HAMAS BANS MANY MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS AS UN-ISLAMIC

THIS REMINDS ME OF THE CHINESE CULTURAL REVOLUTION, WHEN MADAME MAO HAD TUBAS BANNED.

The BBC published an article about life in Gaza. (Elder of Ziyon) One of the interviews was very interesting:

I lead a group of 26 musicians - we play traditional Palestinian music. But for the last two months we haven't been able to work. This group, Hamas, believe they are the leaders of Islam. The violin, piano, flute, all these instruments are banned. Only the drum is allowed. They say any other instrument is not mentioned in the Koran. Hamas have already beaten one of my singers for singing for Fatah.

OF COURSE, AIRPLANES, ROCKETS AND GUNS AREN'T MENTIONED IN THE KORAN EITHER AND MUSLIMS HAVE NO PROBLEM USING THOSE.
