#2 The land is missing the grandchildren of Saladin and Othman who, with swords, established their states.

No, what it Arab world is missing is a modern Saladin or Othman. You know: a capable, highly intelligent leader None of you idiots qualify.

#6 It's the Joooo and the Americans, but mostly the Jooooos. When they're all gone, it'll be the Joooos living in America, and the rest of the Americans. After that, it'll just be the Americanss.

After that, I don't care.

#7 I hate to sound racist, but this poetic references to bravely throwing out the Israelis makes me wonder if all their works of culture aren't delusional when it comes to reality.

#9 It's not all that racist Penguin. I recommend you read the excellent novel Cities of Salt by Abdelrahman Munif if you want to get an authentic feel for the culture of Arabia in all of its glorius unreality.

#11 No song. Just 3 Palestinian Limericks

There once was a suicide bomber from Jericho,
Who strapped himself to plastique and nails ready to go!
IDF says halt,
His legs made a vault,
But the head and shoulders are still quit low!

There was an interfadite from Bethlehem,
Who said his AK-47 gun was quite a gem,
He lifted to fire,
To fill virgins desire,
But failed when his schmock tangled by its hem.

There once was a man named Arafat.
Who thought of his abilities quite a lot.
But a habit he did hide,
And of AIDS he has died,
And now do his bones most slowly rot.
