WHAT A COMMERCIAL!
What is more important is that you see how mainstream this is in South America. Would you see this on American TV?

Harvest Festival, Mendoza
At the Fiesta de la Vendimia (Harvest Festival), where this dance occured in March 2012 – (remember March is the start of South America’s autumn) – these dancers were pulled by a tractor trailer with the name of Arab Car World. Not that a sign on the trailer says Arab Planet.
From Mendoza, Argentina
Mendoza, Argentina is a province in West Central Argentina with a capital city (of the same name). Greater Mendoza is the largest wine growing region of South America; and is also noted for olive oil production.
The climate is quasi-Mediterranean.
There are a lot of Arabs in the area.
They have an Islamic Center in Mendoza; but again, one has to remember that Islam is still weak in Argentina, and most Muslims are not practicing. Most Arabs in Latin America are Christian.
