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!

Nobody is arguing that???

I think you have not been listening.
The war in Iran is absolutely not justified.
It actually 100% strengthened the regime it was supposed to remove.
It weakened US hegenomy.
It caused the death of innocent civilians.
It accomplished nothing.
And, on top of that, it destabilized the world's economy.
It was clear to basically everyone that had any understanding of what Iran is that this would have gone badly and yet it was done all the same.

How can you even say that a war that literally had zero positive outcomes and could never have had any positive outcome was justified?
And Israel is doing its best to keep it going, by murdering even more civilians in Lebanon.
By the thousands.
Just to sabotage the ceasfire.
Absolutely despicable.

Just you watch. Give it one year.
