Subject: RE: Was 'Lord of the Dance' anti-semitic?
irishenglish, I'm surprised you confuse the People's Front of Judea (a well-known gang of splitters, sycophants and Roman lackeys) with the Judean People's Front, the real strugglers against the Romans. You'll notice that this song carefully avoids mentioning the political struggle that was going on at that time, and the JPF's proud role in it. Instead it promotes the bourgeois notions of singing and dancing.
