When We Die As Martyrs
"When We Die As Martyrs" is a song produced by the popular Jordanian children's music troupe ''The Birds of Paradise'' and performed as a music video on a Bahrainian television channel of the same name. Sung by young Muslim Arab children, in 2010 the song became a hit on YouTube as well as Arabic and worldwide websites.〔 The song was harshly criticized by Saudi journalist Fawzia Nasir al-Naeem, who argues that it indoctrinates children into bloodshed and terrorism.〔〔
==Background==
The choir ''The Birds of Paradise'' was founded in 1994 by Jordanian-Palestinian businessman Khaled Maqdad. The television channel, which began operating in 2008, was also established by Maqdad, who says: "The channel has captured the hearts of millions of children. It succeeds where the educational system has failed, such as multiplication table songs. It helps teachers work on it with the children."〔
According to the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT), a data-gathering center on radical Islamist groups, ''The Birds of Paradise'' is becoming one of the most popular children's choirs in the Arab world. Saudi journalist Fawzia Nasir al-Naeem also wrote that the choir "is one of the most widely distributed children's song groups in the Arab world, and it seems to have crossed the ocean to Canada and Britain."〔 Dr. Hamad Al-Majid, a journalist and former member of the official Saudi National Organization for Human Rights, writes: "Birds of Paradise produced content has swept Arab satellite channels, becoming some of the most popular programming for Arab children. This company pursues a policy of resisting Israeli occupation via producing innocent songs for children, and some of these songs which can be found on YouTube have been viewed by as many as four million people."
The IPT states that "When We Die as Martyrs" is not an isolated instance from ''The Birds of Paradise'', but part of a consistent pattern of encouraging violence, which includes providing children and teenagers with links "to more sophisticated discussions of Jihad, religious hatred, and related themes", and networks where they can link up with like-minded children. In one of the videos cited by the IPT, the viewer sees "adults carrying out terror attacks on Israelis and a teenager throwing a Molotov Cocktail into an Israeli military position, setting it on fire".〔
