Pink Fascism

Bowing to pressure from the likes of these self-important Zion-loathing harridans, the Bay has taken Ahava beauty products off its shelves.

Way to cave to the enemies of Western civilization, craven Canuckis!

Update: When Bonnie Brooks, Bay President and CEO, is honoured by the Israel Cancer Research Fund in May, don't you think they should give her a honking big gift basket full of Ahava products?

Update: Buy Ahava online here.

Update: My pal SL sent me this, an e-mail he received from the Bay CEO:
The brand in question, Ahava, has been discontinued globally by the brand owner, not by The Bay. One of our largest shareholders of the Hudson's Bay Trading Company is one of North America's most significant Israel supporters, and our Governor along with our Chief Beauty Merchant responsible for this product range, are both Jewish. We do not discontinue products due to pressure from any source other than our own decision based on either sales performance or product quality. We are very concerned that we have received hundreds of emails and negative customer reaction inside our stores, all due to the spreading of incorrect information, which has upset our many customers, employees, their families and the fashion industry who are supportive of Israel. We would appreciate the parties involved in the protest, being set straight as soon as possible.


Thank you.

Sincerely,

Bonnie Brooks

Chief Adventurer

(aka President and CEO)The Bay,

"Chief Adventurer"? How cute is that?

I find the claim that the products are being discontinued worldwide difficult to believe. Sears still lists all of the items as available and the company website is still live.

I'm heading out today to try to buy some.

The most recent communique from B'nai Brith also expressed doubt over the timing of Ahava's removal and the Bay's somewhat mixed messages.
