This "opera" is a disgusting spectacle, a vile piece of antisemitic spew couched in artistic licence.
Read this piece from Leon Klinghoffer's daughters.
And people should stop even referring to "Klinghoffer".
He was a man, a father, a husband and a Jew, not some random last name without a soul.
"On Oct. 8, 1985, our 69-year-old wheelchair-bound father, Leon
Klinghoffer, was shot in the head by Palestinian hijackers on the
Achille Lauro cruise ship. The terrorists brutally and unceremoniously
threw his body and wheelchair overboard into the Mediterranean. His body
washed up on the Syrian shore a few days later"
"We have always been strong supporters of the arts, and believe they can
play an important role in examining and understanding significant world
events. “Klinghoffer” does no such thing. It presents false moral
equivalencies without context and offers no real insight into the
historical reality and the senseless murder of an American Jew. The
opera rationalizes, romanticizes and legitimizes the terrorist murder of
our father."
