this absolute asshole made a Very public appearance at a Pogues reunion show where I was in Washington DC at the 930 club years ago. I was Bothered by this, but I guess at least he does like The Pogues, as much as McNulty was playing them. He is A Zionist. Would you ever wonder why?

""Simon was born in Washington, D.C., the son of Dorothy Simon (née Ligeti), a homemaker, and Bernard Simon, a former journalist and then public relations director for B'nai B'rith for 20 years.[5][6][7][8] In March 1977, when Simon was still in high school, Simon's father was one of a group of over 140 people held hostage (and later released) in Washington, D.C. by former national secretary of the Nation of Islam Hamaas Abdul Khaalis in the Hanafi Siege.[9][10][11]

Simon was raised in a Jewish family with roots that originated in Eastern Europe and Hungary (his maternal grandfather had changed his surname from "Leibowitz" to "Ligeti")""
