Reporter: "While John Stith was busy in the laboratory testing various medications and substances, he discovered an essence that creates a [unique] flavor in the mouth, and this is how the cola drinks came into being. Since then, following fast-growing industrial production, these new drinks went beyond their country of origin. Due to our insatiable appetite, the manufacturers have become commercial giants and have managed to cross all borders worldwide, from the hotels and casinos of Las Vegas to the slums of Darfur in Sudan and of Afghanistan, reaching the winding alleys of all the cities of the world.

"Many streets in countries around the world, and, unfortunately, in Arab countries too, are full of colorful billboards advertising Zionist companies. The money earned this way has turned into lead, which rips apart the chests of children in Palestine and Lebanon.
"McDonald's, Marlboro, Disney, Timberland, Revlon, Hugo Boss, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, L'Oreal, and Garnier - these are among the capitalist companies that belong to the Zionist regime.
