HATE MONGERS : BDS calls on Rolling Stones to cancel plans for Israel- But they're wasting their time because the Stones are legends not to be intimidated by cretins

Facebook page calls on legendary British rockers to boycott Israel "due to the state's crimes against humanity." But the stones are legendary and will not be intimidated by wasters and liars.


The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement wasted little time in trying to convince legendary British rockers The Rolling Stones to cancel their plans to perform in Israel for the first time.

Just days after The Jerusalem Post broke the story that the Stones were closing in on a June 10 show at Ramat Gan Stadium, the BDS movement opened a Facebook page Wednesday, calling on the band to cancel their plans to play in Israel "due to the state's crimes against humanity."

"This page has been under attack by unskilled Mossad-paid script-kiddies. They've been neutralized. Now it is time to bring the Zionist regime to it's knees, be it by stones or with a swift kick to the wallet. Don't bother, Rolling Stones. Israel will probably not exist come June."A Thursday post on the Facebook page claimed that pro-Israel hackers had unsuccessfully attempted to take down the site.

A previous BDS efforts failed to stop R&B singerAlicia Keys from performing in Israel last year.

The Jerusalem Post quoted a source as saying on Monday that the Rolling Stones show will probably be promoted by Shuki Weiss, who has been involved with many of the top international performances of recent years including the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Madonna, Depeche Mode and Metallica  and  who represents all LiveNation concerts and events in Israel.

The Stones, led by iconic front man Mick Jagger and prototypical guitar god Keith Richards, emerged alongside The Beatles in the early 1960s to become one of the most successful groups in rock & roll history, with hits ranging from “Satisfaction” in 1965 to “Honky Tonk Women” in 1969 and “Miss You” in 1978.

Since their acclaimed 1981 album Tattoo You, the band has not been very impressive in the studio, but instead has relied on its potent live shows to fill stadiums and arenas around the world.

After a few years of inactivity, the band returned with a vengeance at the end of 2012, for their 50th anniversary, and toured extensively throughout 2013.

In December, the Stones’ bass player Darryl Jones visited Israel and performed with the Australian- based hard rockers Dead Daisies at a sold-out show at the Barby Club in Tel Aviv.
