Adolf Eichmann |
Eichmann's trial on April 1961 in Jerusalem |
Eichmann was declared sane by six psychiatrists, he had a normal family life and observers at his trial described him as very average. Given that there appears to be nothing particularly unusual about Eichmann, we must face the uncomfortable possibility that his behaviour was the product of the social situation in which he found himself, and that under the right circumstances we may all be capable of monstrous acts.
