Rap duo Bob Vylan issue statement clarifying their Glastonbury Festival chant criticizing the Israel Defense Forces and calling to Free Palestine.

Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau confirmed the duo's visas have been revoked "in light of their hateful tirade at Glastonbury, including leading the crowd in death chants."
