One can find a fuller description of what happened at
http://yourjewishnews.com/10666.aspx Muslims around the audience popped up
at different times. Here is a description of the disruptions:
"The concert started as normal and then "a group of 10 to 15 people stood up
in the choir stalls [behind the orchestra]," said London lawyer Paul
Infield, 56, who was in the audience. "Each person was carrying a white
sheet on which had been drawn a letter spelling out 'Free Palestine.' "The
group was singing words to the tune of Beethoven's "Ode to Joy" and went
quietly when ushers removed them, he said.
"Infield continued his account, saying that many in the audience of close to
6,000 booed, hissed and shouted "Get out!" and "Go home!" along with
obscenities. The audience also responded to the protest with slow hand
clapping, which is considered an offensive gesture in Britain. Subsequent
disruptions, which eventually numbered about half a dozen, were played out
in a similar fashion. A man who had silently displayed an Israeli flag was
also removed by Royal Albert Hall staff.
And yes, those attending the concert and wishing to hear the music were
upset: "According to Infield, the final disruption of the evening involved
some shouting from the gallery about the siege of Gaza, which was silenced
with a punch thrown by an adjacent audience member. Both parties were
escorted quickly from the premises." The man who threw the punch probably
isn't as tolerant of creeping sharia as some in Britain seem to be.
"The British newspaper the Telegraph reported that the group Palestine
Solidarity Campaign was responsible for the disturbances."
And here is a blog I haven't encountered before
http://citizenkeep.blogspot.com/2011/09/islams-war-on-western-culture-bbc.ht
ml: "Islamic degradation of civil societies. What was once beautiful and
precious is now the battleground for subhumans and savages. In a disgusting
display of Islamic Jew-hatred, the BBC was forced to cancel its broadcast of
the BBC proms concert at London's Royal Albert Hall for the first time in
history."
That's rather harsh. Where does this Citizen Watch person live, I wonder?
After a description of the disruption, not dissimilar from the one above, he
concludes, "This is not new -- so many performances by Jewish artists and
musicians are disrupted and ruined by these savage neanderthals who would
have the whole world living under the bloody and brutal sharia, devoid of
love, music, art and happiness."
I must protest his use of the term "Neanderthals." I suspect they were much
better behaved than anti-neanderthal prejudice has allowed. Recent genetic
discoveries prove that they passed some very useful genes down to us.
Muslim disrupters aren't passing anything useful to us as far as I can tell.

Maybe you in Britain are used to this and take your usual offense at those
of us in the U.S. expressing shock, but someone needs to be ashamed of this
sort of behavior - if not the Muslim perpetrators then the permissiveness
that permits them to misbehave.
If rather than condemn these clowns you excuse them, and via Google find
something comparable happening in the U.S, I'll save you the trouble. I
would feel the same way if it happened here, and it probably will.
Left-wing Liberalism is everywhere.
