In response to an email, I added links for the Kristallnacht photos, which I should have done before. I apologize for lousy sourcing. Given the subject, I absolutely should have included links. And I should have been doubly careful about checking them, because I was wrong about one: it had been labeled Kristallnacht, but when I did an image search instead of a web search for it, it was of the Battle of Berlin. So I swapped that one out for a Kristallnacht picture from Yad Vashem, the Holocaust memorial and scholarship center, whose sourcing should be acceptable to all but the most fervent Holocaust deniers.

it kind of reminds me of Joey (Joseph) from “Friends” picking Joseph Stalin as his showbiz nickname.

My question is not whether they were so dumb, my question is if they really were German. Because there’s an onslaught of media every year, and it would be pretty impossible to miss it.

In reply to Van Wallach. Agreed. Only one photo is from Kristallnacht. Couldn't they get this right? There is a substantial photographic record available of synagogues burning all over Germany, shops with broken glass on the streets, Jewish men herded through the streets on their way to concentration camps.

The black and white photos at the bottom need some clarification. The first shows what look like Russian soldiers during World War II itself. The middle photo, of a burning synagogue, must be from Kristallnacht. The bottom photo looks like it was taken during a roundup in the Warsaw Ghetto, although it could be elsewhere. I doubt it was taken during Kristallnacht. In any case, the company’s marketing shows a stunning lack of historical knowledge–or, worse, knowledge untainted with any human decency.
