Statement as empty as their convictions.

yeah totally empty. “we created this event in the 70s so people could come together over music 🥺🥺 not speak out against genocide”

It's not though. The first two paragraphs are exactly what Id expect. The deliberate (but deliberately written by lawyers to avoid libel countersuits) conflation of antisemitism & hate speech (terms that from an institution can be used against them in court) is extremely deliberate.

Emily Eavis is sat on a £250m+ brand..

If she has to kill some of that credibility, even saw off some cultural importance, she can bail and make absurd amounts of money.

It's not empty. It's a confession for the future.
