Benetton pulls ad featuring doctored photo of pope kissing imam

By Dan Gilgoff, CNN.com Religion Editor

(CNN) - United Colors of Benetton announced Wednesday it is pulling an ad featuring a doctored picture of the pope kissing a male Muslim cleric on the same day the ad was unveiled in response to criticism.

The ad featured a fake picture of Pope Benedict XVI kissing Ahmed Mohamed el-Tayeb, imam of the Al-Azhar mosque, a prominent Muslim house of worship in Cairo, Egypt.

"We reiterate that the meaning of this campaign is exclusively to combat the culture of hatred in all its forms," Benetton said in a statement on Wednesday.

..."combat the culture of hatred...."?? That's why they posted this ad? Can I post a doctored photo of a Rabbi kissing the pope? Can I do ANYTHING that would offend a Jew? No. Why? Because we MURDERED so many of them that we feel badly....this is what it takes for us to show "respect"...lots and lots of murder.

This ad was the RESULT of hatred!
