Controversial Cellcom Soccer Commercial

This advertisement for an Israeli cellphone (Cellcom) firm showing soldiers playing football over the West Bank barrier has sparked cries of bad taste and prompted Arab lawmakers to demand it be taken off the air. Cellcom defends ad, critics say it demonstrates alienation.

According to the UN and 'international Community' The Jews building a wall or having checkpoints is worse than Jews being blown up by nail packed bombs as they travel by Bus.

Perhaps they think the Jews should have thrown flowers at the terrorist scum that attack innocent civilians instead?

I love that defensive wall could do with a minefield in front of it and a few gun towers though.

I'm pretty sure this is a demonstration of us overcoming the barriers which separate us. This is a great commercial.

If you were normal people there wouldn't be a fence. you had your chance and you decided terror.

When left wing movie makers and peace activists show that Palestinian terrorists are like Israeli soldiers. Or that Arabs civilians are just like Israeli civilians(although they want to kill every Jew in the whole world -alright, at least their leaders do-) Then its alright, but when its made the other way around, then its not?!

@scspurs1992 If it was fighting Hamas, why is it targeting civilians, civilian industry, power-plants, sewage systems? Why are they not permitting for Palestinians from the W-Bank to visit relatives in Gaza? Why are the not letting pregnant women access ambulances? Israel is not only fighting Hamas, but the whole civilian population

[scspurs1992]

@engelolo if only you understood the reality of the situation, israel is not fighting Palestinians its fighting groups such as hamas which are not only accepted as terrorist organisations by the un but are also proxies of a a very powerful enemy, Iran.
