Ambassador wrecks Swedish Exhibit

[Via little green footballs]

The Israeli ambassador to Sweden smashed an exhibit at the Stockholm International Forum: Preventing Genocide - Threats and Responsibilities:
"This was not a piece of art," the ambassador told Sweden's SR radio news station. "It was a monstrosity."

"For me it was intolerable and an insult to the families of the victims," he said. "As ambassador [of] Israel I could not remain indifferent to such an obscene misrepresentation of reality."
Dror Feiler the artist of the piece:

As a political activist, Feiler is president of Jews for Israeli Palestinian Peace, which initiated a campaign entitled "Jewish Manifesto: Sharon is Israel's Worst Enemy."

Feiler describes himself as the "eye-bleeding ultimate composer of intifadic and eruptive lung-outs."
Good for the ambassador.
