00:04The building in this compound has been rushed to completion in order to serve as the temporary
00:09courthouse in which the state of Israel will bring Adolf Eichmann to trial.
00:16The 15-year hunt is over. Adolf Eichmann, most elusive of the major Nazi war criminals,
00:24will be tried in what some people call the trial of the century.
00:30I am against the trial.
00:31Why?
00:32I don't feel one man can pay for the crime of killing six million Jews.
00:36Do you think it's a good idea to remind people of all these things again?
00:39The responsible persons are dead now. This doesn't do any good.
00:45More than 700 reporters and cameramen have come to Jerusalem.
00:49This is always a page one story.
00:51There will be 750 spectators in the auditorium, and the accused man will step into a cabin of bulletproof glass.
00:58Adolf Eichmann, you have killed the killing of millions of Jews.
01:04There was nothing else left, I had to remember what was allowed to say.
01:10No one is now in doubt that Eichmann is going to have a fighting defense.
01:14No one is now in doubt that Eichmann is going to have a fighting defense.
01:17Do you see here that Eichmann can actually pack a fighting defense?
01:23It is a unusual judge.
01:26And you have to use unusual methods to pack a fighting defense.
01:32That all his behavior, that all his attitude were normal.
01:35And there are all the strong ones here.
01:38What do you think it's not?
01:39We can become Eichmann without being able to be normal.
01:47Let's go! Let's go!
01:49Okay.
02:01Let's go!
