I believe that Jews should boycott those artists and celebrities who are fighting the culture-intifada against Israel... Let us list these vile pro-arab media personalities so that we can avoid watching or listening to their 'art'...
Here is my short list:
Elvis Costello
Pink Floyd & Roger Waters
Kate Moss
Tom Jones
Guy Ritchie
The Pixies
Here is an article talking about the current cultural intifada being waged against Israel:

“Cultural Terror” in the Middle East
June 10, 2010 - 10:05 AM | by: Karen LielTaking a break from the nerve-wrecking political reality in Israel is becoming even more difficult these days, as a number of well known music artists are canceling their scheduled concerts in Israel. This comes in the wake of last week's flotilla incident that turned deadly when nine pro Palestinian activists were killed after clashing with Israeli commandos.
This week, the US rock band "Pixies" has cancelled their concert in Tel Aviv just two days before the show. The band did not specify the exact reason, but the organizers say the decision was related to last week's flotilla raid. This announcement follows recent concert cancellations by the British dance band "Klaxons" and the "Gorillaz Sound System". Elvis Costello has also recently cancelled a scheduled show in Israel, prior to the flotilla incident, to protest Israeli policies towards the Palestinians.
Others, such as Elton John and Rod Stewart, are still planning to perform in Israel this summer. However, the frequently disappointed Israeli fans are not taking any chances. Over a thousand fans have already joined a Facebook group called "Shalom Elton John" (Hello Elton John), calling Sir John not to give in to international pressure and to come to his planned concert in Tel Aviv next week. The fans are quoting from his songs: "Don’t let the sun go down on me" and "Don't go breaking my heart".
And what happens to those artists who do come?
Lebanese activists called Tuesday for a boycott of the British rock band "Placebo" on the eve of their Lebanon gig, for performing in Israel last week despite the international criticism over the flotilla incident. "The band must choose either to play in Lebanon or to play in a state that continuously violates rights," said campaign spokesman and Lebanese writer Samah Idriss.
Meanwhile, several Israeli artists who were scheduled to perform in different countries in Europe have been notified by the organizers that their concerts are cancelled due to "political reasons". One of them is "Dana International", who was scheduled to perform in the gay parade in Spain and later on in Turkey. Both her concerts were cancelled due to pressure from Pro-Palestinian organizations. Another very popular Israeli musician, Idan Raichel, had to cancel a concert in Istanbul after being told by the organizers that they "can't guarantee his safety".
As a response to the latest events and in an attempt to uplift the mood of the Israeli music fans, the Israeli Culture Ministry is trying to put together a huge free-entrance concert with the best Israeli artists in Tel Aviv.

Reported: 17:47 PM - Jul/13/10
Model Kate Moss was one of the many celebrities at a charity auction in the UK for the Hoping Foundation, a group that raises money for Arab residents of Judea, Samaria and Gaza. Moss raised £10,000 in the auction to play a tambourine on stage. The story as reported in numerous British newspapers said she danced wildly and then smashed the tambourine to bits.
The event was described as a lavish bash and was held at British socialite Jemima Khan's Kiddington Hall in Oxfordshire. Other performers were Tom Jones, Guy Ritchie and members of Pink Floyd. The Hoping Foundation describes itself as an organization for "hope and optimism for Palestinians in the next generation."
