Atlanta, GA – The owner and publisher of the Atlanta Jewish Times has resigned and is seeking a buyer in the wake of a column he wrote speculating that Israel would consider assassinating President Obama.

Andrew Adler, in an email obtained by JTA, announced Monday that he is “relinquishing all day-to-day activities effective immediately” following the publishing of his opinion piece saying that Obama’s assassination was among Israel’s options in heading off a nuclear Iran.
Adler named staff writer John McCurdy as interim managing editor until a replacement can be found. Adler said he would publish an apology in his next edition and that reaction from readers had been overwhelmingly negative.
Adler should go to D.C and get on his knees and beg forgiveness from Obama. I can’t believe that he would say something like this. I Can’t imagine the amount of Anti Semitism and Chilul Hashem he has caused. Hes hould be ostracized by his community
This guy is obviously a few bulbs short of a chandelier. He probably deserves rachmonus more than anything else.
either he belongs in the looney bin or in a jail. he definitely has no place writing a newspaper. never can we can go anyone who even hints on harming a public official
I hope that he will be charged with a federal crime to make clear this kind of behavior will not be tolerated, whether from a jew or gentile. Its one year today that Gabby Gifford was shot so the timing is really troubling.
This guy deserves no rachmonos. It happens to be a federal crime to advocate the assassination of the President. The goyim are still talking about the Rosenbergs, something which occurred nearly 60 years ago. Hence, this latest fiasco, only adds fuel to the fire!
Well Satmar Rabbi said that about a month ago that we should watch what we say
