Thought I would put a little work into your question; I checked a random musician from this list and looked for recent news. They’ve literally been doing charity shows to get support for gaza.

It seems like some groups of people in israel feel there is an emergency that cannot be ignored; and some who do not.

nitpick: they were banned not from a country, but from a music hall; no?

kinda one time at least: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apology_Resolution

(If I understand you correctly. I rather hope there are other examples, it would be a weird thing for America to lead the world in.)

I personally don’t understand the logic of this symbolic act of protest, but I often don’t understand how protest is supposed to function. It did pull more attention towards gaza, and attention is everything.

Would a better protest be to keep the invite, but plaster the space with material about the genocide? Let the person quit if this offends them (which would probably be a more sympathetic headline and just as newsworthy) and make a story out of the performance if they don’t (which should be very photogenic).

whoa that’s amazing. Jellyfin does everything.

I really appreciate the work that AP news does. Good communication and reliable reporting.

I wish, in my heart of hearts, they would link the primary sources when they are online and publicly available. As far as I can tell, UN documentation on these abuses are mostly covered here: https://docs.un.org/en/A/HRC/59/26 (And committee page more broadly is here: https://www.ohchr.org/en/hr-bodies/hrc/co-israel/index , I think Israel is responding to their more recent report, or something near it.)

(I’m not terribly well informed, do let me know of better sources.)

This is making a classic media literacy mistake.

The argument being made is that we can disregard the source if the thing that the headline is about is a real phenomena, regardless of if the actual anecdote is true. I don’t think you can ever disregard the source; we should always ask who told this story and why.

Also, OP definitely made a choice providing this url instead of another. Sensationalist headline? Mistake on their part? Lack of English language alternative?
