(Disclaimer: I went back two pages, which took me to 2009 and I didn't see anything similar to this. A few Hitler threads but nothing specific, unless, of course, someone mentioned it in a reply.)
The question is simple but the answer may not be.
Let us suppose that Hitler was found and captured by the Allies. Should he have been tried as a war criminal? Or would execution upon seeing him be acceptable?
This question is inspired by something I discussed with a classmate today about Osama bin Laden. I said Osama should have been given a trial but my classmate disagreed, saying he was a war criminal who took responsibility for everything he has done.
