wasn't it your ancestors that murdered millions of indians and looted their lands?
cut the crap you racist bastard.

Let's refrain from name-calling, shall we? A polite rebuke would be sufficient, don't you think? Such as: Please don't make blanketed, offensive statements about a group of people please. Thanks.

Cut it out homey, this is "Ads of the World" not "war of the worlds."

Argentian? wasnt your last president half Syrian (An Arab)?
Dont forget you originally come from Spain, so if you have dark skin and dark hair than your ancestors probably got raped by an Arab too.
Whether you like it or not, you are part Arab mate.

Nicely done Saudi Arabia. Well executed. Good example of taking a global positioning and making it local.

This is crap. All you are saying is that Samsonite is a wasteful product, put it to some other uses. It really brings the brand image down.

Too forced

I will not say anything about the effectiveness of the idea, it's for the market response or award giving bodies to tell. However, visually, some elements are missing like bullet holes in the sand bags, smokes, etc. I'm imagining something like a scene from 'Band of Brothers'.
