Amazon pulls Auschwitz Christmas ornaments

A Polish museum has criticised US e-commerce giant Amazon for selling Christmas ornaments decorated with images of the Nazi German death camp Auschwitz-Birkenau.
The museum at the site of the former camp in southern Poland tweeted screenshots of the items showing train tracks and barracks and requested that Amazon remove them from their site.
“Selling ‘Christmas ornaments’ with images of Auschwitz does not seem appropriate. Auschwitz on a bottle opener is rather disturbing and disrespectful,” the museum tweeted.
It added later that Amazon appeared to have removed the items – but then posted a follow-up saying it had discovered others.

Christmas is a big part of American culture. I have Jewish friends who enjoy Christmas very much. They even put up a tree and exchange presents. They also love the shopping madness associated with the Holidays.

Amazon for selling Christmas ornaments
I don't think Amazon was necessarily selling this ornament. Looking at the screenshot, it looks like other sellers were selling them on Amazon's platform. This item probably just made it through their filters.
