New song: ”The Apocalypse Will Be Televised”

Meanwhile in the Occupied West Bank, many hundreds have been killed in the past two months in ongoing, extremely violent and destructive pogroms carried out by armed settlers, aided by soldiers. 

New song: ”Famine and Disease”

New song: ”Once the Last Palestinian’s Killed”
