“The US government arms and finances Israel despite its war crimes,” said the subtitles.During their set at the main music festival, the ball joint used giant screens to display pro-Palestinian messages and anti-Israeli declarations in the middle of the current conflict in Gaza.
“Israel commits a genocide against the Palestinian people. This is made possible by the American government, which weapons and finances Israel despite its war crimes. F ** K Israel. Palestine Libre,” read the text on the group’s performance.
