How is that possible? [short pause, he stands up] What I just saw. How is it possible?
Himmler.
Himmler wasn't second in command. You were. 1200 camps? What am I supposed to believe that you didn't know?
Anyone can fake an atrocity.
So you're saying the filming was a fake, that's your defence?
What would you have me say?
About the truth for once!
Why? So you can run and tell Jackson. My friend, your hypocrisy is stunning.
My hypocrisy?
You think American bullets and bombs don't kill people?! You vaporised 150,000 Japanese at the touch of a button. And you presume to stand in judgment on me for war crimes.
We had every right to defend ourselves.
How do you defend yourself on someone else's soil?!
There's a difference between us bombing war factories and civilians dying as collateral damage! And you building 1200 human slaughter houses designed to exterminate an entire race! And you know it!!
What do you think war is?!
Not what I saw today.
What do you think the Russian's do to German prisoners of war?! You have your freedom and I am a prisoner because you won and we lost, not because you are morally superior! This trial will be a farce in 15 years. Great conquerors are not thought of as murderers, Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great...
You're not Alexander the Great! You are a fat man in a cell. And you knew.
I have made a mistake. You are not destined for more. You will have an unhappy life, I think. It will all be overshadowed by this. By the time spent with me. You will write your volumes trying to relive it. The one moment in your life when you actually stood with greatness.
You think you're a great man? You think that that's your legacy?
At least I will have one. You will leave no mark on this world. I am the book! You are merely a footnote.
They're gonna kill you! They're gonna hang you by the neck till you piss yourself and die. Your wife will be a widow. Your daughter will be an orphan. And you will have done that to yourself. [Kelley knocks on the cell door to be let out, door opens. He glares at Göring and leaves]
