Banksy returns to Bethlehem

Banksy has painted new murals on the West Bank barrier which runs beside
Bethlehem.


The murals are part of an exhibition in Bethlehem opening on Monday. Several other international and Palestinian artists are taking part.


Here, in the town of Jesus's birth, an Israeli soldier examines the ID card of the Christmas donkey.

The irony of the bottom image is priceless although I doubt the 'artist' even knows what it is. Shame.

fbllks: You've got to be kidding?! I doubt the 'designer' knows anything about Banksy.

sheesh dude, i guess he doesn't have anything to say about those peace loving Palestinians bombing citizen markets or lobbing missiles deep in the heart of israel as to inflict the most civilian casualties. I bet you don't have much to say about it either. Or those peace loving palestinians saying theyre gonna "wipe israel off the map"

I find your term "peace loving Palestinians" very offense, to intimate that the majority of Palestinians aren't advocates of peace is absurd and shows a lack of any in depth knowledge of the situation faced by both side. YOU RETARD

LoungeKat: I appreciate your concern but don't you worry yourself about it, I do know about Banksy which is why I commented in the first place.

I agree with atomaweapon that we don't see any derogatory comments about what the Palestinians are doing BUT I also agree with TahirIqbal that not all Palestinians are war hungry. Although I doubt that is what atomaweapon intented. While the majority of Palestinians are most likely peaceful and against war it is a fact that statements like "wipe Israel off the map" are being said (speaking from first hand experience) as well as constant bombings. We don't see murals showing the other side being glamourised in such a way as these. A little balance would be expected rather than one sided propaganda. Artwork advocating peace rather than trying to blame one side would be far more appropriate. Even better that people do a little research into the topic. A lack of any in depth knowledge is clearly being shown in the images.

Yes, Tahiriqbal, that finishing touch of "YOU RETARD" shows us all how much 'depth' there is to your mind.
