Sent to me by EV, found at this site, produced by Sacha Baron Cohen's bother, Erran, but I can't figure out why they are spray-painting Jesus' name in Hebrew: ישוע
Apparently the real reason is that they wanted it to say "yeshuah", but the person they delegated this to didn't know how to spell it, and googled it or something, and came up with the J4J spelling. It's unfortunate.
American born, my wife and I moved to Israel in 1970. We have lived at Shiloh together with our family since 1981. I was in the Betar youth movement in the US and UK. I have worked as a political aide to Members of Knesset and a Minister during 1981-1994, lectured at the Academy for National Studies 1977-1994, was director of Israel's Media Watch 1995-2000 and currently, I work at the Menachem Begin Heritage Center in Jerusalem. I was a guest media columnist on media affairs for The Jerusalem Post, op-ed contributor to various journals and for six years had a weekly media show on Arutz 7 radio. I serve as an unofficial spokesperson for the Jewish Communities in Judea & Samaria.

At a guess - a common Peurto Rican name is Jesus (hay-soos). You see that on the walls in those neighborhoods sometimes.
Cute vid.
