Re: Radiohead performance in Israel...

[Hal Musazlioglu]

I have never EVER been so disappointed with Radiohead: they publicly voiced their criticism, then did NOT perform for South Africa under their racist Apartheid regime, yet they seemingly promote the racist Apartheid regime of Israel - what's going on?  

Have a read, more and more newspaper ask the same question:

The whole point of a cultural boycott, is to tell a regime: 'No, we will not show approval for your undemocratic/racist policies with our performance in your country.'

This is Israel of today:
