The play is not about Israel but instead tells the story of a Jewish man preserving his family’s traditions in a village in imperial Russia at the turn of the 20th century. The performance on Monday went ahead as planned after the protest at the cafe.

“This is a performance of Fiddler on the Roof,” they wrote alongside footage of the protesters. “So, if you’re busy condemning racist demonstrations, but not this, & you don’t think they should be prosecuted, stop preening yourself. You’re happy with racism – it’s only the target that you worry about.”

    I have no idea. Again, how is this relevant?

    Do you think all Jews are Israeli? Do you think Fiddler on the Roof has an all-Jewish cast? Do you think it’s about Israel?

      It is about an individual against the oppressive state. You know, like Palestinians in Israel 🙄

      So, what about performances about Nakba? I will give you a hint - organisers of such performances have their funding removed and may be persecuted in “democratic” Israel. Go figure.

        Again- this is a musical in London about Jews in Russia in the early 20th century.

        Please answer my questions:

        Do you think all Jews are Israeli?

        Do you think this production of Fiddler on the Roof has an all-Jewish cast?

        Do you think it’s about Israel?

            You have one last chance here to explain what that has to do with this before you get banned for trolling.

              Can you actually read? I said it quite a few posts ago - it is about an individual and oppressing state. You know, like Palestinians in Israel.

                Which has nothing to do with this event unless you think all Jews are Israeli or Israeli sympathizers.

                Is that what you believe? This is the third and final time I will ask you.
