YM: the T-shirt is terrible. In their position I would put my efforts into building the land and trying to make peace/friendships with my immediate arab neighbours. Whether this is possible, I don't know. Is it?
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.

The message is based on stupidity; the stupidity of thinking our legitimate claims can be made through the vehicles of sarcasm and self-deprecation.
It can only backfire. I can imagine people right now looking at this shirt, saying, "If you say so, who am I to disagree?"
An idea for a better shirt? Start with this: "THE JEWS = THE INDIGENOUS PALESTINIAN NATION". Could do with refinement, of course, but that's the gist.
aparatchik,
No, it isn't. The Arabs want everything we have.
