Hayim Shtayer sent me this Nape Star of David Tattoo picture along with another picture of a big sign with the words: Strong Home Front makes You Win the War. In Hebrew the same word (OREF) is used for Nape and for Home Front. The common denominator is pride, which seems to return to the heart of the Israelis as a result of the Gaza War consequences.

Recently, I got a few dozens well-selected images of Theodore Herzl from Graphic designer Hayim Shtayer who collects such images for many years, I thought it could be a magnetic center for many other Theodore Herzl enthusiasts, so I opened a group in Flickr dedicated to Theodore Herzl items - see:

The above photo is an invitation (from Hayim Shtayer’s collection) to an Independence Party on 2003. Caption under the blue (what else?) Magen David is: Even Herzl didn’t believe.

An Israeli flag appears on a bag promoting the selling of dresses. I didn't see actually any doll walking in the street with this kind of gadget, but it seems that it won't be long till each Israeli patriot will have at least one of these bags (and then the Arabs will make bags with their own flags:)

Hayim Shtayer went in November 1995 to Kikar Malchei Yisrael in Tel Aviv, the place where Yitzhak Rabin was murdered, and documented the spontaneous reactions of the Israeli public as they were written on the walls there. In the picture above we see a white Magen David below the caption: "you were born for peace".

Hayim Shtayer took this Photo of an old wagon with white six-pointed Stars at the entrance to Kibbutz Ein Harod. I asked Anat from Beit Shturman what are these stars doing there, and she checked it out:
The wagon had been used for cultivation of fields in Kibbutz Ein Harod and it was painted about 15 years ago by a volunteer from Australia named Richard, who married a girl who was born in that Kibbutz, and now they both live in Australia. May be Richard tried to paint the Australian flag stars which are five pointed, but eventually the stars came out six-pointed like the Israeli Star of David.
