Comrades...I can't...I just can't. When I heard that they gave trump a "golden pager" I assumed it was some kind of statement that they had a direct 1:1 line of communication or some shit. My jaw hit the fucking floor when my coworker pulled the image up. What disgusts me so much about it is there's actually real artistic thought and visual symbolism behind this "art" representing one of the most grotesque pieces of state sponsored terrorism in recent memory. The Tree trunk clearly represents not only the explosion of the pagers Mossad used but also, along with the pager at the center (the gold being an on the nose representation of Trump) is a twisted symbol of the seed they have planted together for what is to come in the region.

This is straight up comic book, captain planet, final fantasy insanity villain level shit. I fucking can't.

Someone suggested it's cedar wood, a reference to the flag of Lebanon.

Oh God that tracks. Seriously absolutely demonic shit.

This is grim. I assume that wood is from the Lebanese cedar tree that is on their flag.

How much highly concentrated explosive can you fit in this section of log? Would it be enough to kill everyone inside of an oval-shaped room?
