I'm usually not in favour of posting YouTube links in Hackernews threads, but I don't think there's been a more appropriate time to link to this [0].
Care to summarize the link for those of us who cannot open YouTube currently?

Upon seeing the name of the comedian, I wasn’t planning on watching, as I’d previously found his humor more baffling than funny. But, the title of the song piqued my interest, “Peace anthem for Palestine”, so I watched in entirety and include below my complete summary.
Tim Minchin, comedian pianist, is going to share a song he hopes will be a seed for peace (first 2 and 1/2 minutes), the lyrics are “You don’t eat pigs, we don’t eat pigs, why not not eat pigs together ... ... pigs.” (last 2 and 1/2 minutes)
The audience laughs and sings along. I liked the song but the laugh timing, particular when he was playing music but not speaking, made me feel as if there was an in joke I was very far outside of.
I wish the world had more people like you... I suspect there will be less wars.
