In July, the top eight singers will perform in Fouad Chehab Stadium in Jounieh, Lebanon.
You can predict what happens next.
Al Manar, which is associated with Hezbollah, published a plea to not allow Haddad to "desecrate" Lebanon with his presence.
The article says that he was a soldier in the IDF, and sarcastically adds, "As you know, the service in the army is one of the necessities of beautiful music and peace among human beings ... especially between Israelis on the one hand, and the Palestinians and the Lebanese on the other hand!"
Anyway, this will be an interesting test to see whether the producers cave to Islamic fundamentalists who cannot stomach the idea of an Israeli stepping foot in Arab land - because of their concern for human rights, you know.
