USEFUL IDIOT BARENBOIM AIDING ARABS WHO WOULD DESTROY ISRAEL

NYTIMES:

Maestro Daniel Barenboim brought his troupe of young Arab and Israeli classical musicians to Geneva on Friday for a concert dedicated to the late Palestinian-American academic Edward Said and the contentious choice of Jerusalem as this year's ''Arab Cultural Capital.''

In a news conference that featured the iconoclastic Israeli conductor's usual combination of humor and gravitas, art and politics, Barenboim said his West-Eastern Divan Orchestra offered another way of examining ideals of justice, humaneness and understanding that are often lacking in the Middle East conflict.

The 10-year-old orchestra founded by Barenboim and Said includes Israeli and Palestinian musicians, as well as performers from Arab countries such as Syria, Lebanon and Jordan, and non-Arab states Turkey and Iran.

Barenboim said it was fitting that such a diverse group celebrate the Arab League's naming of Jerusalem as a cultural capital, even if the choice has angered Israeli authorities who say the entire city is the Jewish state's undivided and eternal capital.

... In 2006, the Arab League quietly designated Jerusalem its 2009 ''Arab Cultural Capital,'' an honor that rotates among Arab countries. Winners typically use the occasion to showcase their attachment to Arab culture, sponsoring poetry, music, dance performances, lectures, school activities and sporting events.

UNREAL:

A CONCERT DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF EDDIE SAYEED - A LYING ARAB PROPAGANDIST (AND OBAMA MENTOR)!

AND HELD IN JERUSALEM AS IF IT WAS AN ARAB CAPITAL.

DISGUSTING.
