Israeli Supermarket Advertisers Channel Hamas Leader’s Assassins

The assassination of Hamas commander Mahmoud al-Mabhouh made for some pretty exciting news, who would have thought that it could help to sell groceries?

Apparently the creative minds behind an advertisement for the Mahsaney Kimat Hinam (“Almost Free Warehouses”) grocery and retail chain thought they could. A man with a tennis racket was there, so was a woman with a hat and it was all tied together with some grainy CCTV-esque footage in order to promote “the shooting down of prices”.

Presumably no foreign passports were used in the shooting of the commercial, but that doesn’t make it any less crass.
