PALESTINIAN HIP-HOP GROUP COMPARING ISRAELIS TO NAZIS PERFORMS FOR OREGON PUBLIC HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
Should a Palestinian Hip-Hop group perform at a public school? Why or why not?
The band, DAM, which means blood, sing “Min Irhabi” or “Who’s a Terrorist?”
Chorus: Who’s a terrorist? I’m a terrorist? How am I a terrorist while I live in my country Who’s a terrorist? You’re a terrorist! You’re swallowing me while I live in my country Killing me like you killed my ancestors […] Democracy? I swear you’re Nazis With all the times you raped the Arab spirit It got pregnant and birthed a boy called the suicide bomber And here you are calling us terrorists
A British source, Mail Online, reports that the Qatar Foundation has links to the terrorist group Hamas.
It should be noted the members of DAM are Arab citizens of Israel who identify themselves as Palestinian. Their opinion of the city where they were raised – Lod, next to Ben-Gurion International Airport – is that it’s occupied Palestinian territory, not Israel. Or, in other words: there is no place in their world view for Jews to have their national homeland.
