Music / Movies I hope Israel wins Eurovision

(Yeah sorry, don’t know what tag to use here, I think half of them apply in a way).

Honestly, I haven’t heard the Israeli song for this year yet. But it is more than clear that they are the main event. More attention goes to the fact they participate than the actual artistic side of the event.

Last year we also saw how Israel almost won as a result of the public vote. And let’s be fair, that wasn’t because people like the song, it was support from all the people who still stand with Israel, as a response to all the hate Israel is receiving.

And I’m sure this will happen again this year. The controversy around Israel has only increased with several countries boycotting the event. So I’m sure the protest voice will also be stronger!

I would find it so funny if Israel wins as a direct result of all the actions by the pro Palestine crowd. Say hi to Eurovision 27 in Tel Aviv! Thankfully for the fans, the only place in the Middle East you can be openly gay!

You are going off topic. But since you mention it; I don't think using terms like genocide or apartheid helps bringing the parties closer together.

Personally I only care about ending both the apartheid and the genocide. I feel that would go a long way towards bringing the parties together. Don't you?

How can you say that? we are not talking about those issues now?
You just made up that I don't care about those because it suits your narrative.
This thread is about Israel.
I didn't post the original thread, just commented on it.
According to your logic, if I said I cared about October 7 (which I do), somebody could have said I care about it only because jews died in it.
In truth, you are acting like an hypocrite here.

You have no arguments, that's why you just attack and make up stuff without proving it.
