"On July 4, the Web site of Live Earth announced that 'music legend' Yusuf
(formerly Yusuf Islam, formerly Cat Stevens, and before that Steven Demetre
Georgiou) would headline the Live Earth concert in Hamburg, Germany on July 7,
closing the show there. This is a man who has advocated Salman Rushdie's death.
According to press reports, he closed the show."
Those who advocate violence towards others shouldn't be given a place on a platform that is supposed to be based on peace.
