She made it clear that she \u2063does\u200c not fly Israeli flags at her shows, but rather, she proudly displays the LGBT rainbow\u2064 flag for its political significance.<\/p>\n<p>Responding to\u2064 the backlash she has received, Pink explained that the flags in question \u2062are Poi flags, which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/singer-pink-denies-flying-israeli-flags-at-concert-only-supports-rainbow-flag\/\" title=\"Pink denies displaying Israeli flags at concert, only supports the rainbow flag.\">hold \u2064deep cultural significance<\/a> for the M\u0101ori \u2063people of New Zealand.\u200b She emphasized their beauty and the respect she has for\u200b the M\u0101ori community.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">This post will be controversial for some. \u2063At this point, breathing is controversial.
