Snippet:
Forget “Let’s go fly a kite” from Mary Poppins. The song from Disney’s movie sends spirits soaring, but in Israel, post-October 7, 2023, kites are not symbols of innocent childhood fun. They have transformed from symbols of freedom into weapons of physical and psychological warfare. It’s evil, but brilliant.
