Australian musician Nick Cave discussed his support for Israel and the Jewish people and explained why he has ignored calls to boycott the country in a Wednesday interview with Reason magazine.
A close connection to the Jewish people
When asked why he is so adamant about his stance against antisemitism, Cave explained how he was raised near a Jewish community in Australia and had many Jewish friends, including a Jewish girlfriend, when growing up.
“Regardless of all the horrific complications going on in Israel at the moment, deep down, I have a sort of abiding love for that place,” Cave emphasized.
