Jews Blamed for Theft of Auschwitz Sign

[schrodinger's cat]

There are no clues 48 hours after the theft Friday of the infamous Arbeit Macht Frei - Work sets you free - sign from above the entrance gate to the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland.

While Poland is enlisting its finest investigators to solve the crime, its bizaareness is proving fertile ground for conspiracy theories on the Internet and in official responses.

Three of the usual suspects were immediately mentioned: the Jews, the Germans and the Russians. The infamous metal sign is so linked with the Jewish people, it has been said, it must be on its way to Jerusalem. Another theory: The Russians want to embarrass the Poles - or maybe the Poles wanted to embarrass the Russians before the 65th anniversary in January of the liberation of Auschwitz by the Red Army. The Germans are suspected of wanting to bring home something that belongs to them, in their opinion.

I wouldn't care if Jews did steal it.  I don't give a damm about Poland or it's Polaks, after what they did do the Jews.

I think it should have been left there. It's important for people to be able to see historical objects, even those tied with extreme evil, so that things like that aren't forgotten.

Yup, that dude also thinks the Jews stole his car and raped his daughter there while smoking Cuban cigarrs.

I wish Jews had stolen it.   They could put this sign up in Yesha as a symbolic gesture to show what the Israeli establishment is really all about by making war against them.  They are no different in this regard.   Only in this case they won't even allow Jews to do work of building their properties.

Polish police said, that a man in Sweden is behind it.
