Zionist Coffee


the starbucks mentioned in the story is very close to where i lived during my college years ... it was literally right around the corner ... i can proudly say i never went there ... not once ...

About a hundred demonstrators have converged on west Beirut's branch of the Starbucks coffee shop and closed it down in protest over the Israeli attack on Gaza.
Protesters are justifying their actions by claiming that the Starbucks corporation' owner donates money to the Israeli military.
Customers fled the Starbucks as the protesters descended on it and turned out the lights and blocked the doors on Tuesday.
Protesters then raised a Palestinian flag over the shop and wrote on its window "Jewish favorite coffee."
