A little over a day after the sickening branding of a Shawarma restaurant in Jordan made headlines, new documentation reveals that the sign at the restaurant's entrance has been completely taken down.
The "October 7" restaurant in the city of Karak in southern Jordan caused a stir after a document of it selling shawarma under a brand, intended to celebrate the events of the massacre carried out by Hamas terrorists in the residents of the Gaza Strip, went online.
The haste to remove the branding from the business suggests a possible intervention by the security services in Jordan, who hold enormous power in the country and often intervene when the authorities end up being embarrassed.
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING

Personalities in Israel, including ministers, expressed outrage after the restaurant's outrageous name was revealed.
The chairman of the opposition, Yair Lapid, tweeted today (Thursday) on his page on the X network (formerly Twitter): "The disgraceful glorification of October 7 must stop.
The incitement and hatred against Israelis fuels the terrorism and extremism that led to the brutal massacre on October 7," he wrote, adding: "We expect the Jordanian government to condemn this publicly and unequivocally."
According to the reports of the media website ALBAWABA, this is a shawarma and kebab restaurant located in the city of Karak in Jordan, and the choice of name is of course a reference to the events of the terrible massacre.
The advertisement about the restaurant, accompanied by a video and photos, quickly became viral on the net and gained thousands of comments and shares.
These ranged from support and enthusiasm from pro-Palestinian surfers who praised the choice of name and chanted against Israel, and surfers who were horrified by the choice of the shocking name and its anti-Semitic connotations.
