Shams - Ahlan Ezzayak
The singer is Kuwaiti, and the Kuwaitis, for a few decades, have been the people in the Middle East most supportive of America and American actions. The fact that this video comes from a Kuwaitia says something. Third, the recording company Rotana, how now dropped Shams. It is owned by Saudi Prince Waleed bin Talal and it is felt by some that the singer's anti-American feelings might have been behind it. Odd then, that she is later signed by a company with American backing.

Also important from the video is her blatant linking of the war in Iraq and the Palestinian struggle. Notice her walking into the sunset with a well known symbol of Palestinian resistance, the cartoon character Handalah created by Naji al-Ali. As she walks into the sunset hand in hand with Handalah she is wearing a wedding dress, clearly wedding the concept of Iraqi and Palestinian resistance to American, and hence Israeli, aggression.

  • Excuse me?! Haha! That is hilarious! What tanks do Palestinians have? That one is a classic. If you are speaking of the six day war in 1967, the Israelis still invaded Palestinian towns, massacred people, and built settlements on top of demolished Palestinian homes! Do you They offered peace to the Arabs?! Do you think those thousands of Palestinians willingly gave up their homes and chose the alternative of refugee camps?? You are delusional!

  • Good Job Shams. Thanks for posting.
