I remember a few years ago the BBC interviewed the Russian Nationalist Leader who was second in the polls for a time behind Yeltsin (I forget his name).

The interviewer asked why Nationalism in Russia had been so much more successful than in western European countries such as Le Pen in France or the BNP in the UK. He replied it's because he thought Russian Nazi's were ethnically superior to western European ones...

They do say, white supremicists, are the best argument against, white supremacy.

Turks have nothing to do with neo-nazis, idiot nazis and racist german bast***s. These idiots hate Turks, all Asians and even Medetarrinnean race. Anti semitism and Turkish culture are opposite. Our culture is to respect everyone, even your enemy with honor. How can you people learn such facts and try to use them against Turks, I cant understand...

People read these books because of the huge curiosity about Jews and close history. These topics are very popular in todays media and countries like Turkey are the main targets. To read that book doesnt make a person a nazi, or a racist idiot, but a person who is trying to learn some things about history.

There is another main reason about it. The theory of Khazar ancestry. Most of the Jewish people who were sacrificed by Hitler to build Zionists imaginary Megalo Israel were Turkic originated Khazars from Eastern Europe. They were only a "cow which gives milk" for the real Jews, Hebrews. To sacrifice them was an easy idea to make Hitler's dreams become real...

Come on guys,Turkey and Anti-semitism are too opposite things.

The ONLY reason that this book was sold so much is curiosity.The youngs in Turkey reads too few books in general;so when they find an acquaintance book which its writer and it are famous,they buy it.

Also its price is low;it is 3-4 YTL(2-3 dollars)

"Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” is one of the best selling books in Turkey with more than 50.000 copies sold in the last year. "

This is interesting indeed. But 50.000 copies doesn't mean that it is best seller. There were books whose copies sold around 500.000 last year. It seems like this news have been selected to show something negative for Turkey again as an outcome of a Nazi mind. Anyway.....

In fact, I was planning to buy the book “Mein Kampf”. The reason is that it is really very cheap and Hitler even if I do not like him at all was a great leader (not great man). I wonder how could he rationalize his acts? What were his ideals, motives, opinions, propaganda tools and methods....etc. 

Secondly, as being Turks I think it would be good for us to know our future enemies if we enter (or even if not enter) into EU.  There are lots of Nazi bustards, many of them hidden, in EU. Future's Jews may be Turks in Europe.

A book is an important cultural object. It is not important sharing opinions of the author. Nazis were burning books. Will we do the same thing? What is this fear about Nazis in Europe? Don't you trust yourself? Do you think your countries become a Nazi ruled one? I think all Europeans should read this book to understand how a man could be so damp but at the same time could be elected democratically and started a bloody campaign. As being a Turk it is good to know them if we want to challenge them. And also we have to learn the history of Europe in which we are trying to enter.

Book is book. It is not important if it was written by Hitler or not. The important thing is the capacity of the readers. You can find very valuable informations by reading other's experiences, opinions.

But what is the source of this news? We do not know. They may have chosen this news coming from another source in their newspaper too.

I am sure that Stalin's and Mao's books are also sold in big numbers but I do not know the numbers. A few years later we may see that Stalin's book are sold 50.000. Those people like Mao, Stalin, Lenin, Che and Hitler are very important political figures of world history. Why not Hitler?

If I could find cheap books of Stalin or Mao I would certainly buy them. 

I think there is a misunderstanding here. I do not say that people who are opposing to Turkish membership to EU is enemies of Turkey. I am also against of being a part of EU.

But there is a hidden Nazizm in Europe too.

In Turkey there are tens of thousands Jews live. They have elected to parliament. One of my best friends is a Jews and in Turkey we do not assume them different from other part of the society. 

On the other hand in France there are serious acts against Jews. They are attacking Jew cemeteries and doing other nusty things. But in Turkey we do not have that kind of attacks. A few years ego a few men of Al Kaida who had been trained in Afganistan has blown up two synagogs. That was all I know. These attacks are related with Arap-Jews issues. They did similar things in Spain too. These are not related with Hitler.

But instead of dealing with the Nazi activities in Europe and especially in France why Turkey?   

I heard a company in Poland is also trying to publish Mein Kampf...btu I'm nto against it, one German post war chancellor once remarked that the easiest way to distract somebody from Nationalsocialism is to let him read Mein Kampf, it's bad written and contaisn garbage galore...anyways, there's no need to acquire Mein Kampf, just enter it in google and you get the whole book to read for free...

Originally posted by RED GUARD     I would love to read that book! Not for pilosophic (excuse my spelling) reasons, I just want to see how much of an idiot Hitler was.

Just read a summary of WW2 if you want to see that.
