Fw: Music and Politics for Jews

[david lowther <dlowther...>]

Okay, so this is related to music so it's on the site.  Now, if I respond, my 
statements will be political more than musical (and believe me, I have an 
opinion about this!), so I guess I can't discuss them here.  Nevertheless, 
Michal makes a point for one side of the issue - should it be left 
unchallenged, and is it appropriate for him to make these comments if we can't 
discuss them because they stray off-topic, musically?

Two declarations recently heard in Geneva (translated from French):

"I'll come to your next concert, but not to please Ariel Sahron"
and
"Your music is nice. So why do you kill Palestinian children?"

Just wanted to share that with you all...
