(live here in the wild) - The inscription "TA 37" was sprayed on the rocks near the Spring of Salvation (Ein al Faraj - in Arabic) in Wadi Shikh in Haifa. The incident took place over the weekend, but as of today (Tuesday 18/7/23), the spray has not yet been cleaned and removed. Itamar Galili, Encountered vandalism while walking in the stream.
Itamar Galili, who has known the place since 1968 and travels there every day, tells Lehi here:
"This is the first time I've come across the vandalism of the place. It's vandalism per se. We're not talking about littering (which is also not good, but a well-known phenomenon...), but spraying inscriptions on stones in the wild in Wadi Shikh is the first time I've seen... I don't even know how This destructive graffiti can be cleaned and removed from the rocks."
vandalism
Vandalizing a public place, by spraying graffiti, is actually considered vandalism for everything. Vandalism is an action in which a person decides to destroy private or public property, which is not under his ownership, according to the law.
The acts of vandalism are usually done without an understandable reason, and without any clear benefit being derived from them, except for the pleasure of the vandals from the very act of vandalism. The punishment for acts of vandalism on public property is actual imprisonment of up to 3 months - a punishment that hardly exists in the State of Israel.
The ways in which acts of vandalism can be prevented are of course the installation of security cameras for the purpose of deterring vandals. The removal of the graffiti is the responsibility of the municipality.
I'm sorry: but this is the real anarchism:
"And the man who is righteous in his own eyes will do"
And there is no political issue here!
It is everywhere. The same address also appears in Nahal Saadia. same color Someone is a serial vandal. He should be caught and punished. Let him remember not to vandalize public space.
It starts and ends with education.
Keep having more children without bothering to invest in their education and that is what you will get.
And it will only get worse - because they are going to have children of their own and they won't even know what is wrong with their "parenting"
right. how sad it is
The time has come for Nahal Shikh and Bostan Chiat and Nahal Saadia to be regulated. Wonderful places with stunning tourist potential that have been neglected for years
What a beautiful place, people a little compassion for nature, one of the most beautiful places in Haifa
We would be happy for some journalistic work around "cell 37" because it is…. Relevant, compared to everything else you wrote
This is how it is in a world with social and economic disparities that only keep expanding, some children have support, education and all their needs and most have less. James Gilligan, the psychiatrist who studies violence, points out that violence stems from the feeling of humiliation and inferiority, which is a relative thing, when there is a gap between the person and the other person. Enforcement, punishment, fines and imprisonment only touch the tip of the iceberg of the symptom.
You don't say! The majority of these minorities can buy you
What feelings of inferiority and humiliation are you talking about?
It is a matter of defiance towards Jewish rule.
The Louis Promenade was also sprayed by Arab teenagers who celebrated the end of their school year there with riots in cars, explosive fireworks and vandalism of property. There is yellow graffiti on bins, stones, steps and benches.
This is how it is in a country of plea deals, the lack of enforcement and deterrence of the law and the police, and a legal circus of dysfunctional prosecutors and police who close cases wholesale and enable rampant crime, because it then employs more legal manpower..
Not the first time. Good night
Unfortunately, the sprays are also known. In the center of Carmel there are many sprays. The piano was sprayed at the time. They sprayed a beautiful stone building on the corner of Shaar HaLevanon St., which was built to hide garbage cans. The Panorama Towers are being sprayed with news every morning and they are constantly working to clean up the sprays.
Only a high financial fine will possibly prevent the spraying in every corner, provided of course that the law is enforced.
Definitely not the first time, Itamar, you probably don't remember. A year or two ago, they sprayed the entire area of the spring with blue Star of David inscriptions. The church too, just like a price tag operation. Delete it or it deletes itself after a few months.
The Turkish bridge in Nahal Saadia is also sprayed with the same address Tel 37
