One Million Voices To End The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
Probably not the Jericho concert got cancelled due to the Islamist threats! Without Jericho there is no reason to have a concert in Tel Aviv!
Tel Aviv peace concert cancelled | Jerusalem Post Quote:
Lubetzky called the situation a "sobering sincere setback," and conceded that the group's plans had been "derailed by extremists' agenda."
The original decision to nix the Jericho concert came after Palestinian participants were threatened.
"For security reasons we cannot have the concert at this time," Nisreen Shahin, Executive Director of One Voice Palestine said on Friday.
Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas issued a statement late Thursday distancing himself from the planned event, and emphasizing that his office had no connection to the concert.
The Jericho event had previously drawn criticism from a small Palestinian terror organization, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, for its attempt to normalize ties with Israel.
A Palestinian Internet posting had threatened to "wipe out" the Palestinian offices of the organization, a group spokeswoman said.
