“When I joined the UN War Crimes Tribunal, it was a realization of the dream of justice, that finally after Nuremberg, the UN is going to put the accused on trial again! And I still believe that accountability that eradicates impunity is very, very important for transforming the sordid culture of politics and power that we see in the world. But we need to be humble about the fact that justice will not bring back the dead.”

When you see time after time there is no possibility of Nuremberg [war crime trials], we're doomed to have it repeated.” quote by Haskell Wexler](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/641/haskell-wexler-18987_accountability_the-idea-of-accountability-in-vietnam-ni_1992896.jpg)
