This clip is a compilation of kindergarten graduation ceremonies that took place in Tulkarm in the West Bank in the summer of 2016. The ceremonies were aired on the Tulkarm-based Al-Salam TV.
At a June 3, 2016, ceremony at the Flowers of Palestine kindergarten, children performed a skit to a poem with the lyrics: "I am Al-Aqsa… I am looking for someone to help me... Your silence is more dangerous to me than the tunnels that run underneath me. If not for your silence, the occupiers would not have dared to storm and defile me." The skit involved children standing before a child who lay on the ground and pretended to have been killed, while other children pretended to be Israeli soldiers with guns. The sound of gunfire was played on the speakers, and a song started playing, with the lyrics: "We will not leave the Al-Aqsa Mosque, even if one million of us are wounded [or] if millions of us are martyred."
At a May 29 ceremony at the Al-Aqsa kindergarten, children marched and crawled with toy guns to a song with the lyrics: "We will continue to make sacrifices until our last breath. Jerusalem is not for sale... The [Jewish] Temple will never be erected."
At a ceremony on the same day at the Al-Firdaus kindergarten, children wearing camouflage uniforms marched with toy guns to the same song. The children also pretended to shoot their guns from a prone position.
At a May 30 ceremony at the Zuhur Shweika kindergarten, children wore yellow Fatah headbands and carried toy guns as they pretended to march, run, and crouch with their weapons. Some of the children also performed somersaults, imitating acrobatic performances made by terror groups.
