Really enjoyed listening to band member asking many of the same questions I ask such as a definition for antisemitism. As someone with Jewish ancestry I wonder about this a great deal, why is it antisemitic to criticise genocide? Speak out against invasion? Great to see musicians continuing the tradition of questioning traditions. Hoping Bob Vylan tour Australia. Cheers
