I know that Simon Wiesenthal isn't all that well liked in Austria (maybe the understatement of the year). The Los Angeles based Center which bears his name is struggling for meaning so many years after the Holocaust so this to me seems a knee jerk reaction from them.

I see these works as no different than other Nazi era memorabilia. If people want to sell and can find others who will spend that kind of cash on these works it is their right.
