Hong Kong Nazi Bar

HONG KONG - An Israeli diplomat says he can't understand "how people can enjoy a drink and sing karaoke" surrounded by pictures of Nazis.

The official is slamming a Hong Kong bar that is decorated with photos of Adolf Hitler and Nazi soldiers.

The Israeli consul-general singled out a photo of a soldier shooting a man at a mass grave. The bar has since removed the photo.

The diplomat says taking down one picture "is not enough." He says Hitler is a "symbol of evil and crimes against humanity."

The bar owner says other Nazi photographs aren't going anywhere.

Earlier this month, the Israeli and a German diplomat criticized a local fashion company for using swastikas and other Nazi symbols on its clothes and to decorate its stores.

The firm later removed the items and apologized.

    If you dont like it dont go there.

    If somthing in a store/bar/whatever annoys you that much, dont patronize the place. If enough people dont go, he will change it or go out or close his doors. Dont take the liberal solution, its his place, he can run it any way he wants, you dont have to go.

    Those people who see nothing but grey areas, no black and white, are lost in the fog.

    I agree-don't patronize these places and spread the bad word about them.

    As things always go, the lunatics and stupidly curious will go to them and spend their money keeping these places in business.

    Hong kong is just another "fad" hungary asian country and who knows how far they will take crap like this.
