+<br>Asked about the Israel embassy's action to the chants at Glastonbury, he said: "Well, I 'd say sort of 2 things in action to those words from the Israeli embassy. Firstly, I do think that if I take the equivalent of the war in Ukraine, I'm unquestionable about which side of that war I'm on. I desire Ukraine to win. Would I be celebrating or shouting for the death of Russian soldiers? No, I wish to see an end to the war, and I wish to see an end to the conflict.<br>
+<br>"I 'd also state to the Israeli embassy, get your own house in order in regards to the conduct of your own residents and the settlers in the West Bank.

+<br>"However, we are horrified by the statements made from the West Holts stage by Bob Vylan yesterday.<br>
+<br>"Their chants quite [crossed](https://career.cihpng.org/) a line and we are urgently advising everybody  in the production of the celebration that there is no place at Glastonbury for antisemitism, hate speech or incitement to violence."<br>[health.com](https://www.health.com/)

+<br>The Israeli embassy said it was "deeply interrupted by the inflammatory and hateful rhetoric revealed on phase at the Glastonbury celebration".<br>
+<br>A statement on X said: "Freedom of expression is a cornerstone of democracy. But when speech crosses into incitement, hatred, and advocacy of ethnic cleansing, it should be called out - specifically when amplified by public figures on prominent platforms.<br>
+<br>"Chants such as 'Death to the IDF,' and 'From the river to the sea' are mottos that promote for the taking apart of the state of Israel and implicitly require the elimination of Jewish self-determination. When such messages are provided before tens of countless festivalgoers and met applause, it raises severe concerns about the normalisation of extremist language and the glorification of violence.<br>
