Elder of Ziyon
From Egyptian Streets:
First the haters try to get J. Lo. to boycott Israel.
BDS Egypt, part of the Boycott, Sanctions and Divestment movement against Israel, called for a boycott of Jennifer Lopez’s first concert in Egypt in New Alamein City in response to her recent gig in Israel, which she referred to as ‘mother land’ on her social media.
In an open letter to the organisers, BDS Egypt called for the show to be cancelled.
“This concert will take place after her previous concert in occupied Palestine days ago, which she insisted on carrying out despite many calls to boycott Israel and cancel the concert,” the group wrote.
In another post, the organization noted that the Egyptian company’s plans to organize the concert attempts to “normalize the Zionist enemy and those involved in supporting its crimes,” and that Lopez’s photos on social media “with occupied Palestine behind her” is “provocation.”
Though Jennifer Lopez refused to respond to calls to boycott Israel, BDS Egypt calls for every Egyptian to “boycott this concert in response to the previous positions of the American singer” and reject any “normalization attempts”.
They fail, miserably.
Now they are saying that any performace by her will result in "normalization" with Israel.
Apparently, Jennifer Lopez now has Zionist cooties. How else could her performance imply normalization with Israel?
Notice, however, that no one of the "human rights" community is calling on J. Lo. to cancel her concert in Egypt due to Egypt's poor human rights record.
For some reason, the "human rights" crowd only calls for artists to boycott one country.
By the way, the concert is this evening in New Alamein City in Egypt. The Egyptian BDSers did not choose their battle wisely.
