    Banksy in Palestine
    here's a video of Banksy throwing up some pieces in Palestine. The wall was built by Israel and runs along its border.

  • Very cool piece, I love being introduced to up and coming artists. I think he's leading a very healthy and very relevant discussion, but I do get worried about the debate on America being oversimplified and bifurcated so starkly against the "usual suspect" issues of violence and religion.

    While those are arguably some of our biggest (or at least most visible) issues and problems, where is his exhibit does he showcase the "love" component of his "love/hate" relationship he claims to have with the US?

    What about our contributions to technology, film, art, music and medicine?

    The discussion of a paradox (which America is in many ways) is only really a healthy one when it accommodates both sides of the story.
