I just clicked on a live link to the Mandela Memorial Service in Soweto from the Times of Israel website while I was at work and to my surprise, I saw a familiar image in the background behind the speakers. Check this out:
To the right of Thanduxolo Mandela (over his left shoulder) is an R4BIA poster (for more R4BIA coverage on Israellycool see here, here, here and here). Here’s a clear image of the symbol:
For several minutes I sat there and watched a couple of guys behind the speaker at this solemn occasion trying to draw attention to this symbol of the Muslim Brotherhood. There were a couple of them and they were also wearing the black image on their yellow T-Shirts. This went on for about 10 minutes until someone came and made them move – obviously explaining to them that such behaviour was inappropriate on such an occasion.
That transmission is going out to tens of millions – perhaps hundreds of millions of people around the world. I predict we’ll be seeing it a lot more R4BIA posters and T-Shirts at the upcoming World Cup in Brazil next summer, and in all sorts of other places. Put it in the red book.
