R.I.P.
Here is a VERY ROUGH translation of the words, even though I do not believe sucha beautiful song can be translated into a language like english:
Opening:
Three men and three verdicts, the accusation: love of Palestine, the ruling judgement: execution.
O Atta Al Zeir, Foud Hejazi, O Jamjoum, O three shining stars! You lit up the land of my nation, and from Akka came the funerals for three doves, emerging from the darkness and spreading my country with rays of light.
Song:
They were three men, racing towards death, in front of them the deadly predicament of the oppressor. And they met it with bravery and courage as great as the area of the country they were defending.
(Ya 3ain Ya 3ain x 3)
O the darkness of the prison (of Akka) is too much, when will it be over for these brave men? The day is Tuesday the 3rd, O My Land (Palestine) answer...who will race to give his life and blood for you?
(Ya 3ain Ya 3ain x3)
From Akka's Prison came the funerals, Mohammad Jamjoun and Fouad Hejazi,
Mourn for them O my people mourn,
The grief of the year has come.
From Akka's Prison came the funerals, Mohammad Jamjoun and Fouad Hejazi,
Mourn for them O my people mourn,
The grief of the year has come

Mohammad Jamjoum with his will, Fouad Hejazi with his love of righteousness, look what they offered!
Only to have the judgement of the Oppressor execute them!
Mohammad Jamjoum with his will, Fouad Hejazi with his love of righteousness, look what they offered!
Only to have the judgement of the Oppressor execute them!
And Say O Mohammad 'I am the first among you!', my voice O Atta is in your honour, and say O Hejazi "I am the first among you", that is the strength of their honour.
And Say O Mohammad 'I am the first among you!', my voice O Atta is in your honour, and say O Hejazi "I am the first among you", that is the strength of their honour.

O my dear loving mother the time has come, with all the nations of the world to witness, they called Fouad, O Fouad, they cannot even say farewell!
O my dear loving mother the time has come, with all the nations of the world to witness, they called Fouad, O Fouad, they cannot even say farewell!
They call to Atta, O Atta you are the glory of men and bravery, he attacked the garrison with sweeping passion!

O my brother Yousef, and you my mother, do not (act in revenge) my sister lest you fall into demise. For the sake of this country I sacrificed my blood, it is all for you O Palestine.

Tom Hurndall was shot through the head by the Israeli army. We follow his grieving family who came to Gaza to see what their son was doing. Five-year-old Salamah was one of three children Tom was attempting to rescue when he was shot. He had frozen in fear when soldiers began firing at him. Another young peace campaigner, Brian Avery, is lucky to be alive after a burst of machine gun fire ripped off half his face. He now lies in hospital with horrific scars barely able to talk. The Israelis are cracking down on foreigners entering the Gaza Strip.

A look at the Palestinian suicide bombers.
Strapped with explosives, Izzedine Masri left his affluent home near Jenin to blow himself up in Jerusalem -- killing 15 Israeli civilians. It's not too hard to find others who want to follow his example." Many young men seek this martyrdom because it's accepted by God and has no judgement", says one young man. Israel's attempts to hit back harder have only served to deepen resistance and unite the Palestinian factions. "Fatah, Al-Kassam Brigades and Islamic Jihad are united, and have pledged to avenge the martyrs blood," yells one hooded gunmen at a Hamas rally. But much of the popular anger is reserved for the Palestinians who betray the cause and work with the Israeli secret service -- the Shin Bet. "The state of Israel could not have existed and would not be able to exist without these collaborators," says Rami Barhm. Secret video footage shows the gruesome execution of a Hamas collaborator. The information he provided to the Shin Bet led to the death of two of his colleagues. Senior Shin Bet officer, Moshe Kuperburg was in charge of recruiting Palestinian agents and collaborators. "Intelligence is the most important thing because it feeds the military and the government." He claims they have Palestinian spies in the senior leadership of every Palestinian faction. Rare pictures from the security service's own website show agents working undercover, immersing themselves in Palestinian communities. However, there is widespread criticism of their recruitment methods. "Israel pressure Palestinians to collaborate, both in torture and interrrogations," comments Jessica Montell, of human rights group B'Tselem.

Most of Hamas' weapons are smuggled in through tunnels between Gaza and Egypt. These tunnels are usually dug by children, who know they could be killed at any moment.
Every night, 14 year old Said scrambles down a narrow shaft leading to a tunnel. He'll spend the next eight hours digging without a break. It's claustrophobic, difficult work. The heat in the tunnel is unbearable and the more they advance, the harder it becomes to breathe. At any moment, the tunnel could come crashing down, burying them alive. That's not the only danger. "Sometime the Egyptians shoot gas into the tunnel that might kill us", states Ramdan. "There are risks of electric shocks and the Israelis might bomb the entrance". Since Hamas seized control of Gaza, the borders have been closed. The tunnels are the only way to import goods into the territory. "They're a gold mine!" states Said. But to his disgust, most of the profits go to other people. "We do all the work, then they swindle us", he complains. Once the tunnel is nearly ready, "other people will open it, do the trafficking and make more money than us". The money he does make will enable Said to support his entire family. But everytime he goes into the tunnel, he knows: "You are digging your own grave". Tags: Hamas Gaza Tunnels Weapons Rockets Palestine Journeyman Pictures  |
