Sporting goods giant NIKE is not often brought to amend its product decisions. But a campaign by American Muslims activists acting out of CAIR have gotten Nike to remove a shoe they deemed offensive to Muslims. The shoe in question, which has been sold under the names Air Bakin’, Air Melt, Air Grill and Air B-Que, contains a fire logo (emblem) that resembles the Arabic script for God (Allah). Resembles. but not is. Although CAIR recognizes that the shoe does not actually say Allah, close enough was enough for them to mount a protest.
CAIR executive director Nihad Awad stated why the shoes offend Muslim sensibility “Many . . . may not understand how offensive it is to have the name of God on a shoe,” said Nihad Awad, the Islamic council’s executive director. “The shoe gets dirty. It gets muddy. It gets sweaty. We believe this is disrespectful to the name of God.”
 
Why muslims don't find shit offensive? It's because they rub off shit with their hand and don't get to see it?

Just not only everything will upset muslims, either way they will be upset. Another twist, a peacful muslim angried with Nike for refusing to ustomize Air Jordan shoes with the word 'Muslim'. Non-muslims are trouble makers, muslims are peaceful people who don't hate?

[h=1]Angry customer pens a letter to Nike after the company refuses to let him customize Air Jordan shoes with the word 'Muslim'[/h]
  • A New York man is angry after Nike's NikeiD would not allow him to put the word 'Muslim' on a custom pair of the brand's Air Jordan shoes
  • The word does not violate any of the company's policies for customization
  • It still allows words like 'Ku Klux' and 'Osama' to be written on the shoes
  • Nike had issues before when a pair of shoes appeared to say 'Allah' in Arabic

A man is outraged after Nike refused to customize a pair of Air Jordans with the word 'Muslim' or 'Islam'.

Nabeel Kaukab, 40, of New York, penned an angry letter to the company on Facebook saying the word 'Muslim' doesn't meet any of the guidelines for banned words for NikeiD.
Nike's guidelines exclude 'profanity', 'inappropriate slang', 'insulting or discriminatory content', 'content construed to incite violence', 'material that Nike wishes not to place on products' and anything that 'violates another party's trademark or intellectual property rights' from being written on its shoes.
Mr Kaukab wrote on his Facebook page: 'As far as I (or any rational person) can assume, neither word is profanity, slang (appropriate or inappropriate), insulting or discriminatory (more than a billion people globally find identity in being called Muslims).

'Considering there is no trademark or IP around just the word Islam or Muslim, by process of elimination that leaves your customers to assume only the following:
'Either you believe the word Islam or Muslim incites violence or they are words that Nike doesn't want to place on its products?'
Huffington Post speculates the reason Nike might not put the word 'Muslim' on its shoes is because of an incident involving a stylized version of the word 'air' on one of their shoes that accidentally resembled the word 'Allah' in Arabic.
Nike was forced to withdraw 38,000 pairs of shoes worldwide, issue an apology and ended up paying for a playground at an Islamic elementary school in the U.S.
Other words not allowed on NikeiD include 'Allah,' 'Koran,' 'Jihad' and 'ISIS'. 'Daesh,' an offensive term for the terrorist group, is permitted, as is 'Quran'.



In the letter Mr Kaukab notes the company allows other religious terms like 'Jewish' or 'Hindu', so the exclusion can not be religion-based.



It also allows the names of violent groups on its shoes, Mr Kaukab writes in his letter.
'Unbelievably, even organizations/individuals associated with violence, like the Ku Klux Klan (you can safely go with Ku Klux or K K K), Daesh, Al Qaeda, Osama, PLO, IRA, Blood (think of the gang), Pol Pot or Dahmer, and groups with negative connotations like Commie or Facist are just fine when customizing your shoes,' he said.
He also noted that the word 'Trump' was allowed, and said that was likely a violation of the Donald's intellectual property.





 
Angmohs are offensive people. Their histrories of humilating ither races and countries must be death with.

Humilate China with opium trade is enough to make Chinese angry. And noe pretend their opium trade in china did not exist?
 
Chinese welcome Nike use opium war with China on their shoes.

Then people will wonder what where ansd when opium trade begins and who are these drug opiym growers, traffickers, dealers, mules, smugglers in China. All will points to European races, pimnies, and America.

Then this will get the British Empire England in vig trouble with the Queen E ready to apologize to China and Chinese.
 
Just not only everything will upset muslims, either way they will be upset. Another twist, a peacful muslim angried with Nike for refusing to ustomize Air Jordan shoes with the word 'Muslim'. Non-muslims are trouble makers, muslims are peaceful people who don't hate?

Islam is a religion of low self-esteem. That is why their get offended by every little things. No wonder the SJW and Muslims goes well together. They are birds of same feathers.
