It's all a Matter of Perspective

Hey there. How're you doing? Hangin' in there? Pour some java into your mug and snag a virtual treat while you're over there. Now here's something for you. There are lots of people out there with strange ideas so this should not be that surprising.

A cosmetics company in Gaza recently began selling a fragrance dedicated to victory over Israel and named after the signature M-75 missile that Hamas has been firing across the border.

"The fragrance is pleasant and attractive," said the company owner, "like the missiles of the Palestinian resistance," and comes in masculine and feminine varieties, at premium prices (over, presumably, the prices of ordinary Gazan fragrances).

Sympathizers can splash on victory, he said, from anywhere in the world. [The Times of Israel, 12-6-2012]

Fragrances of Napalm # 7, eh? Sounds like  decidedly bad taste to me but I guess it depends where your sympathies lie.

See ya, eh.
