I wasn't sure if I should post this under food or under politiks, but here goes... Check out this new cola that has been launched in France, with the goal to aid the Palestinian cause. This is almost funny: Here's a link to their site, especially for you Srrh, since it is in French or Arabic: www.mecca-cola.com/P.S. 10% of their sales proceeds goes to Palestine.

LOL...
I thought this was perhaps about Irans Zim Zam Cola (or whatever it was called...) one of their soft drink companies is booming because of anti-americanism right now- everyone is buying the alternative to the American products...
This is even funnier!

I think it's a great idea.
Western policies are more geared toward the good of corporations then the good of the people.
I am sure that a visit from the president of Coke, McDonalds or Microsoft to one of our so-called "elected leaders" carries more weight then 10 visits of 10 different nobel peace prize holders.
The old lesson still stands; "Money talks, Bullshit walks"
Our political voices have been dead for over 30 years. Our green, on the other hand...
But I wouldn't drink Mecca Cola either. No more then Vatican ginger ale, Raelian Sprite, or Zionist Orange Crush.

Next to the Davidian "7up yours" ...hehehe.
Talking about Rael, this is what I don't get...
Raelians wanted to copy themselves, so they cloned a baby...It seems a like a hole lot of work to me, cloning an entire baby like this...if Raelians wanted to make identical copies of themsevles, why didn't they just clone the asshole? ;D
S....

OK. First let me state I am very disapointed with your response at my "Zionist orange Crush" joke. I thought it was one of my best (goes to show...) Seriously though, I've got more news about it, and it is a kick in the teeth. First they already sold 2 millions botlles and have firm orders for 18 millions more: the (french) company existed for only 2 month. Now check this twisted shit: The bbc asked people in the paslestinian occupied territories what they would rather drink. All the people answered "Mecci Cola". Why mecci? It is insulting for islam to call a Cola Mecca? Anyway here is the twist: do you know what company in Palestine is the only international coglomerate still there? What foreign company in palestine has the most impact directly and indirectly (they buy most of their products there) on the economy? Coca-Cola. Coke is one of the few "still allowing palestinian to lead a normal life" said the journalist. So everybody BUT palestinians should drink Mecca Cola... The Irony in this world.... ;D I remain, the amazing Srrh

To be honest, I would have considered Mecca Cola to be a bit of an insult too if I was a very religious Muslim.

Yeah this is an insult to muslims.
These people must not be to bright, Coke is probably the most ruthless company in the world.

Its not battery acid as this is based upon hydrochloric acid. Coke has as its pep me up secret ingredient, phosphoric acid. This stuff is commonly used for stripping rust off of metal. Put some tarnished coins into a bottle of coke and amaze your friends the next day.
Coke concentrate prior to water and sugar being added must be transported around in stainless steel tankers with dangerous goods certification. NICE stuff. Hmmm Im getting thristy just thinking about it. Now wheres my Coopers Ale??
