Step into any shop in Dahiya, the Hezbollah-controlled suburb of Beirut, and you're bound to find a variety of peculiar souvenirs portraying the face of Hezbollah's Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah.
Love him or hate him, he's popular, and apparently, he's everywhere.
Here are some of the more unique tchockes that I found during my last visit to Lebanon.
Fridge Magnet and Air Freshener that reads "Mr. Uprising"
Stamps
Solar Powered Keychains
Lighter that projects Nasrallah's image
Cologne: "The Scent of Uprising and Victory."
Doorbell that plays the first few phrases of Nasrallah's "Victory Speech" after the July 2006 war with Israel.
Ring
A black mug that, when filled with hot water, reveals Nasrallah's face.

Do a google search on "obama memorabilia" for even more bizarre and disturbing "propaganda"!
That is some pretty badass stuff, I'm impressed.
I always heard that the Koran forbids picture/likenesses of humans - something about humility and such
Guess I'm incorrect
