An initiative by Jerusalem's Mayor Nir Barkat intends to take advantage of the wide coverage to unleash a public relations barrage and to present to them "Jerusalem's other side."

According to the plan, journalists will be taken on tours around Jerusalem and will visit the main historical sites, such as City of David and the Western Wall Tunnel.

They will also be taken to an Israel Museum's exhibition about King Herod and to the Ice City, where they will see a custom built ice sculptor in Obama's image.

Emphasis mine.

how appropriate, considering his cold dark heart.

[TChad]

Loop sound effect:

"I'm melting! Melting!"

[Ezekiel]

An idol of ice for the media to adore. Even the gods of metal, wood, and stone have more staying power.

[Vendome]

Sohhh, it’ll be black ice????

[MHGinTN]

No, yellow. Thousands of Israelis have donated to it dontchaknow.

[Secret Agent Man]

will it tell people to worship it?

[Ezekiel]

I have a bad feeling about this trip.

You mean like...

Israelis invite Obama to speak at Rabin Square?

A group of 35 sculptors, lighting technicians, designers and builders are expected to arrive from China in February and set up the ice exhibition within a month.

[onyx]

Imported Chinese are doing the sculpting...LOL.

[Ezekiel]

I didn't see a reference to Chinese involvement in this Obama idol, only that the Chinese were brought in initially to set up "Ice City" in February of 2012.

The Obama idol is "custom built" so I would think (but ya never know) that it is something crafted especially for this occasion, not that it has been there all along. I sure wouldn't be surprised, though!

'Ice City' to be built in Jerusalem

[AZLiberty]

In some ways, an Al Gore ice sculpture would be even more appropriate.

[onyx]

Oh dang, you're right. It's late and I skipped right past the 2012 !
I was so happy until right now....LOL.

[Ezekiel]

There’s that graphic that floats around FR.... the one with AlGore blowing his hot air (or maybe it is fire). AlGore should be ‘shopped breathing on the Obama ice idol, lol.

[Ezekiel]

The confusion is understandable. Over the past several years, how many weirdsh*t-o-meters have been busted beyond repair, thanks to Obama?

There is seemingly no end to the madness and delusions. What next, a "miracle" of water flowing from the rock (ice)?
