This pro-Israel agit-prop video, “Only Israel,” by Yedida Freilich (lyrics by Gabby and Yuval Freilich), has gotten more than 300,000 views on YouTube in about a week:
What do you think of the song’s message: “Only Israel has no right to defend itself / Because the world cares nothing about Jewish blood”? Is this kind of expression helpful in promoting Israeli-Palestinian reconciliation? Or is that a naïve notion, because forces in the Arab and Islamic world only want to destroy the Jews and Israel? Does this music video rally people to Israel’s cause? — Mordecai Specktor
