I've taken this from Creative=i Ska-P is a ska punk band from the working-class Vallecas neighborhood in Madrid, Spain. “Intifada” is a song from the band’s fifth album: ¡¡Que Corra La Voz!! The text below is the English translation of the lyrics of “Intifada” by Yoshie Furuhashi.

Six million Jews
Annihilated in the manner most cruel,
An imperialist genocide by the fascist armies.
You must understand history.
The victims have become executioners,
Switching roles,
Colonizing Palestinian territories, against all common sense.
Dead, dead!
In whose name?
Dead, dead!
In the name of Israel.
Dead, dead!
In whose name?
Dead, dead!
In the name of Yahweh.
What would you do if someone kicked you out of home,
Giving you no right to protest,
Trampling on your culture,
And you were plunged into madness by the loss of dignity?
Palestine in exile suffers
The opulence of Israel
For an all-powerful government
Prepared for war
By you know whom.
Dead, dead!
In whose name?
Dead, dead!
In the name of Israel.
Dead, dead!
In whose name?
Dead, dead!
In the name of Yahweh.
Stones against bullets
A new intifada
In the West Bank, Gaza, or Jerusalem.
Who could imagine
That David would become Goliath?
Who could imagine
That David would become Goliath?
Intifada, intifada, intifada — liberation!
Don’t get me wrong,
I am an atheist and
Do not believe in any god.
Nor do I differentiate people
By their race, culture, or religion shit.
I only condemn oppression,
Injustice, and
The abuse of power.
Palestine is subjected to
The toughest wars,
The opulence of Israel.
Dead, dead!
In whose name?
Dead, dead!
In the name of Israel.
Dead, dead!
In whose name?
Dead, dead!
In the name of Yahweh.
Stones against bullets
A new intifada
In the West Bank, Gaza, or Jerusalem.
Who could imagine
That David would become Goliath?
Who could imagine
That David would become Goliath?
Who could imagine
That David would become Goliath?
Who could imagine
That David would become Goliath?
Intifada, intifada, intifada — liberation!
Intifada, intifada, intifada — liberation!
