Saar Belilo, a resident of Tel Aviv , published yesterday (Monday) a shocking post on his Facebook page , which said that six months ago went between the doors in the building in which he lived , took mezuzhas out of their - and put in place pig pictures .
The post won dozens of comments - most of them angry.
Post wrote: "Six months ago I printed pictures, cut, rolled, I went through all the doorposts of my building and opened every Mezuzah ... and replaced by a rolled paper with a cute picture. I closed nicely and went back to sleep. Since then I follow the results. In which house cancer was discovered, which apartment are sitting shiva, where the lottery was won, and much more. Experiment is not over, but at night I sleep much better since then. "
TechSlut Site, which published the post did not get lazy and thoroughly checked things out. Reporter Ilana Brodo discovered that in fact the man did nothing. Reporter turned to Saar, who answered: "No. The fact is - I did it as a troll to prove how volatile religion is and what levels of hatred and threats that can lead to normative people."
Later at night Saar reset the status on facebook, and added: "Given the myriad diverse responses, let me repeat the outset that the story is a fabrication, no Mezuzah was harmed, do not worry, as I said to Ilana Brodo."
When asked if the purpose of advertising was complete, he says : "Yes . Many responses this way and show once again how the subject of religion in Israel is sensitive, holy cow, taboo. I believe that the religious and especially orthodox threaten the character of Israel as a democratic state. We need to shake the people occasionally."
Ilana added in the article: "For me, there is no doubt that this is too extreme, too violent and disrespectful to believers in religion. Nevertheless, he achieved what he tried to accomplish - enough people fell into the trap , believed the story , and went to condemn violence more or less of the move that really happened."
