“If this president could learn anything from the High Holidays, it’s that it’s OK to be wrong,” he told the TV station. “You’re making me uncomfortable, man, you’re supposed to be the president.”

Nazi Salutes Jewish Deli Menu
The cartoons on the catering menu for Highland Park's Max's Deli are raising eyebrows, as intended. 0 By Jonah Meadows (Patch Staff) - Updated August 31, 2017 3:39 pm ET
HIGHLAND PARK, IL — A North Shore deli's catering menu for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur was adorned with caricatures of a Nazi and a Sasquatch in response to the hate and violence on display this month in Charlottesville, Virginia. The frowning, blond-haired, uniform-clad figure wears an "I'm with Alt-Right" T-shirt and a swastika armband and salutes Hitler beside a menu in the style of a Torah scroll with such High Holiday favorites as latkes, brisket, matzo balls and kishke.
"Have I taken this too far?" asked Greg Morelli, 49, owner of Max's Deli in Highland Park and the creator of the provocative menu artwork. "Maybe. Or maybe I haven't taken it far enough," he said in an online message accompanying the image, which aims to show that racism and anti-Semitism remain an active threat.
On the bottom of the menu there's another image of a cartoon figure, as a Sasquatch is portrayed wearing a shirt proclaiming "I'm with Alt-Left." By portraying the "alt-left" as a mythical cryptid, Morelli suggests that the perceived threat from anti-fascist activists is a fantasy. While both Nazis and Sasquatch are "man-made," one of them is harmless, he said.

“If this president could learn anything from the High Holidays, it’s that it’s OK to be wrong,” he told the TV station. “You’re making me uncomfortable, man, you’re supposed to be the president.”
“hate and violence on display this month in Charlottesville, Virginia”
Man, they grab ONE incident (by one guy who used his car, even as others are punching and clubbing) and blow it into a whole trend.
“the perceived threat from anti-fascist activists is a fantasy.”
While ignoring the VOLUMINOUS violence from the LEFT, so-called “anti-fascists” (when they can spell).
This owner’s the worst type of whore. Looking to make himself some fast money through deplorable behavior. I hope he goes out of business.
“Morelli said the president deals with “alt-right” members like Steve Bannon, Trump’s recently departed White House aide who returned to conservative news website Breitbart. Morelli says the “alt-right” is dangerous to people like him because they are aligned with Nazis.
“There was one side to blame, the side that wears the swastika, the side that calls themselves the KKK, the side that calls themselves the ‘alt-right’,” Morelli said.”
Are there any business owners in the US who have common sense?!
Yes.
If that dude really thinks “antifa” gives a rat’s ass about Jews, then he’s a fool. People like him will be begging the right for protection when the left starts killing them off again.

Between this and the Billy Joel stupidity, I give up on the human race.
” I hate Illinois Nazis” said right before flooring the 74 Dodge ex-police car and making the Neo-Nazis jump off the bridge.
That deli would not be getting my business.
What a putz.
(Not you, the stupid deli. I doubt it’s really kosher.)
“An ArchitectGuy reader copied me on his email to the owner of Max’s Deli which has gone unanswered: “…When I bring my family to your restaurant I expect good food, good service, and a relaxing atmosphere. I don’t expect, want or enjoy reading your political thoughts. It’s possible that some of your customer base enjoys looking at cartoon Nazi’s pointing to their food choices. It’s possible that some of your customers think that the Alt-left is as harmless as Sasquatch. It’s possible that some of your customers agree with you that Colin Kaepernick deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. I do not!”

This was totally idiotic, Trump is not anti-Semitic and at least half of his family is Jewish. But maybe they’re not liberal Jews (I believe they’re Orthodox) so liberal Jews don’t like them.
Still, that said, I thought this was probably meant to be cute and harmless - but some people, especially if they listen to NPR - have a tin ear.
Sometimes it’s good that they out themselves. When their business shrivels up it will be a hard lesson. This guy may not have to worry much being in Chicago, though.
Right there with you, people are just too damn dense.
How does one say “dumbass” in Yiddish?
I don’t think the guy who owns the deli is Jewish. And it is 100% certain that it is NOT kosher—in more ways than just the food. Don’t look for me there any time soon. Like, never.
There is nothing more contradictory than an anti-Torah Jew. He has forgotten who he is and is cursing his mother and father. He belittles the Avos and Moshe Rabienu. Like Larry King he’s all about ‘being Jewish’ and shmuzing like a Yid, but the G-d of Israel, Him he can do without.
