Germany's 'wilkommen' to Muslims will include publishing Mein Kampf
American Thinker ^ | 10/16/2015 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 10/16/2015 7:37:04 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Just as hundreds of thousands of Muslims are arriving in Germany at the invitation of Chancellor Merkel, the publication of Mein Kampf will resume after decades of suppression.  And it will be Merkel’s government that is paying for the publishing.  William Bigelow of Breitbart reports:

Mein Kampf, Adolf Hitler’s malevolent and malignant anti-Semitic manifesto, will be sold in German bookstores starting in January. The Munich-based Institute of Contemporary History (IFZ), funded by the German government, has edited an annotated version of the book, and will publish it after the copyright held by the German state of Bavaria expires in January 2016.

Needless to say, the remaining few Jews in Germany are not pleased:

Levi Salomon, spokesman for the Berlin-based Jewish Forum for Democracy and Against Anti-Semitism, said, “I am absolutely against the publication of ‘Mein Kampf,’ even with annotations. Can you annotate the Devil? Can you annotate a person like Hitler?”

Of course, Mein Kampf has been a perennial bestseller in Arabic, and it is doubtful many of the “refugees” will need to resort to the annotated German language-edition on offer from the federal government of Germany.  Still, the resumption of publication in Germany is not a welcome symbol of what lies ahead as the country changes.

Is everything old new again?

Mein Kampf, Adolf Hitler’s malevolent and malignant anti-Semitic manifesto, will be sold in German bookstores starting in January. The Munich-based Institute of Contemporary History (IFZ), funded by the German government, has edited an annotated version of the book, and will publish it after the copyright held by the German state of Bavaria expires in January 2016.

The ROP is not much different from nazism.

Germany's 'wilkommen' to Muslims will include publishing Mein Kampf

Eventually, it will include the Wehrmacht, and perhaps other things as well.

Well, if this isn’t a revolting development, I do not know what is.
Is Merkel revealing the future plans for Germany?

One difference is that the Nazis entertained their adoring crowds with far better music than the caterwauling from a minaret. Plus, they didn't use suicide bombers.

They were merely evil, not evil and insane.

Frau Merkel in her favorite attire. She is fulfilling Der Fuhrer's (Hitler) desire for Germany to be an Islamic Republic...

That term is obsolete (would be equivalent to writing about the U.S. Army Air Corps enforcing the "no-fly" zone in Iraq).

Merkel is still a communist and she’s softening up the EU so the Russians can just walk in and takeover

Mein Kampf has been a bestseller in the Muslim world since the 1930’s, where it is known as “My Jihad”.

Muslims from the Mufti of Jerusalem to Bosnians to Iraqis were allied with the Nazis in WWII.

You don’t suppose that.....Germany’s Muslim chickens....are coming home....to ROOST!!?

If you watched the “Million Man March - Justice or Else” in D this last weekend you would see that this same spirit is alive and well in America. Obama’s Pastor, Jeremiah Wright, was leading the call for Palestinian lives matter and the dismantling of “white supremacy” and the God of the whites...

Mein kampf should not be verboten.

Probably has just made it more alluring in Germany as forbidden fruit.

Free speech for the win.

It’s ironic in a way.

Germany accepting millions of muslim immigrants in penance for their nazi jew hating sins, thereby creating a new wave of fascist jew hatred instead.
