One of the issues addressed at the Nuremberg Trials is the moral responsibility of individuals when given orders that should not be obeyed
Explanation:
Nazi soldiers were given orders to kill millions of innocent civilians in violation of international law. The question answer at the Nuremberg Trials was does obeying orders excuse the actions of an individual in doing something morally and legally wrong.
The answer is that there are some orders that must be disobeyed. Being given an order to do something illegal does not excuse the actions of an individual in committing an crime.
