Hitler's Final Speech at his Trial for Treason, March 27, 1924

Then, gentlemen, not you will be the ones to deliver the verdict over us, but that verdict will be given by the eternal judgment of history, which will speak out against the accusation that has been made against us. I know what your judgment will be. But that other court will not ask us: Have you committed high treason or not? That court will judge us, their quartermaster-general of the old army, its officers and soldiers, who as Germans wanted only the best for their people and Fatherland, who fought and who were willing to die. You might just as well find us guilty a thousand times, but the goddess of the eternal court of history will smile and tear up the motions of the state's attorney and the judgment of this court: for she finds us not guilty.¹

By evaluating the above paragraph, i find that Hitler is concerned about the consequence of being the prime leader of German's army into the war. He is persuating his innocence over all the afther math result of the German's army ( death of soldiers and the overthrow of the previous governement (weimar republic).
