British Airways responds: Ad Campaign Was Over
Thu, 15 Jan 2004
The spokesman for British Airways in Tel Aviv called our office an
hour or so after we sent out our letter of protest and this is their
reaction: "British Airways clarifies that the two week advertising
campaign has been completed by December 31th,2003."
David Tamir , of the Tamir-Cohen advertising agency called us too,
and this is what he had to say:
"We did not give the order to bring down billboards in any specific
location- but Maxi-Media, our subcontractor, was asked to bring
down all billboards in the entire country , because the advertising
campaign had come to an end".
Women in Green's comment:
Adam Keller and Gush Shalom deliberately mislead the public
and misquote David Tamir, the representative of Tamir-Cohen, the
advertising agency for British Airways, in order to promote their
political goals and to falsely give the impression that Gush Shalom
and British Airways are on the same political side, against Jewish
settlement in the land of Israel.
We are happy that this question has been clarified and that Gush
Shalom's ugly face has once again been revealed.
