Time to Discuss


1. Do you find it morally acceptable to kill someone if it was ordered to you by a higher authority? For example, Daniel Ibrahim is ordered to kill 30 people by the federal authorities

2. What kind of punishment would you have given to these soldiers accused of the various war crimes in this case? 

3. Do higher authorities have the right to order you to do things that go against your moral and ethical values? If not, how can you combat a situation where you are ordered to do something beyond your moral boundaries?

4. Is it fair that the Jewish people were killed so quickly without any reason, yet the accused were put on trial and had a chance to fight for themselves? 

5. How has the Nuremberg Trail changed the course of the legal system in society? What impact did it leave?

6. Where do our morals come from? How are they developed? Is it in tuned in our nature through a supernatural force or is it developed through observation from birth? 

7. What is justice to you? Do you think Justice was served in this case?
