Dunkin’ Donuts, the biggest world coffee chain with bakery and pastry, has pulled an ad where the TV chef Rachael Ray wore a scarf similar to the Palestinian scarf. This caused protests from some conservative people.
Ray had been hired in March as face and spokesman for a Dunkin’ Donuts ad. Dunkin’ Donuts is a company that operates many stores in United States and other countries. They offer breakfasts, foods and breads.
In a recent ad distributed by Internet, Ray appears with the “keffiyeh”, the traditional Palestinian scarf (also used by other Middle East citizens), on her shoulders while she holds an iced coffee cup in her hand.
Fox News commentator Michelle Malkin wrote on her website: “The keffiyeh, for the clueless, is the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad”.
