The Jewish-Arab Peace Song (w/ English subtitles)
Uploaded by: shalom2salam
Video Description:
UPDATE: At a time when Gaza civilians, including women and children, are being slaughtered by the hundreds (at least 551 Palestinians have been killed, and some 2,790 others are reported wounded -- most of whom are civilians) it is not time to sing about peace. It is time to act, productively, to stop this barbarism and insanity. Israel is now raining death on Gaza using chemical weapons - napalm-like white phosphorous shells (see reliable article here:
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/middle_east/article5447590.ece)
Demand from your leaders immediate international intervention to stop the massacres. Demand that the U.N. General Assembly establish an International Criminal Tribunal for Israel under Article 22 of the UN Charter. Details on how to draft the demand and how to send it to the President of the UN General Assembly are here:

Sung in both Hebrew and Arabic, this Middle Eastern, Sepharadic-style, jazzy and inspiring song challenges us to overcome decades of hatred and violence, and replace them with mutual respect, and an appreciation of the human and civil rights of both people.
This song is dedicated to the thousands of ordinary people around the world, including many Jews, who worked together to break the Israeli siege on Gaza in August 08 by sailing two small wooden boats from Cyprus to Gaza and bringing medical supplies, baby food, and other necessities. Since that first siege-busting voyage, the Free Gaza movement has succcessfully sent to Gaza four additional boats, and are planning on sending many more. They have shown that the concerted efforts of ordinary civilians working together in the name of justice can confront and successfully challenge Israel's brutal policies.

In this song, Jewish-Israeli and Palestinian singers and musicians joined together to perform the Hebrew-Arabic song "Hevenu Shalom Aleinu" (We Brought Peace Upon Us) - "Ma Ana Ajmal Min Salam" (There is Nothing More Beautiful Than Peace).
The song, which later became the anthem of Peace Child Israel, is performed by the following singers (in order of appearance):
Jewish-Israeli -
Leah Shabat
Shlomo Gronich
Zehavah Ben
Eli Luzon
Palestinian -
Sahmir Shukri
Nivine Jaabri
Elias Julianos
Lubna Salame
To paraphrase JFK, ask not what the leaders can do to end violence and occupation, but what you can do for Israeli-Palestinian peace. Here are some suggestions: 1) Simply send this link to your mailing lists to inspire people to act as peacemakers; 2) donate whatever you can to humanitarian initiatives, such as Break the Gaza Siege (www.freegaza.org) which is in urgent need of donations; and 3) plan a trip to Israel and the Palestinian territories to see for yourself. There are several organizations which can help you with such a trip. In any event, don't remain silent as Silence is complicity.

Have hope, Dandibay, as I'm sure peace can be achieved with the proper ambition. Let us leave the past behind us and start anew with our brothers in humanity. :)
But we need not fuel the flames through anti-semetic hate speech, but opposition of apartheid (A.K.A. Israel's government) which is exactly the message this video is trying to get across.
There is indeed a HUGE difference between the morals of Judaism and inhumanity of Zionism. Have a little hope for the future, and spread the virtue of peace wherever it is needed.
