Apparently, the Apple Store's big offenses are 1) being a cube (as is the Ka'ba, the holiest shrine in Islam) and 2) being open 24 hours, also like the Ka'ba. Oh, and 3) alcoholic beverages are served at the Genius Bar.
It's clear to me, if to nobody else, that Steve Jobs obviously has it in for Muslims. What possible reason could he have for green-lighting a cubical building, other than to stick it in the nose of peace-loving Muslims? The problem with tolerance, as I'm sure many Muslims are realizing right now, is that people will abuse that tolerance. It's only because Steve Jobs was given too much play on his leash that this sort of nonsense is taking place.
Oh, and apparently Apple fans are calling this store the "Apple Mecca." Despicable! I'm sure Israel is behind that one, at the urging of George Bush and Co.
Isn't there an aphorism that says those looking for conspiracies at every turn will find them?
