Bukra Fi Mishmish (meaning "When Pigs Fly", or when the impossible happens - video by HEARTBEAT - an Israeli/ Palestinian youth music collaboration. This is great to see!
That was a great song. And all really cute people. It wouldn't play yesterday but played today. I couldn't open the Huffington post article yesterday either. Those kids must know first hand a lot of trouble and attrocity that we don't. Wow good for them singing this. Maybe that idea will spread and things will get better in the future over there.

It said, this video is presently unavailable, please try again later or something like that. I've come across that a few times, very rarely. Some technical glitch I guess. And the Huffington link probly didn't work for me because of my slow connection. Some pages take ages, especially if they have photo slideshows or video players and lots of ads on them.

Good. I want to be sure about copyrights. I don't think posting a link is a problem though, right?

good melody -- i'm glad that at least someone gets the chance to show how life really is over there, despite the addictive cynical message the mainstream media gives us of untold suffering and pain caused by caucasians...
No, no problem posting links. They probly like the extra advertizing! You can also control whether or not people can embed when you upload a video, so if you can embed it, it's ok to do so.

"With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine."
Sorry had to throw that one in.
