Hey Stevie,
Punk and sentimentality don't mix. Hilly Kristal owne a club. He died. That's it - six,two and even.And he was pretty damn successful. He rubbed shoulders with giants and was a giant himself - Zionism, shmionism, the central point is lost. He should be celebrated with a shot and a beer and then move on. The oppression of his youth didn't follow him and didn't make its way overseas to the punk-core of the squatters in Tel Aviv. He didn't know what it's like to be oppressed and neither do you.
