-Caveat Lector-
When I was doing research on the Holocaust I read about half of Hitler's
Mein Kamph. I got a copy from the local library. Reading it was important to
me in understanding clearly Hitler's motivations. In later discussing some
of my findings with "deniers" I found, to my surprize, that they had never
read the book. I believe that some of their assumptions would be put in
great peril if they were to read the book. For instance, one claimed to me
that Hitler invaded Poland in order to protect Germany from Soviet
communism. Of course, reading Mein Kamph would have made a great shambles of
this theory, since Hitler over and over writes about the need for Germany to
expand eastwardly, etc. (To say nothing of the 1920 Battle of Warsaw and the
1939 Ribbentrop agreement). It seems to me that banning books is one of the
crimes of Nazism and banning books is really a tribute to Hitler.
