why are they being removed?

outside the torture of many mutants to create super-weapons like Wolverine and Deadpool they have the dubious "honor" of also hosting the Neverland concentration camp - the closest X-Men got to an accurate (if still fantastical) depiction of the Nazi death camps, right down to a system where they forced prisoners to have a mark on their hand : a red M signalling "unwanted" mutants, who were then led into gas chambers and killed.

Even in a series like X-Men, where half their villain population is based on fascism, Weapon X (especially in Neverland) were Nazi proxies.. sure Sinister was manipulating them but I'm sure they wouldn't of cared much either way as they were already established villains way before he took over and ramped their heinous levels up by 11 (as Sinister is prone to do, being the CM he is).
