Eretz Israel is our unforgettable historic homeland...The Jews who will it shall achieve their State...And whatever we attempt there for our own benefit will redound mightily and beneficially to the good of all mankind. (Theodor Herzl, DerJudenstaat, 1896)

We offer peace and amity to all the neighbouring states and their peoples, and invite them to cooperate with the independent Jewish nation for the common good of all. The State of Israel is ready to contribute its full share to the peaceful progress and development of the Middle East.
(From Proclamation of the State of Israel, 5 Iyar 5708; 14 May 1948)

With a liberal democratic political system operating under the rule of law, a flourishing market economy producing technological innovation to the benefit of the wider world, and a population as educated and cultured as anywhere in Europe or North America, Israel is a normal Western country with a right to be treated as such in the community of nations.... For the global jihad, Israel may be the first objective. But it will not be the last. (Friends of Israel Initiative)

Sydney BDS Fanatics Caterwaul Their Hate In "Freedom Carols For Palestine" (videos)

This first video may be said to set the "gold standard" of all renditions of anti-Israel lyrics sung to the tune of Beethoven's "Ode To Joy". It is so ridiculous, a veritable pastiche, that it's sure to raise a chuckle. I believe all the voices belong to disrupters of the IPO performance at the Proms earlier this year.


I don't like the soaring soprano's sentiments, but I love her voice, and indeed find all the voices pleasant and in harmony.

I cannot say the same for the grating unmusical voices of this unattractive mob of Israel-haters calling themselves the Coalition for Palestine who held their "Freedom Carols For Palestine"  outside Max Brenner and Dezire Cosmetics in Sydney today, to mark the so-called International Day of Solidarity With The Palestinian People.  It begins with the same lyrics as above. Just listen to the difference!  And there are more repellent distortions of well-known carols.

(Hat tip for both these videos below: the indomitable Shirlee)

  1. HOW DARE THEY!

    First they rape "Ode to Joy", then, if they have their way, such western art will be verboten! the only music that Hamas and their "brotherhood" would allow is bomb explosions I think...

    Beethoven would turn in his grave!

  3. I love the way they were forbidden to "sing" at the second location - they must be old hard leftists, I should think.

  4. The 'person' in action, wearing the red shirt, I heard spewing her venom at the Marrickville Council meetings. I can't find a video of her hate-filled performances

  5. I wonder whether they spread the canard that Jesus was a Palestinian - more and more Israel haters are doing so.

  6. He would have been a Canaanite surely?

    Though most paintings depict him as having fair skin and hair

  7. Is it something in the water? Or are they members of the People Who Were Dropped On Their Heads As Children?

  8. I also wonder whether they would ever normally "sing" a carol.

  10. Most of the old codgers aren't singing, some look like corpses wheeled out to make up numbers. They must be tone deaf to let that woman be the soloist - if she was a busker people would pay her to shut her trap ROFL

  11. I don't think her tones would ever be mistaken for Joan Sutherland's, Miranda!

  13. Those carol singers are right. Palestine WILL soon be free. Of Christians. The population of Christians in Bethlehem has dropped from 90% before Oslo to less than 25% today. Nablus and Tulkaram have seen similar decline. By contrast, Israel's Christian population has grown by 25% in the same time frame. Why don't they sing about THAT?
