[calciumkid85]

if you want to ask me : which side am i on? i can't tell.I honestly respect both side and i always have a dream for peace in palestine-israel land..

But,if you want me to take a side,it's clear : israel. The lesser of two evils is not arabs. come'on..israel :5 million arabs : over 500 million. And KING DAVID rule!

[xkoonzix]

This song is about peace in the Middle East, idiots like you have to make it political. How many innocent children did Israel kill in Beirut? In Gaza? I was in Beirut when Israel bombed it, they bombed a residential neighborhood with apartment buildings. I was there I saw for my own eyes. They killed innocent people.

[oldskoolozzy]

@xkoonzix = idiot. Absolute moron, you don't know anything about politics so shut the fuck up.

[xkoonzix]

Fuck you and your politics. Israel is a terrorist state.

[2500xxxx]

@xkoonzix

That's correct.

[japonessza]

[brandnathan]

if you can't beat them, box them!

[Ryuuko94]

NOOB SONG.... BAD!!!!

[Pathrissia]

-balkan- beat box? dont get it..where they from?

[ckyfan969696]

I think they're primarily hebrews, but as such, most isrealis are from all over the world. So I would expect they have a lot of slavic background.

[Bakuninite]

Tamer Yosef has Yemenite background. Like many Israeli Jews (Sephardic and Mihrazic), his grandparents spoke Arabic.

Its amazing, when you look into the history of the two peoples, how intertwined the Jews and Arabs are. Its very sad that, despite centuries of peace, they are currently fighting.

All we can do is hope for peace and oppose the radical shit-disturbers on all sides (The Christian Zionists are particularly frightening. Anti-Semitic Zionists with tons of money...).

[ckyfan969696]

I'm a 16 year old Ashkenazi Messianic Jew (sorry if that makes you not like me), I left my congregation years ago because they were mostly Zionists and Arab haters. I read scripture on my own time and try to make my own understanding of it, etc.

[Bakuninite]

i dont dislike people for having religious beliefs. I only get really edgy when people mix those beliefs with politics. Its good that you left the congregation because it was hateful.

You can believe whatever you want and its fine by me. I only dislike the fundamentalists (of all religions) who think everyone should believe as they do.

[trinket01]

I'm Messianic and my congregation has Persians, Egyptians, Indians, Pakistanis, Americans, Hispanics, all together, one in Yeshua, we support Israel but also help Palestinian people living in poverty. Arabs are our brothers and sisters, whether they are Muslim or not. I just hate Islamic terrorism, hope you can find Messianic family that you can share again with. Shalom :)

[ckyfan969696]

I hate all terrorism, like that carried out by mossad, the cia, the corporate media. The temple isn't standing, we have no right to be there. In supporting israel, you are supporting the destruction of homes. In supporting israel, you are supporting the cause of a lot of so called terrorism.

[trinket01]

yeah, but do u also hate Islamic terrorism? All types of terrorism suck, but where do u suggest that the Jews that were expelled from Arab lands go to? We've been expelled from just about every country world wide, maybe this is G-d's way of being true to His promise that after exile He'd bring us back. I would love for all of us, Arabs, Jews, Muslims, Christians to live happily ever after but the governments won't let us.

[nsam]

I actually support Jews migrating to Palestine pre-1948 because every immigrant deserves freedom from presecution. I always supported Jews, Muslims and Christians living in Palestine and believe a one-state solution can work. But I doubt it will happen. Anyway, Jews who were expelled from Arab lands should definitely go to Israel. But the problem with Israeli terrorism relates to the actions taken to create a Greater Israel, illegal settlement building, and collective punishment in Gaza.

[Tamar16]

i think exacly the same way like you, but about the Gaza thing, no way. First- Gaza got a collective punishment because people cooperate with the terrorists, so we'll sit at home and do nothing while they're bombing at us for 8 years?!

[xkoonzix]

I think tearing down their homes, restricting medical,food and water supplies from getting in and killing children because they throw stones at tanks is punishment enough.

[RovingRabbit]

COME EVERYBODY JUMP!!!

Brilliant!!!

[Bakuninite]

Maybe if we could get all the Israelis and Palestinians to come to Canada and live as equals here, and populate the "holy" land with Buddhists, things would be better?

We've got tonnes of space, and with climate shift, we are the next California.

*note* please dont treat this as a serious comment. Internet sarcasm is tricky in that way.

[baselabbas]

this concert was probably held on top of the ruins of a grave full of Palestinian bodies...or a demolished Palestinian house. They should all be ashamed of israel...a country based and formed on colonial and Nazi mentalities...how delusional can one be ?

[eyelense]

cologne is in germany... now think again about what you wrote and stop hating!!

[adrianpop1]

YOU ARE TOTALY RIGHT !!!

[AcePilot101]

Israel reminds me of Mexico..lol

I like Mexico.

Jews and Arabs alike, when someone shoots,

ya shoot back, right?

Stop hiding behind grandma's aprons. peace!!

[baselabbas]

yet all of them probably served in the Israeli army and shot at Palestinian kids.

Liberal Zionism = Bullshit

[Bakuninite]

If they did they were forced in to it, who do you blame, the system, or the people the system swallows and enslaves? There will be no peace untill there is no nationalism. All nationalism = bullshit.

[trinket01]

palestinian kids brainwashed to kill and kill themselves for "allah" Their death is the fault of the sick imams teaching MURDER instead of LIFE, HOPE, PEACE, LOVE !!

[Bakuninite]

Yes, because every Palestinian is an Islamic Fundamentalist... Its easy to have life, hope, peace and love when you have a secure future and economic/political freedom, it is hard to have these when you live in an open air prison where tanks are shooting at you because you are in the wrong place, yet every Palestinian Ive met seems to cling to life, hope, peace and love. Peace will only come following equality and justice.

[Bakuninite]

Politics aside, it is good music that promotes peace between these people. How this peace is achieved is a matter of debate, but the music remains good.

[maurichef]

i like your sentiment,but do you think israelis are secure?study the history firt.how many israelis have you met?you seem rational but if you look at comments on any israeli/jewish youtube it's shocking how much hatred is spouted towards us.and this site is just a good band who has said'PEACE in the middle east'!!!stop the palestinian attacks on israel if you don't want tanks there!!!shalom/salaam

[Bakuninite]

It goes both ways, look at all the attacks on Arabs/Muslims on youtube. Id argue that alot of these comments come from racist white Americans who believe in ZOG and all that bollocks.

It also goes both ways in that you must stop the occupation if you want to stop the suicide bombs. Being as the occupation comes from a centralized group, and not a myriad of ragtag militias, it is much easier for Israel to stop the occupation than "the palestinians" to stop the attacks.

[Bakuninite]

And no, I have not met an Israeli, but have several Palestinian friends. If I had things my way, I would have a Palestinian neighbor on one side and an Israeli on the other.

I truly believe that the only true solution is the one-state solution. Not just to this conflict, but to all conflicts. Nationalism is the poison which promotes violence on both sides, but you do have to take into account the disparity of privilege when looking at this conflict.

[imbannaj]

if israelis arent secure, then what can i tell you about the palestinians? israelis are 1000 times more secure than the palestinians, go over there and see for yourself. dont try to twist reality. k? thx.

[isrsal]

Why is it that whenever peace is the subject, Palestinians prefer to talk about the wrongs of Israel instead of actually making peace?? You guys have had so many opportunities to stop the madness, but no, the land is more important for you than life and peace and you prefer to cry how Israel is wrong than actually making peace. You probably don't speak Hebrew, but this song is just about people like you.

[Bakuninite]

What are the lyrics in english, by the way?

As for your comment, there are people who will make peace, and general shit-disturbers on both sides. Both sides tend to be hotheads as well.

Make a new law so that anybody who wants to smoke has to buy cigarettes from the other side. There will be peace in a week.

[nsam]

No, land is more important for Israel, that's why today they keep invading and building settlements. The Palestinians are waiting for the madness to stop, but every time peace talks arise - Israel backs out on its promises to remove checkpoints and settlements. They want peace is badly as anyone because their wounds are fresh.

[isrsal]

I won't go into useless arguments about facts, but I have seen dozens of peace demonstrations in Israel including the 1995 with 400,000 people. How many Palestinian peace demonstrations did you hear of?

[isrsal]

I won't go into useless factual arguments with you. One thing I could say, I have seen and participated in dozens of peace demonstrations in Israel including the 400,000 people peace demonstration of Nov. 1995. How many such demonstrations of Palestinians did you hear of?

[nsam]

Look, they're not useless. I'm just trying to make you understand that peace is wanted on both sides. And you are misinformed - there are more frequent Palestinian demonstrations (which are peaceful) than Israeli, but most are shortlived because the IDF uses tear gas to disburse the crowd. In 2008 alone, there have been many demonstrations which include foreign guests, especially by the West Bank barrier. Apart from B'tselem and other aid groups, I dont see Israelis protesting for peace.

[isrsal]

The difference between the Israeli demonstrations and the Palestinian ones is that the Israelis demonstrate against their own government whereas the Palestinian demonstrations are always against Israel.

Also, Israel has elected a government that withdrew from Gaza and Jericho, while the Palestinians elected a Hamas government that sent suicide bombers. There are always extremest, but the question is what does the majority wants.

[nsam]

I think it sends a major message when Palestinians and Israelis BOTH protest against the Israeli government. Very clear. Israelis aren't the aggressors - it's the government, Israeli settlers, Palestinian extremists, and the IDF. Hamas has always been useless and unproductive, but they won the "majority" because the rest of the world simply outcasted Palestinians. The rights of Gazans are rarely regarded.. when they receive no genuine support, they vote Hamas, which is sad.

[nsam]

Trinket01 - that was a very sick comment you made. Rabbis in Israel are also sick and brainwashed and call for further invasion and destruction of Palestinians... did you forget about that? It doesn't surprise me that most readers rated your comment high - now i see the hypocrisy in your message of "life, hope, peace, etc." Please, take your own advice as well as the rest of you viewers!

[trinket01]

How is it hypocrisy for me to TELL THE TRUTH that in Palestinian TV they teach children to be martyrs for Allah? I don't hate those children, I hate the sick imams that lie to them and tell them to kill themselves, so you're the hypocrite if you don't feel sorry for those children who deserve to have dreams. I know Israel is no saint, I don't agree 100% with them but we have a right to exist too. My MUSLIM Palestinian friend told me it's true about terrorist kid tv programs.

[keren1122]

no they dident!

[andriesu]

u talking like stupid man who was growing up in hate and u are from these peaple who hate others

[MacTelAviv]

Let me rephrase your msg!

"yet all of them probably served in the Israeli army and shot at Palestinian terrorist"

now it's much better!

[Badrani]

why balkan, do they even know what balkan is? or even where is?

ps. serbia lives on

[hammadeus]

Of course hey know where the Balkans are, they are referring to their musical influences. Nationalism causes wars. Peace rocks!

[Exit2DaCore]

grooooooooooooooovvvvvvvvvvvvy­

[penttti]

tamahan on taysin perZeesta

[SlKE]

Balkan? I'm from the Balkans, it's nowhere near the middle east. It's in south-eastern europe.

[eyelense]

they call themselves balkan beat box, cause their influences also come from south-eastern europe. but they are from israel and some are living in new york. they explain it all in the long version of the video.

[meldorhan]
