Urban Outfitters Glorifies Terrorism

Tue, May 20, 2008 at 8:23:09 am PST

The clothing chain Urban Outfitters has been featured before at LGF, when they began selling the Palestinian kaffiyeh as a hip, stylish accessory, but this time they’ve stepped way over the line — with an openly anti-Israel T-shirt that glorifies Palestinian terrorism and child abuse.

This is really sick. UrbanOutfitters.com - Fresh Jive Victimized Tee.

What is wrong with these people?

Here’s the contact page at Urban Outfitters.

UPDATE at 5/20/08 8:28:09 am:

The reader who emailed about this outrage pointed to a Facebook page where someone posted an email from the maker of the shirt:

From: [redacted]

In regards to the Victimized T:

Expressing our view that the Palestinians are victims/have been victimized.
It is not an “anti-Israel” statement.

I appreciate your inquiry.

Thanks. Regards,
RICK
