Police are already investigating them and Kneecap on the (Israeli) government’s demand.
The state is gonna double down on the crackdowns and hope the lack of a venue for expression on this scale will help – (they’re already writing the Palestine Action proscription to be a backdoor for banning any pro-Palestinian imagery or speech if they want) – but anti-Israel sentiment has broken containment from just lefties and critical news watchers. I had older relatives message me this weekend saying that Israel “needs to stay out of our fucking business” and that if the government has a problem with people “saying stuff like this maybe they should just stop helping kill innocent people”.
Bob Vylan have always been top drawer so this was the least surprising thing ever, but very cool to see them getting the attention they deserve from music fans.
