It’s not clowns jihad.
It’s not cartoons jihad.
It’s not Valentine’s Day jihad.
It’s not football (soccer) jihad.

So, what is it this time?
Take a break from jihad and let’s look at:

Some great snack food products!

Pass me the bag of Doritos Chilli Heat Wave Chips and a Diet Coca-Cola.

“Muslims criticise Walkers after it is revealed that some crisp varieties contain alcohol”
Last updated at 13:31pm on 22nd February 2008

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Furious Muslims have heavily criticised Walkers crisps after it emerged that certain varieties of the manufacturer’s products contain trace elements of alcohol.
Some crisp types use minute amounts of alcohol as a chemical agent to extract certain flavours.

The report in Asian newspaper Eastern Eye, highlights concerns raised by shopkeeper Besharat Rehman, who owns a halal supermarket in Bradford, West Yorkshire.

Mr Rehman told the paper: “A customer informed us that Sensations Thai Sweet Chilli and Doritos Chilli Heat Wave are not on Walkers’ alcohol-free list. Our suppliers were unaware of this.

“Even if it is a trace amount of alcohol, Walkers should make it clear on the packaging so that the customer can make an informed choice.

“I feel frustrated and angry. I have let my customers down simply because such a big company like Walkers is not sensitive to Muslim needs.

“Many of them were my daughter’s favourite crisps. As soon as I found out about the alcohol in them, I called home to ask my wife to throw out all the packets.”

Shuja Shafi, who chairs the food standards committee of the Muslim Council of Britain, said that he intended to investigate. “Certainly we would find it very offensive to have eaten food with alcohol.”

Masood Khawaja, of the Halal Food Authority, said that this was not the first time the issue had been raised with Walkers.”

“Timely Reminder of Iranian Support for Terrorism”

By Matthew Levitt and Michael Jacobson
February 22, 2008

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Over the past several years, Iran’s nuclear activities have commanded the attention of the international community. But the recent assassination of Hizballah foreign operations chief Imad Mughniyeh is a reminder that Iran has been — and continues to be — a key player in global terrorism, as its explicit sponsorship of Hizballah, Hamas, and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) demonstrates. Moreover, a recent terrorism case in Bahrain suggests that Iran’s assistance to al-Qaeda operatives may still be continuing today, echoing the regime’s implicit support of the group in the past.

Longstanding Support for Terrorism”
