BBC says it should have shut down Bob Vylan’s ‘death’ to Israeli army chants
The BBC has expressed regret for failing to pull a livestream of rap duo Bob Vylan’s performance at the Glastonbury Festival as the group led crowds of music fans in chants calling for “death” to Israel’s military.
The British broadcaster called the chants “anti-Semitic” and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said there was no excuse for such “appalling hate speech”.
The Israeli embassy in the UK said over the weekend that it’s “deeply disturbed by the inflammatory and hateful rhetoric expressed on stage at the Glastonbury Festival”.
In a statement posted on social media, singer Bobby Vylan said he’s been inundated with messages of both support and hatred. “Teaching our children to speak up for the change they want and need is the only way that we make this world a better place,” he wrote.
The IDF is comitting genocide and does not represent Judaism. Anti-semitism = hostility to or prejudice against Jewish people. To condemn people comitting genocide is not anti-semitic. The IDF does not represent Jewish people.

The BBC is however a racist institution defending genocide and deliberate starvation of 2 million people.
US revokes visas for Bob Vylan over Glastonbury chants
Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau says the US is revoking visas for the British punk-rap group Bob Vylan, which led a chant at the Glastonbury Festival calling for death to the Israeli army.
“[Washington] has revoked the US visas for the members of the Bob Vylan band in light of their hateful tirade at Glastonbury, including leading the crowd in death chants,” Landau said on X.
“Foreigners who glorify violence and hatred are not welcome visitors to our country.”
The Trump administration has aggressively revoked visas, mostly of students, over anti-Israel activism.
Bob Vylan, a London-based duo who combines punk riffs with a hip-hop delivery and whose lyrics often tackle racism, had dates to perform later this year in the US.
Nah only white people that glorify violence and hatred are welcome in the US.
