Israel's Entry In Eurovision Song Contest Is Causing People To Lose Their Minds

There's a lot of talk about Eurovision 2024. Imagine "American Idol" at the peak of its popularity, but instead of individuals competing, you have entire countries. Each country picks a performer to represent it and the winner gets bragging rights. The pro-Hamas crowd is very involved with this year's Eurovision competition, seeing as Israel is competing. Here's Israeli singer Eden Golan. Israel ישראל @Israel: “Heart stopping performance. We love you Eden. מלכה שלנו 🤞🇮🇱” -- The competition is being held in Malmö, Sweden, and Golan has been advised not to leave her hotel room because of the anti-Israel protests. Rebel News @RebelNewsOnline: “Israeli singer Eden Golan, representing her country at the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö, Sweden, has been ordered by security officials to remain in her hotel room due to large pro-Palestinian protests taking place outside.”

Who knew Sweden was so pro-Palestinian? Even Greta Thunberg showed up to protest (we're not sure how she got there without using fossil fuels). Check out this crowd: Visegrád 24 @visegrad24: “Around 15 000 anti-Israel protesters are marching through Malmö right now in protest against Israel being allowed to compete in Eurovision Song Contest. They are chanting: “We will crush zionism” - “There’s only 1 solution. Intifada revolution” - Sweden 2024…” https://video.twimg.com/amplify_video/1789319791997550593/vid/avc1/884x488/nUlqCB64EnIM25UC.mp4 -- Thinks are sketchy inside the competition as well: Oli London @OliLondonTV: “Finnish Eurovision representative REFUSES to announce 12 points judges score to Israel during rehearsal. The woman instead says ‘Ireland’, leading to the host giving her a chance to correct herself- but instead she again says ‘Ireland.’ Host: “I think we have somewhat of a technical problem.” The head judge then correctly announces Israel as the winner of Finland’s judges vote.” https://video.twimg.com/amplify_video/1789294173260005376/vid/avc1/1078x672/fCGUMxrabUtH_6LM.mp4

Host: “I think we have somewhat of a technical problem.” The head judge then correctly announces Israel as the winner of Finland’s judges vote. "Wonder Woman" star Gal Gadot, who's taken flak for being Israeli, called Golan ahead of the final: Oli London @OliLondonTV: “Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot calls Eden Golan ahead of Eurovision final. “You know I faced so many haters and my movies being boycotted in some countries who didn’t want the movies because of me. It doesn’t matter at all. The haters are the ones losing.”” https://video.twimg.com/amplify_video/1789342402919989248/vid/avc1/720x864/Hbpg9QULEYf1jnWK.mp4 -- The final was held on Saturday and Switzerland walked home with the prize. Dr. Eli David @DrEliDavid: “This comment wins the internet for today 🤣” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GNN8oPfX0AA4sUV?format=jpg&name=medium -- Indeed. leekern @leekern13: “Sure - it’d be nice if the Palestinians could be part of Eurovision one day - but the last time Palestinians entered a music festival it was to rape, murder, torture and kidnap children. That’s a big nil points for me.”

I believe our own Fuzzy Chimp has a post coming about Ireland's entry this year, because they've got quite a story: Oli London @OliLondonTV: “Irelands Eurovision team look like something out of a horror movie.” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GNUIfwrWYAAS_T-?format=jpg&name=medium -- Ireland's representative 31-year-old Bambie Thug, who identifies as a “Goth-Gremlin-Goblin-Witch” and practices "neo-pagan blood magic" during menstruation—says she cried when she heard that Golan had made the finals. -- Henry McKean @HenryMcKean: ““I cried with my team.” Ireland 🇮🇪 Eurovision finalist Bambie Thug is asked how they felt when Israel qualified for the #EUROVISION final.” https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1789067915972444160/pu/vid/avc1/720x1280/NQxaKWl_m0BKXYIQ.mp4 -- How sad. The People @WonPeople: “Imagine hating Jewish people so much that you cry when you hear a few of them are competing in a song competition.” Imagine the streets of Malmö being occupied by thousands of people with Palestinian Flags protesting because an Israeli is competing in a singing competition. Who knew Sweden was so pro-Palestinian?
