Marketing Terrorism As ‘Peace’

It’s becoming a disturbing trend.

Again we find a clothing store for young people (in this case, Delias.com, for teenage girls) marketing the Palestinian kaffiyeh, symbol of the intifada and decades of violence and terrorism.

Urban Outfitters called their kaffiyeh an “anti-war scarf.” Delias.com gives it the Orwellian name: “Peace Scarf.”
