		<description>Thank you.

With respect - asthetics you have to consider is the outcome of politics. It is not accidental or whimsical that tyrants always attack the intellectuals of a nation first when rising to power. It is essentail for them because the intellectual is the conveyor belt between the philospher and the people.

So when a performer refuses to distinguish between those who defend themselves and those that attack, he is showing moral equivalence and undermining the philosphical foundation upon which the free nation, Israel, stands.

At this time especially, when Israel is not only attacked in the mid-east but is being compartmentalized as a criminal state in the European courts and the United States led by Obama stands by and does nothing, then everything IS political.</description>

		<description>[Witnessing 50,000 Palestinians singing “Hallelujah” and applauding efforts for reconciliation would have been a real New Year gift for all of us.]

What is it that you people don&#039;t get? Can you not get it around your minds that the Arabs HATE Israel and they will never accept it?

And if you have a sing along you pretend that it would be wonderful? This is American kumbaya style emotionalist nonsense.

In New York City  I have Palestinian acquaintances who matter of factly state quite openly that Israel is occupying their land and that if they could they would destroy it.

I answer back anytine we have that sort of discussion that they will fail as they have done and they will condemn themselves to live in a state of permament war.

Well, they do not care because unlike liberal Jews they understand the situation.

And of course the other conundrum is HOW can American Jews support not only the Dems, but Obama and any liberal because it is these entities that today are the anti-Isarel movement?!

In the next 18 months when it is planned I return to Israel permanently I will return never being able to understand the liberal Jewish American.</description>

		<description>Nice post. But I disagree with having the crowd be half Arab, since it is a Jewish state after all - a society that longs to live independently. This concert is about entertainment, and every artist that comes to Israel does not need to turn their show into a political event.</description>
