The Jewish online auction giant eBay has removed at least 15 "Nazi-themed" toys — including SS guard figurines and play Wehrmacht tanks — from its listings.
"The toys violated eBay’s policy against products that promote hate or violent ideologies", according to the Jewish News.
Among its prohibited items are anything that promotes "anti-Semitic stereotypes", as well as "Historical Holocaust-related and Nazi-related items, including reproductions, any item that is anti-Semitic or any item from after 1933 that bears a swastika [and] media identified as Nazi propaganda." Third Reich German coins are an exception.
Other online retail giants, including Amazon and Etsy, also have removed items "promoting anti-Semitism" and "conspiracy theories" following Jewish-Liberal backlash.
