Death Threats Against a Young Israeli Musician By the Organizers of the “Peace Flotilla” to Gaza…Peace?…I Don’t think So
Written by Marty Roberts on June 12, 2011 – 4:13 pm -If any of you are still deluding yourselves that the “flotillas” coming with the “humanitarian” mission to break Israel’s blockade of the terrorists in Gaza have anything whatsoever to do with peace…
Please, think again…
Death threats against an Israeli musician by the organizers of the latest flotilla?
Can this have ANYTHING whatsoever to do with peace?
Can anybody involved with these violent assaults on international law and Israel’s sovereignty truly call themselves a “peace activist”?
I don’t think so…
Israeli musician cancels Istanbul concert
Death threats, allegedly from flotilla-organizing IHH, lead Yuval Ron to cancel performance in Turkey.
Reprinted from jpost.com
Death threats, allegedly from the Turkish NGO that helped organize the 2010 Gaza protest flotilla, led to the cancellation of a concert in Istanbul by Oscar-winning Israeli musician Yuval Ron, Turkish newspaper Hurriyet reported on Friday.The IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation has denied making the threats, but confirmed that it did oppose the holding of the concert.
Ron, the leader of a musical ensemble that includes Muslim, Jewish and Christian artists, told Hurriyet on Friday, “I am very sorry, I had to cancel the concert because of the safety of my team members.
The cancellation of the concert will harm Turkey’s image in the world. But I want to return to Turkey and realize this concert [in the future],” said Ron, who won the 2007 Academy Award for Short Film for writing the music for West Bank Story.
The concert, which was scheduled for Thursday night in Istanbul’s Sultanahmet neighborhood, was canceled it because of threats from IHH, Hurriyet reported.

The American people have always overwhelmingly supported one of their closest allies, Israel, but, all too often, American government policy does not seem to bear this out…
Two cases in point recently were highlighted in the media…
The FBI’s unfounded pursuit and subsequent failed prosecution of AIPAC’s Steve Rosen…
And then there’s Condoleeza Rice’s massive espionage campaign against Israel…
How can this be?
Then, there’s the granddaddy of them all…Jonathan Pollard…Imprisoned for 25 years…Time to let him go…
Also…Israeli cuisine reaches new peaks as Chef Brueh retires in Tel Aviv, accompanied by world-renowned Gorden Ramsay protege Shinya Maeda from Japan…
And…Yeshiva Rabbis ban the new plague…cellular telephones…

When my wife pointed out that the new joy of my life, my Amazon Kindle, would not exist were it not for Israeli technology, I began to think…
Just what else would the world be missing were it not for the existence of the 100th smallest country in the world…the country that the world loves to hate…Israel…
The results were mind-boggling, even to me, who already loves the Jewish State…
Medicine, biotechnology, agriculture, communications, security, and, of course, computers…
You won’t believe just how much the world would be lacking were it not for the existence of the modern State of Israel…
