All I know is, on October 8th, when posters of kidnapped kids were being ripped off telephone poles all around the World, there’s a big problem.\u00a0 Lost dogs and cats posters are left up, but not Israeli kids.\u00a0 Those who point to the UN’s, practically, daily Anti-Israel resolutions seem to forget how many countries there are that were once Christian majorities and are now Muslim – can you say “colonizer”?.\u00a0 The Arab\/Israeli conflict is not a real estate problem, it’s a religion problem.\u00a0 That’s exactly why, “no Jews, no news”.\u00a0 I’m no Bibi fan, but if and when a secular center-left government is voted back in Israel (yes, I said voted) how much do you want to bet there will still be the same anti-Zionist fever raging.<\/p>\n

Bob; what a lot of your readers who keep citing the UN don\u2019t seem to get is that the UN is king of the Anti Israel\u2019s.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Israel has every right to defend itself which is exactly what it keeps doing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thanks for writing this. It\u2019s great to hear Boy George standing up for Israel and the Jews. Maybe he will inspire more artists to do the same.\u00a0??I never thought I\u2019d live in a world where Jews were coming under attack like this. The new hatred is so casual, it\u2019s disturbing. Almost like these people take for granted that Jews should be hated and despised.\u00a0??Now I have to drive under an overpass in Downtown LA last Sunday with a banner blatantly lying with text that says \u201cStop Israel from killing 81,000 children.\u201d And then I need to explain to my young daughter why this is the worst slander propagated by people who sympathize with the murderers and rapists of October 7.\u00a0??Keep fighting this fight. We don\u2019t agree on everything, but I\u2019m absolutely right there with you on this. It\u2019s too important.\u00a0??James Stockdale

Hi Bob – well he\u2019s pretty much shat the bed here in the UK – most folk I know here lump Netanyahu in with Trump as warmongering greedy old men who think nothing of killing innocent folk even if they are kids, ostensibly to cover up their own crimes of fraud or child rape – George is desperate for attention but he may and up regretting getting it. Anyone still defending warmongering on any side are the problem – lots of them on here so maybe no hope – the two sides should be those for peace v those for war, always had you down as a peacey.

Hi Bob,<\/p>\n
I was about to reply to your newletter with that chilling fact<\/p>\n
“J7 Report: 2025 Was the Deadliest Year for Antisemitic Attacks in the Diaspora in Over 30 Years”<\/p>\n
https:\/\/www.adl.org\/resources\/press-release\/j7-report-2025-was-deadliest-year-antisemitic-attacks-diaspora-over-30<\/p>\n
Those are cold hard facts – no debate needed. It’s not an opinion. It’s not an op-ed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This happened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Reading some of the replies, I was wondering : what the f….do they want?<\/p>\n
We will NOT go away. We will NOT be scared.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Much love Bob,<\/p>\n

Great song! Very brave of Boy George! Unlike most artists who would never say anything that would offend all the right people or risk \u00a0losing fans. Loved your comments!!! You might notice that all the pro Palestine comments will never dare mention Hamas! It\u2019s as if they don\u2019t exist!! <\/p>\n
What\u2019s that all about??

This.\u00a0??\u201c Cmon Bob, you know better than this. People who are pro Palestinian don\u2019t hate the individual Jew; they hate Bibi and his militaristic murder. The government, not the people.\u00a0??You\u2019re smart enough to know the difference.\u00a0?–?Paul Bordenkircher\u201d<\/p>\n

Flowing streams of thanks for sharing all of this and, most importantly, the video of the song(which I was completely unaware\u00a0of, sadly). It moved me to tears.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I’ll just share what I posted on Instagram after I followed your lead to go there:\u00a0\u00a0Never been a fan or even appreciator of his music all these years(though, respect his inner strength always being true to himself) BUT HERE…my deepest, most profound respect for standing so strong, courageously and effectively(through music!) for….(hear this clearly)…all the Jews of the world.\u00a0\u00a0This song, this stand, this strength…MATTERS.<\/p>\n

Thanks, Bob. I am astonished at the tin eared, uniformed reactions of the younger generations, as well as the short memories of my own friends. G-d bless you for pointing this stuff out.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I’ve never heard anyone say Jews are responsible for genocide because they are not.\u00a0 But, the country of Israel is.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Let’s just stop calling it a genocide if all the non-Israel jews are so concerned.\u00a0 Let’s just call it, A SH*T-TON OF DEAD PALASTINIAN WOMEN AND CHILDREN.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Waaaaay too many children dead or starving which I beleive is purposeful given the hatred that they suffer.<\/p>\n
Yep,\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thank you and Boy George for saying what is plain as day.?I had a friend in law school who told me (when I mentioned I might convert to Judaism) that even if I convert, I could never be a Jew. He likened it to becoming French. That stuck with me\u2014and despite having been married to a Jewish man for almost 40 years, I\u2019m no more Jewish than my cat is. But I have a sensibility that runs with \u2018right.\u2019 No other majority Muslim country welcomes Palestinians\u2014in fact, the Egyptians have a wall. Now, all Palestinians are not bad people; of course they aren\u2019t. Their innocents do not deserve to die. And a country whose innocents are attacked has every right to protect those who remain. Are the people who steal Palestinian farms and land wrong to do so? I\u2019d say \u2018yes.\u2019 There is nothing noble in this situation on either side. But the people crowing the loudest across the world in support of Palestine very clearly do not understand how daily life works under a Hamas regime. My heart breaks for the innocents, Bob.
\n?Thanks for sharing this song. I\u2019d not heard it.?

I very much suspect that this is also contributing to anti-semitism – doesn’t make it right:<\/p>\n
“We’ve been displaced from place to place, and now we have nowhere left to go,” says Umm Mohammed al-Shawish.\u00a0She is desperately searching for somewhere to live after Israel moved yellow concrete blocks that mark out where it controls in the Gaza Strip. Families living in al-Tuffah in northern Gaza woke on Monday to find the blocks had been moved westwards into the centre of Salah al-Din road, a key north-south route through Gaza.Nearby, an Israeli flag was flying on top of an earth barrier around 3m (10ft) tall.\u00a0The al-Shawish family home was destroyed during the war. On Sunday, they had to flee again after the Israeli military called to warn of an attack on a nearby building. Their only shelter was a tent, which was torn apart by the strike.\u00a0“We are going to die here,” Mohammed al-Shawish said. “Death is better than humiliation. No-one is standing with us.”\u00a0Under the terms of the US-brokered ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas last October, Israel agreed to withdraw its forces from across Gaza to a designated demarcation – the Yellow Line.<\/p>\n

There are a lot of knee-jerk responses here, Bob.\u00a0 People gobbling up the propaganda.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Over the years, despite being an “open air prison,” Palestinian Territories were still able to donate $12 Million to American universities.\u00a0 A paltry sum, of course, compared to the 7.6 BILLION DOLLARS donated by Qatar.\u00a0 Why are Arab countries donating so much money?\u00a0 For times like these, when they can call on their brainwashed minions to help them show the world how bad Israel is.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
https:\/\/jewishvirtuallibrary.org\/arab-funding-of-american-universities-donors-recipients-and-impact-update#_Toc206771334<\/p>\n
I find this passage quite disturbing:<\/p>\n
“Until 2020, the DoE did not report how universities used foreign gifts. Even today, most of that money remains shrouded in secrecy.\u00a0More than 70% of all contributions, worth almost $11 billion (73% of all Arab funding), have no description.<\/p>\n
“Nowhere is the opacity more troubling than in the case of Qatar, the single largest Arab donor. Out of 1,260 separate Qatari contributions, only 144 (11%) worth $1.7 billion list a purpose. That means\u00a0the American public\u2014and the U.S. government\u2014remain in the dark about how nearly $6 billion from a regime that funds Al Jazeera, hosts\u00a0Hamas\u00a0leadership, and bankrolls Islamist organizations globally is being used on U.S. campuses.”<\/p>\n
At this point, Israel has no choice but to defend itself, and it’s always harder to justify pre-emptive measures.\u00a0 But are they really “pre-emptive?” Because when you consider the amount of projectiles launched from Iran and proxies into Israel since October\u00a07th you would better understand that Israel is in a constant state of defense.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
