Concerts in Israel and West Bank?

According to this article in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, Leonard Cohen will be performing at Ramat Gan Stadium near Tel Aviv on September 24 and also at the Cultural Palace in the Palestinian city of Ramallah on September 26.  

Note that neither date is yet listed on the official tour itinerary.

We welcome the news of the Ramallah concert as a positive development and await more specific information next week.

  1. This is good news. Hopefully it is a genuine and sincere gesture of goodwill and not a damage limitation exercise aimed at defusing criticism and ongoing opposition to his performing in Israel at all
