should we M7md? I am glad that i replied the first..just want to clarify something.. the adv just wanted to use an idea ..and it symbolized it ..it didn't even give an opinion about that ..neither with nor against...so i don't think it should be offensive to anyone..unless u decide to be offended ...wink.gif

nice adv anyway...smile.gif

Dear Yezen,
I think you didn't get my question.....So let me put it this way:
Why the h-ell did they show an (Arabic-or-Muslim)-looking man in the adv.????
Why not an Irish*-looking man for example?


**The Republican Irish Army did do some car bombings in Britain during the 90s

I got it in the first place M7md and i answered.. but i will make it simpler for u smile.gif ..

they wanted to symbolize to someone who is blowing himself..and i guess most probably he will be an arabic guy...as simple as that...smile.gif

if i want to refer to someone good at football ..i'd put a guy with the brazilian uniform.. without judging .. just symbolization...wink.gif

that's funny mohamed ja3far, it's alread dircted to the iraqis i guess,

well,
m7md,
i don't wanna go through politics,
but you presented a very critical and a wise idea:
"why not irish?"
the terorism is diffrent from violence,
the republican irish army is not a terorist organization,
they only use vioulence to reach their goals, and to have their "rights", they are suppoted by not bad part of their people,
thier operations are restricted to u.k.
as i belive....

but the terorists,
i mean the fanatic islamists,
they use violence to reach thier goals, and to have their "rights"
in operations here and there, and they are not supported by the majority,
they think that they even refuse to nigociate!

i'm sure you're awared about what i'm talking about,
but my point is,

i have no reaction,
because it's right that most of terorisms now are muslims,
and i dont have to react because they dont represent me or my religion,

and if there are some stupid in this world who generlise this idea to all muslims like polo,
it's not my problem,
it's their problem,
all i can say is that it's a cheap way to pay the attention to thier product!

take care,
no bombing cars anymore, that's the goodnews:)
