What Do You Think?

I wonder how much of the problem is how the wax figure is displayed verses how little we teach our youth exactly what the Nazi movement was about and the atrocities performed to the Jews as well as anyone that disagreed with the Nazi movement.

These days of political correctness so many schools refuse to teach the very barbaric realities of what happened in WWII both in Europe and in the Asian-pacific. Some areas even going so far as to teach that the Nazi death camps were not real.

As a result the kids to not realize just how dare I say demonically evil these leaders were and only see the positive aspects of what these people did.

Hitler Wax Figure Upsets British Jewish Group

A Jewish group in Britain has asked the Madame Tussauds wax museum in London to consider altering its wax figure of Adolf Hitler to make it appear more “vulnerable”.

The UK Zionist Federation made the request after visitors to the museum persisted in posing provocatively next to the Hitler figure, making “sieg heil” salutes and other inappropriate gestures.

A spokesman for the organization told The London Evening Standard on Wednesday that making the Nazi dictator look less “upright” and more “defeated” might discourage such behavior by museum visitors.

The organization made the call after Israeli holidaymakers who visited the museum complained they witnessed children copying the Nazi salute for family photographs. Madame Tussauds apologized to the tourists and assigned staff to prevent similar behavior.

“At the end of the day Hitler has a place in history,” Stefan Kerner, the UK Zionist Federation’s director of public affairs, told The Evening Standard. “I would like to see him in the Chamber of Horrors myself but he was a significant world leader.

“I have no problem with Adolf Hitler being displayed,” Kerner added. “However, we want to display him in a more vulnerable position or situation. Or he could be placed in a way that people can’t take photographs beside him.”

The Standard later found that despite the museum assigning “guards” to the Hitler figure, youngsters were continuing to pose with it.

A spokeswoman for Madame Tussauds told the newspaper, “We are standing by our position. If our members of staff see someone behaving inappropriately they will stop it.”
