Bizza 105 Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 ...I don't think you'll find it here: A leading Jewish group expressed outrage over a new Hitler-themed restaurant in the Indian financial capital Mumbai, accusing the owners of trivialising the Holocaust. The restaurant, which has a huge poster of Hitler prominently displayed at the entrance and features swastika decorations inside, opened last week at a party attended by top city officials and celebrities. "Adolf Hitler presided over the mass murder of six million Jews ... The Nazi imagery used in the new 'Hitler's Cross' restaurant denigrates the memory of the victims," Anti Defamation League Director Abraham Foxman said. The restaurant "does a dangerous disservice to the Mumbai community by downplaying the horrors of the Holocaust," he added in a statement. Mumbai's Jewish community, numbering around 5,000, has already appealed to the owners to change the name, but said they believed the unusually-themed restaurant to be the result of ignorance rather than malice. The restaurant owner said he had not realized the Nazi theme would upset so many people. "It's just that we wanted to give a different name. We wanted a good campaign. That's the main reason. Nothing else," managing director Puneet Shablok told India's private CNN-IBN television news network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 (edited) Will the resteraunt slowly but surely employ hostile takovers of the resteraunts on either side of it, with the nearby French resteraunt selling up to them without a fight?
