The Rise Of Anti-Semitism Continues Unabated

Now a Jewish artist cannot perform at a music festival unless he proves he's the "right kind of Jew." -
Jewish groups protest as Spain festival drops US singer

Jewish groups have criticised a Spanish festival for cancelling an appearance by a Jewish-American singer because he refused to air his political views. 

Matisyahu, a reggae singer, had been due to appear at the Rototom Sunsplash near Valencia on 22 August. 

But he says he was asked by organisers to state his "positions on Zionism and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict". 

In a post on his Facebook page, Matisyahu said the pressure to air his views was "appalling and offensive". 

A campaign to cancel Matisyahu's appearance was launched by the Valencia branch of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign.... 

"The festival kept insisting that I clarify my personal views; which felt like clear pressure to agree with the BDS political agenda," Matisyahu - whose real name is Matthew Miller - wrote on his Facebook page. 

"Honestly it was appalling and offensive, that as the one publicly Jewish-American artist scheduled for the festival they were trying to coerce me into political statements." 

The singer, born in Pennsylvania, said he did not insert politics into his music, and that he wanted it to be accessible to all.

What is equally disgusting is the only groups complaining about this are Jewish ones.

Sadly, I was sort of expecting this kind of Spanish Inquisition.
