KISS Frontman Gene Simmons condemned a pro-Palestinian boycott of the Eurovision Song Contest next week in Tel Aviv.
“Let music be heard throughout the world, whatever your political point of view is,” the rocker told The Daily Caller.
Eurovision is the world’s largest non-sporting televised event, in which each of 41 countries enter a song and compete over three rounds. The country that wins in any given year becomes the host the following year (Israeli singer Netta won last year for her song “Toy”).
Advocates of the “Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions” (BDS) movement have called on broadcasters to refuse to televise the event, but none have agreed to drop the highly rated program.

Scratch a BDS proponent, and you’ll find an antisemite. Hating Israel is just another way to hate the Jews.
As I read it, seems the bds assclowns are all lefties. You know, sort of like naught-Zees. So, was “OZ” code for the naught-Zees?

His real name is Chaim Witz and he was born in Israel. I agree with him on many things.
It all comes down to ratings so it’s doubtful any country would drop coverage. It’s not much of a big deal in America but it’s huge in Europe. Everybody tunes in. We’ve been watching it since we moved to Spain. Still haven’t quite figured out how it all comes together. Israel isn’t in Europe but it’s the European broadcasting union range, which still doesn’t explain how Australia fits in LoL.
Australia? Canada, the US and Mexico are closer to Europe than the land down under.
Well supposedly Australia was invited in 2015 as a one off for the 60th anniversary of Eurovision but they have been coming back ever since.
What do the muslims in congress have to say about this?....
