X-Mas ornaments including a bottle opener featuring Auschwitz images were selling on Amazon, and thousands complained to Amazon before they were finally removed. The disgraceful items included the image of the famed train tracks leading to the entrance Auschwitz, where more than 1 million Jews were murdered,
The Auschwitz Memorial took to social media asking Amazon to remove to remove the items.
They wrote: “Selling “Christmas ornaments with images of Auschwitz does not seem appropriate. Auschwitz on a bottle opener is rather disturbing and disrespectful. We ask @amazon to remove the items of those suppliers.”
The items were eventually removed, but as of this posting, the seller is still active on Amazon.
