(IsraelNN.com) A new Dutch-PLO business venture launched Sunday will enable Internet users to place messages on the Separation Fence for 30 euros ($43.20) each.  The messages will be spray painted on the wall by approximately a dozen Arab youth hired for the purpose by a team of advertisers from the Netherlands.

The Dutch creators of SendAMessage say that any message in English or Dutch may be put up by their graffiti sprayers, as long as it's not "offensive."  In fact, payment is in advance, and anyone who defames the PLO or its ideology will not receive a refund.  As part of the service, the vandals, some in Abu Dis and some in Ramallah, will take digital pictures of their handiwork for the client.

One of the PLO partners in the project stated that while he thought the cost of the spray painting was exorbitant, the Dutch partners claimed it would make the vandalism seem to be elite and precious.
