Punks israeliens et contre la guerre

Pour beaucoup de gens ici en france israel est un pays qui ne connaîtrait pas de contestation intérieure contre le militarisme et les délires des ultra religieux comme des ultra nationalistes de l’extrême droite israélienne, c’est faux bien que minoritaire le mouvement pacifiste, contre la guerre , pour la paix avec la Palestine est bien présent et même super actif , les Punks israéliens sont particulièrement impliqués dans ce mouvement n’en déplaise aux politiciens et au militaires locaux de tsahal qui d’ailleurs ne les aiment guère ou les voient comme des déserteurs en puissance ( de nombreux Punks isreliens se font réguliérement agresser et tabasser parfois a mort par des permissionaires de tsahal ou des extrémistes de droite comme de " mauvais " israeliens ) , on se souvient de nombreuses menaces et de pressions qu’on subies par exemple le groupe Dir Yassin les ancien de Nekei Natzaa pour son engagement antimilitariste

il existe désormais un film sur notre scéne Punk en israel

Jericho’s Echos

Réalisé par Liz Nord une californienne Jericho Echo est un très bon documentaire sur la scène Punk rock israélienne, sur une partie de la jeunesse israélienne qui refuse cette militarisation toujours croissante de leur société, et qui comme toute les jeunesse mondiales n’aspire qu’a une chose la paix, mais surtout la paix entre les peuples.

Voici comment Liz Nord présente son film

" La jeunesse rebelle israélienne a pris dans ses mains la rébellion du Punk rock ses grosses guitares et ses coupes mohicans, le tout dans le pays le plus dur a vivre politiquement, en regardant a travers les yeux de ces jeunes Punk rockers, c’est un incroyable point de vue qu’on voit , mais aussi les voix de ces divers jeunes illuminent les pensées de toute une génération complètement désillusionnée , qui n’attends qu’une chose la fin de cet état de guerre permanent et de vivre leurs vies et leurs rêves d’une autre société "

voici les principaux groupe et acteurs de ce film

Smash4$ Made up of Russian immigrants to Israel, Smash4$ is a ska-punk band whose members Tom and Dennis play a big role in Jericho’s Echo, inviting us into the world of Israeli punks. The fact that they are Hebrew-speaking Russians who play music inspired by the Irish-American Dropkick Murphys points to some of the interesting cultural blending that we witness in the film. URL :
