The man with the blue violin

In his great poem “The Man with the Blue Guitar,” Wallace Stevens quoted the man:

“Things as they are
Are changed upon the blue guitar.”

Stevens’s man with the blue guitar, however, has nothing on the musical maestros of Arafatistan.
At Little Green Footballs Charles Johnson notes the propaganda firestorm regarding the Arab violinst who was allegedly humiliated by being forced to fiddle at one of thsoe nefarious Israeli checkpoints: “The violin and the guitar.” Charles links to a classic piece of the same name by Frimet Roth from Israel Insider. If you haven’t seen it yet, you won’t want to miss it.
