Bono's son Elijah Hewson says it 'shouldn't be controversial' to stand up for children in Gaza
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Bono's son Elijah Hewson has said "it shouldn't be controversial" to stand up for the rights of children "being bombed" in Gaza. The second youngest son of the U2 rock star and his wife Ali Hewson was performing with his band Inhaler at St Anne's Park on Friday night. Speaking to the crowd, Eli said: "It shouldn't be controversial to stand up for the rights of kids that are being bombed in Gaza. "We stand with the people of Palestine tonight. Any kids that are being murdered for the sake of any ideology is wrong." Crowds cheered as the band then continued to perform. It comes in the wake of Belfast rappers Kneecap's advocacy for Palestine came under intense scrutiny after they used a performance at the Coachella festival in California last month to denounce Israeli attacks on Gaza. A video emerged from a November 2023 gig appearing to show one of the trio saying: "The only good Tory is a dead Tory." Last month, Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, 27, was charged by the Metropolitan Police after the incident on 21 November 2024 at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town, London. Mr Ó hAnnaidh, who performs under the stage name Mo Chara, is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, 18 June. In a statement posted on social media, Kneecap previously said: "We deny this 'offence' and will vehemently defend ourselves. "This is political policing. This is a carnival of distraction. 14,000 babies are about to die of starvation in Gaza, with food sent by the world sitting on the other side of a wall, and once again the British establishment is focused on us."
