Un tribunal israélien a condamné Justine Sachs, néo-zélandaise juive, et Nadia Abu-Shanab, palestinienne néo-zélandaise, à payer des milliers de dollars après que Lorde ait annulé un concert à Tel Aviv. Après de très nombreuses propositions de soutiens financiers, les deux femmes expliquent ici pourquoi elles tiennent à rassembler l’argent – non pas pour un tribunal étranger, mais à l’attention des gens ordinaires de Gaza.

Israelis sue New Zealanders over #Lorde #boycott
▻http://www.apnewsarchive.com/2018/An-Israeli-legal-rights-group-says-it-is-suing-two-New-Zealanders-allegedly-credited-with-convincing-the-pop-singer-Lorde-to-cancel-her-performance-in-Israel/id-1fd7440622d04a31a47191e204c26097

The two New Zealanders, Justine Sachs and Nadia Abu-Shanab, penned an open letter to Lorde last year in which they urged her to “take a stand” and “join the artistic boycott of Israel.” The New Zealand singer-songwriter replied to a tweet of the letter saying “Noted! Been speaking (with) many people about this and considering all options. Thank u for educating me i am learning all the time too.” She canceled her show days later.

The group, Shurat HaDin, claims the New Zealanders, one Jewish and one Palestinian, knew that their letter could trigger a boycott, making them open to a suit under the law. The group, which filed the lawsuit in a Jerusalem court on Tuesday, is suing on behalf of three Israeli would-be concertgoers for about $13,000 in damages.

More than 100 artists including leading lights in film, theatre, literature, and music have come together to sign a statement of support for the singer, songwriter and record producer Lorde. While signatories to the letter, which is published on the Guardian’s letter page, may hold a range of positions on BDS (Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions), they are united in their defence of the right to freedom of conscience.

’We write in support of Lorde, who made public her decision not to perform in Israel and has now been branded a bigot in a full page advertisement in the Washington Post (Report, 1 January).

Shmuley Boteach, the author and promoter of the advert, supports Israel’s illegal settlements and wrote last month on Breitbart to thank Donald Trump for “electrifying the world” with his recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital in defiance of international law.

He has nothing to teach artists about human rights. We deplore the bullying tactics being used to defend injustice against Palestinians and to suppress an artist’s freedom of conscience. We support Lorde’s right to take a stand.’
