Scent of a…Woh, Man!

Something stinks in Lebanon:

A new perfume carrying the “scent of resistance” and celebrating Hizbullah’s “divine victory” has been released on the market in Lebanon, according to a report which appeared in the Lebanese Daily Star last week.

“If you’ve ever wondered what resistance smells like, then try a dab of ‘Resistance Perfume,’ which comes ‘exclusively’ with a political message and a picture of Hizbullah’s secretary general, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah,” the Daily Star article said.

“Apparently, the scent of resistance is a strong and musky one that comes with a single pledge ‚Äì ‘a truthful’ one,” the report added.

A slogan on the perfume box, quoting Nasrallah during a wartime speech made over the summer reads: “You are the truthful promise … and I have great faith in you and I promise you divine victory.”

But if you really want a “perfume” that symbolizes Hizbullah and other terrorist organizations, and which contains a strong smell representing their pledges, there’s a cheaper alternative.
