Israel describes it as a vital security barrier, while the UN says it's illegal. But as far as the guerrilla graffiti artist Banksy is concerned, the 425-mile long barrier that separates Israel from the Palestinian territories is a vast concrete canvas too tempting to resist.

Banksy also records on his website how an old Palestinian man said his painting made the wall look beautiful. Banksy thanked him, only to be told: "We don't want it to be beautiful, we hate this wall. Go home."

:D

How many millions of dollars was he offered to do Nike's Ad campaign again?

I know he didn't take it and chose to remain anonynous.

Doesn't look like the political type of stencil he usually does.

Well on some of the other images I have seen, he has done big cracks in the wall, looking out onto beaches and stuff. It's really quite cool.

Well, it is really. Looking out onto mountains, this is a wall despised by many, in a troubled place. I am sure someone who knew shit could find out what it means. I am not very good at looking at meanings of stuff.
