It's a stretch, but it did make Starbucks apologize and take down the ad.

Oh and that was post-9/11. Just noticed that.

It was a controversy at the time and Starbucks pulled this add campaign because of the likeness.

Why was that Starbucks still open for business after the attacks? You would think that they would shut down, no?
