Reason
Briefly summarizes the end of the Adolf Eichmann trial, noting that the Israeli court found him guilty and that he was to be hanged. Eichmann, the "architect of the Holocaust", was kidnapped by Israeli agents from Argentina in 1960 and flown to Israel to stand trail for his role in the Holocaust. The resulting fallout from the kidnapping provoked international controversy, while the trial itself was an international media sensation, and is widely credited for having brought the Holocaust out from the shadow of WWII and establishing it as an independent event that occurred concurrently with WWII.
