    Thousands may have protested against Israel's participation - but hundreds of thousands of Eurovision fans who took part in the voting and who voted Israel's fantastic song into the final clearly have a very different opinion.

    @@BerenikiRegina There are also a SEPARATE group of people able to vote for Eurovision that don't support Israel,🤡 how is that a hard thing to comprehend. Moreover even those who DIDN'T vote could have voted for Palestine, and that likely would have happened if Palestinians competed in Eurovision.

    Did you guys tell your viewers that there were over 200 organizations funding these riots did you tell them that most of them are from foreign countries? Did you tell them that interviewing the students they were getting paid 10 bucks an hour to stand there and yell so the students American students do not actually have any commitment on this they were getting paid their students don’t work for 10 bucks an hour to stand there and yell, but what’s more important is that you’re not reporting to your viewers about who funded all of this and why it was happening and when it was happening oh and by the way, we still have our American citizens hostage in those countries that our president isn’t doing anything about it used to be 15 years ago. The president wasn’t actually doing something for the citizens in a foreign country where they were being held hostage news media talked about it, not anymore you guys work for the Democrat party and if it makes the Democrat party look bad, you will not report it
