On Monday, 13 December 2010, a flash mob hit a fundraiser for the American Israel Public Affairs Committee in Oakland, California, singing (to the tune of Pink Floyd’s “Another Brick in the Wall”):
We don’t need no bombs and sanctions . . .
Hey, AIPAC, leave Iran alone! . . .
All in all you’re just a brick in Israel’s wall
We don’t need your occupation . . .
No aid to Israel with our tax dollars
