    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”.

      The AFP had something to do with that video??? I fail to see it. Or is it just the implied connection because they are investigating the passports fraud?

      Yeah,I saw that bit, what was confounding me is what the content that is related to the AFP was.
