Last year I made a series of posters called Real Liberals Love Israel.

Here's a worthy addition to that series.

Photo courtesy of the IDF.

One of the Facebook comments on the photo:
Aharon Cohen Mohliver: Just to clarify to all the skeptics: this picture was taken during gay pride in israel. It's not "just two men holding hands" and it is absolutely reflective of how the Israeli army treats gays. I'm gay. I served in the IDF as an openly gay soldier in combat units. This is a clear example that sexual orientation has nothing to do with how well one can perform any task, including serving in the field with other (straight) men.
UPDATE: YNet has an article about this photo:
The Foreign Ministry, as well as Israeli missions worldwide, has been known to use the IDF's acceptance of gay soldiers into its ranks as a symbol for Israel's progressive nature; but this is the first time the military has publically embraced the gay community on one of its social media platforms.

The IDF's Facebook initiative struck a chord: Within hours of posting the photo online, it garnered 4,621 "Shares" and over 6,500 "Likes," as well as hundreds of supportive comments.

I unfortunately had to make this poster a bit taller and skinnier than the others; I prefer to keep things in proportion but I couldn't do that with this wonderful photo.

UPDATE: A good idea from G:

An idea I've been kicking around:

My main problem is coming up with appropriate photos. How best to illustrate freedom of the press, or of assembly, or a top-notch justice system? (Diversity is a bit easier.) I want this one to be a positive campaign.  

By the way, the New York Jewish Voice published 13 of my posters in their current edition (they apologized to me for not putting my URL anywhere on the page...)
