@AP @IsabelDeBre Is it a slow news day for you @IsabelDeBre?
@AP @IsabelDeBre An article published at the time - 'Sinead O’Connor cancels concert in Jerusalem after death threats' jta.org/1997/06/18/def… Itamar Ben-Gvir: “We certainly view the pressure we exerted so she wouldn’t come to Israel as successful”
@AP @SIfill_ @IsabelDeBre Sounds about right-wing.
@AP @IsabelDeBre Death threats. That's what they were.
@AP @oryxspioenkop @IsabelDeBre What are you trying to tell us?
