This week at Latma – the Hebrew-language media satire website I edit, we decided to do something new. We produced a clip in English. There we feature the Turkish-Hamas “love boat” captain, crew and passengers in a musical explanation of how they con the world.

 

We think this is an important Israeli contribution to the discussion of recent events and we hope you distribute it far and wide.

 

All the best,
Caroline

Welcome to all the listeners from the Rick Santorum show this morning. I hope you enjoy!

    I love it.
    We at bluestarpr.org are thinking of similar video ideas for imaginary flotillas:
    Israeli flotilla to Gaza for aid to Gilad Shalit
    Kurdish flotilla to Turkey for aid to Kurds
    Bahai flotilla to Iran for aid to Bahais there

    Another home run and good timing I might add !
    It’s an opportunity not to waste for us to use YouTube to get this out to as many eyes and ears as possible.
    Fighting back is our God given responsibility and this is one good kick in the backside of the sunk Gaza Flotilla.
    It’s so easy to deliver it anywhere even in the heart of SaudijihadArabia.

    You know Caroline,
    I’m a liberal Jew from the US who works pretty hard to represent both sides to a constituency largely but not exclusively made up of liberals from many faiths. I think I have a pretty good sense of humor. But given nine people died and many Israelis as well as Palestinians were wounded I have trouble finding this satire funny. But the world is full of many things. The problem is, while I know you are right not to take it all so ominously serious, if I showed this to any of my friends they’d consider it appalling and point to it as one more reason to think of Israel NEGATIVELY!
    Thought you might want to consider this a bit…

    The Israeli Foriegn Ministry should be singing backup for these guys, since it was their deliberate plan to help embarrass Israel’s government diplomatically. There can be no other explanation as to why the Foreign Ministry opposed the Israel public relations effort immediately following the flotilla being commandeered.

    Larry Snider – Your problem is that you’re a liberal with a “constituency largely but not exclusively made up of liberals”. Your “constituency” does not need any excuse to “think of Israel NEGATIVELY!” Perhaps reconsidering your constituency is in order.

  • Marcel 06/04/2010 at 7:02

    After reading Larry I’m a liberal Jew from the US Snider’s comment on the much needed video my conclusion has only been strengthened.
    Like Esau of old these liberal Jew with their mental disorder have sold their brithright for a nightstand pot full of lies and you know what else.
    They are Jews in Name Only, JINO’s as they easily morph into every other form of vile anti-Israel blob.
    Don;t let the JINO’S restrain you from standing strong for Zion.

Spoofs aren’t easy, takes skill not to go over the top 🙂 Thousands and probably millions of people will watch this little gem in days to come, and it will do Israel a lot more good than any positive coverage it managed to get in the global press.

    Caroline,
    Absolutely brilliant. I think it is going viral and it ought to.
    To Larry Snider and the likes, YOU are the problem. Self-hating Jews, Liberal Jews, Jews who have been contaminated by the “ism” of the day…wake up. By trying to be oh-so-balanced, you are encouraging and defending enemies of the Jewish people whose single goal is to kill us all, you included. They have no desire to spare you just because you think you are so virtuous. They will use you then destroy you. It is the Jews who have remained true to Judaism throughout history who have saved the Jewish people from extinction. It is the Jews like you who have tried to appease and blend in the tyranny of the day who embolden and encourage those who wish to destroy us.

    Ridicule is just what is needed here. The world’s reaction has been insane on this so actual, reasonable argument is impossible. And what is there to debate? A country has the right to protect its boarders. The thing that I have only heard scant information about is that Egypt is somehow in on this blockade too because they have an interest in keeping weapons from getting into Gaza.
    I don’t hear those condemning Israel condemning Egypt.

    Depressingly though (Or amusingly, depending on ones propensity to mischief-making), it would cause outrage amongst the liberals in the UK where the default position is to blame Israel for any problem at all in the middle east.

I’m an italian Jew and I don’t think this is the best way of doing humour on a tragedy like that one happened on that boat. Of course I think that it was a trap for IDF, and maybe they chose the “minor” evil, but video like these make Goym people angrier towards Israel and towards Sionism. I apologize for my language, but I hope you people give me an answer.

Especially with all the evidence visible and out of his mouth just where he stood! He is dividing & tearing us/US to shreds and and doing all he can to destroy Israel….Ps83 right along side the rest of the enemies! People there are dying EVERY day and fear for their lives every moment.

    In this modern age of videos, the ‘con the world’ video is an excellent way to present the truth to the world – thank you !!!
    Any person who does not believe that Israel is the ‘good guy’ in this conflict has been completely brainwashed … or simply hates Jews.

    Brilliant parody/satire–I passed it on to many across the USA. My only suggestion for editing, if any edits are done on any future “reissue” is to include a few people in the background wearing “Women in Black,” “Free Gaza,” “Code Pink” and “Woodstock” T-Shirts, together with a few more wearing “Pentagon Bomber Bill Ayers” T-Shirts. There’s no reason not to include them in this fitting tribute.

    Way to go! Humor, sarcasm and a subtext of buoyancy constitute weapons which are both non-lethal and deadly to people who follow the dictate of Noted Humanitarian Khomenei that there is no room in Islam for humor.
    Now if the team could do the same sort of skewering by humor on all the useful idiots of the American and Western European self-anointed intellectual and political elites, the results might be most edifying. Particularly if the targets scream with wounded dignity.

    PR is the only way to go in our times. The Arab world has a well oiled media machine and where they cannot succeed on the battlefield, they are reaping media rewards. It baffles me that the Israeli government is lagging behind in this altogether. Caroline, I follow your articles and your logical thinking all the time. This is well done. Humor was not the intent here, only to get the facts across in a way that the world will stop and listen. Looking forward to a follow up video, really soon. We need it so!

    It is hard to say what is good and what is bad.
    Anti-Semites will hate you regardless of what you will or will not do. So, I do not worry about upsetting those because they got upset the moment you and I got born.
    Other people, decent kind, will become your friends or at least will try to take more critical look.
    In any event, I believe, this kind of stuff must be coming and coming. Pen is mightier than a sword.

    As an Arab I often get flack for defending Israel’s right to defend itself against hostile neighbors. I think that Israel is the rightful home of the Jewish people and they have every right to defend themselves. However, I think that Palestinians also have rights and they are suffering greatly, and a majority of the blame for this rests squarely on Hamas’ shoulders. This “satirical” video is insensitive and plays right into the hands of groups like Hamas and other anti-semetic people who are always quick to demonize Israel and blame them for all the problems in the region.

    “Due to a misunderstanding on our part, earlier (Friday) we inadvertently issued a video link that had been sent for our perusal,” according to a statement from Israel’s Government Press Office, which distributed the link to media outlets.
    “It was not intended for general release,” the statement said. “The contents of the video in no way represent the official policy of either the Government Press Office or of the State of Israel.”

    How is it that so many weak,defeatist,cowardly,quisling apologists manage to be working for the Israeli government at a time like this ?
    Israel has a solution to the Gaza Blockade Runners ,something they failed to do in January of 2009.
    DEFEAT Hamas ,re-take Gaza and the IDF can be waiting at the Gaza port for all aid ships.
    Eventually Israel will have to neutralize the Gaza threat, better now than later.

    I don’t understand Liberal American Jews, as someone stated above, all of the information on Obamas anti-Semitism was available prior to the election. I can only assume that Liberal Jews are simply craven cowards.

    “But given nine people died and many Israelis as well as Palestinians were wounded I have trouble finding this satire funny.”
    Sheesh. We can’t use rockets or bombs to defend ourselves (because that’s “disproportionate”); We can’t use targetted assassinations to defend ourselves (because that violates other nations’ sovereignty); and now you tell us we can’t even use ridicule. Because that’s insensitive or something.
    Give me a break with your shaming language.
    Is there anything (besides appeasement and surrender) that the Israelis (and by extension the entire Jewish people) can do do defend ourselves which would meet with your approval?
    Somehow I doubt it. Because at bottom, it’s pretty obvious that most of Israel’s detractors believe that Israel has no right to defend herself and no right to exist.

    I apologise for the partially duplicated comment; I edited my original remarks to clarify them after noticing a commenter who appeared to feel this was in bad taste. It isn’t. Exposing propaganda is a vital function of comedy. If I ever die in similar circumstances, I hope someone will mock the real culprits as ably as you did here.

    Might you get this published somewhere other than YouTube? YouTube is blocked in Turkey (my location). I got to the site through a proxy and, with just a little trouble, found the video, but not everyone wants to bother with that. If they could just get straight to it with one click, more people here would see it.
    FYI most of the secular Turks I live and work amongst take a balanced view of this incident and are annoyed with the IHH and the government, which they think encouraged the flotilla’s sailing for reasons of its own, for dragging Turkey into this confrontation with Israel.
    If YouTube hadn’t already been blocked by a secular minded court for a video insulting Ataturk, I’m sure the Islamist government would somehow get it blocked for your video.

    But now thinking about it a little more and seeing the response the video is getting, I have come to the conclusion that truth is the best weapon Israel has in the media war. And satire is the best way to convey the truth. And we Jews are the best in the world at satire.

    Comment on Criticism of This Video as Insensitive or Racist or Any Similar Theme —
    “We Are The World” has been parodied again and again since it was released in the 1980s. Some of the more notable parodies came from Saturday Night Live, both recently and in the 1990s, Weird Al Yankovic, and the “In Living Color” crew. There are countless others out there. The themes of the parodies range from awareness of music file sharing to finding jobs for unemployed celebrities.
    Then there are the countless parodies of the song’s co-author, Michael Jackson.
    Singling out “We Con the World” and labeling it as insensitive to a famine in the 1980s just doesn’t fly.

Some have even chopped up the video and inserted non-sense clips to retort the various phrase. One way to combat this would be to issue copyright infringement notices (aka DCMA take down notice) to youtube. Deny the haters the ability to use this incredibly creative work against k’lal yisroel.

    The Left in America has still not put the pieces together as far as Hamas and Alcaida and maybe never will. Hopefully those of us who think and are aware of what is going on will work to save America and Israel from Islamic terrorists.

I heard an interviewer ask Lenny Solomon (AKA Schlock Rock) if it is legally problematic to record famous rock tunes with his Jewish themes. He responded that it was legal under the criteria of “Legal Parody”. If this is true, “We Con the World” could only be a copy right violation if it is TRUE. If it’s a parody, no problem. What is illegal is the kind of usage done by Harrison when he wrote My Sweet Lord using the tune from He’s So Fine. Either way, I WANT “We Con the World” back on the internet. It is a classic!!! Kol HaKavod!

    I loved the video. Israel has my undying support as an American. But I am deeply saddened that the video has been copyrighted. This is an important and critical message that has now become tethered. Many will not see this message of truth because of someone’s need to make money. Whatever else is for sale it should not be this message.

    Waaaah! Your video isn’t available anymore through YouTube — they’ve pulled it everywhere. Now all you get when you go there is this: “This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Warner/ Chappell Music, Inc.” It’s more likely because so many people were getting the truth from it! Anything you can do?

    I see that you’ve taken down the video due to copyright claims. At least in the United States, parody is NOT a violation of copyright. In particular, there’s a case about the song “Pretty Woman” that was parodied in a rap, and the court held it was not an infringement…the law is readily available on google. There are many cases on this. You might want to consult a lawyer because the video was quite powerful.

    FWIW, it’s still available as a number of different postings, but you have to use the youtube search function to find them.

    I don’t know if Time Warner wants to silence you or make a killing on your labor because their so-called “intellectual property” died over two decades ago.
    Either way, both people, and conglomerates, should be careful what they wish for, because they might get it. Time-Warner, by greasing palms of the right government officials over several decades, has become one of the largest media companies on the planet. But if their customers get the impression that they are trying to stifle free speech, and retaliate with a worldwide boycott, how long would it take for Time-Warner to become one of the smallest? Divestiture works in mysterious ways!

    Caroline, the “We Con the World” video was brilliant,and it’s so important to do more work in English. Just as an FYI, I’m an author whose background includes musical comedy, so if your group is interested in doing some political spoofs of songs from popular musicals I’d be happy to provide some “appropriate” lyrics.

    I love the video. Everyone is so talented. Regarding the legal issues, try to find as many copies as possible of prior parodies of the song. Speak to many copyright attorneys (there are attorneys who specialize in internet issues)to make sure that most agree on the subject. Keep expressing the voice of reasonable people throughout the world.

    Yashar Koah, Caroline, for a 5 minute explanation of the Flotilla Flap and the Gaza proble. This is the best piece of PR ever to come out of Israel. Hilarious, and so true. The Flotillans beat the Israelis with iron bars and the Israelis retaliate (disproportionately of course) by writing a song….The UTube counter got to almost 2 million at one point. Keep up the good work. Am chai Yisrael!

    Caroline,
    I see they took off your interview from the JewishTVnetwork, you had your own little 6 day war going on there that no one could get control of. I hope you got a lot visits here because of that. Did anyone ever tell you that you would make a good JEDI 🙂 Smiles from 0~B~1

    Great video, great talent and voices; yes, I can see where some would consider it insensitive. I’m not Jewish but I have friendly feelings for Israel generally speaking and I LOVE the parodies of the left (even more insane than here in America apparently) that Latma does.
    Thanks for laugh.
    btw, outrageous that they took it down for “copyright” reasons. We all know why they took it down.

    The home loans are essential for guys, which want to start their organization. As a fact, it is not really hard to get a college loan.
