I imagine The Benetton Boss was abducted by some bimbo on a yatch somewhere and this is what his team came up with as a big joke on the world leaders for all the free time they had... Some of these images are photo shopped , they tried to make some sort of correlation between enemies on opposite sides of the political fence but damn.....to have em making out like this?..Nicky and Angel got their hands over each other right there... *cough*
Italian clothing maker Benetton withdrew an ad from its so-called “un-hate” campaign that shows world leaders kissing, the latest after criticism from the Vatican over an image showing
Pope Benedict XVI kissing a leading Muslim cleric Mohammed Ahmed al-Tayeb, the grand sheikh of Cairo’s al-Azhar mosque. |
President Sarkozy and German chancellor Angela Merkel |
U.S. President Barak Obama kissing Hu Jintao, the president of the People’s Republic of China, another showing Obama kissing Venezuelan leader Huga Chavez |
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas kissing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu |
All the ads carry a simple tagline reading “Un-hate,” Benetton’s logo, text indicating that the company supports the Unhate Foundation, an organization Benetton founded to “increase tolerance worldwide.”
Benetton saysThe UNHATE Foundation, desired and founded by the Benetton Group, seeks to contribute to the creation of a new culture of tolerance, to combat hatred, building on Benetton’s underpinning values. It is another important step in the group’s social responsibility strategy: not a cosmetic exercise, but a contribution that will have a real impact on the international community, especially through the vehicle of communication, which can reach social players in different areas.
