Le Pen dismissive of gas chambers

Bonn - French far-right leader, Mr Jean-Marie Le Pen, was quoted yesterday as saying the Nazi gas chambers were worth "at most a few lines" in any 1,000-page long history of the second World War. Mr Le Pen, who faces charges in Germany for trivialising the Holocaust, told Der Spiegel magazine he was not afraid to enter Germany, where prosecutors want to put him on trial for calling the Nazi murder of six million Jews a "mere detail".
