Hitler Art Seller Doing His Duty

MONTREAL (Reuters) – A Montreal auctioneer
has put four sketches by Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler up for sale, sparking
outrage and condemnation in Canada’s Jewish community.

Iegor de Saint Hippolyte said Tuesday that the private auction, which also
includes two Christmas messages from the Nazi leader, would take place
on July 19 and last only for a few minutes.

He said the current owner of the six pieces wishes to remain anonymous,
and he declined to say how much he expected the sale to bring.Asked about
the morality of selling articles by and from Hitler, he said: "I am
simply doing my duty, which is to transmit history to other people and
to preserve objects that are important for humanity."

We thought that "just doing my duty" line went
out of style after Nuremburg. We hope our dear friend Heinrich
sees this news, as we are sure he will appreciate the chance to expand his
already extensive collection of Fascist and "expropriated" Art.
