"The Controversial Murder Is An Ideal Topic For A Commercial"

HaHa, we murder at will, is funny, yes?

Israeli TV commercial spoofs Dubai assassination

"You might not think there was anything particularly funny about the assassination of Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai on January 19 - allegedly by agents of Israel's dreaded Mossad secret service using stolen identities. But then again, you might not live in Israel. An Israeli supermarket chain certainly knows a joke when it sees one and recently commissioned a TV commercial spoofing the hit, calling it "a funny take of the event."
As reported by news agencies, on Wednesday the discount Mahsanei Kimat Hinam (The Almost Free Warehouse) chain filmed a commercial using footage from its own surveillance cameras. Three actors stroll through the frozen section wearing odd clothes and carrying tennis gear as they "secretly" place items into their shopping cart. This is an obvious reference to hotel security camera images showing the alleged Mossad assassins walking through the lobby and corridors of the Al-Bustan Rotana Hotel in similarly conspicuous apparel. An actress wearing a floppy hat comments on camera that she "cannot admit to anything," recalling Israel's long-standing policy of refusing to comment on Mossad activities. The commercial's slogan is: "Eliminate the prices."



Careful you Israelis, or you'll get a reputation as a nation full of sick fucks.

Oh, that's right.
