The "I have no other land" line is a musical quote from a famous patriotic/protest Israeli song by soul/rocker Korin Alal.

Written earlier, this was taken up as an anti-Oslo protest song.

Words:
I have no other country
Even if my land is burning
Just one Hebrew word penetrates
Deep to my veins, to my soul
My Body sore, my hungry heart
Here is my home

I won't be silent although my land
changed her face
I won't release her,
I will Remind her,
Sing in her ears
Til she open her eyes
