Children in a kindergarten run by a
Palestinian charitable organization recently held a graduation ceremony in
which preschoolers wore military uniforms and brandished toy machine guns as
they performed a parade routine to a song vowing violence against enemies...
The ceremony was filmed by a television
station affiliated with the Palestinian Authority and posted on the internet
last week, according to the US-based group MEMRI, which translated and posted the clip on Monday.
The kindergarten is in Anabta, in the
Tulkarm area of the West Bank, and belongs to the Anabta women’s charity
association...
A large photograph of the late PLO
leader Yasser Arafat was on the stage where the children performed.
The room was festively decorated, and
the performance was watched by what appeared to be several dozen adults.
...the words of the song
to which the children performed run as follows:
“On the mountains, behind the hills, within the valleys – you will be defeated, you will be defeated.“Whether you come by sea, or by air – you will be crushed, you will be crushed.
“If you stretch your hand, it will be chopped off. If you just look with your eye, it will be gouged out. The defeated army will be too terrified to come back.
“We come for you before, and woe betide you if we come back again. You come to this land alive, but you will leave it as body parts.”
