Camden New Journal - LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Published: 7 May 2009
 
Macabre army show

• I WAS one of the protesters last Wednesday outside Dingwalls, the Camden venue hired by the Zionist Federation to showcase singing members of the Israeli army (Anger over Israeli army’s ‘show’, April 30).
I congratulate the Bloomsbury Theatre for refusing to host such a macabre performance.
Dingwalls had no such decency. Nor did Artsdepot in Finchley, which agreed to offer its venue in replacement when the Bloomsbury Theatre pulled out. The Artsdepot management assured anti-war protesters that no member of the Israeli military would be allowed to perform. Surprise surprise, as reported by the Jewish Chronicle, those very same Israeli soldiers performed at the Artsdepot in uniform “to thunderous applause”.
I wonder if a thought was spared for Palestinian children killed by phosphorus bombs.
LUCA SALICE,
Mansfield Road, NW3
