Massive Attack have not performed (& will not perform) in Israel since the international request was made by Palestinian civic society & artistic institutions in 2002 (reiterated in 05 as BDS) as a form of non-violent pressure on Israel to end its brutal occupation of Palestine.

The band took a decision not to perform in Israel in 1999 - some years before the Palestinian call for international boycott was made - based on our own observations of military oppression, occupation & apartheid.

Jonathan Glazer is a filmmaker of the highest integrity, craft & bravery. A filmmaker who researches his subject matter painstakingly, & weighs his artistic judgements with high care & deep humanity. That care, judgement & humanity led to the conclusions of his speech. Solidarity

RIP Angelo 🤍
A singularly brilliant & eccentric talent. Impossible to quantify your contribution to the Massive Attack canon.
How lucky we were to share such a life together.

Pay the money back.
If I’m being honest, the public probably see me as a horrible person, a liar, or even a cheat.
But I am none of those things.
These last 2 years have taken a horrendous toll on me personally, and I want to clear my name.

‘I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism & war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality…. I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.’

The ‘extremist’ doesn’t march, chant or hold placards.
The ‘extremist’ systematically starves the most desperate people.
The ‘extremist’ bombs women & children in tents, or clamouring for flour.

The rabid dog of far right racism has been driven mad by his ‘owners’ - the plutocratic media in London & California who love the bark (& now the bite) that distracts from the abject failure of turbo-capitalism. This dark formula has been normalised by ‘mainstream’ politicians.
