Description

In his remarks at the September 28, 2007 symposium commemorating the adoption of the Genocide Convention, held at Case Western Reserve University School of Law, former war crimes prosecutor Henry T. King, Jr. described meeting Raphael Lemkin in Nuremberg's Grand Hotel in 1946. Lemkin first proposed the term "genocide" in his 1944 book Axis Rule in Occupied Europe. (1) Professor King said he found Lemkin to be a "crank," adding that "[a]t that time, he was unshaven, his clothing was in tatters and he looked dishevelled." King continued: Lemkin was not the only person at the time to express displeasure with the Nuremberg Tribunal's decision to leave unpunished Nazi atrocities committed against Jews and other minorities within Germany prior to the outbreak of the war on September 1, 1939.
