First there was the Hebrew slogan (long live Israel= Am Israel Hai)
Then the artist added the word "beseret" (in a movie)
and now he added the word Ra (bad). Maybe he didn't want to repeat himself ( too boring). Anyhow now we have the Star of David in blue color which says in lines what the blue letters of the slogan say in words- and then we have in black an addition that contradicts the slogan :if we live in a bad movie life is not worth.

To the slogan Long Live Israel (= Am Israel Hai) the artist added in red a question mark and the meaning of the slogan changed so drastically that it's actually got the opposite meaning: hey, we're dying here!
