The following song is a remake of the Hebrew disco song sung originally by Ofra Haza who made an impact on the world music arena in the 80-s and had died of Aids in the end of the 90-s. The remake is work of art in the art of confusing the listener, which I find very entertaining. It starts with a Spanish guitar theme, someone sings something in some African language, and then a piano escorts a relaxed vocal beginning. Then enters the dance and techno rhythms, all the while the singing becomes a “symphony” of Middle Eastern vocals and Georgian folk music motifs. Extremely confusing. It’s flamingo – turned into Jordanian music and wedding dancing clapping. It ends with techno.

When the heck are we going to finally get rid of Olmert? Is he deliberately trying to cause harm?
YNET:Olmert: Discrimination against Arabs deliberate

I'll tell you what's terrible and deliberate... Olmert.
