Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood has publicly defended his collaborations with Israeli musicians, speaking to Spanish newspaper El País. Greenwood argued against boycotting musicians based on their nationality, comparing such actions to destroying books. He did not elaborate on specific collaborations or the context of boycott calls. The statement comes as pressure mounts on artists to take stances regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Greenwood’s position challenges the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement, which advocates for boycotting Israeli artists and institutions. His comments are likely to spark further debate within the music community regarding artistic freedom and political expression. The interview highlights the complexities artists face when navigating politically charged environments.
