It could turn out to be the world’s longest graffiti space — the massive concrete barrier separating Israel from the Palestinians.
Over the Internet, a group of Palestinian graffiti artists is offering to spray-paint your personal message on Israel’s towering security wall in the occupied West Bank.
It costs 30 euros (28 pounds) per message and they can be as solemn or wacky as you want. Everything goes, except for obscene, offensive or extremist hate speech. Clients get three digital pictures of the finished product.
The 8-metre (25-foot) high barrier of massive concrete slabs is part of a 620-km (385-mile) fence Israel says is intended to keep suicide bombers out, and which can be dismantled at some point in the future when peace reigns.
No, the WNA article doesn’t mention that 95% of the “Wall” is actually only 10ft tall fencing or that the the intended reasoning behind the barrier’s creation is sound and that hundreds, if not thousands, of Israelis are alive today because of it’s construction.
But I thought you might like to know about how the “palestinians” are turning yet another item produced by Israeli blood sweat and tears into cash via bleeding heart leftists.
Here’s my message:
“The so-called leaders of “Palestine” are actually frauds, taking money meant for you and either spending it on luxuries or putting it in a Swiss account for themselves. Notice that you are dying, not them. Wake up. RISE UP!”
Think they’ll take it?
Since newspapers are going defunct over lost ad-revenue they could use it as a giant cklassified ad-space. The cost is about the same.
Will they spray-paint “God bless Israel” for 30 Euros?
DFW, I’m sure they’d classify that as “hate speech.”
This is a great idea for making a profit off the stupidity of others. I can photoshop any graffiti you want to pay me for, onto a picture of a wall, and it will look almost exactly like a picture of a wall with real graffiti on it.
So these folks offering to paint the wall may have a profit margin approaching 100% if they are computer literate. Of course, if they actually painted a wall (and how would one know what wall was shown in the picture emailed to you, after you paid up?) with the desired graffiti, their profit margin would still be very close to 100%, so why not just use the back wall of the family home.
Tom Sawyer would not only be jealous of these guys, he’d probably to get in on the deal.
