Defying Boycotts, Jagger, Stones, to Honor Israel’s 65th Birthday

[shira]

Despite a barrage of attacks from British, European and U.S. Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) groups, the Rolling Stones will perform their planned concert in Jerusalem on Israel’s Independence Day, Monday, April 15.

“We’ve been slammed and smacked and twittered a lot by the anti-Israeli side,” said Mick Jagger, the band’s leader and most recognizable member since 1963. “All I can say is: anything worth doing is worth overdoing. So we decided to add a concert on Tuesday.”

7. Kieth Richards blood is so toxic from all the drugs he has done it can be used as a

chemical WMD. Most people would OD from even the slightest trace contact with his blood.

Scary thought: Mick Jagger is himself five years older than Israel.
