Armored dove of peace (Banksy) - one of the most frequently viewed murals in Betlehem, on the main road between Rachel’s Crossing and the Church of the Nativity, is that of the “targeted dove”. Here, a dove carrying an olive branch wears a bulletproof vest, while the cross-hairs of a rifle periscope target its breast. This picture has additional resonance for Christian visitors familiar with the biblical story of Noah and the dove sent out to find dry ground after the great flood #banksy #art #streetart #graffiti #graffitiphotographer #graffitiartist #mural #peace #doveofpeace #armor #target #sadstory #bethlehem #westbank #israel #израиль #palestine #jordan #lebanon #egypt #syria #history #historylover #historynerd #holyland #conflict #jerusalem #telaviv #haifa
