The Jerusalem Post reports that the umbrella organization representing Holocaust survivors in Israel has asked YouTube to take down the following spoof showing Hitler throwing a tirade over Tel Aviv’s lack of parking (there’s also a version with English subtitles).
Apparently no one has the heart to tell the group that there are countless YouTube parodies using the same Hitler scene. Here are just a few (warning: Hitler has a foul mouth):
- Hitler finds out that the Dallas Cowboys lost
- Hitler gets banned from XBox Live
- Somebody stole Hitler’s car
- Hitler hates paparazzi
Depending on where you click, Hitler finds the running gag offensive or amusing. (As for me… let’s just say I like the Producers.)
Prediction: It won’t be long before we see "Hitler finds out that survivors are trying to pull his YouTube videos."
