Now for me, I am watching this video of all those young Israeli's dancing, half naked and having a good time.. What don't I see? The usual typical hardline extremist Islamist that we usually see on TV. No, I see young, normal happy people... Living life, dancing, not being oppressed by the hardline rule.
Nope, I see a chance for Israel. I see a vibrant, energetic youth that could soon rise up and change the ways of their homeland.
Maybe someday...
But the music ROCKS!!!

I'll second that "are you for real?!?!?!?!?"
Doesn't the iPad have like a geography and world cultures app or something?

Don't worry 8ball I got what you were getting at. Everytime I hear about Israel in the news, it isn't about some partying, fun-loving, happy-go-lucky people. Its all the doom and gloom that the middle east will never have peace, the Israellis keep fighting with the Pakistanis, "we hate them cuase they are different" blah, blah, blah.
I'm not gonna knock you for getting some foreign religion/culutre mixed up. And I have to agree with you too, if the people we see in those videos are gonna be the leaders of those nations in the future, things might just start to look up. (unless all those half-naked young'uns do have a severe hatred for others that doesn't show in music videos)
If you can watch/listen to it on a full-size system or headphones rather than tiny computer speakers, it's worth it. At first I thought these guys were Australian (who the hell else is gonna have the balls to use a didgeridoo in a techno track!??!) but I was so far off I couldn't believe it myself.
There are several other good Israeli techno acts, like Astral Projection, Infected Mushroom and Oforia.

Palestinians, perhaps?
You only see an 'Israeli hardline rule' when you're not paying attention.

Exactly my point. I really don't pay attention to anything going on over there. They can live their lives however they want, and I'll live mine. As long as we don't interfere with each other's pursuit of happiness, I'm good.
(but yeah, that's kinda embarassing to mix up Palestine with Pakistan...)
