There were, in fact, no gas chambers at Dachau, so Wolf Hess was
fined for stating the simple truth, a truth that no reputable
historian would deny. But truth is literally no defense for a
German defendant facing charges of Holocau$t denial.

Nazi Leader's Grandson Fined Over Online Quotes

MUNICH, Germany (Reuters) - A grandson of Adolf Hitler's deputy
Rudolf Hess was fined for public incitement on Thursday after
putting remarks by Hess on the Internet.

Hess was quoted as saying there were no gas chambers in Dachau
concentration camp near Munich during the Second World War and
that the Americans installed them afterwards to scare tourists,
Munich district court said.

Wolf Andreas Hess, a 23-year-old student, had only been trying to
assemble historical documentation about his grandfather, the
defense counsel said.

The counsel said Hess was not trying to incite anyone, adding
that he had paid attention in his history lessons and knew there
was a Holocaust.

Hess was fined $1,184.

Beyond his grave in his Bavarian home town of Wunsiedel, Rudolf
Hess remains a source of fascination for Germany's small band of
neo-Nazis who regard him as a martyr and believe he was murdered
by his British captors.

Hitler dictated his book "Mein Kampf" to Hess while in prison in
1923-24. Hess fell into Allied hands in 1941 after parachuting
into Scotland in an apparent personal bid to broker peace with
Britain.

He was tried as a war criminal and sentenced to life
imprisonment. He was found dead in Berlin's Spandau prison in
1987 at the age of 93 after spending 46 years in jail.
