After the famous performance of “Pussy Riot” in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, the RuNet was filled with discussions on the topic of what would have happened if the notorious creative team had performed not here, but, say, in a Muslim country or in Israel. I can’t say anything for the countries of Islam, but in Israel there are artists working in the genre of artistic provocation.
One of them is Natalie Cohen Waksberg, who is sometimes called “the most hated woman in Israel.” However, we note that she still reads her monologues not in the Knesset, and not at the Western Wall, but on stage. Here is an example of her sketch "How would you manage without the Holocaust", which was first shown at the Jaffa festival in 2010. I apologize in advance for any foul language or content that some may find offensive, but this is just art:
Hello! I am a Catastrophe! Catastrophe. The best thing that happened to someone? - With you! Thanks to me, you have (poo!)... - State! Thanks to me and above all thanks to me, you have (poo-poo!) - Army-ya! No one has done as much for your success as who? - Like me!!! Thanks to whom!? Who should we congratulate?! Who deserves applause?.... I think that after all these years, I deserve applause... (Exits) (Comes back) Don't I deserve it? Do you think I don't deserve it? I even deserve thunderous applause. How could you justify the 67th without me? And the 48th year without me? Thanks to whom were you able to create a ghetto for 3 million people, without the superpowers uniting and bombing you to your mother and mother!? Thanks to whom can you put tops in babies’ p—s and claim that this is self-defense!? And no one will think that you are just perverts! Do you think you can do without me? Has Gollem suddenly rebelled against his creator? Don't forget what you've learned!!!! The older you get, the shorter your memory becomes. Obligated for life! I am your mother! From this shit they fell into Palestine! From these breasts you suck! Thanks to me, you can freely create a nuclear bomb, and for this alone I deserve thunderous applause! ... I will be satisfied with applause. I'll be satisfied... (Returns) Do I have the face of someone who can be used? Did you think that in the years during which I turned the concrete that you heaped on me into doves of peace, I would not receive a single clap?!!!! It seems to me that you are mistaken. I'm not your guest worker. I'm not a kind and sweet fairy! What are you doing without me?! - Nothing! Empty place! It's only thanks to me that you are here! Thanks to the IDF??? Ha! They made me laugh! Who supplied the IDF with his manpower! Hot, hot, straight from the oven! Without me, the entire “People's Front for Trotskyism” of three members would have been mowed down by the IDF without weapons! "Moral army"?!! Thanks to whom?!!! Who has to engage in prostitution for the world to perceive the IDF as a “moral army” and I don’t get a single pat for it? I have long been accustomed to the role of b—di. But even the idiots in the IDF don’t work for free!!!! You know what? I don’t give a shit about you and your applause. Have you ever seen the real Holocaust? From this day on there are no Jewish people! He came and went! I deny you! Thank you! You don't exist and you never existed. Punishment. Maybe this will remind you from whom you learned to use collective punishment.... (Leaves) (Coming back) Hello pa-les-tin-tsy! I... Disaster! Catastrophe! Thanks to me, you had the Nakba. So, thanks to me, you may have (poo) - a state! And thanks to me you will have (poo-poo) - ar-mi-ya!... Thanks to whom? – Whom should we congratulate? Who deserves applause?
