The American Jewish Committee (AJC) is to sue online bookseller Amazon for selling extreme right-wing books, the AJC’s Berlin office announced Friday.
According to the AJC, around 50 books on sale on Amazon’s German website contain anti-Semitic sentiments, trivialise National Socialism, and deny the Holocaust.
Some of the books have been classed as endangering to youth, a statement by the AJC said. Amazon are also accused of advertising other books by the same authors on the Google search engine.
Deidre Berger, director of the Jewish Committee’s Berlin office, said in a statement, “It is unacceptable that books are being sold on Amazon.de that can otherwise only be found in specifically right-wing bookshops.”
“We cannot let the spread of internet sales erode laws that ban Holocaust denial and incitement to hatred of minorities in Germany,” the statement added.
The AJC is calling on Amazon to remove all the books in question from its catalogue immediately.
Amazon spokeswoman Christine Höger responded by promising that the company would check its bookseller’s conditions in relation to the books, but added that Amazon was a retailer, not a “regulatory institution.”
“Private companies cannot and should not judge the contents of the media, as they do not have the expertise to do so,” Höger said in a statement.
According to Höger, companies like Amazon are dependent on courts, state regulators and censors for such judgements. “The accusation that Amazon specifically advertises books with National Socialist contents is inaccurate and offensive to Amazon employees,” the statement added.

I thought the US-UK-Jewish-Empire fought to liberate the Germans from an accused dictatorship!??
If so, so oppression of the German people would never happen again should we have not granted them absolute freedom of Speech!? Right to Bear Arms!?, the human right to Think! as they wish without anyone persecuting them at all!!
Wow! You mean the Bible was actually right when it says “Lucifer is the master deceiver”?
Or when fake Christians mutter the frase they do not understand themselves “The Devil is the prince of the air waves”? …
I am deeply troubled here people.
Look (What are the air waves telling us to do now??..)
Looks like Lucifer tricked us into fighting on His side just as the scripture said would be done.
People, you have been lied to on a global scale these last 100 years.
All is now lost until Jesus comes back in person, and all who have stood with Lucifer will be swept away into the Lake Of Sulfur
Have you seen the FEMA coffins?? With the fake Swine Flu from the nigBama’s Baxter Labs in the Ukraine, this looks a LOT more credible.

Yes, I’ve seen the coffins. And you are right, it does look a lot more credible.
Hey talmudHater, what FEMA genocide in America? I live in the US and have never heard of it. Is there a video about it at youtube?
Looks like the Jews are running Germany.
No free speech in Germany? Wow! I’m glad I live in the US!
No wonder people hate the haters of free speech. We all know the game is, but the extent of the evil never stops growing and everyday seems to turn over a new rock for these cock-a-roaches to scurry from. Too bad more people do NOT speak out about jewish terror and with the heat on over 9/11 I would think that the curtain of repression will come down sometime after the attack of Iran. Adolf Hitler was the ONLY person to speak in favour of the white race after the FEMA genocide in America but by then it really will be too late.
