The question was whether Eichmann had lied when he said: “I never killed a Jew or, for that matter, I never killed a non-Jew.... I never gave an order to kill a Jew nor an order to kill a non-Jew.” The prosecution, unable to understand a mass murderer who had never killed (and who in this particular instance probably did not even have the guts to kill), was constantly trying to prove individual murder.
