Iraqi fish restaurant hooks on to Trump brand

Hook, line, and sinker! An Iraqi restaurateur, delighted by Donald Trump's promise to arm Kurdish forces in their fight against Islamic State terrorists, has named his fish restaurant after the US President-elect.
Nadyar Zawiti jumped on to the Trump gravy train particularly enthusiastically, naming his restaurant as 'Trump Fish' in the northern city of Dohuk in Iraqi Kurdistan.
Zawiti heard Trump say during the campaign that he was a big fan of Kurdish forces and called for the US to arm them in their fight against ISIS, CNN reported.
"What I admire about Trump's personality," Zawite says, "is that he's decisive, he's tough, and hopefully with that toughness he'll finish ISIS off."

The restaurant's logo features Trump's hair and eyebrows in the shape of lightning bolts.
The restaurant sells "maskouf," Iraq's national dish of oily carp cooked over an open fire.

Nadyar shrugs off Trump's controversial pledge to ban all Muslims from entering the US as mere campaign rhetoric.
He even hopes to someday open a branch of Trump Fish near the White House -- if Trump will invite him in, that is.
And he's not the only dedicated fan of the President-elect to be found in the region.
Hassan Jamil, a Peshmerga fighter, even named his newborn baby as Trump Hassan Jamil, the report said.

Of the unusual choice of moniker bestowed on the three-week-old, Jamil explained, "I called him Trump because he is charismatic and has clear policies and that's why he won the election".
