During Bob Vylan’s performance at Glastonbury, the vocalist delivered inflammatory chants, including “Death, death to the IDF,” and “From the river to the sea, Palestine must be, will be, Inshallah, it will be free.” These statements prompted many audience members to cheer and repeat the offensive slogans, effectively calling for violence. The performance was broadcast live by the BBC and widely shared on social media.
Despite efforts to remain anonymous, GnasherJew revealed the identity of the singer as Pascal Robinson-Foster, a director and owner of two companies: Ghost Theatre Ltd and Lavy Hill Ltd.
We believe that calling for violence or the death of individuals, including soldiers, can be considered illegal under laws related to incitement to violence and hate speech. Bob Vylan has been reported to the Avon and Somerset Police, and we urge you to do the same.
