sales of Mein Kampf

Why is the accompanying picture in this flimsy article in the Guardian showing Arabic edition of the lousy book?  Why the Arabic?  This is a Western book sold mostly in Western languages.  There isn't--to my knowledge--even an Arabic translation from the German original. The published versions are from English or French.  Also, sales of the book, or free downloading, don't mean endorsements.  I bet you that many Western Christian haters of Islam also download free copies of the Qur'an.  It doesnt mean that the contents of the book are gaining traction.
