"...kind of makes the "e" on the end look like a sinister Islamic crescent lurking behind the flag"

And thus we manufacture the only thing Americans make anymore: screaming-meemie controversy. This one guy at Associated Content surveyed all of the "Tweets via Twitter" that have, thus far, been twat:

Reactions on Twitter have ranged from shock to disappointment at Google's choice of doodle designs for Veterans Day.

LaughTech on Twitter enlarged the logo and set its caption as "Google says, 'Happy Veterans Day, Islam'".

AdrianTweeting makes a similar observation: "The Veterans Day Google logo kind of makes the "e" on the end look like a sinister Islamic crescent lurking behind the flag. Unfortunate."

RL from Product-Reviews.net sums up the outrage perfectly, "An American flag covering a partial showing Islamic crescent moon...good job GOOGLE...way to do your part to further fan the flames of tension between the western world and the Islamic community. Lets see how you play dumb and spin this."

1. I don't know. Looks more like a red sickle to me.

So it's really more of a Communist/Islamic plot. It's got Obama written all over it since he Islamic-commie-fascist-terrorist-lover.

I wonder how long it will be until Conservagoogle comes along?

3. Looks like the flag is both angry AND horny

Not a good combination.

2. Damn!

Pack it in, fellow librul conspiracy warriors. They're on to us in ways we never imagined. The awesome brainpower it took to decipher our latest gambit? Nothing short of amazing! Who can compete with intellects like that? Give up, I say!

4. By their logic,

all my fingernail clippings are going to wage a jihad on my bathroom garbage can because they're crescent shaped.
