And in the context of these lyrics the phrase can be either positive ("it's all due to you") or negative "it's all because of you." The bumper sticker phrases alternate between right-wing and left-wing points of view. This phrase seems couched in the voice of the hard right which blamed Rabin for what it termed his "treachery." That's why I felt justified in translating "ha-kol biglalcha" as "it's all your fault." In poetry translation context is all.

I have one question about the translation on this site. The lyrics that I have state that the last line is "Everything for You, Friend" NOT "It's all your fault, Friend". I hope that you research further into this, because there is definatly a big difference. B'Shalom, Becky Age 13 Chicago I love Shirat HaSticker.
