Does iraq need a starbucks?

lolz lolz lolz. Thank you for this question.
They tried to put starbucks in Italy, but couldn't make it work, since of course, their coffee shops are the real deal and no one in their right mind would patronize starbucks over authentic Italian espresso.
It's an evil empire!!!!
When I worked in DC, no joke, they put TWO flipping starbucks one block apart, across the street from each other.
How lazy do ppl have to be? Can we no longer even be troubled to cross the street for our liquid crack?

Your question is like "if USA needs to get an Iraqis hamburgers Joint" or,
"if Italy needs to get a Pasta restaurant"
Would it fare better than the sophisticated and very refined Quality Tea & Coffe shops in Irak already since centuries,not a couple decades?
I don't think so.
Try better selling American Whisky in Scotland.And dream of Empire there

Don't call me Shirley

And a mcdonalds and a wal-mart. "Attention shoppers, we are having a 5 minute special on burkas"

No. They need better tasting coffee then Starbucks.

George

sure, and a McDonalds, a mall, Disneyland, a Home Depot, a Walmart of course, and a Nordstroms

after all, those are the hallmarks of American culture - its shallow, American culture, no?

NO!

Put on a normal coffe shop why does everybody gives too importance to that stupid place?

You know what? All I do in that place is sit my *** on the what you call that? sorry my first language is spanish, but yeah, the comfortable things you sit your *** on, cause they are quite comfortable, at least they don't charge me for sitting my *** on there because the coffee individualy is quite expensive.

~MEEEOW~

NO!.....if they needed that they why not a Wal-mart, Sams Club, Costco, Mc Donalds and Disney world? Lets just build everwhere and see the happiness spread through out the world!!?? Yaaaayyy!!!

I can't believe I'm saying this, but everyone needs a Starbucks.
Iraqis would love it.
They'd also like to live in peace and not in fear, but coffee is a good place to start.
