I see. I have even a better idea. Why not start a campaign for users to create ads for Israel? The government could do something like provide free tickets to the Holy Land for the winner, or a free stay at a hotel (have the hotel or airline sponsor this for publicity). What do you think about that idea? Budget problems? I see.

Pitching a photo shoot of famous Israeli athletes (Jewish and non-Jewish) is another great way to reach a young American male audience.

So we need big, exciting, and absolutely cheap ideas (like this blog, the maxim shoot, etc...).

It looks like he is reading in a solitary place, but as you slowly pan out, you realize that he is at the beach (cue for sea gull sounds). As you pan out even further, you see he is on a bench, and next to him is a lady in a bathing suit, reading a fashion magazine (or a business one, you get to choose). As the camera slowly pans out, you see other people around them, kids playing with a ball, people throwing frisbee, etc. As you pan out even higher, you see more people until you are about 100 feet up and then you see a guy on a powered paragliding device flying above it all, then end the commercial with, "Israel, its like no other place on Earth." (or whatever slogan you choose). --------[imagination off]-------- That's my commercial idea, although I have no clue how you will show this in 30 seconds. Alright, here is my idea (originally emailed)

The photo spread could feature Israeli tennis players Shahar Peer, Andy Ram, and Jonathan Erlich; soccer players such as Yossi Benayoun, Tal Ben-Chaim, and Nir Davidovich; and basketball players Derrick Sharp, Jamie Arnold, and Sharon Shason (Sharp and Arnold are non-Jewish Americans who play for Maccabi Tel Aviv).
