I kind of agree with this, but I think there are more sensitive ways of handling it, than a lifesize waxwork of him.
Err...in a waxwork museum?!

Hitler was a gigantic figure of modern history. Now I don't know about you but I have always thought that the waxwork models in waxwork museums represent figures from history. Having Hitler's waxwork in a museum hardly means the museum is rallying up neo-Nazis.

As Stephen Kramer remarks in the BBC article you provided Lolly, "Erasing him from history is not going to bring the perished ones back".
