the quran invented them? mmm you r saying your own prayer book invented them which kinda contradict your own prophet words, your pali litreture abuse your own religioun just to justify any acts and that includes mass murder.

You don;t have to believe everything you read. Elton John can read the Goldstone report, as far as I am concerned, but that also means he has to believe it anymore than say, The Arabian Nights fantasy tales.

But to remain fair, he then has to read Alice's Adventures Through the Looking Glass. Then Gulliver's travels and finally his own report. Three pieces of fantastical stories, yarns and out and out lies.

what about the killing othe palistinians of each other let alone the israelis they have been comotting crimes for years world does not bocot them it is such a double standered it is sick

Better yet, don't cancel the Israel visit, but schedule a performance in Gaza. Their reaction to Elton John would be an eye opener indeed.

Way-way back in history - Ancient History - when Israel was founded -- European Whites were fighting among themselves. They did not have the skill, or the inclination to conquer Israel. They were too busy trying to conquer their own lands. Does King David ring a bell? How about King Saul - Moses, Joshua?? These people were European Whites?! Please give me some references by scholars I've obviously never read. Seriously. I enjoy studying the Bible and Biblical History. I've never read anywhere that any of the people I mentioned were Europeans. Please - references of - what must be newly discovered ancient writings stating that Joshua-Saul-David, etc. were European Whites!! Question - Do you know when, and by which group, Israel was first referred to as Palestine? Do you know who was living in Israel - Palestine when it was first called Palestine? Do you know when the world first started to hear about a people called Palestinians? (Clue - it was sometime in the last century.)

I always thought that we all descended from Adam and Eve!... Which makes us all cousins, whether we are black, yellow or white; Christian, Muslim, Jewish or whatever. The "Holy Land" will be at peace, when the incomers learn how to live with the natives as equals, not superiors.

The UK has the audacity to call Israel an occupation or a country that breaks international law. This criticism from the UK with its disgraceful history of colonialism, exploitation, abuse, and murder of native people ---blackbirding from the UK took African slaves and over 80,000 people from the South Pacific to work as slaves in Australia, New Zealand, South America. Most died without ever seeing their families again, while aristocracy from the UK accumulated great wealth while creating great tragedy. Lovely names like "Sandmonkey" applied to Arabs and even worse ones applied to the Jewish people. The academics need to review history to identify what REAL abuse is and to recognize that their current efforts to slam Israel is no more than hatred and disdain for the Jewish people. They should be ashamed. The history of the British presence in the Middle East is shameful.
