A sombrero sized hat tip to Elder of Ziyon for adding four, four mind you. new items to the List of things that Offend Muslims.
1. A speaker at an Islamic University causes a stir because he's ...(gasp!) A RABBI!
The furore has caused ripples beyond academia, with 20 parliamentary members quick to jump on the bandwagon and demand that the speaker of the People's Assembly summon members of the parliament's Educational Committee for an urgent meeting to determine who is responsible for the convening of such seminars.
They have also demanded that Hani Helal, the minister of higher education, be sacked.
"We are not going to allow Jews to desecrate our universities, spread their Zionist views and brainwash our students," railed independent MP Gamal Zahran.
2. An Israeli Vodka Bottle with a picture of Jerusalem.
Commenting on the case lawyer said Zahi Ngidat spokesman for the Islamic movement : "This is a horrendous act of demons company, and that this del, it shows that the craftiness of Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa is as a result of Israeli institutional and popular."
For its part, the Aqsa Foundation stated: "It has become clear that the Zionist alliance crazier sinned development agenda in the daily work of the violation of the sanctity of al-Aqsa mosque Quds Fund and its Waqf all buildings and there is no doubt that the marketing of wine bottles carrying posters of the image of the Dome of the Rock and the city of Jerusalem is a violation of the sanctity of Al Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock mosque, which is one of the holiest Islamic sanctities of Muslims, and that he found and disregard for the feelings of one and a half billion Muslims."
3. Israeli Dates for sale in Morrocco.
The "Made in Israel" label is obviously seen on the packages. "We used to buy dates from Arab countries such as Tunisia," said hajj Mohamed, a dates vendor. "I myself would not buy dates produced by our enemy," he said. Mohamed said some merchants are greedy and uncaring. "They disrespect the sensibilities of Moroccans and are only after money," he said.
4. Paper Cups that were made in Israel.
Paper cups with Hebrew writing disturbed both employees and medical staff at King Khaled National Guard Hospital on Saturday. The catering subcontractor for the hospital coffee shops began using them on Saturday after their usual supply ran out.
“We were shocked and angry,” said an employee. “How can Israeli products be allowed and how did they enter this hospital?” he asked.
The Filipino employee who works in the Al-Musbah coffee shop asked: “Why is everybody mad about the cups?” He was told: “Because they are made in Israel!”
The horror...the horror...
