So apparently the Wu-Tang Clan are going to tour Israel. This is really interesting to me - in a good way. I had heard (or did I merely assume, in a racist way?) that Wu-Tang was a supporter of the Nation of Islam and the bigoted bullshit that goes along with Louis Farakhan. Presumably, "showing solidarity with Israel" (however dubious the politics of such a thing may be) suggests they're not the jerks I thought they were - at least when it comes to antisemitism.

NATN:I hear you have some famous fans.
OPD: Lars Ulrich sent us a letter once. You know, the drummer in Metallica. He came to our show in San Francisco and then sent us a letter. We have it up on our "wall of shame" in our studio. We have Tom Cruise. A picture with him and us. And a wonderful picture of Courtney Love and [lead singer] Jonsi [Birgisson]. That’s a good one. We laugh at that one all the time.
