Looking forward to them racing Germany to the last place.

I predict they will do well. They'll get sympathy votes from their supporters, and there's nothing their enemies can do to stop it

There's no way the Mossad isn't helping them at least to some place right in the middle.

I didn't expect anything from them and they still manage to disappoint me

Yikes. The genocide maniacs are in. Guess I won’t watch Eurovision this time around.

+1 reasons not to see it. The way they turned the results last year, was the drop for me. I'll only watch it when they remove the jury votes. All power to the viewers

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Israel can compete in this year’s Eurovision song contest, organisers have said, despite calls for it to be excluded over the Gaza war as Russia was after invading Ukraine.

The European Broadcasting Union said on Thursday it had conducted a review and decided Israel could participate in the kitsch annual pop extravaganza.

“The Eurovision song contest is a non-political music event and a competition between public service broadcasters who are members of the EBU.

The war in Gaza was triggered by Hamas’s 7 October attack on Israel, which resulted in the deaths of about 1,160 people, mostly civilians.

“In the case of Russia, the Russian broadcasters themselves were suspended from the EBU due to their persistent breaches of membership obligations and the violation of public service values,” he said.

Malmö is hosting the 68th edition after Swedish singer Loreen won the 2023 contest in Liverpool with the song Tattoo, watched by some 162 million viewers.


The original article contains 509 words, the summary contains 155 words. Saved 70%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

I mean, even if they won't be able to participate, it wouldn't lead to a change of mind from Netanjahu in this case. So stop the Hamas, give the people a structure, where are the neighbors countrys. Israel is not an evil, it's the leaders in they're politics, those are not represented by the population. Peace.
