This wasn't an
Israeli event. There was £1400 worth of funding from the Israeli Embassy and because of that, they cancelled. They should have asked the Embassy to withdraw and continue with the festival. I'm sure plenty of Jewish people would have supported it financially. Being Jewish doesn't automatically make you a supporter of Israel's stance on Gaza.
