theyarecomingforyou, your comments are really stupid to turn this into a subject about Jews, even though this is about a Store in India & Nazism. Nazism offends a whole range of people (From Gypsies and Homosexuals as you mentioned to people who are against Human Suffering) not just offensive to Jews (who suffered the most), and you are the only one to make the connection that the offense is only to Jews exclusively, nobody else has said this but you, so it doesn't make sense to say this.

In theyarecomingforyou's world view, any disagreement with Obama means you are a horrible racist that must be publicly dealt with as such, have your name dragged through the mud, and to be hated because of any different thought means you hate that there is a man of a different skin color living in the White House (he has said it towards myself and those who post here). But when there is true racism, true bigotry, true hatred of a people who have a different belief, such as the Nazis had in the past or through their current incarnations (albeit to a lesser degree - we don't see millions being killed) then we should just give up trying to make sure that a horrible period (one of many) in human history does not happen again, because one specific group (Israel/Jews) makes an issue that we should not forget.

New business trying to court controversy for free publicity which has, apparently, worked.

Ignore it and it'll go away.

Owner will rename 'Hitler' clothing shop in India

The owner of the "Hitler" clothing shop in western India says he will remove the sign and rename his store after hearing people's complaints.

Shah said he received dozens of phone calls asking that he rename the shop. Israel's consul general in Mumbai had also asked state officials to intervene.

Shah says he didn't know about Hitler's history, but people in the city say the name was a marketing gimmick.

Don't think some of you noticed that the store has been renamed.

^ The swastika was originally a old Hindu/India symbol.

The Nazis stole it.

The swastika is an extremely powerful symbol. The Nazis used it to murder millions of people, but for centuries it had positive meanings.

The swastika is an ancient symbol that has been used for over 3,000 years. (That even predates the ancient Egyptian symbol, the Ankh!) Artifacts such as pottery and coins from ancient Troy show that the swastika was a commonly used symbol as far back as 1000 BCE.

During the following thousand years, the image of the swastika was used by many cultures around the world, including in China, Japan, India, and southern Europe.

The word "swastika" comes from the Sanskrit svastika - "su" meaning "good," "asti" meaning "to be," and "ka" as a suffix.

Until the Nazis used this symbol, the swastika was used by many cultures throughout the past 3,000 years to represent life, sun, power, strength, and good luck.

Thanks Hum, you are correct. The Nazi's did adopt that symbol but presented it differently somewhat. Still the same though.

I wonder how that guy's business is doing now.
