Answering you is the equivalent of validating you and your insults. Jews are not occupying "Palestine", but have been there for 5000 years, and there is no such thing as "Palestine", is all ISRAEL, deal with it fiercely homicide bomber!

Any Muslims ever die for American civil rights? Any Muslims that helped to finance the NAACP? No and no no.. Arab Muslims and African tribal chieftains began slavery and American Protestants ended it with our own bloody civil war that cost 600,000 American lives this excruciating war among ourselves to settle and establish the granting freedom to all men. This great American Civil war that ended the horrors of slavery and the history of what the Arab Muslims and African chieftains began. Not one bloody Muslim involved. Whose soul is in danger of G-ds wrath?

by coming here. I am really holding my breath on this one... But as many of Life's decisions, it may be left to MONEY to do the talking! we'll never know for sure I guess.

It is hoped this congratulations for Alicia Keys is not too early. Alice Walker’s stalking her with claims of Yisraeli apartheid leaves one wondering her sanity in light of the fact that not many people on this earth, including hers, are squeaky clean when it comes to racist activity. 225 million natives were exterminated just so she can sit there and point a crooked finger at others?

Music is for everyone, including the children of Israel. Unfortuntely, she's succumbed to racism and tries to poison other musicians. She hides her racism behind words like "global conscious artists" when she's really referring to like minded hateful lemmings who were easy to manipulate.

wow after hearing from the people spread their lies and their propaganda, the easy thing would have been to cancel Anyone who defies the propagandists definitely gets my respect

Miss Walker, What are your opinions regarding the slaughter of thousands of your people in Nigeria, Dem Republic of Congo, Somalia, Sudan, Mali, et. al by your own people.? You are an ignorant woman.

It amazes me when people are brainwashed to thinking israel is apartheid. Israeli arabs who give up trying to kill jews and actually benefit from what israel has to offer are free to get an education an integrate into society. Try going to any israeli hospital and see how many arab doctors are working there. Although there are isolated incidents of apartheid behavior, israelis shame themselves when this happens. The wall would be torn down as soon as people would stop trying to kill us....

Since you seem to be so concerned with the state of people's souls (a concept, which I personally find ludicrous), perhaps you might want to consider the possibility that your racist Jew -hatred is causing no less a luminary of the civil rights movement than the late Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King to turn over in his grave.

see Alica is coming to Israel. I am still not a fan, but am of her morals. Alice Walker, you are a racist in the biggest way, and you have no idea what apartheid is if you think Israel is that. Go read up on Hamas etc and get your facts right.

Ali you're here to stay as long as you behave as human beings,when you misbehave you will live in filth the rest of your lives with no future just misery.

Walker's puke-worthy letter led me to ascertain that she's a misinformed 'has been', clawing her way back into the limelight " by any means necessary ". Alicia has more class in one of her little toe nails.

Alicia once she sets her foot on Israeli soil. There may be (surely: ARE!) elements, that would like to make her stay here as unpleasant as possible, so as to vindicate the antisemites of Walker's ilk. That goes for our home grown, Leftist Judeo Quislings.

I love the Color Purple. A moving story and a great movie by Steven Spielberg. In no way whatsoever do I condone Alice Walker's actions against Alician Keys performing in Israel. I abhor this boycott like most others. Alice: You are simply wrong and completely off the mark. If anybody needs their eyes opened it is you.

Here we have an example of the inhumanity of the activist humanist crowd: almost every one of their terrorist tactics has been used against all peoples--who knows how many African American soldiers have been killed and crippled as a result while fighting in Iraq,etc---, and these terrorist animals have intentionally targeted women,children and civilians, and have sworn to destroy Israel And drive the Israel into the sea.Yet this woman can see her way to sympathize with them and to demand that Israel make it possible for these enemies to massacre and blow up all Israelis. Moreover, the PLOnicks are given the right to construct and to expand but of course not Israel..These are excellent examples of the category "pious idiots!.

I am so glad you didn't let those hate filled losers infuence your purpose of spreading peace and love. Go girl!!

What is your beef with Ms. Keys? I believe the article stated that she would not be cowed by Walker's demands. Then you attack her as though she has offended your sensibilities. (you cannot even spell her name correctly). You are like a drunk in a bar indiscriminately swinging at any target. Shmuck!

Alice Walker is a sadly ignorant and misinformed woman. Not because she may support the "liberation" of the Palestinians, not because of her feelings towards and concept of "human rights" but because of her complete lack of knowledge and understanding of the "Apartheid" concept. To call Israel an Apartheid State is ignorance and proves that there is no filter between her brain and mouth. She may have won a Pulitzer Prize, but I expect it was granted in sympathy to her, not because of any great works she has produced. To call Israel an Apartheid State is a slur on the memories of those who fought against apartheid in South Africa, against those innocent people who died in the struggle to liberate South Africa from the Afrikaner oppression, and to spit upon the graves of such great men as Govern Mbeki, Walter Sisulu, Chris Hani and so many others. It is making a mockery of all that Nelson Mandela stood and fought for, laughing at his 27 years of incarceration. Israel has NEVER practiced any of the "Apartheid" policies that were the foundation, cornerstone and operations of Aratheid, Israel has never racially segregated any member of it's nation, forced seperate living, schooling, development, entrance and use of facilities to another Israeli based on the colour of their skin or creed. Shame on you Alice Walker, you racist, bigoted, narrow-minded simpleton!

BDSers are not only despicable racists. They are also absolute idiots. They must truly believe Jews returned to our ancestral heartland after 2,000 years of persecution...only to cede it for entertainers. Our enemies are true cretins! Israel should be proud to have such enemies.

Walker is just another blind hater who blames Israel for all the evil in the Middle East. Just because one writes a book, movie, or play, it doesn't mean that they dont have prejudices. I'm happy that Alicia Keys is able to see beyond Ms Walker's racist stereotyping of Israel.

The reason their houses don't exist anymore is because you illegally demolished them!

Bleary, you should look up the meaning of apartheid-you are ignorant of what it is. Being pro-Palestinian can't be apartheid by definition.

Everyone else on here quotes 3500-4000 years of history. Where do you get 5,000 years from? Do you often exaggerate with numbers?

If the truth is slander, then sue me! I speak the truth the same as does Alice Walker. Get back into the mosh pit!
