According to the cleric, the mascot of Starbucks is none other than Queen Esther, a Jewish Queen and heroine.

An Egyptian cleric has literally blown the lid off the global conspiracy of the Starbucks chain: none other than the Jewish heroine of the Purim story is the power behind the worldwide coffee empire.

Safwat Higazi, clearly one of the most learned and respected buffoons among Egypt's Islamic clergy, made the astounding and gut-wrenching revelation on Egypt's Al-Nas TV, uncovering at last the sinister subliminal message that has been infecting hundreds of millions of Starbucks customers in the Islamic world as they ingest their grande mochaccinos: they have been drinking from the libations concocted by one of the seven most beautiful virgins of the ancient world, selected by King Xerxes himself to be his beloved bride in a hotly contest beauty contest -- and she's a Jewess.

OK this takes paranoia to a whole new level.  The logo is a MERMAID!!!!!!!!!! 

Here is the original logo from the storefront near Pike Place market.

Starbucks Mermaid Logo

A year ago an American complained about the Starbucks' Slutty Mermaid Making Waves.

*sigh* glad I got that off my chest :)

Thanks for the post.

I know! I always liked the slutty mermaid! Somehow this Egyptian made her all....dirty.

Thanks for your comment Tina!

However, there is something fishy about a company that has a mermaid on its logo

I mean, I don't like Starbucks either, but dang. I was just gonna complain about the bitter coffee; not too sure about that whole Esther thing. With apologies to Freud, sometimes a mermaid is just a mermaid.

Exactly. A mermaid fits perfectly in a place where you pay 4 bucks USD for a bitter cup of java.

This is a very serious threat as most religious zealot threats are dangerous. As I read the detail behind this report on isrealinsider there is one example of that danger:
"Muslim and leftist protesters smashed a Starbucks shop in London, apparently disregarding Higazi's impassioned plea for restraint. And that was evidently before they knew of the sinister Esther link."
These dangers are real and global.

Oh well, I knew it!! How could I have been  so blind! And American Money with its prominent Pyramid is an Egyptian Islamic plot to buy all them Jewish Starbucks. And still we allow Whackjobs like him to immigrate to our countries.
