I'm a Jew and I understand the failings of the human species. Everyone needs to lighten up.

“The idea of the campaign isn’t to upset anybody. The way branding works is … you want people talking about your business. " This moron knew exactly what he was doing. He's based in Dubai and played to his market.

I would think that some there would say he was supporting a "Zionist myth". What are the censored words by the way? Are they rude terms in Arabic?

must be taken lightly in your world! Maybe you even deny the Holocaust! If you are a Jew why don't you come to Israel and meet some of the few Holocaust survivors left with their numbers tattooed on their arms and you can tell them to the faces to "lighten up" on what they went through in the Concentration Camps! A real Jew would never lighten up about the Holocaust just as an American would never lighten up over Pearl Harbor or 9/11! What this Brit has done is nothing more than Antisemitic and he probably thought it would amuse the Arabs in Dubai! Your comment is disgusting!

It is not clear: who complained about the ad? Dubai citizens? If yes, hats off for showing some human (and humane) face. If not, this is a non-news. Nazi images are used routinely in Muslim countries for whatever reason. At least Ahmed had the finesse to distance himself from it.

Instead of calling yourself ''joy'' call yourself ''misery'' then put a sock in your mouth & crawl back under your rock.

Try growing up not knowing & not receiving love from your grandparents who were killed at the hands of the sicko nazis. You post is sick.

Well, so much for this washed-up, lame slogan. Your true ugly colors are showing.

Not when it's about genocide Shep. I can't imagine a Jew making a comment like yours.

Fortunately there are good Arabs. He thought they would like the ads.

Well I guess none of your ancestors ever saw Hitler's gas chambers. There are still survivors of the death camps alive in Israel today, not to mention their children and even grandchildren who would think you and your remark nothing short of disgusting. There are some things about which you just don't joke, period. Got that, oh joyless one?

Well two can play at the same game. You show your stereotype Arab in saudi arabya beheading a person! The caption will say " dont lose your head" And lets see the arab reaction from Dubai.

Doesn't sound like an Arab name to me. I thought it was a local Muslim businessman, because Arabs are usually more anti-semitic than westerners. Guess I should have remembered that only 1 in 8 people in Dubai are actual citizens of the UAE.

have an ad with some women in their burkas and have a funny slogan..or perhaps proclaiming that allah is a lesbian and she is pretty pissed off. that would certainly be received well, wouldn't it? he says, oops, sorry if I offended anybody...right, dope.

This will show how fat they are and a warning to avoid being in a refugee camp.

the dubai audience, i am not surprised this idiot brit put up such a despicable ad.

This guy is not just an insensitive idiot, he was purposely doing what he knew was horrible. Maybe he thought that this would get a "positive" response with a Dubai audience ?

To Joy from NJ: I did not mean to recommend your comment, oh no!!! I meant to ask you where is the wolf and what you mean by asking #5 to not cry wolf. The holocaust did happen (do you know what it was???). You are invited to talk to victims-survivors who can attest to it. Do you even know what the "crying wolf" comes from? How can you equate this with crying wolf? Ignorance or stupidity?

If it means nothing, it should not have been written.

>Parkinson's son has Parkinson's! Funny huh? And to #25: you people??? Why don't you put a name under your burp so 'we people' could award your insightfulness with some light-spirited mockery, like yo momma has liver cancer or somethin :)

Half of my people, my race, my religion murdered; of course makes us touchy. How about you compare it to 3.5 billion common pagan masses?....

I do take offense at these pictures being used in that ad. My Uncle is in the picture on the lower left. So are Elie Wiesel (middle) and Mel Mermelstien (top-right). These were real people.
