Zionist Rappers Sing About Peace, Stopping Holy War [Video]

OK, so you're going to hate this. Like really, really hate this. Not because it's pro-peace - which is a message that we of course endorse - but because of the really, really stupid way that it's pro-peace. Like cringe-worthy stupid. Like John Lennon "peace is here if you want it" soppy can't-we-all-just-get-along stupid. But it prominently features Sivan, who is currently sitting on top of MR's musical crush list. Ergo:

Serious takeaway: the group of rappers up on stage, by the by, are from the TACT label - the single biggest and most popular Israeli music label ever. They're singing about peace and stopping holy war. Now here's the Frontpage article about the overwhelming dominance of jihadi themes in popular Islamic hiphop. Obviously, the leftist sophisticates are right: it's not anything about Islam, it's religion in general that's the problem.
