What seems to confuse me is their reference to the Uzi, which was an Israeli made weapon and did not come into existence until 1954. So the reference "Uzis on the street corner" does not seem to fit here.

@rock100971 The song is about the rise neo-nazism in 80's Europe so the Uzi was around.

@rock100971 Very good point. I think he is talking about the invasion from Israel to Palestine territories, In jerusalem there there was Israeli soldiers with UZI in each corner. There was a silent war and the Heralds of the holocaust get silent

@rock100971 Very good point. I think he is talking about the invasion from Israel to Palestine territories, In jerusalem there there was Israeli soldiers with UZI in each corner. There was a silent war and the Heralds of the holocaust get silent. Neo Nazis never would use an Israeli weapon
