    It is disgraceful that a country that is actively committing a genocide is allowed to participate.

    Russia was excluded from the Eurovision for less.

    Allowing Israel to perform has turned this into a Hunger Games Dystopia.

    I was there! Felt great being among so many people caring. I like in a smaller town and have been protecting every weekend, but were usually maybe 30-60 people. And it has felt like we were so alone.
