Years of pressure to boycott Israeli artists haven’t stopped Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood from returning to Israel and performing alongside Israeli musician Dudu Tassa.
The duo opened the 27th Jerusalem International Oud Festival with two sold-out performances of their collaborative album Jarak Qaribak, joined by 17 musicians from different backgrounds, including Israel and Iraq.
Despite his criticism of Israeli government policies, Greenwood continues to collaborate with Israeli artists rather than cutting cultural ties. As Tassa celebrated bringing together “friends from Israel, Baghdad, and England,” the performances offered a powerful example of artistic collaboration continuing despite political divisions.

Disturbing scenes of violence outside an Andrea Bocelli concert in Jakarta, Indonesia.
His supposed offense? Showing compassion to Israeli survivors of Hamas captivity.
Bocelli reached out to and met with two former hostages, 85-year-old Yaffa Adar and Segev Kalfon.
And this is how protesters respond?
Before the show, Indonesia’s Muslim council was pushing to cancel Bocelli’s shows over this. It’s deeply disturbing that a musician showing basic humanity and compassion toward Jewish and Israeli hostages could provoke such hostility.

A Eurovision legend is leaving Europe behind after facing rising antisemitism, death threats, and canceled performances.
Lenny Kuhr, the 76-year-old Dutch singer who won Eurovision in 1969, has officially made aliyah to Israel alongside her husband, Robert. After years of performing across Europe, including facing disruptions by pro-Palestinian activists, Kuhr has chosen to begin a new chapter closer to her children and grandchildren.
“I want to live in a country that I love,” she said upon arriving in Israel. Her story is a painful reflection of the growing hostility Jewish artists face in Europe, where even celebrated cultural icons are being made to feel unwelcome.
