(Gaza City) On Tuesday, a children's musical troupe from Jordan performed an outdoor concert for the Palestinian youngsters in Gaza.
The group, known as The Birds of Paradise, recently produced a music video circulated on the Internet in which a young girl sings, “When we die as martyrs we will go to heaven.”
On a stage made to look like a Palestinian village children dressed as Israeli soldiers “massacre” civilians before the camera switches to a grown man singing, “Children you have fulfilled your religious obligation... You have taught us the meaning of manhood.”[…]
Khaled Muqdad, the founder of the 12-member troupe, told AFP they had come “to put smiles on the faces of children who have suffered from the Israeli war and the (internal) political troubles.”
And at a formal welcoming ceremony with Hamas MPs, he said the concert would “affirm to the entire world the right of the children of Palestine to live in freedom and dignity.”
So, the goal is to tell the world that Palestinian children have the right to live free while encouraging the children to die for Allah. I'm confused.
What good is the right to live free if you're just sending the children to be martyred on suicide missions?
