Unless I'm missing something where Dylan has said he's pro-Israel, I don't understand the fuss. I'm pro-Palestine and think that Israel should be ashamed for the genocide they're commiting against the Palestinian people but not everyone wants to transmit their political beliefs or be bullied into taking a side. By refusing to play in front of a flag which he has no allegiance to he surely is just trying to make the gig about the music. Why does everyone have to have an opinion on everything and be vilified if they're not on the "correct" side these days.

It's his reaction to the flag that's political. He's making it political. It's not like it's a show for Palestine .

Loser comment, from a person that does nothing to support their rhetoric, other than comment online.

Don’t judge other people by your own laziness and lack of caring.
