Subject: Adolf Hitler waxwork removed from Indonesian museum
Written By: Philip Eno on 11/11/17 at 9:30 am
A life-size model of Adolf Hitler used for "selfies" by visitors to an Indonesian museum has been removed. Pictures shared on social media show people grinning as they pose with the Nazi leader in front of an image of the gates of Auschwitz concentration camp. It was only when the international community reacted with outrage that the De ARCA Statue Art Museum realised it had caused any offence. The museum, in Jogjakarta, Java, said it had only wanted to educate. "We don't want to attract outrage," the museum's operations manager, Jamie Misbah, told news agency AFP.
