[KNEECAP @KNEECAPCEOL]

KNEECAP STATEMENT:

Since our statements at Coachella — exposing the ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people — we have faced a coordinated smear campaign.

For over a year, we have used our shows to call out the British and Irish governments' complicity in war crimes.

The recent attacks against us, largely emanating from the US, are based on deliberate distortions and falsehoods. We are taking action against several of these malicious efforts.

Let us be absolutely clear.

The reason Kneecap is being targeted is simple — we are telling the truth, and our audience is growing.

Those attacking us want to silence criticism of a mass slaughter. They weaponize false accusations of antisemitism to distract, confuse, and provide cover for genocide.

We do not give a f*ck what religion anyone practices. We know there are massive numbers of Jewish people outraged by this genocide just as we are. What we care about is that governments of the countries we perform in are enabling some of the most horrific crimes of our lifetimes — and we will not stay silent.

No media spin will change this.

Our only concern is the Palestinian people — the 20,000 murdered children and counting.

The young people at our gigs see through the lies.

They stand on the side of humanity and justice.

And that gives us great hope.

Kneecap ❤️

Honoured to be making a documentary about Mike’s world record attempt!

He will be circumnavigating the UK in a kayak to raise funds and awareness for @AorticDissectCT @AorticDissectUK and @RNLI .

Please support him if you can ❤️

[John Sweeney @johnsweeneyroar]

My physio Mike Lambert @livelaughgraft is going for the world record kayaking around Britain for @AorticDissectCT @AorticDissectUK and @RNLI in 40 days.

I'm hoping he gets eaten by a stray salt-water crocodile.

#ThinkAorta

But if you can, support him.
