Tel Aviv — After crediting Nazi sympathizers in her first feature-length directorial effort "W.E.," Madonna is once again causing a similar kind of controversy by using very questionable images during her new world tour that kicked off last night in Tel Aviv.

During one section of the tour, Madonna is seen looking like Adolf Hitler and sporting a swastika on her forehead. In addition to that, flags including the Iron Cross are seen waving around. The Iron Cross was a well known military decoration of The Third Reich.

The stunned fans tried to shrug it off as yet another provocation by the Material Girl, who is well known for creating such controversy in order to get more press for her new projects. The question remains - did she finally take it too far?

SOURCE

Madonna dressed up like Hitler and put a swastika on her forehead while performing in Israel. So what do we think? Is Madonna disrespectful? Should she have toned down her show to respect the history of the country she was performing in?

Well it's not like she's supporting Nazis.

[JustAHolyFool]

Hitler approves.

[Kang.]

Yes, and that's why we love her

Edit: Wait, she actually dressed up as Hitler on stage

[DrownedWorld]

The whole video is about discrimination.

Let's take one picture from her concert completely out of context and write an article about it.

Yes and no. Madonna is, and always will be a bitch, but not in this case. The interlude was supposed to showcase symbols and leaders that have negatively affected human rights, not glorify them.

But should she maybe have trimmed the section or found a different way to talk about discrimination, instead of offending her fans and the country she was in?

The people who got offended completely missed the point of the interlude, so no. It's their own fault that they got so butthurt over nothing.

The video was about different discriminations and acts of injustice throughout history.

The article attempted to make something out of it, and so did you. Better luck next time!

The question remains... Have we reached the point where dressing up as Hitler in Israel is something to be celebrated? Should creative freedom come at the expense of dredging up memories of one of the most horrific events in human history?

[GGD]

No that was a statement

she's just showing us the Filth of our Society through that interlude

[castrobabytiger]

I think if its in a room full of Jews she would have been torn to pieces

I don't know how I feel about this

So you think everyone should just forget about Hitler?

[sglatt]

it's all about context. watch the whole interlude before you post something like this. it's flame bait.

[Keira]

Heil Hitler?!

She is the female version of Hitler, actually.

She didn't dress up as Hitler in Israel though. It was a VIDEO INTERLUDE that was used in the tour, and if you watched up (which I'm sure you did since you seem to be so obsessed) you'll see the entire point. In the end of the interlude she also has pictures of teenagers who killed themselves due to bullying.

So she is equating gay teenagers with Hitler?

[Ainsworth]

She was fighting against discrimination. She wasn't actually supporting Hitler in any way, shape or form.

It's important that the current and future generations have knowledge about these topics.

I'm all for dragging Madonna but in the context of the video I think it's understandable. Yes it's very attention and controversy seeking but in the overall feel of the video interlude it fit the theme.
