The government has “strongly condemned” chants at Glastonbury Festival from rap punk duo Bob Vylan calling for “death” to the Israeli military and broadcast live on the BBC.
Rapper Bobby Vylan led chants of “free, free Palestine” and “death, death to the IDF [Israel Defense Forces]” during their set, which came just before Belfast rap trio Kneecap.
A BBC spokesperson said some of the comments were “deeply offensive”, adding it had issued a warning on screen about “very strong and discriminatory language”. The set will not be available to rewatch on BBC iPlayer.
Police said they were reviewing videos of comments made by Bob Vylan and Kneecap to decide whether any offences had been committed.
Hey col, let’s sprinkle in some real antisemitism. Unbelievable.
There is something going on though right?
There absolutely must be Zionist Jews in influential positions in American and probably the UK who have the interest of Israel above the interest of their country. There is loads of funding for pro Israel groups.
The whole antisemitic propaganda thrown at Labour is real questionable.
Pro Israel groups have been caught rewriting history on Wikipedia.
Without being able to talk about it how do we know what’s real and what’s a conspiracy?
Like just talking about things that are true isn’t wrong. The whole banking system is too much. But what is right?
Ridiculous, there is no need to invent a conspiracy. Isreal and the UK have aligned economic and military interests. There is no jewish shadow banking syndicate pulling the strings, there simply an understanding that the UK benefits from a state like Israel existing in the middle east and that if it didn’t exist the UK’s ability to project military force would be worse off and UK businesses would be worse off.
Rich people just love Fascism and here’s an ethno-Fascist nation for some of them, claiming that their ethnicity makes them superior to everybody else, so of course they’ll tend to support them.
It’s not at all surprising that the moneyed elites amongst the Jewish People would side with a regime that says they’re inherently superior, same as the German elites sided with the Nazis. I mean, back in early Nazi times even the British moneyed elites were very drawn to Nazism and its ideas of racial superiority (there’s even a photo of young princess Elizabeth being taught by her uncle - the then King - how to do a Nazi salute) up until the point Germany actually invaded Poland.
You see the very wealthy supporting supremacists of their ethnicity all throughout History, no “conspiracy” necessary.
Historically, quite independently of ethnicity you’ll find it’s the well educated middle classes that most resist the pull of chauvinism, and that seems to be exactly what we’re seeing amongst the Jewish People now that the self-proclaimed representative of them all as full revealed itself as a Genocidal project.
I didnt say there was a shadow banking industry, in fact I said the opposite.
Completely missed my point.
Then better stop the genocide before antisemitism gets normalized. It will increase the longer this continues.
How does banking factor into the genocide in gaza, or did you just reach for whatever jewish stereotype came to mind first?
It’s extremely easy to criticize Israel without being anti-Semitic and yet you failed spectacularly and have shown zero self reflection after getting correctly called out on it. Pathetic.
What streotype did he use?
Oh, I’m not criticizing Israel. That’s a done conclusion. I’m questioning why politicians in other countries go along with this. As far as I can see, and that’s clearly shown, there’s very good lobbying, information campaigns and lots of money. Even the Eurovision contest was full of money and influencing. I’m assuming influence alone can’t do this, certainly not after protests. That leaves money. Who has a lot of money, meaning trillions, and reason to use it as leverage? Certain banks. Of course that’s forbidden to say, but that omerta thing going on is now part of the stereotype.
With the way the leader of Israel was killing journalists. It really did make the Jews control the media conspiracy, actually true, pretty funny if you think about it. But yes, that statement did have the airs of racism
