Usually it represents a lie with racist if not a subversive purpose, a barely disguised apology of crime.

This new law follows one which has been voted on at the European level.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUsually, those who commit apology of crime, exalt their perpetrators. However, in the case of Holocaust denial, those who spread it in bad faith, absolving the perpetrators (who exactly 70 years ago were found guilty by the Nuremberg Tribunal, before a court of men, but also of history) accuse the victims and their descendants of making up the persecutions, in a deceitful and hateful way,\u201d he points out. <\/p>\n<p>Satisfaction with the approval of the bill was expressed by the president of the UCEI Renzo Gattegna.<br \/>\n\u201cThe bill will represent an essential instrument in the fight against every form of hatred, without being detrimental to freedom of expression and historical research.
