​The Russian Embassy sits along the beachfront promenade in Tel Aviv. Under municipal bylaws, walking around in swimwear is permitted within 500 meters of the beach; we were just 200 meters from the water. We didn't break any laws, local or international. ​We arrived fully prepared, having carefully rehearsed the action and coordinated our attire. The reporters and photographers we invited were already waiting for us. ​We dropped our pants and began splashing red gouache paint on each other. We had to act fast—embassy security had already rushed out and started confronting us, calling the Border Police for reinforcement. ​I walked straight toward the Border Police jeep, reached out for a handshake, introduced myself and the action, and requested just five minutes to take photos, promising we would pack up and leave immediately after. They agreed. ​I placed a plastic bag over my head and let my friends handcuff me while I stood in my underwear, creating a chilling depiction of horror from ukrain. The contrast between the vibrant promenade, the brutalist concrete architecture of the Russian Embassy, and our fragile performance formed the perfect image—one that would circulate globally, penetrate the guarded gates of cautious editors, and force the press to publish the words previously blocked from reaching the public. This photo hangs in the Israel Museum and has won award, After doing it job gaining global resonance. For more talk to me

Israel this week. An important explanation regarding this week's drama in Israel I hope you will listen with full haert. https://youtu.be/uX3xrxjoYa8?si=cYoE2VfgGCz4hAPB

They are protesting in 13 place in the Netherlands using kites (the first screenshot is from Groningen, my city, and actually this place is not far from my house). The kites are an interesting choice, because on one hand it symbolizes innocence, and on the other hand it has been used as a weapon to cause fires in Israel. Now they use it in protests, ignoring the second part, misleading the public. It's crazy and evil. So, I called them out for that. My comment: "In the past, particularly in 2018, kites and balloons were launched from Gaza carrying incendiary materials across the border into Israel. More than 1,500 fires were started in this way, causing extensive damage to nature and agricultural land in Israel." And the first commenter: "Jasper Roest oh yes and you think this is a reason to target totally innocent children. Go away dude. It makes me nauseous." And my reply: "Lianne de Roo You come up with all kinds of accusations that are not based on anything, because I am not saying that I think so at all. I'm just saying that kites and balloons have been used a lot for arson. It would be to your credit if you would take back your accusations." I am curious what you think of this, and I would like to learn some more background about the kites in Israel from the Israeli reading this. Are they forbidden? If so, how do they police this? I understand that in 2018 they were used as a weapon to cause fires, is this still the case? See this post/discussion: https://lnkd.in/p/eu8kfbAu
