    Funny thing: “Moroccanoil” is the headsponsor of this years Eurovision Song Festival. Maroccanoil is an Israeli company.

      Why is a company called “Moroccan Oil” from Israel? I feel like they should be from…somewhere else.

        They use oil from there afaik. Maybe there are other reasons, but you can verify it’s an Israeli company.

        BP (British Petroleum) bought Amoco, which stood for American Oil Company, and didn’t change its name for a long time. Then, for a while, it was “BP Amoco,” which, when spelled out, would be, “British Petroleum American Oil Comapny.” Good job guys.

        And then there is the German-owned BMW, which makes and sells the (formerly British) Mini Cooper, and still has the rear break lights look like the Union Jack.
