what about starbucks?

[MsEVP]

Recently the Royal Marines in Iraq wrote to Starbucks and let them know how much they liked their coffees, and requested they send some of it to the troops there. Starbucks replied Thank you for your supply of our business but Starbucks does not support the war nor anyone in it and they will not be sending any coffee.

I know that this war is not popular with many people but that doesn`t mean that we can`t support the troops on the ground.

(Don`t forget, when the Twin Trade Towers were hit the fire fighters and rescue workers went to Starbucks which was close by for some water for the survivors and workers. Starbucks charged them!

I, erm, do buy coffees from this overpriced chain store.

This is being circulated by email at the moment. I have been sent it about 5 times this week. Emails are doing the rounds in London.
