Is it possible the Amazon is unaware of this? The person that let that thru should be fired.

They are completely aware, and have basically stated that they don't want to practice censorship.
"Amazon did not immediately respond to a request for comment from ABCNews.com. But according to the website Business Insider, Amazon issued a statement defending the book's place in the online store.
"Amazon believes it is censorship not to sell certain books simply because we or others believe their message is objectionable. Amazon does not support or promote hatred or criminal acts, however, we do support the right of every individual to make their own purchasing decisions," the company said."
