Perhaps they did not fully appreciate the implications of their actions. Much as Oppenheimer observed upon the completion if his life’s peak effort, perhaps the people truly did not know what it was.

I am become irk.

I’ve found radicale more stable in my implementation, but both are very good and are pretty similar to use.

If you already have NextCloud/OwnCloud it would be a good to use the Calendar that is already built in, but it doesn’t make sense to install those for a calendar when there are better options available.

Oh no! That is so scary. I hope that whoever it is doesn’t have decades of experience in working and traveling anonymously around the world while performing illegal acts of guerilla artwork while evading both the legal authorities and an adoring public fanbase!

Neither of those articles have anything to do with this. He is not immigrating to Belgium.

He was invited as a member of the Munich Philharmonic, then the invitation was rescinded because the organizers didn’t like the optics of a Jewish Israeli conducting at their festival. I personally find that problematic, and a standard that other artists are not held to, despite war crimes or atrocities committed by their Governments.

Yes, actually that’s fair. A German Philharmonic was canceled from a Belgian festival simply because the conductor is Israeli.

Based on the comments and vote, it seems that most people here think that is justified and appropriate.

It’s not sealioning. People are claiming that he refused to condemn genocide, despite nothing of the sort in the article. It is fair to ask someone to explain or defend something that they specifically claim is factual, which has no basis in reality.

I feel like maybe your confusion comes from the fact that you don’t realize over 20% of Israeli citizens are of Palestinian ethnicity.

In this particular case, he is not conducting as a representative of Israel or any Israeli organization. These acting as a representative of the Munich Philharmonic.

This is strictly about his national origin and ethnicity.

Please share because I’d like to learn. I can’t think of a single Chinese or Iranian artist who was banned from a performance or display in a European country.

The article says that he has previously spoken out in favor of peace and reconciliation. Did you read it?

Do you know of an example? I’m always open to learn.

What a disgusting statement, when someone who has spoken up for peace and reconciliation is banned from a European country based on the city where he was born and his ethnicity. It wouldn’t be right for someone from China, it wouldn’t be right for someone from Syria, it wouldn’t be right in ANY circumstance.

Yes, he is Jewish. That is his ethnicity. Feel free to look it up.

Where in the article does it say that he refused to condemn anything? It actually says that he has made statements in favor of peace and reconciliation.

Belgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prevot said the cancellation seemed “excessive. …We must not confuse the Jewish community and Israelis with Netanyahu’s policies,”

The German Culture Minister Wolfram Weimer criticized the move as a “disgrace for Europe. …Under the guise of supposed criticism of Israel, a cultural boycott is being carried out here,” he said in a statement.

It seems like you are on the attack and defame technique. Pretty hypocritical.

The article literally says that the concert was not canceled because of any of his statements or views. It was cancelled because he is a professional musician in Tel Aviv who is Jewish.

I ask you once again, if that’s not true, then what did he specifically say or do to warrant the cancellation?

He is literally Jewish.

I have never heard of this type of moral panic over a Palestinian Israeli, or a Druze Israeli for example. It doesn’t seem to be about just citizenship.

You are missing the point. When did he say that he doesn’t condemn genocide?

It seems that every Jewish person is now expected to pass an arbitrary moral purity test in order to participate in polite society.

Thank you. The original title was updated by BBC. Post now reflects the latest title.
