As a human being, I'm offended by that King in the Burger King commercials.

That guy is f'ing scary, and I have nightmares because o him.

He should die.

Thank you.

I guess Egyptians can't read -- or why else would they be susceptible to a rumor that Coke upside down says something offensive in Arabic? Leap of imagination my ass.

If I was a gazzillionaire, I would market my own brand of tampons and sanitary napkins with some logo, label, or embossed design just to jihad those assholes back.

Ah, the muslim world... not just crazy, but borderline retarded, as well.

Ha! Pepsi has known about the Coke faux pas for years, which is why, when turned upside-down, it's logo reads "Death to the Joooos!" in Arabic.

Pepsi's got it's own problems to worry bout, cause everyone knows Pepsi stand for Pay Every Penny to Support Israel

Hmm.. maybe they should have made the design look more like someone pissing on a crucifix, they would have ended up with an NEA grant..

appeared calling on Egyptians to boycott the drink on the grounds it is destroying their religion

They are 100% correct of course - "Coka Cola and blue jeans" are the west's "secret weapon" for corrupting every single society we come in contact with. The CC&jeans are "gateway products" to lay them open to the real onslaught of cheap Sonys and porn that deliver the kill shot.

McDonalds and Burger King are the "mop up" troops that eliminate any holdouts.

"I won't be able to eat, my child won't have

diapers if I responded to the call,'' said Muhammad al-Qahtani, a Qatari

engineer, sipping frothy coffee at Starbucks."

Q.E.D. We are the fucking BORG - you will be assimilated.

FU*K THEM and their "jihad."

You know what's hilarious about this?

If this were about Christians being offended, these companies would write them placating letters which are the equivalent of the corporate office telling them to take a hike. People would hear about the offended Christians and would react with either, "What? Those crazy religious extremists, trying to force their religion onto all of us" or "Good, I'm glad they're offended! They need to experience it for once!" But, because it's Muslims? Let's see if we can bend over and grab our ankles for them.

Wait a minute . . . that's not funny at all.

We need to start complaining about the Islamic branch of the Red Cross, the Red Crescent. Maybe they've paved the way for us to justify shooting at people waving that flag around.

Corporate America's overcome these hurdles before. GM had to sell the Chevy Nova under a different name in Mexico because "No va" means "No go" in Spanish.

Can anyone spell "Neville Chamberlain"?

The new logo has been unveiled:

I teach American lit, beginning with the Pilgrims. EVERYTHING they wrote has to do with God and Christ's salvation. I know the day is coming when a Muslim student is offended by this curriculum. You'll see me on the news when I'm told I can't teach our historic literature because Muslims find it offensive.

Not true about the Chevy Nova selling under a different name in Mexico. Just another urban legend.

Equally funny is the outcry about the Penn 9-11 memorial looking to SOME like a crescent.

Heh.

Simple solution: let the market take care of itself. Keep govt out of the religion business. And since that's already status quo, ignore any attempt to sell papers or TV ads by getting you all worked up about this.

IOW, get a life.

Equally funny is the outcry about the Penn 9-11 memorial looking to SOME like a crescent.

Nah. I'd never have noticed. IF THEY HADN'T NAMED IT THE "CRESCENT OF EMBRACE."

Dipshit.

Did anyone else notice that "Allah" in Arabic looks like a big hunk of sperm cells wriggling around?

The Nova thing isn't true but whatever you don't name your kid C.O. if your last name is Jones then send him to Mexico to live.

Said it before and I'll say it again: Their alphabet is a fucking Rorshach test.

you forgot barbie dolls ...

"They want a secular, neutral symbol and have hit upon the idea of a red ‘crystal’, or diamond. "

This, actually, isn't that bad an idea. Would resolve the Maden David issue too ... two birds with one stone ...
