Vote ‘P’ for Pirates
Ohad Shem Tov (L) and Noam Kuzar at the headquarters of the Israeli “Pirate party,” one of 34 lists competing in the upcoming Israeli national elections.
The Swedish Piratpartiet, founded on 1 January 2006, was the first pirate party. The party’s name was derived from Piratbyrån, an organization opposed to intellectual property.
In other words, it’s a party based on stealing stuff.
Oh, if only all the other parties running for the Knesset were this honest.
