Former Genesis lead singer, British pop-idol Phil Collins arrived in Israel Sunday, and is scheduled to perform at a live concert Monday at the Blumfield Stadium in Jaffa.

Collins and his entourage arrived in Israel with two jets and 80 tons of equipment, after performing in the Lebanese capital of Beirut.

I am a musician and have nothing to say on political issues, Collins said to reporters during a press conference he held at the Tel Aviv Dan hotel, where the singer is staying.

"All I can say in the matter of politics is that the more people show compassion toward one another, the more the world has a chance of becoming a better place," he said.

In an interview with the Israeli press, Collins said he is very happy to perform for his Israeli fans. Collins spoke of his family, old friends from Genesis and his career.
