The ruthless aggression, perpetrated by Israel has struck concerns of many including musicians like Heart. I was shivered when listening to the song, especially when following the lyric and imagining the real situation in Gaza where planes and tanks pouring fires on Palestinian ground, causing hundreds of innocent people killed for no reason. What a tragedy!

In a deep sympathy for the violated humanity,

“You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools, but our spirit will never die” –We will not go down, Michael Heart, 2009.
