Portrait of Julius Streicher wearing his Nazi Party uniform.

Julius Streicher, the editor of the antisemitic newspaper Der Stürmer, was found guilty of “crimes against humanity” by the International Military Tribunal, and hanged. In its conviction, the IMT ruled that Streicher’s articles in Der Stürmer calling for the “annihilation of the Jewish race,” written when he knew of the mass killings of Europe’s Jews, constituted a direct and criminal incitement to murder.
