Debbie Schlussel: UGG-ly Jihad: Overpriced Boot Company Gives You Another Reason Not to Buy
SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATE
No, I am not one of the many doltish American (and those of other nationalities) women (and some very gay men) who threw out $200-$300 on the most ugly, overpriced boots imaginable. But, price and hideousness aside, the Ugg folks now provide us with another reason not to patronize them. The company is based in Australia, which is overrun by Muslim extremists. They know what the keffiyeh is and what it now stands for, which we all know is jihad. They've seen the Nicholas Berg and other such videos. They've seen the HAMAS parades.
And please don't tell me that this is just a "paisley scarf" the way they did when Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs exposed Dunkin' Donuts and its Rachael Ray keffiyeh campaign.
UGG. Ugh.
**** UPDATE: Although the color of the keffiyeh is not always significant (I've seen Palestinian terrorists wearing the black kind and the red kind, and regular pro-terrorist Muslims like Saudi King Abdullah and other Gulf State royalty often wear the red and white keffiyeh), our friend, Terrorism Investigator and Private Detective Bill Warner, notes that the Somalian Islamic Al-Qaeda offshoot--the Al-Shabaab terrorist group--has chosen the red and white keffiyeh in this UGG ad as its terror headgear of choice. Check out the collection of Al-Shabaab photos he's posted (including this one, below).
