Craziness

Culled from "imissiraq.blogspot.com", from an Iraqi expatriate doctor living the UK.

This song (and video) juxtaposed with "slice of life" posts about struggling as a new intern, being less experienced than her peers at work and trying to keep up, poetry about missing Baghdad, and, of course, long stories about friends who are maybe breaking up, but they staying together, and the touching music videos that this reminds her of.

If you're curious to the chorus to this jaunty tune, it's "Death to Israel," in Arabic of course. At first I was thinking, hey, this is pretty off the wall, this is a Western physician in the making, after all, this could be the lady treating you for whatever the next terror attack does to you...but then I realize we have songs about Bombing Baghdad and kicking Osama's arse, etc, etc, so the hate goes both ways.

Wierd. Catchy tune, though.
