(11.11.14)
are NEVER anitsemites (in their own feeble minds!)
2. anti Israel politics blablabla
tiki ,   belgium   (11.11.14)
Being 'anti Israeli politics means being 'pro palestinian politics = being pro terror, pro knifing, pro car killing, pro rockets, pro children cannon fodder, pro dictatorship but anti democracy, anti gay, anti women....and pro staying absolutely ignorant. I just wonder when Mr. Gabriel & his good doing friends are making a relief album for the 'poor suffering people of the West Sahara, North Korea, Kashmir, Tibet, Yazidis, Christians in Muslim countries etc.etc.etc. Mr. Gabriel should stay with his music and leave politics to the politicians and terror to the terrorists from "palestine & Gaza"
3. the smug and spoiled british
k ,   US   (11.11.14)
I hate them all and their accent, I wish they would stay in britian and get out of the US
4. Freedom
Jordan Ariel ,   USA   (11.11.14)
Well... That frees up space in my computer. Whenever one of these musicians come out of the woodwork and jump on the "I hate Israel" train, their albums are deleted, and boycotted without hesitation.
5. wouldn't it be nice
Golani ,   Vineland, USA   (11.11.14)
Wouldn't it be nice if they were to raise funds for Israeli border towns that are targeted by the terrorists or to rebuild buildings that were targeted and to help build bomb shelters to protect the real innocent people in this conflict.
6. !! If Only Gabriel Recognized Hamas
Ovadiah ben Avraham ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (11.11.14)
I'm a big fan of the music of Peter Gabriel and also Roger Waters. Their politics pains me considerably, of course. If they want to disagree with Israeli policy, fine. But they should also recognize the murderous governance of Hamas, Fatah, Hezbollah, etc. By omitting that, they become mere propagandists crossing over into antisemitism (Jewish Star on a pig, for example). Very, very sad.
7. How? If you don't have a voice anymore?

8. Interesting
Deborah ,   Jerusalem   (11.11.14)
Out of 200 countries only 22 were not being colonialized or raided by he's innocent england
9. Take notice of the (usual) surge of Gabriel's music being
(11.12.14)
played on the ostensibly "Israeli" radio. As in every case an antisemite artist makes similar announcement, our brave, independently thinking, progressive hosts find it particularly fitting to feature "davka" these creeps! Because: "Art is Art" bla-bla....no it's not!
10. British hypocrisy
Dante ,   Malibu,USA   (11.12.14)
One thing he forgot to own is his country responsibility and contribution to the middle east turmoil . This is one of the ugliest trait of the English culture, " we have done nothing wrong, we tried to help these poor uncultured people, we did our best"
11. PG is correct
Jerusalem, Israel   (11.12.14)
PG is absolutely correct. You need not be anti-Semitic or anti-Israel and in fact you can be pro-Israel, pro-Jewish and pro-Zionist and at the same time be against the outrageous Israeli Settler Government policy in the West Bank which is doing terrible damage and weakening the State of Israel on all fronts and harming the Jewish people both in Israel and abroad..
