The Eurovision Reference Group is an executive committee that controls the running of the Eurovision Song Contest, writing the rules and making decisions about the format. Formed of the Eurovision Executive Supervisor, the Heads of Delegations of three countries, and Executive Producers of previous contests, it was this group that permitted Israel’s inclusion in Eurovision 2024 with “Hurricane,” after requesting multiple revamps to remove politically-charged lyrics from the song. But now, a former member of the Reference Group has spoken up and said this was the wrong decision.
Miša Molk is a producer and television personality who has worked extensively within the Slovenian Eurovision delegation. She was also a member of the Eurovision Reference Group from 2001-2009.
Appearing on TV programme Odmevi, Molk was asked by host Igor Bergant whether we are witnessing the beginning of the end of Eurovision as we know it:
“I think we’re close. Although deceiving you with the words of bread and games is deceptive and very misleading. It is also humiliating to those who have no bread, who have no roof over their heads, who have no water, who have no life. For this reason, I think that it can no longer stand in this form and that this glorification of war crimes through music is shameful.”
Molk has previously called out the “feigned apoliticalness” of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), which organises the contest. Adding to this in the interview, she said the bans on flags and Palestinian symbols didn’t address the root cause of the issue, which should have been solved by not allowing Israel to participate at Eurovision this year.
“There were very many bans, yet the most necessary ones were not in place: The ones you might expect, i.e. that Israel would not participate or that the event itself would be cancelled this year. So there were many possibilities. The EBU has tried very hard to prevent any conflicts, oppositions, but…
[interrupted by Bergant: “Didn’t that actually cause more of them?”]
“Yes, some anger and internal rebellion […] Seeing the hatred and suffering on Earth. With this, we descended into the dark side of life, which can also be real, but the Earth has escaped us in the meantime.”
To conclude, Molk was questioned about the future of Eurovision after the controversial events of the 2024 edition, and whether Slovenia should be part of it.
The former Reference Group member gave a warning that the desire to compete and put on a big show means many will be too quick to forget the despair that surrounded this year’s contest. Since the Israel-Gaza conflict could likely still be in a similar position come May 2025, Molk noted that next year’s event would see a return to the same mistakes if action isn’t taken on the matter.
“Of course, the leaders and those responsible here will decide on Slovenian participation. […] We forget very quickly, we forget too quickly, we love to compete, we love to guess, and we love the spectacle. And since the world isn’t going to change much until next year, and I wish it would, we’re probably going to get back into the contest of bread and games.”
What do you make of Miša Molk’s comments about Israel’s participation at Eurovision 2024? Let us know in the comments below.
If it were a normal fair competition, only music would count, not politics. Why wouldn’t Israel take part? The jury’s open boycott of Israel and Ukraine and great favoritism towards Metler violate the Competition rule. The result should be canceled because there were irregularities and violation of the regulations
Israeli outlet Ynet confirms Eden Golan’s televote advertising campaign was organised by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs
https://www.ynet.co.il/news/article/sykjyhaza
Yep! It’s confirmed! Astroturfing at its best. From the article: “The support Golan received from the European audience was preceded by a campaign by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the government publicity office for Eurovision fans, in which the Israeli representative addressed them in French, Italian, Spanish, German, Czech, Latvian, Estonian, Albanian, Georgian and English – and asked them to vote for her.” “The videos taken by Golan were uploaded to a dedicated YouTube channel and received more than 14 million views. The campaign appealed to audiences selected based on a careful analysis of the voting patterns of countries… Read more »
Thanks for elaborating on this. I posted the link on other wiwi articles. Can you please reply to my comments there with this extra information to inform the public of the shenanigans that israel engaged in?
Done! Hasbara bots incoming…
I was called a leftist, a liar and an antisemite fir saying what you have just said. Thanks for posting this.
I don’t think campaigning is illegal in Eurovision.
Is that illegal? There was mobilization/campaigning, which doesn’t mean KAN paid people to vote or set up bots. If another country did this, I don’t think people would be complaining as much.
When other countries did it they were heavily criticized. When you read comments such as, “I don’t even know what ESC is but I will answer the call to vote for Israel.” “I’ve never watched the ESC before but I will vote for Israel.” It all just makes you wonder. Besides Israel never hides the fact that its Parliament each year votes for a budget.running into millions to pay social influencers, propagandists etc to put forward Israeli interests and for silencing opposition. So many wouldn’t put it past it that people were actually paid to vote.
Nemo being fantastic:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DqP-Xdj3jk
And they are using Celine Dion’s outfit.
It would be so cool if Eurovision had a live orchestra again. Instead of spending money on pyrotechnics the money would be better used to pay the musicians.
SRG SSR need look no further. You have your work cut out for you. This is the perfect performance to open Eurovision 2025. Furthermore, the orchestra is from Nemo’s city, Biel.
I love everything about that.
I don’t think that Israels participation was the biggest problem. No the biggest problem was, that there was more show than music. It was disgusting to watch Spain and their pathetic performance with 2 fat men dancing half naked. Not to forget UK. That was really shameful to watch. I am happy they got a very deserved 0 points from the public. Next year I hope we will see a Eurovision for the whole family and with focus on music and singing.
Except Israel’s participation was the biggest problem.
As an avid Eurovision fan from half way around the world, I was in Spain when Sweden won last year and can tell you that this year I was too busy to hear all of the songs until the week of the contest. From the first moment I heard the Spanish entrant this year I was enchanted not by the staging or stuff but by the music. It has not left my mind. Music can be heard in a vacuum but if that’s the case it can just be a radio program but we live in a time where we… Read more »
Actually music cannot be heard in a vacuum…
It’s okay, Tony, you can come out from under the bed now… the gay monsters have gone away.
Oooooo you hate difference whatever homophobe
As a gay man I want to disagree with you but I just can’t. The overly sexualised performances do spoil it a little bit. I feel that the UK would have received public points if it wasn’t so sexualised. I love the campness of Eurovision but agree, the Spanish dancers didn’t look hot or good in their outfits they looked terrible. I wish sometimes people were a bit more subtle l.
I am not a bot, but I cannot prove otherwise.
Or can I?
Suggestions on how to prove we are not bots are welcome.
As for the actual post story, comparing Eurovision to Ancient Rome (bread and circuses) is absurd. But I agree that changes need to happen.
Purple Bot

Poor poor Bani
Lol. Continue deluding yourself.
As the saying goes, “Quos Deus vult perdere, prius dementat.” – Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad.
What denial dear Bani? The one doing all the denying is you over here. You should know all about smart phones. They were working in overdrive last week and as to stupid people well……. now run along and let the adults do the talking. It is way beyond you.
Piša
Wise words, the EBU made the wrong call this year. If the contest is truly apolitical than allow Russia and Belarus to come back next year. Belarus did the exact same thing Israel did with regards to sending a propaganda song. I also don’t remember many people having sympathy for the Russians who got booed for representing their country, and let’s be honest, Russians don’t have democracy so don’t even really have the same influence over their countries decisions that israeli’s do.
Do bots, or their handlers actually think downvoting works?
We ALL know the truth
They are desperate. They’re same bot army they use for vote manipulation. It’s funny to see these hasbarats scrambling lol
You can sense the frantic typing in each comment
I find it hilarious lol like catch a breath
And ANOTHER hit in the Antizionist Bullsh°t bingo.
Maybe Hannibal Directive next?
How predictable Wiwi that after almost no coverage of the Israeli entry this year, this shameful headline by a former member gets a headline. “Glorification of war crimes”? Shame on her and shame on you for spreading this hateful rubbish.
Imagine pretending all is good when the entity called israel is openly committing gen.o.cide as the world watches.
From the beginning, the Wiwiblogs team was clear that they would limit coverage of the Israeli delegation, because they did not agree with the criminal actions of the Israeli government. There’s nothing to be ashamed of. The shame lies on the side that is committing g3noc1de and apartheid and on those who collude in these atrocities.
You can’t honestly think this is true – settlers have been caught in the past couple of days intercepting aid trucks and burning them, throwing out the food inside. Why would they do this if not to spread misery? Why are they starving children on purpose?
Because they are @ssholes who probably think, that they can use it as leverage to pressure H@m@ss to release the hostages and also to cause harm. Which is futile and thus unacceptable. It however highlights the fact, that there is nothing that can pressure H@m@s to end this, whereas USA an UK can pressure ISrael.
Exactly, the settlers are so hateful they are purposefully starving their own hostages.
In every civilized legal system, it is the obligation of the kidnapper to provide for his victim. If H@m@s cannot feed the hostages or provide their medical care, they can release them. If not and they cause harm or death of the hostages, it is the fault of the kidnapper.
Well Israel doesn’t care much about the civilised legal system when it comes to building illegal settlements in the West Bank , so it’s not exactly a country where the rule of law is followed. Whatever H@m@s SHOULD do, the settlers know that they are harming the hostages by burning the trucks. Maybe they don’t want them back because then the war would be over and Netanyahu would have to give up power? Who knows
Okay, so you are basicly accusing Isr@el of war crimes, which is legit but are condoning a war crimes yourself?
Nobody is condoning war crimes. Lots of people have expressed that the monsters from both sides must be sent to The Hague.
Are you his spokesperson now? Why are you answering for him, just curious? What he wrote is obviously an approval of the hostage taking and a shift of responsibility to Isr@el. And btw what he wrote is utter nonsense as even before this cret/ns started blocking the aid, there were reports from the rele@sed host@ges, that the food rations are scarce and that even one of the girls was forced to do slave work for a family, cook for them and was withheld food herself. And does Rory think that the settlers are also responsible for the @buse of the… Read more »
Im not sure where you’re getting the idea that I’m condoning what H@mas did, but I’m not going to expect the same adherence to law from a terorist group that i would expect from a supposedly “civilised nation”. my own country (ireland) had a very long religous based conflict in northern ireland which also involved terrorism on both sides, the UK, for all their faults, NEVER even tried to suggest it wouldbhave been justified to enact collective punishment on catholics in belfast after IRA attacks
so you think because some Jews lived there thousands of years ago you think modern day American settlers are allowed to just show up and kill the people living there now, who have been there for generations? What sort of barbarian logic is that? The settlements in the West Bank are illegal
Isreal has killed 500 people in the West Bank since October 7th as well as the thousands that they’ve driven off their land and burned down their villages, mostly Bedouin. I know you’re a hasbara bot but surely even you know about that
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFE6qQ3ySXE
Bots be going hard in this comment section with downvoting and upvoting.
Yeah the Israelis found this blog and see that their behaviour is exposed 😀
There was absolutely no glorification of war crimes whatsoever, the hysterical response from the “fans” and artists is absolutely unreal. The artists had the power to boycott and withdraw and they all chose to perform, very hypocritical of them all really. The sustained bullying campaign of a 20 year old Jewish girl just because she comes from Israel has been really eye opening. Well done for absolutely spoiling Eurovision this year with your unwarranted hysteria. I expect to see every single one of you protesting in Paris next month but you won’t because you are just hypocritical keyboard warriors
Allowing Israeli flags and not pal estine’s, using anti-booing devices to cover the true audience reaction to the song, clearly favouring one side over the other would seem like pretty obvious glorification to me. Also are you living under a rock? There are huge protests planned for Paris
Why would they allow Palestinian flags? Palestine do not compete in Eurovision and are not members of EBU
The banning of flags is ridicule. They even banned the EU flag which is also the Council of Europe flag. That’s stupid. All flags should be allowed. It’s a matter of freedom of speech.
So? If it’s “apolitical” why does it matter? We’ve seen people fly flags from many countries not in the EBU before and no-one had a problem. Suddenly we can’t even fly the EU flag?
one girl booed for the actions of her hoverment vs 35000 ( thirty five thousand) slaughtered for the actions of terrorists
The simplest thing to do would be to order that only countries in Europe can enter the Eurovision Song Contest. Even though that would also rule out Australia.
OK, let’s continue with the education then. The European broadcasting area includes all of North Africa and most of the Middle East, plenty of countries who don’t participate because of the presence of Israel. We want Morocco (back), and also Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, etc., in Eurovision. We also want a free Palestine in Eurovision.
Yeah, the democratic and human rights spirit would certainly surge with the entrance fo these beacons of humanity. Why not invite the Houthis and Iran too?
It will be nice to see that with all those countries participating, LGBTQI+ artist could be threatened or being said their style of life is unruly to whatever god these people praise. So, your idea is just as stupid as many other I’ve been reading in the comments here.
Mrs. Molk, shame of you ! You´re speaking rubbish !
Lol the Israel bots are so desperate to hide the truth! Look at them here in this thread lmao
BREAKING: “Israel astroturfed Eurovision vote but lost anyway, govt admits”
https://thegrayzone.com/2024/05/14/israel-astroturfed-eurovision-vote/
An Israeli reporter for The New York Times and Israeli newspaper Haaretz also reported on it.
LOL, for this people, even Soros (a Jew) is antisemite. They’re more twisted than a pretzel.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFE6qQ3ySXE
Cope harder. Even The Times of Isreal reported it:
https://www.timesofisrael.com/israel-gets-top-public-vote-from-14-countries-in-eurovision-plus-rest-of-the-world/
I just read it and didn’t see any report about it. Maybe you are right, but how can we tell without evidence?
https://thegrayzone.com/2024/05/14/israel-astroturfed-eurovision-vote/
Another frightening report from G@z@:
https://twitter.com/ryangrim/status/1790418169217032355
It’s like they are playing the Hunger Games with medical and aid workers.
We have enough news websites, or news on social networks. Do you have something about ESC? maybe about Nemo, the winner? we can at least find a little room to say a word about the show.
Sorry you have to cope with the truth. But this is why Israel should have excluded itself from the competition. Instead, they decided to use it as a propaganda platform. Now you have to deal with de backlash.
In one of advertisments, Eden Golan denounced “the wave of hatred and Muslim demonstrations in Malmö”. So she is basically weaponising and demonising a faith to cynically obtain more points.
?This is obscenely racist to say as it wasn’t just Muslims protesting in Malmo and elsewhere.
Can you imagine the outcry if someone dare say such a thing about the Jewish community. Heads would roll.
The count of antisemitic people here is growing Another natzi propaganda expert
Repeat after me for the umpteenth time: condemning the criminal actions of the Israeli state and army is not being anti-Semitic. Don’t empty the meaning of the word.
So saying that it’s bad to generalize about Muslims now makes you a natzi? I guess you are the same people the think criticising the Israeli government makes you antisemitic so comprehension of words isn’t your strong point but damn
Jonathan, Ruxandra, or someone at wiwibloggs, please write an article on Israel’s vote manipulation. I just posted the link to the source.

BREAKING: Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs admits to vote manipulation in other countries to boost Eden Golan’s televote score, as reported by The Time of Israel and The Grayzone.
If that’s true, what else is needed to permanently expel iZrael from ESC?
I also read that jews and Israelis were drinking wine made from sweedish kids blood to celebrate their victory .
Yeah It was in this website http://www.bring.back.hitler.eu.com
I thought you use the bl@@d of goyim children for the macot? (Sarcasm)

They’ve been here for weeks.
Nobody is triggered. Clear to see the bots :)))
You’re a sad pos supporting mass m4rdrr of Arabs. Making you… an anti-Semite.
Who? Even the article acknowledges this person not been relevant for 15 years.
Can’t wait to hear from the head of hair and make up from the 1995 polish delegation to find out their stance on the matter.
Justyna is a genius
‘Sama’ was a wonderful opener in 95′, maybe 18th position was too low.
Just ban Israel next year . By then its leaders will be charged for war crimes .
They won’t be charged with anything. The best thing would be to have the West cut off support. Then they’ll be isolated there. If Iran decides they want a full on war with Israel, the West doesn’t intervene and if any Israelis try fleeing to the West, then detain them while war crimes are investigated. Let Israel live with the disaster they’ve created.
Ladies and gentlemen, if you have ever asked yourself, why Stal*nist, Ma@ist, PolP@tist and other far-leftist democ/des were possible, then here is your answer. There is always enough fanatical disciples, who are ready to openly admit, they would help other people get slaughtered and the rest – women, men, children – detained in conc€ntration camps.
The question is, whether such fanatic xxxxx should be detained itself and if yes, if by the police or in the psychiatry ward of the nearest hospital.
“How dare you ask Israel to live with the consequences of our actions!” Also, the three politicians you’ve mentioned were all inspired by Karl Marx…
Ok, N@ziboy.
POV: Israelis making a bigger mess of this comments section than they did of Eurovision.
And antisemitics like yourself are always on the watch so inform

Funny to see all those new profiles popping in here 🙂 Not suspicious at all
For those who keep arguing that everything started on October 7th:
https://twitter.com/CensoredMen/status/1790323348313944207
And with this, I defy the Israeli bots to downvote me. It will be an honor!
Downvotes incoming
Straight up facts though
Downvotes are a sign that you’ve hit on truths they want to cover up. I thought I’d heard all the evil that these people were capable of but that video is horrific. I think we all need to redouble our efforts to stop European countries from supporting Israel.
I am really disappointed. They didn’t accept my challenge.
Evil oh evil. Same old words some old methods. Antisemitism is genetic probably. I’m sure you it won’t take a long time to find your parents membership cards for Hitlers youth and your grandparents cheering for Hitler or Musolini .
Funny, a g3noc1de apologist trying to sling mud against others. Lack of self-awareness.
As someone working in law enforcement i can assure you, that the sh/t posted here by Marlinken would already trigger the antiextremist department of the CI involved. I hope he is not German, § 86a and § 130 are waiting for him 🙂
Hit a nerve have I? If I’ve posted anything untrue, show me how it’s untrue. I’m a very reasonable person, willing to change my mind. But you don’t like dealing with facts, you just scream “A N T I S E M I T I S M” at them.
Also, no, not German. Try harder!
But can I ask you to comment the content of the link I posted above? I’m really interested in knowing your opinion.
Noone here says that it began on Oct 7th. It did not begin 1947/48 either.
So, in your opinion when did it begin.
That is very hard to say. But basically (oversimplified) when Zionism as Jewish nationalism and the Panarab nationalism started to collide in their goals. Which would be around 1918/20.
Yeah, I agree with you. Have you ever had the opportunity to watch the documentary from which the clip linked above was taken?
I recommend. It’s from 2022, it’s called “Tantura” and it was directed by Alon Schwarz, an Israeli. It’s a testament that there are immense sins that both sides have to atone for and it was one of the most soul crushing experiences I’ve had in years. I’ll also leave a link to an interview with the director. His views of him are very interesting:
https://povmagazine.com/tantura-director-alon-schwarz-talks-memory-and-healing/
I don’t think Hurricane glorifies the events of the October war crimes, quite the opposite.
Enough with the victim blaming. Europe has voted and wants Israel in. The ones who need to leave are the ones who keep bringing politics into the contest and caused all of the bad blood this year by unnecessary political statements.
Europe doesn’t give a sh*t about Israel being in Eurovision or not. The demographic that massively voted for Israel is the same demographic that has been massively voting for far-right/fasc*st parties to be elected for the Parliaments in their respective countries.
Your ignorance is screaming for help. Whoever voted for far right in Europe knows very well who is threatening your western values , culture and way of life.
It’s the growing numbers of Muslim immigrants plus their natural growth with many more kids per family. It has nothing to do with the insignificant number of jews in Europe. Haven’t read so much stupidity in my life .half an hour here and my IQ is on free fall
You’re being naive. The original name of the song was “October Rain”. Even the morally corrupt EBU couldn’t swallow that one.
They should have sent “The Screams of Noa”…
AI wants Israel in .
Glorification of war crimes? Really? Which line of the song exactly? ???????
All the lines. All the words. All the letters. And the spaces in between.
Specially the spaces in between. These people think we are fools.
Seems like you don’t know how to read. Good that at least you recognize spaces in between.
WE DONT CARE WHAT THIS OLD BICH WOMEN SAID
No need for that kind of language!
Pardon me,i need to write ZORA
You don’t know how to write. It’s ZORRA. And if you’re going to use that slur against her, the meaning of that song flew over your head.
LOL!!! 10/10 🙂
Another one of the loud minority, the silent majority is in favor of Israel, and it drives them crazy. Besides, hatred and jealousy make wrinkles
LOL… the “silent majority”. The real majority are for peace, respect and human decency for everyone.
I cringe everytime I hear someone say they’re the silent majority
Not out of fear, just because it’s such a ridiculous statement to make
People who claim to be in the “SiLeNt MaJoRiTy” are usually quite loud with their bigotry
Yeah there’s definitely a “type” which is consistent with everyone who claims to be part of it.
The expression “silent majority” comes originally from the American religious far-right. They think we were born yesterday. It’s all recycled hate.
For the hammer-sIckle far-leftist, everything is fasc/st/far-right, when one disagrees. Some people here would have been excellent prosecutors in the kangaroo antiZ/ionist trials in the Stalinist 1950s in Czechoslovakia.
Honey, you don’t give History lessons to me. In my country we also opposed the establishment of a communist dictatorship after overthrowing a fascist one. If you want to cultivate yourself, read a little about the Hot Summer of 1975 in Portugal. I’m old enough to hear the phrase “silent majority” from people like U.S. Senator Jesse Helms, a huge bigot, racist and segregationist.
Honey, noone is giving you history lessons, i was just refering to amazing similiarities between present-day and historical forms of totalitarian “antizionism”. And a small advice, cultivate yourself before telling others to do so. We Czechs had 40 hot summers because of the communist filth. so I know what i am talking about.
It’s you that are telling how others should think. I’m here only criticizing the criminal acts of a government.
To you I only answer with music:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFE6qQ3ySXE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFE6qQ3ySXE
I did not one single slogan for “Peace” among those demonstrations.
But i did saw: “intifada” ,”by all means” etc.
You want to see what u want to see. But deep inside – u know u r next
Please, you all: stop this anti-Israel campaign which will lead nowhere.
It’s just adding hate to hate.
And stop comparing Israel to Russia: this just remarks ignorance.
Why can’t we compare? Lol.
It’s not anti-Israel. It’s against the criminal actions of the Israeli government. Many Israeli citizens are vehemently opposed to what is happening. One example for you:
https://twitter.com/yanisvaroufakis/status/1790441926694482105
That is a good human being. And that one knows what is g3noc1de.
I’m hoping it leads to the Israeli war criminals going to the Hague tbh
To be fair they all must go, Bibi, H@m@s, the monsters commanding the IDF. All of them!
Looks like wiwibloggs decided to fully lean into the toxicity no matter how antisemitic their comment section is getting.
FU and your use of the word “antisemitism”! I’m sick of you people playing the victims. Stop manipulating words. Nobody here is against Jews or the Israeli people. We are against the criminal actions of their government and armed forces.

Yeah, nobody..
Israel Russia, please tell me what’s the difference, They are the same. Israel behaving same as what the Nazi did to them.
The comparison is apt: Russia and Israel have a very deep, dark relationship. Even the Israeli singer this year was born in Russia. You probably don’t want to draw attention to the oligarchs who stole from the collapse of the Soviet Union and who are now settled in Israel. Roman Abramovich, Eugene Shvidler, Mikhail Fridman, Boris Berezovsky, Vladimir Gusinsky, Vadim Moshkovich… the list goes on and on…

Have you been recently denied admission to an Arts academy? Just asking…
Arabs are semites as well, since Israel doesn’t value innocent Arab life and commits war crimes in g4za and steals land in the West Bank, it’s clear they are the anti-semites.
The EBU should be ashamed of themselves for allowing Israel to participate, intimidate and bully the other EUROpean delegations at the EUROsong festival.
Eurovision was born after World War II and in the middle of the Cold War, its objective was to promote a common European identity, at a time when the continent was seeking to rebuild itself. So from its birth the festival was politicized. “As it appears in its bases even today, each song represents the public television of a country, mind you, not an artist, not even a musical style. If it were a song contest it would be another talent show more, as they exist on so many televisions. Each song represents the public television of each country, and public,… Read more »

If you can’t respect the other contestants and their musical genres with grace, why should we give YOU any grace for actually supporting or being complacent with real life harm being done?

H@m@s released the hostages yet?
They agreed to a ceasefire deal which would release the hostages but Israel rejected the proposal.
Interesting no one seems to care about the palestinian hostages, you know, countless children put into prison and tortured by the israeli “army”…
Oh, gosh. More virtue signaling and whitewashing t3rr0r1sts
Your opinion doesn’t really count considering you’ve openly stated here, numerous times, that you are an Islamophobe.
If you’re filled with so much hate towards them, you’re clearly blinded and lack the empathy to see the g3n0c1de happening to them. It doesn’t matter if they’re slaughtered because you don’t like them anyway, and openly admit that.
So you can’t openly call this virtue signalling and whitewashing t3rr0r1sts when you don’t like them to begin with.
You don’t recognise the problem because you’re so hate filled.
Being against g3n0c1de is just basic humanity. Not just an opinion.
Prove I support t3rr0r? Show me the facts from such a bold statement to make? I want to see
The word is used by the UN, H@m@s also don’t own the word.
So again I ask, where is the proof that I support t3rr0r? You made a slanderous statement about me there, you need to back it up.
Proof please or it isn’t real
My tax money didn’t build H@m@s terror tunnels
Yet another statement that you cannot prove
A) Prove that I support t3rr0r
B) Prove that my tax built t3rr0r tunnels in G@z@
Two statements made by you about me, , BACK THEM UP WITH EVIDENCE
Since you don’t know the definition of human decency, I’ll show it to you:

Everyday someone else speaks out. Yet, the comments underneath never change. The lack of empathy for dying babies is astonishing.
I pray for the day people stop acting like it’s a sin to ban Israel from the contest because it’s “unfair” as if Palestine actually was participating in the contest, which they aren’t.
Actually i would like Israel and Palestine to compete together. Of course, without the political sh/t, but it would be a sign for me. And i know, that Palestinian TV is not an EBU member, Maybe, but only maybe we would have another Cyprus/Greece situation 🙂
Yes, that would be beautiful. I think the fans wouldn’t mind if they pulled a Greece/Cyprus for a few years, if that meant they were living in peace and with mutual respect.
I would like this too if the two state solution is the path the future holds and has the least strife among people, but that hinges on so many “if’s” it’s hard to foresee such a future
Oh, hush up! Why exclude Israel but allow Azerbaijan to participate? Azerbaijan is busy displacing Armenians and destroying centuries-old churches right now. Why am I not hearing calls for Azerbaijan to be excluded? How about France? You know what France has been busy doing in Africa. I invite you to take a look. How about all these fools clamoring for Turkey to return to the contest? Are they familiar with Turkey’s human rights record? Or do they care that Turkey has been occupying (and displacing the population of) north Cyprus? Shall we even get into Germany’s past? The UK’s past?… Read more »
blablabla. We’re talking about present. Go somewhere else.
i see the bots are really going at it. Do you think we don’t realise it? You’re either dumb or dumber.
Use the downvotes as a badge of honor.
Neither Azerbaijan, France or Turkey have a Jewish minority and thus aren’t interesting for antisemites. It’s the same principle as these confused kids never criticising Egypt for keeping the border with Plstine sealed closed, even though literally right next to Rafah and could be used for evacuation or at least humanitarian aid. Not a single word against Egypt comes out of these people’s mouth, because Egyptians aren’t Jews.
France has the highest population of Jews in the world apart from Israel and America.
Wow the Israeli bots REALLY did not like this post judging by the comment section…
Definitely
Breads and games. I learn a new phrase today.
Has anyone tried Moroccan Oil? is it worth it?
I heard it feels like the blood of dead pa1ist1nian babies on your skin. Then your skin rots like stinking flesh.
Good one!
Oh will have to pick up a couple of bottles then.
I’ll make sure to grab one for you too, doubt you could afford it otherwise
Why don’t they call it Israeli oil then? The answer is no one would buy it so they have to resort to cultural appropriation.
Is it the same blood that Jews made for the bread for Passover, when they kidnapped kids in the middle ages?
Or you are just antisemitic?
You seemed pretty content to feed your machine with the blood of Hind Rajab. The shame of that will never be washed away and you share in it.
If the EBU won’t do it immediately, I say start a petition to get millions of signatures to show the EBU WE want Israel out! That is what happened with Belarus and Russia – the people had to speak!
No one care about your antisemitic petition.
PUHSH IT DEEP TO YOUR AXXXX
Did you miss the televote on Saturday? We don’t want Israel out.
It’s worth remembering that as we type about a pop contest, practically no food or aid has entered G a z a for a week. There is a manmade famine there at the moment. A group of settlers called Tzav 9 are currently sitting in front of aid trucks, refusing to allow them to pass. The Israeli police will not move them and the Israeli intelligence services tell them where the trucks are going. They’ve attacked the aid trucks before and scattered the food across the countryside. A few miles away, people, mostly children, are starving. That’s the truth behind… Read more »
Those videos are both disturbing and disgusting.
Any other country would be sanctioned, isolated and embargoed.
More proof of intent regarding the crime of g3noc1de.
But yet the world is just “concerned that crimes MAY be taking place”.
Very quick to rightfully call Russia out though…
The West has been duped into thinking that Israel is an outpost of the West in the Middle East and so has been shamefully willing to overlook Israel’s crimes. The truth is that Israel is an outpost for Russia in the Middle East which, for utterly insane theological reasons, has been funded and armed by the West. Everything about the regime, especially under Netanyahu, is straight out of the Russian playbook. I think the West are waking up to that. When Russia invaded Ukraine, the first place the oligarchs left for was Tel Aviv. They’re there now, evading Western sanctions.… Read more »
With the absolute minimal mount of respect possible, p!ss off you absolute ghoul. I hope you find peace some time.
