During the set of Irish rap group Kneecap at the US Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, the crowd erupted with chants of “Free Palestine.”
Attendee Eyal Yakoby noted the irony of a music festival crowd expressing support for Hamas, whose October 7 massacre was largely carried out at a music festival.
The crowd at Kneecap’s Coachella show cheered for Hamas.
Now imagine Hamas invading Coachella—raping, torturing, and murdering hundreds. That’s exactly what happened at Nova. That’s what they’re applauding.
