It's crazy how people seem to think they have to take sides in an argument. It's okay to say both sides are fucked up. There's plenty of videos showing Israeli kids talking about how they want to kill the Arabs, and there was that whole ass Disney/sesame street knock-off in Palistine that sang about AK-47s.

For transparency, it appears they did eventually cancel the show, but I don't know if it had to do with the content or the use of a very clearly Mickey Mouse-based character.

Edit: here's the video. To correct myself, it seems to be a poem and not a song. I should also clarify I don't speak Arabic, so I am relying on the provided subtitles.

The line in question is near the 2:30 mark.
