This should provide fodder for everyone. They're exporting US jobs! They're rebuilding the country(Afghanistan)! They're smuggling explosives/drugs into the US!

They'll greet us as TASTE liberators!

All I know is Coke and other soft drink products taste like crap in the Middle East. I don't know why they are different but they are.

If it's bottled in the Middle East, then I hope it stays in the Middle East.
I can just imagine what could happen if they bring ME-bottle drinks into the US. COuld kill off a large percentage of our population.

this could be like a Dilbert Cartoon :


Pointy haired Boss :well ,we seem to have insurgents. they bomb things,
they are angry at us, want us out of here and think we are imperialistic , capitalistic swines...

Dogbert: how about we build them a Coca Cola factory?

The investment by a Dubai-based Afghan family is one of the biggest in post-Taliban Afghanistan.

The same people who want to control our ports and used to visit Osama bin Laden.

Small world.
