Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. The mayor of Vorst, Belgium, has officially banned an upcoming Disturbed concert, citing public safety concerns stemming from frontman David Draiman’s outspoken support for the Israeli army – namely that one picture where he’s signing missiles that’ll kill people shortly thereafter.
Disturbed was scheduled to play Vorst Nationaal on Wednesday, October 15, but the plug has now been pulled following a police order issued by Mayor Charles Spapens (PS) according to De Standaard.
They are religious, Zionists believe God is on their side, I see it sort of like a form of prayer. People have written on their weapons for centuries.
zionism does not imply they are religious.
Some of the worst zionists are atheists or US ‘christians’
There’s a gargantuan difference between naming a weapon you’re using yourself and doing some performative shit and signing a bomb that you’ll never see the repercussions of. At least there’s a bit of logic behind soldiers naming their swords or guns because those items are directly responsible for their own survival in a shitty situation they may or may not have directly volunteered for. My agreement or disagreement with that entirely separate subject aside: Fuck any wannabe badass who does shit like this thinking it’s some sort of flex. Murdering someone over political or religious reasons is fucking stupid every day of the god damned year. Period. Full fucking stop.
I agree, I’m not saying it’s a cool thing, just that it’s been done forever. Like the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were signed and written on.
…by soldiers. Which is still dumb but more understandable than a celebrity.
