Eichmann und das Dritte Reich plot

On December 15, 1961, Adolf Eichmann was sentenced to death by the Israeli war crimes tribunal in Jerusalem for crimes against humanity. The history of the 'Third Reich' began in 1933 when Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany. A few months later, the career of SS-er Eichmann began. His job was to "cleanse" Germany of the Jews from behind his desk. In doing so, Eichmann made himself complicit in the genocide of more than six million Jews and a smaller number of gypsies and other opponents of the Nazis.
