How about "Kuffar Korner" (or is it Kaffir, or Kafir?) We can all grab a team sweatshirt from Internet-Haganah.
Our ash grey Hanes Ultimate Cotton Pullover Hood says KUFFAR("Infidel" in Arabic) with a small transliteration.
I've heard that Kaffir can be taken as a derogatory term toward black people in general in some parts of Africa. But then I went to this site and now I am all confused.

I've always heard that it was an Arabic epithet meaning "infidel". I wasn't aware it was a slur agains black people in South Africa as well. That page you linked to is wrong about one thing. I'm pretty sure that Christians and Jews are considered kuffars. I don't buy into that "people of the book" BS they try to peddle.

Had a note from WestCoastGal last night. She had to work today, but asked that I put in her vote for "Threat Matrix" as the title for this new thread. I like it too.
