It's been found in three pieces, and apparently it was done by common criminals who were in it just for the money.

Read it here.

I wonder how the thieves hoped to sell it, given how famous it is?

For real. Something like that is so high profile, you have no hope of unloading it. If they were to try to sell it, they would either be accused of making a copy, or have the authorities called pretty quickly.

A dumb crime if done for money. It was funneh just for the lulz.

It's a symbol, nothing more, nothing less.

I remember seeing the one at Dahcau, but I if I remember correctly it was part of the gate and not a separate sign.

People who collect will buy anything just to have it.  Just look at all the art that has been stolen that nobody can brag about having but they do

They should just nuke the site. Couldn't give a shite about the holocaust, I'd rather worry about the present.
