Pink Clarifies Israel-Palestine Views After Macklemore Repost Backlash
Pink has addressed criticism over a social media repost that appeared to support calls for Macklemore to be removed from Ed Sheeran’s tour because of his pro-Palestinian comments. The singer said she did not write all the words in the repost and would not have chosen every phrase used. She stressed that she does not speak for Israel or its government, while maintaining that Hamas is a terrorist organisation and that Palestinians deserve a humane and hopeful future. Pink said her main concern is the safety of Jewish people amid rising tensions. She added that opposing actions of the Israeli government should not translate into Jewish people being targeted or made to feel unsafe.
