This demonstrates that the Gustativ was a hugh mistake. With the existence of a terrorist organization such as Hamas, the Palestinians are not deserving of a state. You guys are pathetic. Israel belongs to the Jews!! Get over it!

This demonstrates that the gustativ was a hugh mistake. If Hamas was not such a terrorist organization, perhaps a 2 state solution would have been a solution. As things currently stands, the Palestinians are not deserving of their own states. Read the Bible, Israel belongs to the Jews!

Austin is a very antisemitic city. I lived there for years. More than anywhere else in Texas. I've been all over Texas and rarely heard anyone mention Jews other than say "Jew you down". But in "liberal" Austin I heard it regularly about Zionist conspacies and other antisemitic nonsense. Most of the people there are on drugs.

@IBeatUpThugs

Standing up against Israel is not anti-Semitic, and if you had any heart in you, you would be on the side of the Palestinians, actually the situation in Gaza at the moment is very much like the situation was in Warsaw during the early 40's. It's not that hard to see and anyone who supports what Israel does supports GENOCIDE. it's that simple, and the comment you made about people in Austin taking drugs is just complete bullcrap.

@Daverandom I'm sorry you feel that way. I know you are looking for an underdog, a wrong to right and all that, to prove to everyone how tolerant and anti-racist you are. But you happen to have stumbled into some bullshit. Palestinians have the highest population growth on earth, how is that genocide? Comparing the genuine undeserved plight of Jews, to one of a people who openly call for genocide of Jews and blow themselves up on schoolbuses is cruel and heartless. Your arguments are troubling.

@IBeatUpThugs I've lived in Austin my entire life, I've never heard anyone mention anything antisemitic.

liebermann is a fascist. netanyahu is full of shit. they both use nazi terminology to justify their actions. turning point is near. people are either keep not giving a crap or finally realize what has been going on in the last 50 years. the song pretty much sums it up. if taking sides and stating the obvious means that im anti-Semite then so be it.

obama is not gonna solve shit. he is full of crap, just like W. rovics kicks ass! palestine-dying to live...

[JeanySullivan]

I love this song and the protesters. And you for posting it. :-D

Good for Austin!

It's heartening to see that some people in this country take the time to make themselves aware of the reality of the current Palestinian apartheid, regardless of the US media's agenda: 

4 million Palestinian refugees driven from their own homes, treated as second class citizens, fenced in by an illegal wall, unable to receive even basic clean water or medicine...3,000 people dead in the past few weeks alone and 5,000 more wounded without access to medical care...
