...and if it isn't...it should be!!!An Egyptian Cleric wants to shut down Starbucks because he believes that the woman in the logo is the Jewish Queen Esther.
Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu of Israel National News writes:
An Egyptian Muslim cleric has called on the Muslim and Arab world to boycott Starbucks because he claims thefemale character depicted in the company’s logo is actually Queen Esther, the heroine in the story of Purim.
The logo shows a woman with a crown, topped by a five-pointed star on her head. Although there is no apparent reference to anything Jewish in the portrayal, cleric Safwat Higazi recently declared on Egyptian television, “The girl in the Starbucks logo is Queen Esther." The video of Higazi's statement was translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).
