Francis Ofner reports from Tel Aviv on the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra canceling a Wagner performance amid threats from Nazi prisoner and ex-partisan groups. Public debate centers on whether a legal artistic event warrants police protection and the lasting impact of Wagner’s association with Nazism. The decision highlights tensions between artistic development and security concerns in Israel.
