Jaslene did walk, check the style.com, as well as Neabelle (sp?) one of the models from Janice Dickinson's agency.

Also, Rami Kashou is A Jersulem born, Ramallah raised Palestinian-Arab Christian.

I don't think he ever said *he* was Muslim, I thought the muslim reference was more to the area/culture...

correct me, If I'm wrong

I will chose to not get into the ethical/choice argument that has been so greatly debated on both sides by the previous 152 comments.

However, guest #139, Louis and Fendi and whomever else is being knocked off on Canal, are losing intangible wealth in terms of intellectual property rights, surely, but actually liquid cash flow--not so much. They can't be losing money for transactions or funds that were never in their possession. Perhaps just a semantic argument, but for all its worth the people buying Canal St. knockoffs were probably never going to (or obviously by their actions could afford to) buy Fendi or LV. So in reality, those companies are not at a loss per se. Although surely they should have monetary rights to their designs. But given the choice between $1200 purse and a $30 purse, the knockoff buyer has already acted in a manner that would never have benefited the Originators.
