Starbucks CEO: Friend of Israel
Posted: Fri 4th July 2008 9.33 AM | Author: Sam Hailes
Chairman, president and CEO of Starbucks, Howard Schultz is a Jew who is recognised as a 'Friend of Zion'.
56 year-old Schultz has been part of Starbucks since 1982 when he joined as a Marketing Consultant. Starbucks currently serves 15 million customers a week with a variety of coffees, teas and snacks in nearly 4,000 stores worldwide. They also offer a range of Kosher and Fair trade products.
Speaking in 2002 at a synagogue in Seattle, Howard Schultz warned his fellow Jews about the rise of anti-Semitism: "What is going on in the Middle East is not an isolated part of the world. The rise of anti-Semitism is at an all-time high since the 1930's…If you leave this synagogue tonight and go back to your home and ignore this, then shame on us” he said.
Starbucks even opened 6 stores in Israel, teaming up with Shalom Coffee Ltd. However Starbucks were forced to pull out of the deal in 2003 due to ‘operational challenges.’

3 this guy is an idiot.. he should know that 95% of the semites are Arabs. the only anti semites i know are isrlies who believe they are the chosen. lol 90% of jews living in isrl are of european descent, who's fathers have converted to judaism. they have no historical right to this land what so ever, the true ppl of the land of Palestine are the philistines who are being killed in masses by the very people who claim to be humane. lol what a sick bunch of arseholes you people are.
