How is this an anti-semetic attack? They stole a sign that belonged to the Nazis, not the Jews :?


And it's in Poland.

It's anti-semetic as the camp is now a shrine of sorts and a reminder of the atrocities of the Nazis, it's hardly a well intentioned act?

Very sombre and quite a freakish place tbh, the atmosphere can be quite heavy.Most unsettling thing was the display of shoes- it's very hard to comprehend the figures that died in the camp but when you seesome of the physical evidence it makes the skin crawl.

I'm not disagreeing that it's a terrible crime and pretty low for a human to do when you consider what went on there, but it's simply not anti-semitic. As a simple act of theft it does not discriminate against, nor be hostile towards, nor be prejudiced against Jews

Sorry, just giving reasons why it might be seen that way- until the thieves are caught and their motives discovered then there's no way of knowing.
