German Court Fines Bishop for `Holocaust Denial' Remarks

A German court has imposed a fine on an ultra-conservative British
bishop for denying that Jews died in Nazi gas chambers. If Richard
Williamson challenges the order, he could face a trial in Germany. A
court in the Bavarian city of Regensburg imposed the 12,000-euro
($17,00) fine, Williamson's lawyer Matthias Lossmann said on Tuesday.
The bishop has until November 9 to react to the court order.
Williamson told Swedish television in an interview late last year that
he believed no more than 300,000 Jews were killed in the Holocaust and
that none died in gas chambers.

The Holocaust-denying views of an Italian academic at the University
of Rome 'La Sapienza,' Antonio Caracciolo, has sparked calls for him
to resign. The 59-year-old philosophy of law researcher's blogs have
described the World War II Nazi Holocaust - or extermination of six
million Jews - as "a legend" and claim the gas chambers "are one of
many 'truths' which need to be verified." The head of Rome's Jewish
community, Riccardo Pacifici, said it will take legal action against
the academic .. .. "We are confident the university won't be the only
institution to act and that the whole of civil society will react." In
2007, Italy's previous center-left government, headed by Romano Prodi,
passed a law making Holocaust-denial a crime.
