Marketing Killers to the Clueless
UK clothing store ARK may be affiliated with Urban Outfitters; their web site looks similar, their models are just as glassy-eyed, and they also sell the symbol of Palestinian terrorism, the kaffiyeh.
Urban Outfitters called their version, with no apparent irony, an “anti-war woven scarf (http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=24008_Marketing_Peace_to_the_Clueless&only).”
In Britain though, ARK dispenses with the “anti-war” hooey and openly names it after one of history’s most notorious murderers: Ark Arafat Scarf (http://www.arkclothing.com/Ark_Arafat_Scarf6.html).
