Israeli President Cancels Pop Star's Appearance

Rivlin’s office said Tuesday it canceled its invitation for Benayoun to perform at an event next week marking the expulsion and exile of Jews from Arab countries and Iran. Five Palestinian assailants have died at the hands of Israeli security forces, and an Arab-Israeli man was fatally shot by police during a violent protest. Critics, including Arab rights groups and many Jewish Israelis, believe it would undercut Israel’s democratic character. Officials have delayed a parliamentary vote, originally scheduled for Wednesday, by a week while legislators search for compromise language.
