Rachel Ray's "murderous Palestinian jihad" brought to an end

[GMJ]

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Many of you have probably heard that Dunkin' Donuts pulled an ad featuring Rachael Ray because she looks "too Arab-y." Apparently, her scarf set the right-wing blogs a-buzzing who decided to wage war on my beloved Dunkin' until they pulled the ad. Bloodied and beaten, the purveyors of sweet fried bread that fuel my morning gave in, according to the Boston Globe:

<blockquote>The Canton-based company has abruptly canceled an ad in which the domestic diva wears a scarf that looks like a keffiyeh, a traditional headdress worn by Arab men. Some observers, including ultra-conservative Fox News commentator Michelle Malkin, were so incensed by the ad that there was even talk of a Dunkin’ Donuts boycott.
‘‘The keffiyeh, for the clueless, is the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad,’’ Malkin yowls in her syndicated column.
‘‘Popularized by Yasser Arafat and a regular adornment of Muslim terrorists appearing in beheading and hostage-taking videos, the apparel has been mainstreamed by both ignorant and not-so-ignorant fashion designers, celebrities, and left-wing icons.’’</div>

I can see it. You have to squint really hard, and imagine her in a jihad.
