Elton John performs a defiant show in Tel Aviv

London Singer Elton John played a defiant show in Tel Aviv, taking aim at artists who had pulled out of concerts in Israel in protest against the government's alleged ill-treatment of Palestinians.

John refused to bow to pressure and performed Thursday asking his fellow musicians to put aside their political allegiances, contactmusic.com said.

"Shalom, we are so happy to be back here! Ain't nothing going to stop us from coming, baby! Musicians spread love and peace, and bring people together. That's what we do. We don't cherry-pick our conscience," John said.

Recently artists like The Pixies and Elvis Costello scraped their concerts in response to the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine.
