17-year-old pop singer, Justin Bieber, has fallen afoul of Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. Bieber is in Israel for a stop on his "My World" tour and was scheduled to meet the Prime Minister. Netanyahu, later requested Bieber meet with kids, who were injured in a Gaza Strip bombing. Bieber's people declined. As a result, Netanyahu cancelled the meeting altogether.

Bieber's manager, Scooter Braun, later had a change of heart and requested Benjamin Netanyahu bring the kids, who are now invited to the singer's concert. Braun claims the incident was a scheduling conflict. However, it appears to be a political one, in wanting to avoid the conflict taking place in the region between the Jewish and Arab people. However, children are children, whether Jewish or Arab and no one should fault anyone for meeting with them and showing them kindness. Hopefully everything is okay now.
