Dialogue is great and its exactly the point of the article. Sorry you were so disappointed with the the artist. But different strokes for different folks. The partying on the beach is about 3 seconds of the entire video, and the point he was trying to convey is that yes, we are all human...I think the essence of the video lies in the people he shows in the market, rothschild st., etc with the spanish words that people use in the media to describe israelis. As an israeli citizen, I can tell you that 90% of Israelis were NOT in favor of the attack. It is difficult to really understand what is going on here without actually being here. The media is not always a good source of what is real, as shown in the article I just posted. Thanks so much and keep reading! Hi “Invincible”

I was really disappointed to hear beats and hook and flows that were at best mediocre but i still gave the message a chance. turned out his message was trying to humanize israelis by showing them partying on a beach?? the only thing that will make us more humanized as israelis is to stand up against the oppression being perpetrated in our name and by us (since all but the religious must serve in the army there, and the refusers are imprisoned) as well as funded by US taxes. we can't forget so soon that 90 percent of israelis were in favor of the attack on gaza in january. it will take much more than beach parties to transform this situation...it will take justice and solidarity. and it will take a cultural boycott of art and music that attempts to in any way normalize the israeli government policy that continues to occupy, displace, and erase palestinians. much respect, i hey fiona- usually greatly respect your taste in music and the artists you support so i gave this artist a listen.
