Here’s a bit of info on Muslimgauze
Bryn Jones, who recorded dozens of CDs of experimental music under the name Muslimgauze, died on Jan. 14 in Manchester, England. He was 38.
The cause was pneumonia derived from a rare fungal infection in his bloodstream, said Geert-Jan Hobijn, who released Jones’ music on his Dutch record label, Staalplaat.
Muslimgauze occupied a strange place in the musical world. He was a powerful, prolific innovator, releasing albums that were alternately beautiful and visceral, full of ambient electronics, polyrhythmic drumming and all kinds of voices and sound effects. The recordings earned him a devoted following in underground, experimental and industrial music circles worldwide.
But the albums’ liner notes and titles were dogmatically pro-Palestinian, a rarity among Western musicians in general but especially unusual in one from Manchester who was not Muslim and had never visited the Middle East. Some said Jones was aiming for shock value, but those who knew him described him as a shy, mysterious man who was serious in his political beliefs and never wavered from his commitment to music.
He began making music in 1982, Jones said, as a response to Israel’s invasion of Lebanon. Each album was inspired by a political event, from massacres to peace accords. In the notes to albums like «United States of Islam,» Jones wrote that «support for the PLO has been a source of influence upon the music of Muslimgauze.»

Their aim, Jonathan1986, a free palestine is what I think he supported. Let's not forget that PLO appeasment stategy is a new strategy which started with the Oslo accords. Have you forgotten about Black September and first lebanese war?

Supporting both PLO and Hamas? It sounds like contradiction in terms as these organisations disagrees strongly in strategy.
