14)  The Trial of Adolf Eichmann
Fifteen years after the end of World War II, Nazis were back in the headlines -- by way of Argentina. Agents of the Israeli secret service had tracked down Adolf Eichmann, a key figure in the Nazi holocaust. Elobarate security and extraordinary testimony were the hallmarks of a trial in Isreael. It revealed the inner workings of the Nazi elite during a dark chapter in modern history.
Of all the Nazi leaders who escaped after the Second World War, none was hated more than Adolf Eichmann. He was one of the Nazi's chief executioners, and the evil mind which devised the 'Final Solution' - the attempt to exterminate the Jewish race from Nazi occupied Europe. He was a man determined to demonstrate his German purity. In 1934 he became a member of the SS. He killed not only Jews en masse, but was also responsible for the calculated deaths of twenty-seven RAF prisoners... Justice, however, lay in wait for Eichmann. Many concentration camp survivors broke down as they gave evidence in one of the trials of the century. Sitting in a bullet-proof glass, Eichmann calmly protested his innocence as he awaited the verdict that would decide his fate.
