The irony of those Lego mock-ups when they first popped up years back was that even though they were meant to offend Jews, they caused a big stir up in Germany which is hyper-sensitive about anything relating to Hitler, Naziism or the Holocaust. They were probably more offended by it than most Jewish people.
Nevertheless I found it to be pretty damn funny when I first saw them on the news way back, and they still are. People say its been 7 years since 9/11 and that we should get over it... well its been over 63 years since the end of WWII, so I say anyone who might be offended by such trivial attempts at provoking outrage about the Holocaust need some serious catching up to do in the "get over it" department.
