What would T.E. Lawrence make of THIS? By these standards, McDonalds' uniform is reminiscent of Benito Mussolini or as one reply to the BBC article states, this "is like saying that UPS should change its brown uniform because it pleases the Hitler Youth.""The US chain Dunkin' Donuts has pulled an advert following complaints that the scarf worn by a celebrity chef offered symbolic support for Islamic extremism."Further insight into the mind that put forward this paranoid and reactionary thesis can be seen HERE. This ignorance reminds me of the case of Balbir Singh Sodhi who was gunned down in Arizona four days after 9/11. His killer bragged beforehand that he would "kill the ragheads responsible for September 11".
