Good for her  I see no reasons why she shouldn't perform there. It's safe enough.

Those dozens of Holocaust survivors make a majority of Holocaust survivors alive today, and most of them are in their 90s. Why does it matter? They knew very well how the Nazi genocide of the Jews started and was like and now witness their very own state to treat Palestinians in a frighteningly similar way and try to stop it. Thats quite a powerful statement imo.

Extremely hypocritical gaga

Well done for not letting your love for gaga cloud your vision. Some very deluded members here. I get that you'd defend your fave, but in this situation she is a hypocrite.

Exactly, and Israel decides to bomb Gaza and kill 2000+ people. **** logic

Ok then lets look at deaths ordered by the israeli government if that is truly what you are worried about.
This is only from july 21st this year, it doesn't include the thousands your government has killed in the past

The overreaction in here  Just because of what the government there is doing, she should disappoint her huge fanbase there?

A show can not go ahead unless it's insured. There are war and terrorism clauses in insurance policies. If it is too unsafe the show will not go ahead regardless of gagas wishes because gaga, needs to be insured.
So, if the show is going ahead it's because it's safe. End of story.
In regards to the whole genocide business. That's a fued that has been going on longer than all of us have been alive and whenever a celeb makes a statement about it favouring one side the media hammers them. Gaga should say something on stage while she's there about peace in the Middle East not specifically mentioning one side.

How are these "Dozens" of holocaust survivors (if there's even that many that support this article) the "majority"?... My grandma is a holocaust survivor who's alive and well and I know at least 10 others within the vicinity of my extended family. I can guarantee you none of them or even their friends remotely agree with that article.
Please stop making statements if you really have no idea what you're talking about.

Even tho I stan for Gaga I do not stan for this show in Tel Aviv, just saddens me, but that's me personally.
Speaking about hypocrisy. When it comes to safety in Tel Aviv, Israelis are on the barricades to say how much of a threat Hamas is to their people and how they fear their life.
Now, we speaking about a show and the whole time Israelis claim there is no threat and she should come there cause it's totally safe. So what is it then?

During the “Second Intifada,” Palestinian terrorists carried out a wave of suicide bombings, killing hundreds of Israelis at nightclubs, cafes, buses, and other locations throughout Israel, such as at a hotel during the Jewish holiday of Passover. Eventually, over the objections of the international community, Israel built a security fence that has proved successful in virtually eliminating the capacity of terrorists to carry out suicide attacks. Being deprived of their ability to massacre Jews through suicide bombings, Palestinians turned toward indiscriminately firing rockets at Israeli civilians. The threat that exists today is mostly mitigated, for the time being Israelis are not being killed as they once were due to security measures taken by the government. There's always the possibility of a rocket landing in a population center - it is more rare than it previously was. Still, having to drop everything, leave your car/bus/kitchen/school/hospital and run to a shelter in 15 seconds multiple times a day for weeks on end isn't a way to live life. So while it's "safe" in the sense that casualties are unlikely, it's still a scary situation. That's the best way of explaining it - but really, you have to live in Israel to understand what this truly means on a daily basis.

The conflict is over at the moment and Tel Aviv is safe (not that it ever wasn't) so I don't see a problem 
I hope she speaks her mind tho. Did she ever say something about Israel's genocide?

As lady gaga makes her millions and stays in her luxurious Israeli hotel, children nearby will be murdered. She will support the economy of a nation culpable of genocide. And this is an artist who prides her self on compassion, acceptance, 'sharing pain' and so on. It makes me feel sick to my stomach
