Eurovision: Israel BOOED And Drowned Out By Free Palestine Chants 

Because they aren't semitic. 90% from Europe

😂🏆

Washington DC

😂 Yeah it's that famous American dream, the land of oppression and slavery😂

​@@Lindisfarnefarmer WRONG Most Israelis come from North Africa & Middle East.

Imperialist alliance building.

Eurovision for members of the European Broadcasting (something), which includes multiple Middle Eastern countries and Australia. Generally the other Middle Eastern countries boycott in protest of Israel’s participation.

They should be banned from everything.. Sports related

Probably because what they call a trope is reality

Technically, Israel is more European than Russia seeing as it's completely made up of EU and US colonists.

We don´t like bad company!

They are an european colony

Look at the Eurovision rules before hating Israel

😅I don't think the other nations in the Middle East want to play with Israel

Israel didnt do genocide, unbelievable

Neither ist Azerbeyzan or Australia. Algeria hast taken part too.

Israel is no where. Its Fake

​@@adnreasrost9135 Armenia and Georgia too. It's almost as if geography doesn't matter for eligibility to participate in Eurovision.

Most "Israelis" are from Europe.

"Eurovision" =/= Europe

Just goes to show how much of a European/US colonial state it is.

It's real name is Jeurovision. 😂

Australia is on it too lol

israel is in europe but not west bank!!!!!!

Weird how when you name off all the atrocities that a sovereign state commits against civilians the reaction to it changes when you name either Russia or Israel

It's about both

It’s about Israel’s the country. Not Jews world wide.

@@terrymckenzie8786 It is not a country it is the last European colonial project.

Quite clear it's about Jews actually

Keep telling this to yourself

It buys their politicians, see FOI in UK and AIPAC in the US

Mossad, the Israeli spy agency collects information on politicians or recruit them. A leading Labour politician once stated that Israel had too much influence in British politics.

Zbog slabosti I licemjerstva vlade tih drugih zemalja koje pomazu Izrael da cine genocid nad Palestincima.Sramotno.

Moroccan Oil are the sponsors of Eurovision. They are an Israeli brand.

Zionism.. read the Book of Benjamin Freedman

womp womp Israel is taking what was always theirs after they have been attacked by those terrorists, Russia attacked, banned, Israel is bashing the attackers, not banned

Doesn’t it also have insanely high mass immigration 🤔

THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN, Israel no2 in people's votes after Croatia. Even countries with huge Muslim community voted for Israel so the extremely loud minority should shut up and sit down

The far-right, populist party also has its stronghold in this southermost part of Sweden

its all just hypocritical

No it bloody well is not.

Its shocking anyone is banned. Its a singing competition.

​@@Quito266do you think any country is allowed to commit genocide as long as they're attacked first?

​@@zztopz7090why does that matter, just because it's a singing competition doesn't mean you have to ignore everything that a country is doing and let them compete anyway. Especially if that country is committing war crimes/genocide

More Israel than Russia, not only because Rusia is the most part of Europe

Soviet Israel.

100%

Israel shouldn’t be allowed in Eurovision to begin with

PERIOD!

She sings and speaks in the names of th victims.

THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN, Israel no2 in people's votes after Croatia so the extremely loud minority should shut up and sit down

She is there to sing. Period.

And the topic of the song embarrassed the terrorist enablers.

Since the European (polish) Netanyahu took power.

Well, all Israelis are from Europe and the US colonists.

They want us to believe that, and that we share the same values etcetera.

Not geographically, but culturally they are European. Majority of Israelis are European diaspora. Sort of like Haiti trying to join the African union.

Since they changed the flags of Europe to the EU . It's blue with stars like the Israel flag .

It's all part of the over pampering and mollycoddling of Israel by western countries.

Israel has been in eurovision for over 50 years...

They're a European colony so it makes sense

Mahometans' entitlement is a joke

Inform yourself. You have to be part of EBU to participate and not be part of Europe .. Marokko Lebanon and a couple more could also participate but they chose not to

Blah blah blah as Greta once said. THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN, Israel no2 in people's votes after Croatia so the extremely loud minority. Even the countries with a big Muslim community put Israel in the top of the popular votes.

​@@elenabob4953lmao yeah because the vote wasn't rigged or anything 😂

​@@elenabob4953literally this, they came second on the public vote. These losers have been crying loudly all year.

young people brainwashed in lies in our Marxist activist infested state schools.

@@elenabob4953 So you imply that the Muslim people in those countries voted for Israel? Show statistical data in detail... you can't.

You can have your feelings on what is happening in the world, but that kind of rhetoric makes you sound like a far left wing cartoon cut-out. It's half the reason why the general public increasingly associates left wing politics with bigotry, antisemitism and many more -isms besides that. Which is a shame as at least the old left had a point about class, healthcare etc.

Azerbaijan is also part of Eurovision. So is Armenia, Georgia. And so was Turkey until 2013. I wouldn't conclude ideological assumptions of European settler colonialism based on a song contest man.

​@@NP1066 Turkey is partially in Europe so it makes sense, most of Istanbul is on the European side alongside several other smaller towns. As for Georgia and Azerbaijan, they are at least on the very border between Asia and Europe (Caucasus (Kavkaz) Mountains are one of the borders between the continents). Armenia is the only country you mentioned to be fully in Asia since it's just sliiightly below the demarcation line, but they are close enough and culturally very close to Georgia and Russia for it to feel wrong to leave them out. Israel on the other hand is WAYYY OUTSIDE the European continent and geographically it would make more sense to include Syria, Lebanon or Morocco even before them.

@@Ivanus59nope no sense at all to include a land in the MENA or the Caucasus in Eurovision. They are not Europeans.

Australia being part of Eurovision really undermines its status as an independent country too with its links to the British Empire seemingly still intact ? 🤪

Very disrespectful

hahah well said

Brilliant

@@susan4-6-14 Now they know they are Outcasts by their own doings.

Fantastic

Different situations. Whatever you think of Israel and what is happening, they were brutally attacked first. Russia wasn't attacked but simply went to annex Ukraine.

Because Ukraine didnt do an October the 7th on Russia to start a war. Russia invaded Ukraine the same as hamas/palestinians invaded israel on October the 7th.

Tu pensi che prima dell'invasione russa i nazisti ucraini non abbiano ammazzato i russofoni dal 2014 in poi..? E non sai che prima dell'attacco di Hamas ce ne sono stati tanti nel corso dei decenni da parte di Israele verso i palestinesi tra l'altro tenuti prigionieri nella propria terra? Come una prigione a cielo aperto? Non ti dice niente? Informati e capirai che i palestinesi sono le vere vittime incomprese e abbandonate dal mondo intero!

because they didn't start the war, are you really that dense

@@banedon8087 what a load of crap! You mean: "brutally attacked first after years of Ukr killing the people of Dombas and the other provinces and after the coup instigated by the Nuland and co." Get your facts right!

At least the seat will not be filled up with my presence. And as someone said , its easy for SVT sadly to do a commercial or something to try to hide the booing. And you give money to EBU. That is why I never have visit Gaza even if I wanted to because did not want to give money to Israel which you have to do.

AND THE FACT THAT PEOPLE DON'T WATCH IT ON TELEVISION DOESN'T MEAN ECONOMIC LOSSES? I IMAGINE YES.

It does. Isrl places high stock in favourable p.r. event such as these. This was bound to happen, it was a shame not more artists boycotted it B.D.S

None. They know they have many enemies since 2,000 years after being expelled to Europe from Judea by the Romans.

Message that Jihad took over Europe, thats the message.

Well she was giggling so don't worry for her.

@@Emy-fv5nyI saw Palestinian children giggling too. Same rule apply?

@Hyoungje wouldn’t it be amazing if all that israel was doing to Palestinian children was just “bullying”? While I disagree with the booing of an individual based on their nationality, she is there representing Israel and praised the terrorist organization IDF, so I definitely get the urge. Let me turn it around as you tried to - if someone was praising Hamas and got booed after, would you think it was bullying?

Wow! I absolutely love it 😍

Freeing us? Into the welcoming arms of Sharia? oh joy...

Freeing? Free to be what? a homicidal antisemitic killer??? Haaa give me a break

are you volunteering to show us how to fly off a rooftop? oh well , good luck with your turning point history, alot of twist and turns on your journey.

If you want peace, how should it look - all hostages returned unharmed? - Hamas seize to exist? - Israel seize with all attacks? Something you want to add?

Israel has competed 45 times since 1973. Eurovision is not a European competition, it's a competition held by the European Broadcasting Union which has many members outside of Europe.

​@@Smulenifyit's a bought and paid for propaganda contest.. nothing to do with real music anymore.

Any country in the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) can theoretically enter, including some in the Middle East and North Africa. Morocco took part on one occasion.

Cypress is also not Europe ,so????

​@@igoralexandershnaidstein1599 Yes it is

It says that Israel has cultural ties to Europe, like "Palestine" has cultural ties to Arabia 1000 miles away. Less than half of Israelis have European ancestry, most are from the Middle Eastern countries, descended from the 800,000 ethnically cleansed in 1948.

Any country in the EBA aka the European Broadcasting Area can participate. They also had Tunisia participate and Georgia and Azerbaijan participate. Australia participates because they just love it so much.

Part of the eu

They were expelled from Europe. Makes sense.

Just imagine if they win

They nailed it.

Should be the winning entry

😅😅😅👍

The flood is coming hallelujah

The crowd should win the contest.

Russia and hamas are literally allies

Not even close

Israel didn’t even start the war and is defending itself against hamas while russia started the largest war in europe since ww2. Maybe you got double standards? Or failed basic history class?

@@E-75enjoyer defending its not the problem attacking with no regards for civilians is

@@intruder6570 Get your facts straight, if Israel had no regards for civilians, nothing would be alive after Oct 8

Duh

Does she represent Israel or Luxembourg?

Excuse you?

So we're just hating people based on their background now? Don't you see when your hate becomes bigotry?

I would've potentially let her off the hook since she can't choose where she was born, but then she said she dedicated her win to her brother..... With the song title and him being in IDF that doesn't feel right

@@NP1066 yes. If you're representing a current genocide then all bets are off background or foreground as both are having an affect on the situation.

Most of russia is in Asia

Europe is considered a continent by most people, but it’s neither a separate landmass, nor a separate geological unit. The only reason we say it’s a continent is because the Ancient Greeks divided the world around Greece as such. And while yes, Africa is connected to Asia (ignoring Suez Canal), and the Americas are connected (ignoring Panama canal), their link is very narrow. Europe is connected to Asia through the entire North-South length of Russia. So I’m convinced that Europe is not a continent, but a peninsula in Asia/Eurasia. Some might argue that Europe is a continent because it’s culturally/geopolitically distinct. But I’d say that applies to many regions like the Indian subcontinent or the Middle East. Edit: my point is that there is no non-arbitrary definition of continent that would apply to Europe. It’s not a separate landmass, or has its own tectonic plate, or the only culturally distinct region in its landmass.

Australia does participate as well - and it seems like it is not in Europe as well.

@@JenniferFlopez098A very large part is a major part of Europe. What's your point?

@@douglasmacari8707 23% of Russia is in Europe, 77% is in Asia. What's your point?

As far as UEFA is concerned. My understanding is that Israel come under that umbrella because it would be too complicated from a security point of view for them to play within the same federation as their neighbours. Seems like a sensible reason if true, but certainly does not explain why they are included in Eurovision. Then again, Australia have had a run out in the contest in the past so it just looks like anything goes.

If I buy two rolls then they are mine.

Well, because Israel is a European settler colonialist State, so it's appropriate. Eurovision is indeed a disgusting parade of EU-NATO propaganda...

Thats the craziest part. A lot of commentators pretend this is just a Benjamin Nethanyahu issue, but he and the policy are widely popular in Israel. People think Israelis want the war to end, but in reality they want death, destruction and to annex more land.

They started off begging the Naszis for an alliance in the 1940s so big surprise.

Did you see that the singer wanted to perform a propaganda song initially, which got rejected and then she tried to submit another political/propaganda song which was rejected too? So there's a public record of her own politics, she's in line with what they are doing to the palestinians

Israel is not committing a genocide and Hamas started this war!

HER SONG IS NOT A PROPAGANDA SONG!! Its a song based upon a genocidal massacre on Oct 7

I agree. Boycotting is helpful AND attending to boo is. However, as I am not attending, I will not be viewing and giving them ad money. Though I may look online after for clips of Israel being booed

HOSTAGES!!!! You do realize hamas has Israeli hostages, but of course you conveniently forget the facts as to why Israel is defending itself!!!

@@lillygordon9121 nobody is forgetting the hostages but the IDF. A ceasefire and prisoner exchange would end the slaughter of thousands that is occurring. And on top of this, you can't just claim something is a fact and then say a belief. "Israel is defining itself" is not a fact. If October the 7th makes 40,000 dead Palestinians acceptable, then the entire occupation of Palestine for 76 years made October the 7th acceptable. And we all know that was an atrocity. People can push for an end of the bloodshed in gaza without adding (just a reminder guys I care about the hostages too) to the end. They do this because western governments are sending Israel tax money to make weapons. Last time I checked the government weren't using tax money to keep the hostages locked up.
