where they are the Americans, Frenchmen, English, Germans and Russians?

Only in century 19, they had more than killed 5 million people in its imperial colonies.

Another question: because the NORTH American if nominates Americans if they only possess 1/3 of the American continent. Because the ruling class in the USA is Jewish? Because the USA have as much hatred of the Arabs? Because the Jews hate the Arabs?

We're supposed to be commenting on the advertisement...
For political debate please go to youtube!

Although, the fact that this is generating discussion could mean that it's effective.

Nah, it's far too easy to stir up political debate these days...

Anyway, as for the AD - I like that it includes so many names of so-called 'terrorists' as branded by the US (mainly) which reminds us of the vast number of faceless boogie men we've been told to fear. The shape of the gun being made could imply that it's a dangerous cycle, but the only connection I make with the underground is that bombings have taken place in the subway, which is a weak link.

I'd love to see the film though!

Here's a suggestion: an internet page with links connected to each name/station leading to news stories about the subject...

The subject is contained in the movie being shown at the festival.

I guess the train line has a bearing on something without seeing the film it is hard to say.

Well done.

all these Arabs around a pistol, then Americans should be around a machine gun.

Meh, the tube map thing has been done to death (no pun intended)... and the parallel between that and the subject of the film is tenuous at best.
