[follow up] Punk duo Bob Vylan has been banned from entering the US.
US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau, who has Jewish heritage, stated that the decision to cancel the band’s US tour follows their “hate speech” during a performance. The band’s tour, which was planned for later this year, has been canceled. The comments have been criticized by Glastonbury, the BBC, the Prime Minister, and Israel’s UK embassy.

Reminder, if needed: Bob Vylan’s chants of “Free Palestine” and “Death to the IDF” at Glastonbury triggered immediate government investigations, visa bans, BBC inquiries, and widespread condemnation from officials including the Prime Minister and Culture Secretary. Meanwhile, the documented destruction in #Gaza - with tens of thousands killed, widespread displacement, and infrastructure systematically destroyed by the very same #IDF - receives far less urgent governmental response or calls for accountability.
According to expert analysis the IDF has killed more than 75,000 people in Gaza up to January 2025. https://kolektiva.social/@oatmeal/114760686420222393
Israel daily newspaper #Haaretz reported recently that IDF soldiers deliberately fire at Palestinians seeking aid at distribution sites. https://kolektiva.social/@oatmeal/114754971997483954
