Palestinians Whitewash Rainbow Flag on West Bank Barrier
(AP) Mohammed Daraghmeh - Palestinians whitewashed a rainbow flag of gay rights that was painted by a Palestinian artist on the West Bank separation barrier. Protesters perceived the flag as support for homosexuality, a taboo subject in Palestinian society, where gays are not tolerated. The artist, Khaled Jarrar, said the flag's destruction "reflects the absence of tolerance and freedoms in the Palestinian society."
