    The Northern Band -- they're not just terrorist supporters, they're NKOTB wannabes. I'm not sure which is worse.

    The group is from the West Bank and their new hit song, "Hawk of Lebanon," has been banned by the Israeli police, who consider it to be "inflammatory." Hmmm, go figure.

    The lyrics consist of constant repetition of a few simple rhymes: "Hey, you, hawk of Lebanon. Hey, you, Nasrallah. Your men are from Hezbollah and victory is yours with God's help."

    Maybe we can set them up with Prussian Blue.
     
  3. from the article on the boy band:

    Many admire Hezbollah for holding off Israel's mighty army -- similar to the popular support enjoyed by then-Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein when he fired Scud missiles at Israel in the 1991 Gulf War.

    "We used to sing for Saddam," said Saed Akrawi, 26, whose perfume shop in downtown Jenin is adorned with a Nasrallah portrait, next to posters of models. "Saddam is gone. We want someone else to sing for."
