Israeli artist Ariel Efraim Ashbel is celebrating the songs of the late Egyptian singer Oum Kalthoum.
BERLIN – A Lebanese-based organization that promotes a boycott of the Jewish state failed to stop performances on Saturday and Sunday in Berlin of the Israeli artist Ariel Efraim Ashbel who is celebrating the songs of the late Egyptian singer Oum Kalthoum. The Facebook page of Campaign to Boycott Supporters of Israel in Lebanon wrote on December 27: “Diva: Celebrating Oum Kalthoum” is organized by the Israeli Ariel Efraim Ashbel. Your collaboration with an Israeli is a normalization. Please withdraw from this event!”
