[edit] List of Countries
I have added a list of countries where it is distributed. Well, only 8 so far, but I will add more in the next few days. I plan on adding some history, charity contributions, and other info on the company in the next few days. Tell me how what you think. ko268 12:33am, 27 Februrary, 2008. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ko268 (talk • contribs) 05:34, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Question on Website Quote
The quote from its website "associations who work towards peace in the world and especially for peace in the conflict between Palestinians and fascist Zionist apartheid" is also listed under on the Evoca Cola page. Is this coincidental or are they tied together somehow?

[edit] Arafat
'The beverage became a favorite drink of Yasser Arafat a few days before he died.' - can this be confirmed? Burgundavia 21:31, Mar 24, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Categories
Is there a category for every specific manifestation of Anti-Americanism. Heres a good candidate. --- 18 May 2006, AJ (no username)
It's anti-American to donate to Palestine and to not sell in the USA? I never knew that! Armyrifle 00:00, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
Yes this brand was anti-American and antisemitic. According to the BBC Article: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/2640259.stm "It is all about combating "America's imperialism and Zionism by providing a substitute for American goods and increasing the blockade of countries boycotting American goods," Mr Mathlouthi told BBC News Online." Interesting why this quotation was not added to the article? Now their site is www.mecca-cola.com dead. As Coca Cola said "Ultimately it is the consumer who will make the decision" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.136.28.254 (talk) 18:33, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

This is so hilarious! They're working peace?!: "associations who work towards peace in the world and especially for peace in the conflict between Palestinians and fascist Zionist apartheid."--Urthogie 04:02, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
While I hate Mecca Cola for its extremely wrong position on the Israeli Palestinian conflict and calling Israel a fascist state, I don't think this discussion is meant for you and me to share political opinions but rather to discuss the article from a technical point of view. Thanks. Northern 17:55, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
Indeed Northern, which is why you should have kept that opinion to yourself. ;-) Angrynight 01:52, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
And do not edit my replies please. Northern 14:20, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
where did you guys get that ikhwan stuff into this article? muslim brotherhood has nothing to do with this business
[edit] "Pro-Muslim consumers"
WTF is "pro-Muslim consumers" supposed to mean? If it's targeted at Muslims, it should just say that. -- int19h 14:39, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
Because it is not neccessarily targeted at Muslims, rather those that support Muslim companies. I agree that the wording Is a little vague but I think if it just said "Pro-Muslim coorperation consumers" it would be more confusing than it already is.
And another question about the accuracy of the slogan? I've never seen that slogan used, although I've seen others. Lost in translation, maybe but I'm pretty sure the company would go through the effort to translate their own slogans rather than have someone misquote them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.151.187.163 (talk) 08:19, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
