Should we have made fun of Hitler as light comedy when the concentration camps were still running?

Sometimes if you're not looking for it you just don't notice it. Am I wrong for thinking this could happen?  It IS Kim Jong-Il… Gah, was just looking through the pics properly and realised they’re all ‘shooped.  It was the Moby one that made me question the legitimacy and look a little closer, then BAM I could see it in every shot.
