The supposed phrase in question is "There's no school tomorrow, there's no children left in Gaza! Oleh!".

Can anyone confirm that is really what they are singing?

Also I'm curious, is this kind of "support" common in Israel or would this be considered fringe extremism?

even if they were, they are not representative of the view of Israeli's. Damning a whole nation because of the actions of a few is not fair or realistic.

No it's not fair, but it does seem to swing the other direction often.

Quite ironic since a lot of the pro-war posters here have damned every Palestinian man, woman and child in the Gaza strip for a very similar reason.

Yes, but because other people do it means not we should follow their example.

I do not let the views of extremists interfere with my views for the rest of the population of Israel or the occupied territories.

what this tells us is that the stupid, the ignorant, the mean, the evil, do not only reside on one side of this conflict
yes, we should already know that
but it seems many do not, or choose to pretend that is not the reality

I don't disagree, just stating that it's common for us to condemn entire groups based on the actions of the few.

The translations are good. Tibi is a member of the Knesset who is an anti-Zionist. Though some find him someone to work with he sometimes is a little too friendly with Palestinians who aren't as nice as him. But I really can't blame him for that.

Haneen Zoabi is a horrible person, also a member of the Knesset (by the way those who condemn Israel as an Apartheid state should note that is two members of the ruling body of Israel who hate Israel). She condemned her own family member because he was concerned over the kidnapped Israelis several weeks ago. She got kicked out of the Knesset for 6 months over that. She is also noted for assaulting an usher at a Knesset debate.

Are these extremists? Yes. This is clearly not what a majority of the Israelis are like. In fact I fear that these voices may in fact start to gain more ground. But as you can see from the video this isn't an extremely large crowd. There have been many larger ones in support of peace. Praying for the children of Gaza.

Thank you for the information, I don't know much about the middle east so when I see things like this I have no idea what to make of it.

The translations are accurate. They're hateful morons and no they do not represent Israeli citizens as a whole. Much like the Palestinian extremists do not represent the Palestinians as a whole which is contrary to much of the garbage spewed by the ignorant and uninformed.

These nutjobs are going to be disappointed, there's still children left. 23 kids were killed yesterday, there's still kids there.
