The publisher of a new critical edition of Mein Kampf has said that more copies of the Adolf Hitler manifesto will have to be printed due to enormous demand.

"It's available like any other book, but because of the special circumstances there is a certain waiting time," a spokeswoman for the Institute of Contemporary History (IfZ) in Munich said.

The IfZ published its annotated version of Hitler's infamous text at the start of this year, saying that it wanted to make sure a critical version was available as soon as the copyright expired. ...

From the article: Until now, the work had been owned by the Bavarian state government, which prevented any new editions being published in Germany for the standard term of 70 years after the death of the author.

Even more popular, maybe, because the German people are getting fed up with their country being hijacked and turned over to islamists? I’m telling you it’s this kind of carp that allowed Hitler to rise on the people’s dissatisfaction with the government.

Ugh! I struggled through this horrible screed years ago. It was the literary equivalent to listening to Yoko Ono.

Mein Kampf is the number one read book of all time in the “Palestinian” lands. Above their Koran. (Misspelled on purpose.) Ever since the Grand Mufti in WWII, it has been required reading.

Go figure.

Uh-oh. First Austria passed a law requiring Muslim imams to conduct their religious services in German. And now Mein Kampf is selling out.

One can only hope.

Freedom of religion is lovely ---- provided

That no religion that incorporates, inseparably, anything like Sharia Law, which trumps secular law shall EVER be accepted or even tolerated.

If only people would have read it when it first came out ... but then too, it was banned in Boston.

Do these people realize that Mein Kampf is downloadable online for FREE? Or has Germany blocked those websites?
