Shaking my head in disbelief, as I begin to comprehend the fact that the inherent Racism of Zionists seems to infiltrate and infest even the most mundane things in our everyday lives. Always lurking where you least expect it, poised ready to always deliver the bigoted blow, the smear, the racist propaganda and the gross de-humanization of Muslims. But even I was astounded by this one folks.
You may be used to seeing fireworks with names like 'Seaside Garden,' 'Burst and Bloom,' or 'Red, White, and Boom.'Now, here's the letter CAIR-MN wrote to the Zionist promoting company selling these racist potential weapons PDF FILE HERE
Some of the novelties sold at Fireworks City in Baldwin, Wis. are sparking controversy in the Arab and Muslim communities.
On one side of the packaging for 'Run Hadji Run' fireworks, men of Middle Eastern decent are riding on camels with a bomber plane flying above them. On the other side is an angry-looking Uncle Same yanking the beard of what looks like a Muslim man.
"This is just outrageous," said Kenya McKnight. What comes in my mind, is that people will get idea to pop fireworks at Muslims."
The fireworks were being sold for $30. While the owner didn't want to comment on camera, customers had a lot to say.
"To me it sends a clear message that Muslims are terrorists. ‘Run Hadji Run’—I’m going to throw some fireworks and I want to see you run," McKnight said.
The Council of American-Islamic Relations of Minnesota issued issued a statement about the fireworks, explaining "Hadji is an honorific term for those who have completed the pilgrimage to Mecca, but has been often used as a derogatory term by U.S. Soldiers during the Iraq War."
After 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS visited the store and brought attention to the offensive fireworks Friday, they were pulled off the shelves.
CAIR-MN also wrote a letter to the company's president, asking for him to offer an apology to the Muslim and Arab community. source
