Radiohead comes under Palestinian fire

Radiohead comes under Palestinian fire

The sinister BDS is calling for ‘creative, peaceful pressure’ on the prog-rock group Radiohead to ‘convincingly distance itself’ from Israel.

The euphemisms here are insidious.

Radiohead’s creative force Johnny Greenwood is married to an Israeli artist, Sharona Katan, and lives in Italy. His children are being raised with an awareness of their Jewish heritage.

What does BDS want Greenwood to do – get divorced? disown his children? retune his Ondes Martenot to a Hamas frequency?
