Who Decides What Goes on Jerusalem’s Lampposts?
Episode 4962
Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description
Jerusalem’s lampposts are plastered with posters of the Lubavitcher Rebbe captioned “King Messiah” — a saturation campaign that’s sparked a secular citizen coalition fighting back. But what does Israeli law actually say? We break down the Municipalities Ordinance, the enforcement gap, and the legal and ethical dilemmas of citizen-led removal. From fines of 5,000 shekels per poster to the paradox of damaging public property to remove illegal material, this episode explores who really controls public space in a divided city.
