This Week with David Rovics

New song: "If We're All Palestinians"

In the Israeli military there is a popular expression.  They say the soldiers of the world's most moral army, as they call themselves, care so much about humanity -- even Palestinian humanity -- that they are all crying while they're shooting.  I'm quite certain the same is true for Elias Rodriguez as he shot the Israeli diplomats.

Labour Beat radio interview

On my recent trip to BC I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Brian Charlton & Stephen Harvey for their Labour Beat radio show. We had a wide-ranging and downright fascinating conversation. The first 40 minutes of this episode represents Part 1.

New song: "In Our Dreams"

When all is lost, all that's left is our dreams.

"Where Were You (When the Jewish State Committed Genocide)" REMIX

Another powerful and timely remix to the latest song I've recorded, from Chet Gardiner.

Judging FalastinVision 2025

While EuroVision was getting the headlines, FalastinVision was where you could find the most relevant music.

Genocide and the Deafening Silence

Some thoughts on the silent majority.

New song: "When the Jewish State Committed Genocide"

There is a mythology so many of us grew up with, that because of the experience of the Nazi holocaust, Jews were generally a more moral people, as a whole, and no state run almost entirely by Jews could possibly do something like genocide another people. This mythology was wrong, and Gaza is the evidence.

 

"As We Watched a Million Children Die" REMIX

Chet added some musical touches to serve the song and turn up the intensity a notch.

"This is What Genocide Looks Like" REMIX

Chet Gardiner has made some powerful improvements to the song, with various instruments.  The genocide of the people of Gaza is happening now, via famine and disease.  One thing you can do right now is share this song.  Songs can reach places the news stories don't.
