America's French Friends Equate 911 With Global Warming


"Les Américains sont nos amis", they say, and Nicolas Hulot proves France's friendship by making an ad (merci à RV) that equates the murder of 3,000 Americans with… (with what? with global warming?!?!) by showing the trunks of a couple of trees (!!) standing like the Twin Towers on 911 being hit by hijacked airplanes (or the equivalent thereof) with the slogan For Nature, Everyday is 9/11

Needless to say, the ad has caused no controversy among America's immortal and undying French friends… (Indeed, it seems that a variance of the ad first appeared in Belgium — something nobody seems to have heard about, either, as controversy or otherwise — meaning there was little to no outcry (by Europeans) about that either…)

Here is where you can rate the brilliance and originality of the ad
