I have cross-posted this as it's so relevant to both World News/Current Affairs and FIlm/TV, let me explain.

Slingshot HipHop is a documentary about how young Palestinians are trying to move forward and protest by peaceful means through music.

Synopsis:

Quote:

Palestinian youth write and perform hip hop in the '48 (what they call Israel) and the occupied territories (Gaza and the West Bank). We meet DAM, a '48 group, led by Tamer Nafar; three young women who perform to rousing applause but objection from some family members and neighbors; and PR, an emerging trio from Gaza. They see rap as a way to channel anger. The camera observes them composing and performing, going to gigs, and walking the streets of Tel Aviv and Gaza. Israel's military presence is extensive: for instance, will PR be allowed to travel from Gaza to a concert in Ramallah, even with proper papers? Cell phones and the Internet link friends across walls, checkpoints, and barbed wire. Written by <jhailey@hotmail.com>

Learn to appreciate all music genres imo. Going around mocking other peoples favorite music genres is just...-.- Squirrely: Now come on y'all. We can't waste time arguing. There could still be survivors out there. We need to hunt them down, and kill them. Beary: How about we kill them, and then rape their bodies so we can use their blood as lubricant.

I saw things like that in here and in other "woman problems" topics so...... Am I the only one that thinks some authorities needs to be alerted about Saner and him possibly being a rapist and/or kidnapper ? Smile

Saner is not being serious. Unless its the subject of Santa!
