Action concerning Radiohead and Palestine.

I received this important email from PSC this morning. I urge you to comply with their suggestions. I know that a lot of Pop groups claim to be progressive but in fact they often are not. Sometimes it is just that they don't know anything!

"Dear friends,

We need your voice on social media! Radiohead are planning to cross the Palestinian picket line and entertain Israeli apartheid on July 19, 2017, helping Israel whitewash its oppression of Palestinians.

Today, Radiohead will headline Glastonbury, Europe’s largest festival. With your help and social media voice, fans will be on hand making sure the message gets through to Radiohead: Don’t endorse apartheid!

Negative publicity (https://twitter.com/PACBI/status/874919631319969792) has plagued Radiohead’s European tour (https://twitter.com/PACBI/status/877101731590664192) , where supporters of Palestinian rights have urged the band to cancel the show and respect the call from Palestinian civil society to boycott Israel until it respects Palestinian rights. In London, Radiohead’s corporate offices were picketed (http://pitchfork.com/news/pro-palestine-group-pickets-radioheads-accounting-office/) .
Today, can you tweet messages to @radiohead using the hashtags #Glastonbury2017 and #LoveRadioheadHateApartheid to tell them what you think about crossing the Palestinian picket line?

Here are some sample tweets:
* Don’t play apartheid Israel, @Radiohead. You don’t belong there.
* No one regrets boycotting Apartheid South Africa. @Radiohead, cancel Apartheid Israel.
* Don’t be a creep, @Radiohead. Respect the Palestinian picket line. Cancel Israel gig.
* It’s #NotOK, @Radiohead, to cross the Palestinian picket line. Cancel show in Apartheid Israel #OKNotOK
* Hey @Radiohead, if your support for justice isn’t “mere rhetoric”, you’ll cancel gig in Apartheid Israel
* Hey @Radiohead, during apartheid South Africa, artists stayed away. Time to do the same with Israel.
