This is the Israeli Left. What planet do they inhabit. "She also will sing songs about the poor way Israel sometimes treats its migrant workers from Eastern Europe, Asia and Africa." How humane. How progressive. How leftist of her. And I am sure that the audience will clap and awe when she mentions how Israeli SOMETIMES treats its migrant workers from East Europe, Asia, and Africa. But in other times, Israel treats them well. As for the Arabs in Israel? Who are those? She has never heard of them. She is singing in my home town here, and had I known that she is coming to town, I would have met her at the airport with...shoes. (As is known, shoes are inoffensive in Western culture).
