MUMBAI, India - A new restaurant in India’s financial hub, named after Adolf Hitler and promoted with posters showing the German leader and Nazi swastikas, has infuriated the country’s small Jewish community.

Hitler’s Cross, which opened last week, serves up a wide range of continental fare and a big helping of controversy, thanks to a name the owners say they chose to stand out among hundreds of Mumbai eateries.

Democrats would love it if Bush's photograph were juxtaposed next to Hitler's.

Considering that anti-semitism is becoming the fashion du jour, I'm not surprised. I bet the MSM focuses on how 'narrow-minded' those Jewish complainers are!

There are Communist-themed restaurants - busts of Lenin and murals of Communist chic. But International Socialism has killed and tortured orders of magnitude more people than National Socialism. If one is ok then why not the other?

Only if there's a large mural of "Hitler on Ice" on the main wall! Otherwise, not so much. :-\

The whole thing is rather ironic when considering the fact that the Swastika originates in India & among other cultures as well.

Nazi-ism is extinct. On the other hand, there are still communists who might be offended.

Unfortunately not. Neo-Nazis, Holocaust deniers and Islamofascists have revived it.
