Is a pattern emerging for anyone else? Is there any limit to the 'demands'? Cartoons? Valentines? Now postcards?

Fashion goes dhimmi

From Expatica, fashion goes dhimmi:

MADRID - The Spanish high street store Bershka has recalled its latest collection from its shops all over the world after complaints from some Muslim customers in Dubai.

Bershkas new range contains a label with a picture of a garden scene and what looks like a mosque or a Middle Eastern palace. The illustration is done in the style of a postcard from an exotic holiday, with handwriting and an arrow pointing to the building and a few hearts.

On the picture is written: "We slept here!!!" Beneath the picture are the words: "New...Collection 2006. Look! Here is where we are... wonderful! Isnt it!?"

According to the United Arab Emirates newspaper Khaleej Times, some shoppers in the Dubai Bershka complained to the shop assistant about the labels using "images of a mosque mixed with symbols of love and suggestive comments".

A customer told the newspaper: "They are describing that place [the mosque] as a place where lovers spend the night."

The illustrator of the design told the newspaper, which is printed in English, that the arrow was pointing at the garden, not at the mosque.
