Koolulam | Like A prayer - Madonna | Bring Them Home, NOW
Музыка
Koolulam led an international musical project advocating for the return of the hundreds of
abducted civilians currently being held in Gaza by Hamas. Our loved ones.
More than 100 locations around the world took part in this urgent call.
The song for this project was chosen by Tamar Forti, who lost her brother, Nir at the Nova peace party. As Madonna's fan, she found comfort in this song's lyrics and asked Koolulam leaders to use it to raise awareness for the hostage situation.
The special video was produced in collaboration with The Cameri Theatre of Tel Aviv and the families of the abducted and missing forum to raise awareness for the hostage situation worldwide.

Months on and I still can't stop listening and crying to this! SO powerful. BRING THEM HOME NOW!
Such a beautiful and touching song. I’m Korean-Canadian and I stand with Israel 🇮🇱 I know that South Korea (where I’m originally from) might end up in Israel’s shoes in the future due to bad tensions with North Korea. So I thought, I should stand with Israel because one day Israel might be standing with South Korea in the future if that happens in Korea. Am Yisrael Chai!

Soy española y me da mucha tristeza q mi país no esté en este hermoso video, En nombre de muchos españoles q sentimos el dolor q está padeciendo el pueblo de Israel decirles q estamos con ellos, oramos al gran YO SOY para q todos los secuestrados aparezcan y se puedan reunir con sus familias. Amamos a Israel, el Eterno les de fuerza y los bendiga.
Любовь и сила Израилю! Мы с вами!!❤❤❤
