They just transliterate (not translate) it using Arabic letters that spell out the sound "Starbucks Coffee." They do that with damn near anything. They don't translate "Star," "bucks" or even "coffee" and put them together to form the Arabic equivalent. I understand doing that with a word like "Starbucks" that has no real meaning in Arabic. I don't understand why they don't use the Arabic word for "coffee," though, which is "KaHwah."

I think I recognize this. Is this at a mall in Kuwait City? I haven't been there in a few years, but it sticks out in my memory.

To those below wondering about Starbucks, yes, there are Starbucks all over the Middle East (though not in Iraq). We have four of them that I can think of in Oman.

Love the perspective in this shot, really gives the feeling of desolation of the desert! Excellent choice of color as well!

That is hilarious! And the goat has this look on his face like, "What. . . what are you looking at, lady?"
