The Anti-Defamation League is calling out retailer Urban Outfitters for a shirt the Jewish group claims bears a symbol strikingly similar to the one used by Nazis to identify Jews during the Holocaust.
The sale of the shirt, which comes on the heels of National Holocaust Remembrance Day, is just the latest in a long line of offensive products from Urban Outfitters, the ADL tells FoxNews.com.
The manufacturer of the shirt [Wood Wood], which retails for $100, reached out to the ADL with an apology Monday, assuring that the logo consists of “patchwork and geometric patterns” and that it was not a Star of David.
Urban Outfitters is presently saying nothing.
Okay, "strikingly similar?" That is to say the least. Yes, the notorious "Jude" star used by the Nazis was yellow and this one is not - see, instead it's on a yellow shirt.
And it's just geometric patterns!
Be honest, people - at first glance, what did it make you think of?
