Foreign Ministry Weighs Painting Security Barrier
(Maariv International) Eliel Shahar - Israel's Foreign Ministry public relations wizards have come up with an idea to tone down the damage to Israel's public image from the separation fence - paint it in gay colors. Only 10 of the current 200 km of the barrier consist of actual, easily paintable concrete walls. According to a Foreign Ministry official, "A colorfully painted barrier would be more aesthetic." Meanwhile, the municipality of The Hague approved a request by Zaka, the ultra-Orthodox rescue and casualty identification volunteer group, to display the Jerusalem bus that was blown up on January 29. Because of the tight timetable, the hulk of the bus will be cut in two and sent by air.
