I am, I would love to have seen him stand trial next to Eichmann. I would have loved, even more, to see what people like Hannah Arendt would have made of his trial and legacy. We could have potentially avoided so many of the current ramifications if we had had an opportunity to see him challenged and his arguments defeated. His suicide in many ways prevented all, in his side and ours, from getting a proper resolution to one of the darkest passages of human history. So yes, his suicide was sad in many ways.

Why next to Eichmann? Do you mean 'at Nürnberg'?

Time has shown us again and again that if you give a platform to people with dangerous beliefs even under the guise of rubbishing it, all it does is give them oxygen.

I've lost friends to suicide, it sucks for everyone involved. But people have a right to an opinion about the victim's chosen life path. An extreme example, you sad Hitler committed suicide?
