Two things to note here -

1. The concept of "blackface" does not exist in Israel.

2. Looking at the picture, it was taken at the Dead Sea - where people go to put black, mineral rich mud all over their body (faces include). So this wasn't even someone pretending to be black, it was just someone putting mud on his face, taking a picture, than making a lame (private?) joke when uploading to Facebook.

Not only a non-HN story, but also just a non-story.
