Iran Says It May Ban Samsung Over Israeli Commercial Depicting Mossad Agents Blowing Up Nuke Plant…
Via WaPo:
As Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei delivered an impassioned anti-Israel speech Friday, a smaller fight played out between the two countries over a tablet commercial.
In the teaser, a bored agent for Mossad, Israel’s national intelligence agency, is shown watching TV on his Samsung tablet while in Isfahan, south of Tehran. After the agent begins conversing about the features of the tablet with several Iranian “women” (actually men from an Israeli TV show), one of them presses on the tablet and accidentially blows up a nearby uranium enrichment plant.
The whole scene is depicted as light-hearted, but the message is not. “What? Another mysterious explosion in Iran?” one of the character asks. It’s a reference to a number of recent explosions at Iran’s military facilities. Iran has blamed many of these explosions on Israel, saying its nuclear program is being targeted.
On Thursday, a top Iranian lawmaker said the country’s parliament was considering cutting trade ties to Samsung, Press TV reported.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…..after shoveling snow for 2 hours I can barely catch my breath
Psyops against Iran and the mule heads.
*yawn*
Hurry up and bomb them already, Israel
outside of a strongly worded Presidential speech, the US wont do anything.
I guess my next electronics will be Samsung !
Lmao!
Wish they had it subtitled.
The Israelis have a great sense of humor.
Muslims are no fun and cannot take a joke.
If they could work that GEICO lizard and the Budweiser frogs into the commercial, it’d be (to quote Rod Blagojevich) f*&%^ golden!
Could’nt understand a damn word they said,but is was funny
NOW that is funny!
Samsung is the leading supplier of electronics, refrigerators, and air conditioners to Iran.
First question: Do they HAVE any “trade ties” to Samsung?
I am laughing in Hebrew.
אני צוחקת
HA HA HA that was funny as shit – I fucking hate anyone who doesn’t have a sense of humor and can’t take a joke (and that seems to be all of them!!) It will be even funnier when they get the shit bombed out of them for REAL!!!
…. I don’t care who you are, that’s funny right there.
My Samsung TV is getting a little old, good to know I can proudly buy another one of their products to replace it.
One of the best things I’ve seen in a long time…
Even funnier that unshaven guys can pass for Iranian women!!
CAIR calls for a boycott of Samsung in……………………………………….
This is great—totally funny, love the end—
I love my Samsung tv….I hope they don’t wimp out.
LOL!
TV commercial writers have more courage than our politicians .
I gotta see that commercial on You tube. And my next TV will be a Samsung, that’s for damn sure.
What’s the trouble? Seems they are good at seeing for themselves in plain life, all without the help of Samsung, all kinds of things exploding.
Oops. I guess if it’s someone else showing them how goofy this all is, t hen they don’t much appreciate it.
Who’d have guessed?
Ha! How ’bout that other funny commercial where the Israelis’ Dimona nuclear plant gets blown up.
“It will be even funnier when they get the shit bombed out of them for REAL,” those Israelis hoarding all their nuclear weapons.
As MN Jim wrote, [Jews] “are no fun and cannot take a joke.”
“I guess if it’s someone else showing them how goofy this all is, then they don’t much appreciate it.”
I loved this..and no they don’t have any sense of humor. Yawn..another threat-
This would be hilarious were the ramifications not going to be so enormous, globally.
