Please support - Starbucks vs British Royal Marines
Recently, British Royal
Marines in Iraq wrote to Starbucks because they
wanted to let them know how
much they liked their coffees, and to request
that they send some of it to the
troops there.
Starbucks replied, telling the Royal Marines thank you for
their support of their business, but that Starbucks doe not support
the war,
nor
anyone in it, and that they would not send
the troops
their brand of coffee.
So as not to offend
Starbucks, maybe we should support them by
NOT
buying any of their products!
I feel we should get this
out in the open. I know this war might not be very popular with
some folks, but that
doesn't mean we don't support the boys on the ground, fighting
street-to-street and, house-to-house.
If you feel the same as I do then pass this along.
Thanks very much for your support. I know you'll all be there again
when I deploy once more.

PLEASE DON'T
DELETE THIS... PLEASE PASS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR E-MAIL
LIST, IN
MEMORY OF ALL THE TROOPS WHO HAVE BEEN WOUNDED, LOST
LIMBS AND
DIED, SO THAT WE MAY HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE !
Also, don't forget that when the Twin Trade Towers were hit, the
fire fighters and rescue workers went to Starbucks because it was
close by for water for the survivors and workers, and Starbucks
CHARGED
THEM!!!
AN ADDED NOTE
STARBUCKS HAD STORES ON SEVERAL MILITARY BASES
IN
THE UNITED STATES. THEY ARE NOW BEING REMOVED
There are 227 Starbucks stores across the UK ,
and our soldiers got the same response from this company,
so let us do our bit and
boycott Starbucks to show
them how despicable their actions are.
