Euro Controversy
We guess you’ve all heard about the controversy swirling around Israel’s entry into the Eurovision contest by now. It seems that they don’t like to fact that Israel’s popularly elected entry, the Teapacks, are singing about the legitimate feelings and fears of their people. G-d forbid right? Maybe we should just sing about how blue the sky is or how,… oh forget it. This is an argument we will probably never win, but the song is a definite contender in the contest.

This song MUST GO to the Eurovision

Isn’t it ironic that “the Europe of Freedoms” wants to ban a song while is trying to be the champion of the Freedom of Speech cause?
I’ve heard the song and I think, it will be passed if the Eurovision committee have a bit of common sense. In fact it hasn’t mentioned when, where or who is going to “Push the bottom”, so that’s why I wonder where the controversy is.

I’m disgusted that Israel is using a contest that’s supposed to represent peace and unity to stage a bigoted, self-absorbed piece of political hate-mongering. If this truly represents the feelings of the Israeli people, no wonder every single one of your neighbouring countries wants you gone. Oh, and what’s the only established nuclear power in the middle east again? Israel? Oh yes, what a bunch of self-righteous hypocrites.

Hmm, I see that my comment about Israel being the only established nuclear power in the middle east has been removed. You claim this song is an expression of the “legitimate feelings and fears” of the Israeli people. So was the Holocaust an expression of the “legitimate feelings and fears” of the German people? Just because someone has strong feelings about something, doesn’t make it right. Or excusable.
