Israel Forces Hitler Store Owner To Remove Knives

Remember the infamous Hitler store in Gaza, with knife mannequins?
According to NY Times hate journalist Diaa Hadid, the knives are out. So to speak (hat tip: Gidon Shaviv).
This is what clothing shops in Gaza look like these days. #knives pic.twitter.com/7xr3V6paL8

@KhaledAbuToameh was in gaza 2 weeks ago and the knives were already put away. Was also just one ship. When was this photo taken?

Spoke to the owner. Said Israeli officials who he needs to get his clothes in told him to put away the knives or forget about his business..

Nice “store-washing” on Hadid’s part. The photo was making the rounds less than a month ago – hardly “old.” Also, she does not seem to have an issue with the store being named “Hitler.”
But good on Israel and COGAT for forcing the store owner to put away the knives. I would like to think they also got him to change the name of the store.
