Sorry to bust your outrage, but this is only going to be for cans sold in the Muslim world.

Well, good luck trying to bust my outrage when BMW, in their brochures for the middle East, showed Israel as non-existent, and "palestine" in its stead.

It takes more than twisted logic to be effective.

By the way, welcome to FR, abdul.

What do BMW's brochures have to do with Coke's marketing campaign in the Muslim world?

You should know that tailoring your marketing, products and packaging is a common practice when you try to sell yourt goods or services abroad. McDonalds in India doesn't sell beef, American banks in the Middle-East offer specially-structured "no-interest" loans, you can buy beer in some American fast-food joints in Europe, and so on.
