Last year architect Frank Gehry withdrew from the Museum of Tolerance project in Jerusalem, under pressure because the site was an ancient Muslim cemetery. Now Carlos Santana has canceled a June show in Israel under pressure not to perform in the society that produced Gaza. Ynet:
Guitarist Carlos Santana reportedly received messages that "it’s better" that he not perform in Israel, according to what a senior official in the Israeli music production market involved in producing Santana’s show told Yedioth Ahronoth… Sources in Israel’s music industry hope that Santana’s cancellation does not create a chain reaction.
