In the United States, a customer who described herself as a “Palestinian” was deeply upset to discover that the wrapper on her McChicken sandwich was blue and white, which of course could only mean one thing: McDonald’s was signaling its support for the colonial-settler apartheid genocidal state of Israel. She complained to the employees about this, in a crazed colloquy she recorded on her phone and then posted on social media. Apparently she was proud of the way she had detected a Zionist plot to use blue and white, the very colors of Israel’s flag, on a McDonald’s wrapper when, she insisted, there had never been any before. (She was wrong, these wrappers are routinely used for special occasions, or when the regular wrappers run out). She brought this most suspicious wrapper to the attention of the hapless employees, to insist that they raise this matter with their bosses, so that McDonald’s would at once remove the offending wrapper. from all of its stores. More on how this unnamed and unhinged woman stood up for “Palestine” at a McDonald’s can be found here: “Woman vents her fury over ‘pro-Israel’ McChicken burger,” by Daniel Ben-David, The JC, February 23, 2024:
A woman visiting a McDonald’s outlet in the US complained to staff that the colour of a McChicken wrapper conveyed tacit support for the “killing of Palestinian kids”.
In a video that went viral on social media on Friday, the woman declares herself “starving,, finishes off her meal in her car and then pulls out her phone to express her fury. In her clip, she says: “Conveniently, McDonald’s changed their packaging.
That video was posted on Twitter:
Watch this woman lose it at McDonald’s employees because the wrapper on her burger is blue and white 🇮🇱

“What does that resemble?” she asks the viewer rhetorically [showing the blue-and-white wrapper].
Entering the shop, she approaches an unwitting employee and asks: “What is this?”
“This one,” the employee asks, “it’s a McChicken wrapper.”
“But why is it blue and white?”
“Honestly, I don’t know,” he claims.
“I think you do know. This is in support of Israel.”
The McDonald’s employee meekly attempts to explain that the packaging has been like that for over two months because the branch ran out of the regular-coloured ones, to which the woman says: “No, I don’t think so. This is obviously in support of Israel.”
“No, I mean we actually had that for a while, though,” the employee responds.
“I know this is not your fault because you’re an employee, but I think this is disgusting for them to do this, and I know you in your heart, you know in your heart that this is clearly what this wrapper is for.”
“I mean I didn’t know that, though.”
“I’m explaining it to you,” she persists, “this is what it’s for, this is the colour of their flag, this is clearly what they’re doing and what they’re showing to people, and I think it’s disgusting.”
Dragging a second unwilling employee into the fray, the woman says, while tapping her finger: “This is in support to kill Palestinian kids, this wrapping,”…
In a statement, McDonald’s said the wrapper was a “generic one that has been used for years in some McDonald’s restaurants across markets for special orders, limited-edition products, or temporary shortages of designated wrappers,” and none of the colour choices were intended to make any political statements.
Unhinged by hate, this Palestinian woman is like those maniacs who are sure that voices coming from the radio are all talking in code about them. She thinks anything blue and white must be a favorable reference to Israel. The blue-and-white Delft vases in museums surely need to be put in storage, so should the blue-and-white ceramics that come from Iznik, Turkey. And the blue-and-white flags of Greece, Finland, and Scotland will naturally put some in mind of the blue-and-white colors of the Israeli flag, so for the sake of Palestine, please stop flying those flags, at least until their colors have been changed.
And of course, there is the biggest blue-and-white phenomenon of all, that the Zionists have exploited to the fullest. Just look upwards, and what do you see but a blue sky and white clouds scudding by? This incompletely obnubilated sky puts one in mind, alas, of the Zionist flag. There doesn’t seem to be much Palestinians can do about that. But they can urge us not to look up to the high heavens, but to keep our gaze firmly fixed on the ground beneath our feet. Given their lowly cause, that sounds just about right.

Whine whine whine
Siddi Nasrani says
That reminds me of a old Jewish joke.
” Why does everybody tell me to cheer up, I’m only happy when I’m miserable” !!!!!
Chief Mac says
Every fast food restaurant in the country should switch to blue and white wrappers for everything until all the hostages are released and Hamas is destroyed
Anacleto Mitraglia says
Or maybe McD supports Argentina. Or Greece. Or Finland. Or the football team Lazio, or Napoli, who knows.
Alkflaeda says
Looks like Wedgwood are in big trouble for their blue vases as well.
Mark Dunn says
Theodore Dalrymple over at Takimagazine said that anytime there is a new scam, or loophole in the law criminals are fast learners. Likewise these foreigners are a quick study. Just think last week they had never seen a flush toilet.

If she is a Moslem then why is she eating at McDonald’s? It’s not Halal.
She should do herself a favor and move to a Moslem country – then she can see what is available at a fast foods restuarant.
Alkflaeda says
What’s the betting that she was in a shopping mall carpark, spotted someone else’s blue and white wrapper, and staged the whole thing, purchase, protest, the lot, after that?
Seekers says
The sheer stupidity and paranoia of Palestinian terrorist apologists has reached the point of lunacy. So in other words, anytime one sees restaurant food wrapped in blue and white paper, that’s a Zionist dog whistle.
Jerry says
There is a silver lining to all this…that idiot will never set foot in a McDonald again.
Alkflaeda says
McDonald’s should have said “Well, we’re dhimmis so we’re not allowed to use green” (seriously, under the Ottoman Empire, non-Muslims were not allowed to wear green).
Israel supporters should now make a point of asking for a blue wrapper.
CowboyUp says
She’s like those people who see nooses everywhere lmao. It’s all a Zionist conspiracy. Lord forgive me, but I love tweaking people with mentalities like that.
Freedom says
I love sausage McMuffins.
Chaya says
Is McDonalds Halal now? it isn’t kosher. .
Tzvi says
You know I was going to post the exact same thing…”She is not a very good Muslim eating Haram food.”
So I decided to look it up:
It’s controversial even amongst Muslims, but some McDonald’s products, including the McChicken can be Some kind of “Halal” certified”….the more strict Muslims won’t touch it because of obvious reasons like cooking it with non Halal Items ( cross contamination).
In any case no Hexagrams on the wrapper….maybe this person can travel to Balbek and scream at the stars carved in the ceiling in Roman Temple there…or go to Topkapi palace in Istanbul by the circumcision room to see the six pointed stars; or in terms of Blue and white, go the the Greek Islanders and tell them their blue and white houses signal support for Israel….
Old Fogey says
Deport all Muslims, now.
Wetmesswess says
What I can’t fathom is why this employee didn’t tell her “I don’t know what you’re talking about, ma’am, so why don’t you just get the hell out of here?”
It’s absolutely nauseating to see these people try to comfort her frivolous stupidity.
