U2 frontman Bono on Thursday called for Israel to dump Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu while urging freedom for the Hamas terrorist group’s hostages and an end to the war in Gaza.
He revealed his list of geo-political demands on accepting an award in London, England, adding Israel would be best advised to act, and “be released from the far-right fundamentalists that twist your sacred texts.”
Bono’s words of advice to Israel came 48-hours after he attacked the Trump administration for cuts to USAID:
U2 were present at the 2025 Ivor Novello songwriting awards ceremony to receive the Fellowship of the Ivors Academy, the institution’s highest honour, the Guardian reports.
Bono has already been awarded the highest cultural honour of France and received an honorary knighthood.
Collecting the latest award, Bono introduced an acoustic performance of Sunday Bloody Sunday and prefaced it by saying:

Thank you very much and God bless you.
How very English of him.
(Yes, I know he’s Irish.)
Bono gfys
Well, that’s that, then....
Demands??? Hey,pal...just shut up and sing. Or...better still...just shut up!
Get lost ash hole. Go somewhere and do whatever it is you do but get the F$$k going.
Funny, how this scumbag thinks he’s important.
Bono the bonehead speaks...yawn
Can this no-talent hack resign from the human race?
Bono huh, these guys crack me up. Maybe he should run for office with that ocean’s 11 actor.
Bono told GWB how to handle Africa.
The end result is a tax payer funded invasion of the West.
No thanks Bono.
I think celebrities are so inundated with attention they come to believe they’re important. This is like my tomcat who believes he is the center of the universe. While that’s demonstrably true, it’s a very small universe.
This really upsets me. Mainly because Bono did not also tell us how to solve the China/Taiwan dispute and the civil war in Myanmar.
Come on, Bono. Pick up the pace, will ya?
How many courics does Bono weigh these days?
“U2 frontman Bono on Thursday called for Israel to dump Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu while urging freedom for the Hamas terrorist group’s hostages and an end to the war in Gaza.”
He criticizes both sides. Got his bases covered. Thanks President Bono for weighing in.
I used to really like his music, but his smarmy, self-satisfied, self-righteous, Pharisaical bleatings about things he knows nothing about have ruined it for me.
Never been any better or more coherent than that other DBag, Springsteen. Pi$$ on the both of ‘em.
He sure doesn’t pay Irish taxes.
He also left out Pakistan and India, which is far more important, given both are nuclear powers.
It really is odd how the Leftists put outsized focus on one relatively globally unimportant country the size of New Jersey.
Almost Biblical in their hatred.
(We’ll, not “almost”.)
