"Babylon is everywhere, and Zion is in you."
What a beautiful line.
Goosebumps. Goosebumps every time.
Well maybe this would sound better if it was not for the zionists…
Ist there not a big different between jews and Zion?
@@sarahmorgenstern2731 Zion is a place name; Jews are a people. So yes, there's a big difference between Jews and Zion. It's a bit like asking whether there's a difference between the Irish and Dublin.
The problem is that Zionism (a colonialist ideology) has come to dominate modern Judaism in a way it really didn't for much of Jewish history. Even in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, there was a strong Jewish internationalist movement that opposed the idea of Jews moving to Palestine. For internationalist Jews, "Zion" tended to mean not the place as such but a state of holiness.
@@TheatreofPhil ich frage mich und Sie, warum haben sich die Juden NICHT gegen Zionismus zur Wehr gesetzt?
#WeiseVonZion
hatten sich als satanische Organisationen gezeigt. Logen, Freimaurerei versuchten Staaten und Städte zu unterwandern , kein einziger von denen konnte als Mensch bezeichnet werden.
Juden hätten sich gegen den Diebstahl ihrer Identität wehren müssen und wehren können.
This song, this performance, is more important now even then when it was filmed.
a beautiful statement of its like to be a jew, a secular, non-zionist jew, who seeks liberation for everyone no matter their religion or nationality
Смрт Фашизму, Слобода Народу
Death to Fascism, Freedom to the People
The secret to liberation is in defending secular Constitutions wherever they are in place. America is on the verge of being a theocracy and Israel is well beyond that. The place where everyone can practice any faith or lack of faith equally is a secular state, because its core raison d'etre isn't religion.
@@randomserb761 смерть фашизму!
death to universal egalitarianism freedom to the aristocrats of the soul@@randomserb761
I feel this
I am a Polish-Irish Catholic, and this is among the top ten best things I've randomly found on the internet. Thank you for being brilliant and wise and funny and skilled, and for sharing all of that with the rest of us.
"The thing you hate in others is the thing you hate in you"....
Ancient Jewish wisdom from the mishna
The thing that you hate in others is typically the thing that you cannot see in yourself, but you would hate it if you could see it. So much alike are we, ourselves and our adversaries, we are like comic cats fighting their image in a mirror.
Why do people hate anti-semites?
@@mudr.krakonoskrakonosovic1827 Because many of the nicest and brightest people in the world are Jewish and because anti-semitism is an artifact based on superficial pretexts that have no basis in reality. Jews have been blamed for one thing and the opposite of thing, showing the absurdity of it all , such as in blaming them both for being Marxists and being greedy bankers, which is the opposite of a Marxist. I not buy either that there is "blame" in Marxism as probably no one has had more genuine concern for exploited workers, a perfectly legitimate cause regardless of results in the attempted pursuit of that cause. The hate has been largely a result of worshipping different unicorns and in the propaganda of wealthy interests that despise Marxism simply because the economic philosophy is a threat to their excessive wealth.
The Marxism connection at any rate seems largely historical, except maybe for a few such as Daniel Kahn. I say that the struggle is not over, because MarxIsm and communism were never really the story, but just chapters in the story. The real story is that of rich vs poor, which is as old as humanity and unresolved. It will not be resolved until all classes are satisfied with their lot.
@@mudr.krakonoskrakonosovic1827 Because anti-Semitism is the symptom of a greater affliction.
I’m hard pressed to find another song that so well connects with my identity. I feel like each like of this song could be debated for several hours with no reasonable conclusion, just as is Jewish tradition. I think Daniel Khan randomly breaks into song at family gatherings and it just happened to be caught by a well coordinated camera crew!
We of pink triangles have long known that we are Jews in essential respects. Thanks for expressing this poetically.
Da kann ich Sonntag frueh nicht mehr schlafen, und was finde ich? Einen Schatz!
I always thought that this song should get more attention, both from the artist and audience. Thank you, Daniel, for raising it to another level.
This clearly is Daniel’s tour de force. He speaks for most of us.
Mann, Daniel, da hast du aber einen rausgeholt!
I'm Polish living in the French part of Canada, and a communist, this song is the most beautiful thing I've heard ... the jews are truly, the most beautiful thing that happen in recent history, thank you for bridging the light to us in the dark
Großartig, noch immer und jetzt erst recht!
I keep coming back to this video when it's relevant.
Oh Daniel Kahn - so brilliant - what a great poet we all have with you!
This was confronting, weird, inconclusive and at times barely coherent...and I absolutely love love love it
welcome to the tribe mate
A Rabbi for a new generation of proud but secular Jews
And religious jews as well. Don't know what frum people think of him, but I know this song really thrills me.
@@luccabacal9152 Honestly, I would think there's something to appreciate about him as an artist regardless of where you fall on the spectrum of Jewish identity. I've even turned some gentile friends into fans. Bottom line; the man is a treasure.
As a saved Gentile, this song honestly breaks my heart. All these troubles have befallen Israel, and they still can’t seem to understand why God is allowing it to happen to them. May God open your people’s eyes to the glorious light of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Romans 10:4 KJV
[4] For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
@@luisb3426 Oh shut up
@@luisb3426 &
I love the splashes of spoken word in this one.
Bless you, Rabbi, you provided a very important piece of understanding.
Daniel, jesteś, bo byłeś Gość. Mam Twoich kilka C.D.'s, a które to nabyłem kilkanaście lat temu. Wiem, że byłeś w Polsce, lecz nie było mnie wtedy, czego żałuję. No cóż, tak bywa. Chcę podzielić się z Tobą tym, że ja podobnie jak Ty, jestem Artystą, bo gram na akordeonie i śpiewam piosenki w jidysz. Uwielbiam taką Muzykę i ten Język. Odezwij się, proszę. Bądź zdrów!
It's a miracle, thanks Daniel Kahn
A brilliant and touching song. I hope the author finds that inner Jew where Tzion is a promised home in the heart.
Thank you. This is an admirable lesson of life ! the only word I know in yiddish is "mishiguene". Marie my friend, her father refugee from Poland in France with a family of three, 2 girls and a newborn, was arrested and deported, did not come back. Mother and newborn were hidden in a basement, the two girls find shelter with catholics nuns. After war, Marie had bad relations with her mother who would call her mishiguene all the time. My dad (soldier) was prisoner in Germany five years. I guess the fact he had studied latin, greek and german and as sub-officer made them keep him. People of my generation never understood the silence of witnesses.
איך האָב ליב דעם בחור, בפֿרט זײַנע ייִדישע לידער. אזא טאלאנט צו האלטן לעבעדיק די אשכנזישע קולטור און שפראך! א גרויסן דאנק אייך, דניאל!
What a masterpiece!
A flowing rainbow of poetry and depth
Daniel, to say you are talented is a bit of an understatement. A shaynem dank.
a dank! You manage to touch my soul each time you sing one of your own. Brilliant lyrics!
You are truly the most beautiful artist I've ever heard, from a half French half polish.
Superklasse!!! Vielen Dank für solch eine Bereicherung!
Thank you very much, one very beautiful sung poem piece of wisdom.
Love this song! A sheynem dank
"С проницаемыми границами между старым и новым, это способ спрятать то, что они хотели бы у вас отнять... "абсолютно прекрасно
Yet another brilliant work. Thank you, Daniel!
Just found Daniel Kahn and -Christ- he's amazing!
Remember that the children of Israel ended up bowing down before Joseph, whom they hated and tried to kill. You guys killed Jesus Christ your God, but someday you’ll bow before him.
John 3:14-16 KJV
[14] And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: [15] That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. [16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
@@luisb3426 imagine missing the entire point of the song because you think you have to spread your toxic religious ideas to every single person you meet
@@luisb3426 remember, Christ was a child of Israel
@@luisb3426 don’t forget Jesus was also jewish. I bet you believe in the blood libel too
Love the cigar box uke! I play cigar box myself , and tenor uke
Fantastic 💚
Stunning!! What the Tanakh is really about.
A friend of mine (who is an jewish anarchist living in Israel) showed me this and I love it so much. For my German ass this re-contextualizes a lot of stuff. Thank you a lot, Daniel Kahn.

@@oakshell7793 Could you maybe abstain from trolling and state clearly what your problem is? Otherwise I will stop to interact with you.
Are you angry that I like the video while being german? Why? Most people in the video are germans too. It was even funded by the german government.
This is amazing
I'm agnostic at best but I must admit that this is exactly the time of the year where I always wonder if you jews don't have it right from all of us. because I'm really struggling with the world as it is - if the almighty creator already has send down his redeemer, why is this place still the clownshow that it is? On the other hand, even if your kind of believe comes as near to me as any believe can come, I'm still gatekept by the fact that my mother believed differently... don't know whether I'd be a good jew or not, but even if not, I'd think, you folks are at least not overestimating our heavenly father

Унтер-это значит выше,возвышение(как русский понимает) как высший национал (это как высшая раса), или интер-общий? интернационал? объясните,что вы имели ввиду?С уважением и любовью к вашему творчеству.
Унтер - это "ниже", выше - это "убер". Дэниэл и Псой когда-то рассказывали, что это была случайная опечатка, но они увидели смысл в том, что некоторые вещи унтернациональны, лежат где-то глубоко и их нужно найти. Это интервью гуглится по "unternationale", емнип

You know, there's another band you might be aware of, who often share a very similar sentiment in their songs: Gogol Bordello. Tho the word they would use is unfortunately problematic in itself: "Gipsy" (again, I'm sorry - but since they actually are a Romani band, they've chosen to use that word).
I dunno if youtube links work in youtube comments any more, but anyone interested should check out the songs "Wonderlust King" and "Immigraniada" by Gogol Bordello! If you like Daniel's other work, you should like that band, too :D
cannot find the full lyrics of this genius piece anywhere. only different versions. help?

I would like to say human, I think it's the real name of what he call jew.
But human is the worst as well as the best we can do. So I guess we have to choose another word,
So why not jew even with all the misunderstandings it is likely to cause.
Time to leave Babylon for Tzion. 2500 yrs of wandering was more than enough.
Just found this. Beautiful…at the end someone eats an oyster. Come on gang. If you are being a Jew. Know your laws. Oysters Not kosher.
I am not sure but I believe he is a Messianic Jew. That's what I am. They believe in Christ. He's the king of the Jews after all. Christ said all food is clean.
Am Israel Chai. The importance of Israel has never been more important. No Zionism = no Israel = no Jews. We are not perpetrators of anything bad, just good.
Jewish diaspora leaves outside of the State of Israel and has been for decades, centuries, millennia.
But now we wouldn't exist without it?
Zionism is nationalism and nationalism marginalize, exclude and kill.
Yeah, what's a warcrime anyway?
@@-vaniii- What wartime are you talking about. Can you clarify yourself and provide references to it?
How would there be no Jews without Israel? Are you suggesting there would be a second, successful Holocaust that would kill not just a large Jewish population but the entirety of Jewish people, without having a state to protect themselves? Are you suggesting that with the loss of Israel Jewish people would no longer be authentically Jewish? What about ultra-orthodox highly religious Jews who oppose Israel for religious reasons, or secular Jews who oppose it for moral reasons? I’m not Jewish or Israeli I’m simply trying to understand your perspective better, I apologize if the things I say can be seen as offensive or insensitive, I’m just curious what your viewpoint is as I don’t really hear/see many/any valid reasons for the existence of Israel as a state.
If your claim that Israel secures the existence of the Jewish people, that would be pretty valid- I have no issues with Jewish people, and I don’t want them to stop existing. However, I don’t think I believe that to be true, as Jewish people have lived before the state of Israel, and they will continue to live after it’s gone.
Lagolop also, I’m not sure exactly which war crimes the previous commenter was referring to, but a brief google of “Israeli warcrimes” brings up websites talking about murders conducted by Israeli Defence Forces, using excessive and unnecessary violence on civilians who do not pose threat. The actions of Mossad and linked USA-Israel intelligence operations in the Middle East are pretty atrocious in many people’s opinion, as well as people considering the Israeli occupation of Palestine to be invalid, especially when it gets into the issues of the West Bank and settlements. My issues of settler-colonialism with Israel are not unique to that country. I live in Canada, and I have just as many issues with my own country as I do with Israel. I would go as far as to say I would like to see the destruction of the Canadian settler-colonial state; so please don’t perceive my distaste of Israel as something unique to the Jewish state
This guy's ideals are horrific on so many moral and philosophical levels but hey, good voice.
His singing voice is the only unappealing thing here
