To the Jews that symbol represents hate and since Asia is not closed off from the rest of the world surely the marketing people at Coke would realize that at some point non-Asian people would see the robot. Once they came to that conclusion they should have used another symbol like the yin yang symbol or better yet just don't put a symbol on the robot at all. If you think about it that robot hardly looks peaceful, it looks like a warrior, so the symbol is still not appropriate.

Sorry but I don't believe in Political correctness just to please one group. Nobody in Hong Kong had a problem with this either.
Also both my Great Grandfather and my Great Uncle had to suffer through a Nazi concerntration camp. Neither of them were Jewish. My Great Grandfather died there but my Great Uncle made it out alive. He passed on a few years ago.

I think it's based on a Japanese Anime character.
