		Zamzam Cola, Iran’s “Islamic” version of Coke has hit the shelves of Baharain’s supermarkets as residents of the Gulf kingdom increasingly express their frustration at United States policy on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by boycotting American products, reports AFP.
		Millions of Muslim pilgrims who visit Mecca every year, either on the annual hajj or on other religious occasions, use large quantities of water from Zamzam, reportedly the world’s oldest running spring, because they think it is “holy” and has healing properties.
		In marked contrast with the close relations at official level between Washington and Manama, home to the United States Navy’s Fifth Fleet and a “major non-NATO ally” of the United States, anti-United States sentiment spread like wildfire in Baharain after Israel launched a massive military offensive in the West Bank in late March.

		As for Qibla Cola, I saw it in one Indian take-away in the Golborne Road, W10, for a while, then stocks ran out and they weren't replenished (and then the take-away closed and the site was taken over by the Moroccan Grill).
