Pop Singer Lorde succumbs to hatred, boycotts Israel and we need to tell her what we think of her.
Ms. Lorde,
I am a Jewess and a freelance journalist who is most supportive of Israel. I am intrigued by the fact that you cancelled your upcoming concert, planned to be in Tel Aviv, a jovial city in one of the most flourishing democratic countries in the world, Israel.
I am also a think through person. In being such person, in my opinion, before someone like you cancels a profitable performance, based on hearsay and just plain IGNORANCE, such person needs help.
Therefore, I am here to give you an idea, an advice. Next time and before you are going to commit a senseless act, go VISIT the place and speak with the people. In this case, it would be Israeli-Jews and Israeli-Arabs, alike. Only then you should form an opinion –whatever that opinion is - and make your wise and sane decision. Had you done so, you would have NEVER cancelled your appearance in Israel. Now you lost scores of fans.
I believe that on March 14. 2018, you will be appearing at the Staples Center, Los Angeles, California. I am here to inform you that it is my highest duty to make sure that as many people as possible know about your senseless, cowardice, pathetic, lacking all moral compass and foolish business decision to have joined the ranks of the BDS, a ’PR’ terror movement its ultimate goal is the subvert or destroy Israel. But allow me also to add that the BDS is not doing that well. Joining the BDS movement though makes you a collaborator with Nazi propagandists, deliberately ill-informed fools who are anti-Israel and anti-Semites. In the long run you will chew the cud, but it is already too late. Millions of people will end being your fans.
Since you are so ill informed, the State of California has anti-BDS laws and since you have just joined the BDS ranks, your appearance in California should be investigated to the full extent of the law. Something to consider.
