DAM, "Born Here", Hebrew/Arabic with English subtitles



Uploaded by: opiegonebad
Video Description:
Palestinian rap group DAM (Da Arab MC's, or "blood" in Arabic and Hebrew) created this music video about the life of Palestinians in Israel. They're from Lod, a town between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, so they're Palestinians with Israeli citizenship (often called "Israeli Arabs"). They usually rap in Arabic, but they made a Hebrew version of this song with a music video to get their message out to the majority of Israelis who don't speak Arabic.
You find out more about them at http://www.dampalestine.com/main.html . I've always wanted a subtitled version, so I broke down and adapted the lyrics from their website, to create this. I think this is one of the most powerful rap songs out there. See http://moomtastic.com/born-here.html to s
ee my extended comments on the video and its chorus.

if my people or country has done wrong against other people..I would be the first one to condemn my own people...General Nasser once set an unfair war against the rebels in yemen and he is still remembered in egypt as "the monster" who acted like an angel...RIGHTS are RIGHTS..they don't know race culture or relegion...crimes are crimes..Muhammad once said when people asked him if "cutting the hands of theives" is harsh...he said "if fatima (his daughter) did it he would personally cut her hand".

I like this song because it was broadcasted in Israel, the true terrorists, and spoken in Hebrew, the language of those oppressors. I just think that adds more to the sting factor. I actually have a friend who's medical missionary career allowed him to volunteer with the Red Cross in Palestine. He was arrested by an IDF soldier for treating a Palestinian child. He was 8 years old and had his leg blown off by an AK47. And speew, Hezbollah would stop if they were hiven a country again.

I'm not sure if this is a troll or not, but "BS man" is a pretty good user ID for someone spewing this kind of provocative statement. Can't you see that this attitude does nothing but perpetuate the conflict, and bring hurt and destruction on those you claim to care for?

respect. the way we israelis respect our nationalism, the same way we have to respect yours. youth has a great, huge power..as shown here... yet the result will again be the same - everything turned again to something even worse. the wheel of time will do its job, it will take its time to erase the mideast conflict as it erased all the previous conflicts on earth in a natural way.
Well heres the ... ( 6 days ago by mites7)
Well heres the thing, a few years ago, the Palestinians were commiting suicide attacks at a pretty horrible rate, with 2001-2003 being the worse years. But after that, the amount of israelis killed by palestinians was LOWER than the murders commited by israelis against israelis. 2007 had one death which is horrible but in that same year it was reported 240 palestinians were killed. Look at both sides otherwise you'll never solve the problem. Either one of you.

Actually, alcasurf, it's the opposite of pathetic. They did the Hebrew version in order to be understood by Jewish Israelis, who usually only speak Hebrew (and often English). They're reaching out to Jewish Israelis with open minds; it's a noble thing they're doing. Besides which, from your profile you seem to be an Italian living in Paris, but posting in English. It's ironic for you to be a language bigot, given all that.
