@@keahnig164Israel being allowed to participate is being seen as an endorsement of the war they are waging in Palestine. Russia and Belarus are unable to participate, why should Israel? It has also created tension as many Israeli commentators are talking badly about the participants who have been open about supporting Palestine. Eurovision is inherently political, and there’s suspicions of foul play when it comes to Joost’s disqualification. Italy’s pre-voting supposedly being leaked showing such a high percent for Israel is also being called into question, as while I don’t think her song is bad at all, I don’t think it’s good enough for it to gain 40% of all the votes.
@GrahamClarke-yb4cu Ireland claimed to boycott the Eurovision if Israel were to participate, yet Bambi still decided to perform anyways, backtracking everything she has been virtue signaling about. She also called to boycott the competition even though she herself decided to partake in it. Bambi also got away with political statements on stage through make up and didn't get kicked out or even fined for it even though it's against the EBU rules. She wore a kaffiye and cried about how Israel made it to the finals (very childish behaviour) and is now stirring more drama. She is now calling for Israel to be kicked out of the Eurovision because SHE doesn't want to compete aginst them. And she rememebered to do this hours before the finals start. (Seems like fear due to Israel being placed 2 in polls with Ireland being placed 5). Sorry, but this is absolutely pathetic. A 20 year old girl who is stuck in her hotel out of security reasons, has thousands of people threatening her outside her building, sending actual death threats, and has to suffer other contestants bullying her during her interviews. I think it's obvious who is being treated like shite. Somehow this 20 year old, second youngest in the contest, has more class and maturity than some of these artists.
@@troyyrob sorry, I don't exactly acquaint myself with all 37+ artists' pronouns and sexuality. Weird that out of the entire thing, thats what you cling to. What pronouns does Bambi prefer then? Bully? Hypocrite? Clout seeker?
@@LeeLe412 You're the one who is talking out of your hoop. Bambie changed the ogham inscription as soon as they were informed it was in breach of the rules. The new inscription said, "Crown The Witch".They did not ever say they weren't going to perform at Eurovision and did not tell anyone else to boycott. They repeatedly expressed solidarity with Palestine, they signed the letter put out by artists and creatives to show that solidarity, and said they understand why people are boycotting Eurovision as a form of protest. As for the 20 year old being in her hotel room, that is because she is being kept away from the other contestants. NOT by Eurovision, but by her MINDERS. She can't even speak with anyone she is competing against. The minders are the ones who are manufacturing this victimhood situation. Where is the evidence of threats against her or hate speech? Can you provide sources or links to that information? If you can provide that information I will look at it.
During the dress rehearsal for the grand Eurovision final in Malmö tonight, the French entry made a peace appeal during their rehearsal. The French artist skipped a part of the song and stated that he had always dreamed of standing on this stage. Then he said thank you and skipped the last chorus.

We need to know the full story of why Netherlands was kicked out, but if it was sincerely because of hateful remarks to a female staff member. We shouldn’t celebrate that and understand the EBU decision.

If they made the decision to compete alongside Israel, the least they can do is own up to it and be adults.

Very shameful behaviour from these countries
I just saw that! (was lowkey stalking all the participants instas, since yk drama) this year's eurovision is crazier than I thought it would be I was so hyped in the beginning, but now I'm lowkey losing interest, which I never thought I'd say about Eurovision since I've been watching since I was in the womb (no joke btw, dad watched ESC since the teens)
Someone from the israeli staff said he film the event and she got really mad and started shouting and giving him the finger im not exactly sure if that’s related but there is a lot of up coming drama
Irish rep screamed at him, not Greece. According to him they were filming Eden rehearsing and the Irish woman thought he was filming her and started screamming at him and giving him the bird, he said he will post the video of the incident later
A here we go again with blaming the Israeli delegation based on nothing. B so you are claiming that the greek performer got mad because someone was taking pictures at literally one of the most photographed events in the world right now, give me a break.
@@ivenotalent The journalist is Swedish from the Swedish newspaper called Aftonbladet, you can see it on the mic she is holding too. She also doesn't have an Israeli accent, but a very pronounced Swedish one. My god, stop with the propoganda
Joost Klein used physical violence against a photographer from the Swedish production. Marina from Greece played her going to sleep and yawned in front of the cameras when Eden Golan began to speak. Whats wrong with people??
Ethnic cleansing committed by Israel is wrong with Israel which gets to participate 35.000 dead people in 7 months is what is wrong Severe violation of jus in bello is what is wrong The deadliest war of the 21st century till now is what is wrong People looking the other way is what is wrong
Oh no marina did something like that ? 😮 ohhh that makes me sad. I thought I vote for her. But I can’t support her anymore…so sad. Where can I watch the scene?
@meribel2926 On marinna, as another guy mentioned, she also had a high fever and had taken A LOT of medication in order to perform, so the degree to which the incident was intentional is questionable
EBU should have found another patreon instead of maroccan oil and forbid to Israel to take place. How can you allow a country that is not even in Europe and is also- and most importantly -bombing an area, to participate ? Israel doesn't have the European values. They see terrorism, they start a war. France didn't do that although they had much terrorism. And no other European country did this when Europe had the serious terrorism problem. Because of the values we have in Europe. And Israel doesn't much us. They haven't reached us and this way, they won't
