The Consumerist has been trying to get Walmart to do something about this for almost three months:

If this was a t-shirt with even a flattering picture of Mohammed, Walmart would have fixed this in a couple of days. Muslim rights groups would have gone ballistic about the horrible insensitivity of it all, and there would have been not a couple of dark threats about how this is alienating Muslim youth from American culture. The LA Times would be running specials about pervasive Islamophobia for a good two weeks after Walmart removed the t-shirts. Hell, we might even be seeing statements from Democratic members of Congress.

But the response from the American Jewish community to Walmart selling what is actually becoming a Nazi collector item? Nada. Now school vouchers. Those things have to be stamped out of existence. If we allow vouchers on Monday, Jewish kids all over the country will be crossing themselves by Wednesday. So let's focus on that.

But sales of t-shirts with Nazi insignia and breathtaking indifference to what ought to be widespread Jewish concerns? Not anything worth getting worked up about.

Where's the outrage about this? Why aren't American Jewish groups all over this? Let's review: Walmart is selling Nazi t-shirts! Where are the boycott calls? Where are the letter writing campaigns? Why isn't the CEO of Walmart on TV right now apologizing because they've been knowingly selling t-shirts with Nazi insignia for three months?

How do we expect to stop the slow slide into pervasive, every-day anti-Semitism when the world's largest retailer can't be bothered to stop selling Nazi paraphernalia - and when Jewish groups can't be bothered to care? (photo via Consumerist)
