determine if justice was fulfilled. |

| | After all, if Eichmann was guilty and if the court reached that decision and sentenced him accordingly, then why quibble about the particular laws, jurisdictions, precedents, and so on which made the process possible? | | | Success or failure in dealing with the hitherto unprecedented can lie only in the extent to which this dealing may serve as a valid precedent on the road to international penal law. | | | Arendt goes to great lengths to argue that "genocide" is a fundamentally new crime (new in the sense that for the first time we are called upon to judge it in a court of law, not new in the sense that it has never happened before). |

| | As an aside, it is interesting to note that the Gestapo made use of Schutzhaft, a German word that essentially translates into “protective custody,” in other words the act of locking people up without judicial proceedings, sort of like Bush throwing Jose Padilla and Yaser Esam Hamdi in military prisons, sans legal representation. | | | According to an article published by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, five of “Adolph Eichmann’s Nazi assistants were recruited and employed by the Central Intelligence Agency after World War II, according to recently declassified intelligence documents” obtained by the National Security Archive through an FOIA request. | | | “For example, current records show that at least five associates of the notorious Nazi Adolf Eichmann worked for the CIA, 23 other Nazis were approached by the CIA for recruitment, and at least 100 officers within the Gehlen organization were former SD or Gestapo officers.” |
