According to a report on The Middle East Media Research Institute, Apple’s NY Fifth Avenue store has been slammed by “an Islamic website” as a “new insult to Islam”.
The reason? Well, it resembles the Muslims’ sacred Ka’ba, situated in the Masjid al-Haram mosque in Mecca:
The “Islamic website” claims that since the offending structure is known as the “Apple Mecca”, and “contains bars selling alcoholic beverages”, it constitutes “a blatant insult to Islam”. The site accordingly calls on Muslims to spread the word in the hope that “Muslims will be able to stop the project”.

You know its getting pretty sad the ignorance of extremists. I guess thats what happens when you never bothered to remove religion from state.
Or in some of th cases allowed it to BECOME THE STATE. Iran was a secular state and our CLOSEST ALLY IN THE MIDDLE EAST until 1979. Pretty crazy how far we’ve come.
