Israel 2026: Noam Bettan - Michelle

[joanne]

Imagine starting COMPLETELY ILLEGAL WARS and committing GENOCIDE and thinking, “yes, what we need is another UNICORN, let’s pop a slutty dance break in too!!!”.

israel is neither starting “completely illegal wars” nor “committing genocide.” also jews didn’t steal christian babies for blood rituals, poison wells during the black death, harvest organs, control governments, the media, or the weather. hence, the unicorn lyrics would’ve been a PERFECT major slap in the face to the girlies continuing the legacy of ancient antisemitic blood libels against jews… but that’s just my opinion!

israel is neither starting “completely illegal wars” nor “committing genocide.”

"the girlies" including almost every European government in the case of the former, and The UN, the ICC, and genocide scholars for the latter

I thought this shit was supposed to have stopped?

If you look at the new rules, they are fairly flimsy and don’t actually prevent much.

And if they do find a breach then Martin Green will consider writing a strongly-worded email.

 

[Madison]

Are the full rules available online?

Are the full rules available online?

No, just a summary, which partly explains the collective shitfit about Finland’s violin.

[Suomi]

I’m sure Martin Green is so darn mad that it’s gonna be mostly head

To be honest I’m pleasantly surprised by any kind of intervention. It’s more than I expected and it’s provided clarity on what constitutes “disproportionate” promotion.

 

[dmlaw]

Any word on whether Malta have been told to take down their poster on that Manchester roundabout?

The EBU each time Israel brakes the rules

We’re just so used to the EBU’s mediocrity!

 

[Voodoo]

Even the haters are enjoying the song!

 

[Lucille]

It had my pussy squirting on Tuesday.

And my anus!

He has headphones on so I’m pretty sure he’s bopping to something else.

Maybe it’s SWEAT by Melanine C!

 

[Agneeta]

I believe he's listening to KNEECAP

 

[Agneeta]

I have accidentally heard this and it is of course absolutely fucking shit.

Fuck off Israel, you have ruined Eurovision and let's not forget Palestine.

The 2026 Israeli Eurovision hopeful, Noam Bettan, has released his entry, Michelle, co-written by Yuval Raphael, who drew attention in last year’s contest by finishing second in Basel.

Oh this is the guy who said all Gazans are animals.

I find it genuinely staggering that in 2026 there are still people who are fine with Israel.

 

[FannyFaudrey]

Rule-breaking for votes? Formal warning.
Genocide? No problem!
