‘This video by Israeli Queers Against the Occupation features a cover of the Aerosmith song “Pink” playing over jarring images of Israel’s violence against Palestinians.
It is a spoof and remix of the official 2016 Tel Aviv Pride promotional video.
It takes on pinkwashing, Israel’s propaganda strategy of trying to market itself as LGBTQ friendly, that will reach its annual peak this Friday with the government-sponsored pride parade in Tel Aviv.
The message from the spoof is clear: “you can’t wash away the occupation.”’
