If you’ve ever thought that the complexities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict reminded you a lot of a Beyoncé song, liberal Middle East lobbying group J Street has the internet campaign for you!
J Street’s new posters tell Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, affectionately known as “Bibi,” “If you like it then you should put a border on it.”
Beyoncé’s iconic leotard has been re-imagined with a map of Israel, and a sassy Bibi stands front and center with some fierce hip-pop action.
The “Put a border on it” official Twitter feed is equally confusing, tweeting things like this:
♫ Roll out the partition plan, please ♫ http://t.co/NmGMHTKQFx #Bibyonce #BorderOnIt

And this:
♫ Don’t play shocked when Abbas goes to the UN for it. ♫
♫ If you like it then you should put a #BorderOnIt http://t.co/NmGMHTKQFx ♫— Put a border on it (@BorderOnIt) September 29, 2014
…and this:
The Middle East shouldn’t wake up like this. Tell @IsraeliPM if you like it you should put a #BorderOnIt borderon.it pic.twitter.com/lp6obvTkgI

Since some millennials who listen to Beyoncé and a border fence will do wonders for the Middle East, one can hopefully look forward to the U.N. Security Council campaign around “Run the World” and a Palestinian-statehood-themed “Say My Name.”
