Excerpts of Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” To Be Reprinted in Germany

[MMI]

Then there will be a flurry and a fuss about nothing in 2015, when copyright is lifted. I say this because I can foresee copies of the books being marketed using the fact that copyright has been lifted as the advertising angle ... but you can read Mein Kampf already: Project Gutenberg has an English translation online; Amazon will sell you any of several editions; the Kindle versions are available at less than a tenner ... 2015 - So what?

Banning or restricting its publication would be as futile as forbidding the sea to come up onto the shore, in fact, it would make the book more attractive, and in my opinion, it will be important for historians to understand Hitler's political philosophy for centuries to come, as they try to explain the reasons for World War II.

Yes, true. But publishing it in paper like this must have been excessively painful for any remaining holocust survivors, or their relatives. They have protested, obviosly, I mean, you cannot really expect anything else.

Also, it is not only history, the nazis are still with us.
