That whole Israel/Palestine thing. It's a right stumper, isn't it?

You know, hecklerspray used to think that maybe the answer lied in a politically progressive, mature, peace-orientated discussion between appropriate world powers. But, boy, were we ever wrong! Almost as wrong as that time we nominated Paula Yates for Mother Of The Year. Not quite, but almost.

Anyway – we should really have been looking to other sources for a solution. Like the gurning Canadian hitmaker behind such gems as Everything I Do, I Do It For You (what, even taking a dump?) and Summer Of '69. Bryan Adams, y'see, is all set to headline a concert that will finalise the Middle East Peace Process forever.

In much the same way that Live Earth stopped climate change for good, or the Princess Diana Concert… erm… resurrected a dead posh woman or something, Bryan Adams has decided that he's going to whip out his guitar on Israel's West Bank and solve this pesky 'peace' issue once and for all.

Apparently:

The objective of the concert is to collect one million signatures from Israelis and Palestinians demanding that their leaders finalise an agreement on a Palestinian state living at peace with Israel, reports the Associated Press. The event is being put together by One Voice, a non-profit organisation based in New York that promotes peace in the Middle East.

A very noble cause, sure. But is the MOR buffoon behind Waking Up The Neighbours really the right figurehead for such a campaign?

Coming soon: Natasha Bedingfield solves the problem of rampant Islamic fundamentalism within the deprived housing estates of Southern England. Followed by a manned mission to Mars. Or something.
