[Kathleen Conklin and Jean are discussing the concept of war criminals]

Jean: Well, you can't jail a whole country, you know. They needed a scapegoat. He was the unlucky one who got caught.

How many bombs were dropped that did the exact same thing? How many homes were destroyed? And who's in, who's in jail for that?
