Day 15 - Shabbat 29 May 2010Another addition to the Jerusalem Graffiti series, my thoughts on this are twofold.
One, that the person who tagged this helpless electricity box merely cannot spell; or is actually playing a smart game with words and trying to continue the label of Israel being an apartheid state (as seen in Afrikaans with 'k' often replacing a 'c').
Two, that the title of this photo, Censorship, stands to prove that in Israel, although we are surrounded by the feeling of holiness, that age old saying rings true, 'nothing is sacred.'
View will be spread, and ideas will be propagated - censorship of foul language is something we can try to stop, but the irony I'm trying to show is that in our modern world of media warfare, how much is 'Big Brother' really watching and controlling nowadays?
