U2 have been advocates for peace and justice for nearly a half century. Which his why it was not surprising that during Sunday night’s (Oct. 8) show at the new Sphere in Las Vegas singer Bono took time out to acknowledge the devastating aftermath of a brutal surprise assault by Hamas militants early Saturday morning o Israel that has so far resulted in the deaths of more than 700 Israelis, including 260 killed at the Supernova desert dance festival.

Europeans are typically more ambivalent over the Israeli (whatever u want to call them I don’t care) 70 year conflict especially the Brits with their colonial Arab past so this was a pleasant surprise
Irish Republican terrs used to train with PLO etc for the record

At least Roger Waters has the stones to come out swinging as an anti-Semite and Jew-hater, for most, if not all, of his life.
But the simpering virtue-signaling beta-cuck celebutards chiming in on this Latest Thing is laughable and pathetic, like the Uke or Israeli flag(s) in an on-line profile.
Come on, Bono, stand for something other than a nebulous and unattainable "peace."

Wardaddy, that is a flat out lie. Bono was raised nondenominational/interdenominational Christian, and he's been that his entire adult life.
So, why are you lying?

who exactly does bono pray to?
Bono prays to himself.

Bono’s father was a Catholic, his mother an Anglican. Their older music covered both realms so truly it is hard to say which he subscribes to.

I’m guessing that Nickie is not Catholic.

Note to Boner: The only way to ensure peace is to hunt down and all the terrorists: Hamas, Hezbollah, the IRGC, the Mullahs.

Just wait until he runs into a Beagle flying his doghouse.
Well, except on Christmas...

IIRC the band was named after the more famous US spy plane.
