( ... I've got to ready for work).
Jambo is right. Military tactics were not at all the cause or need for Nuremberg. The trial was unprecedented because the crimes were unprecedented. And yes, by definition any unprecedented legal proceeding can have it legality "questioned" ... technically. Enter Titus' specialty - questioning history's defining moments on a technicality, causing the subsequent ripping of hair out by the root.
And I'll just add that the trials also served as the most efficient way to expose the breadth and scope of Nazi atrocities, which was as necessary to humanity as the convictions themselves.
