Thai cell phone with Nazi symbols

I-Mobile , a wireless communications company in Thailand has launched two mobile phones (609i and 609) with Nazi symbols and insignias printed on them, reports Isreal Today.

"The phones are designed with three penguins dressed in striped inmate uniforms and helmets saluting to a swastika.

I-Mobile is a daughter company of “Smart,” one of the largest telecommunications companies in Thailand.

The Israeli Embassy is planning on asking “Smart” to stop manufacturing the offensive phones and remove them from the shelves."
