Has anyone else read this or heard about it, is there any truth to it. Let me know. Thanks

Guess I will not be drinking Starbucks any more! Recently Marines in Iraq
wrote to Starbucks because they wanted to let them know how much they liked
their coffees and to request that they send some of it to the troops there.

Starbucks replied, telling the Marines thank you for their support of their
business, but that Starbucks does not support the war, nor anyone in it, and
that they would not send the troops their brand of coffee. So as not to
offend Starbucks, maybe we should not support them by buying any of their
products! As a war vet writing to fellow patriots, I feel we should get this
out in the open. I know this war might not be very popular with some folks,
but that doesn't mean we don't support the boys on the ground fighting
street-to-street and house-to-house for what they and I believe is right. If
you feel the same as I do then pass this along, or you can discard it and no
one will never know. Thanks very much for your support. I know you'll all be
there again when I deploy once more.
