| Pedro Varela Geiss in court |
BARCELONA (El País / Jesús García) Adolf Hitler has landed a Spanish neo-Nazi in legal hot waters. Pedro Varela Geiss, the Barcelona librarian who was jailed for disseminating genocidal ideas, will sit on the dock again soon. But this time it will not be for selling books that denigrate blacks and homosexuals, or for saying that the Holocaust was a "myth" made up of "six million soap bars." This time, Varela - who feels he is the victim of a persecution, to the extent of comparing himself with Jesus Christ and Joan of Arc - is indicted on more prosaic charges: violating intellectual property laws by publishing and distributing Mein Kampf, the bible of National Socialism.>>>
