Palestine - Music of the Intifada (1989)

In our post 9-11 world, one can’t imagine a major label issuing a (great) compilation called "Palestine: Music of the Intifada".
Yet in 1989 that’s exactly with Virgin Records did.

From the linernotes:

"Music of the Intifada is a popular celebration of the current struggle. It points out issues and symbols central to the Palestinian resistance such as the people, the land and freedom. Not only does it summarize Palestinian aspirations but also it reflects the radical social changes that are being brought about by the daily struggle against occupation."

The tracks in arabic language were recorded in 1988 in West Berlin.
