why wasn't the British royal family, British & French government authorities tried for inhuman activities?

Question

The european powers part of the allied forces did inhuman activities in Asia & Africa. They were involved in slave trade, occupation of other countries, shot and jailed freedom fighters like dogs, and so on. So why not compare them to Hitler? Why not try the Royal families, and leadership for these and hang them like saddam.

Answer 1

They say that history is written by the winners..............

I have no doubt that our western civilisations were responsible for atrocities at some stages in our history. The relevant word in the previous sentence is "history". Saddam was tried and executed for crimes that he perpetrated, not for crimes that his predecessors carried out.

We cannot hold our current leaders responsible for the crimes of their forbears - lets apologise for what has been, move on and ensure it doesn't happen again.
