I have always sympathised with Israel.
I cannot now be comfortable looking at awful Netanyahu and his hard line government's actions.
I'm pleased Israel haven't been thrown out of Eurovision although they've had to change the lyrics of their song I believe.
Which I don't see why they had to stop all.
As for the article.
I won't give it the time of day myself..
Neither it appears has the media, since it was known barely weeks after Olly was announced as our entrant.
After he announced he was on Strictly..
Anyhow I can't get the chorus of his song out my head so all I hope for him, is he does really well.
If he doesn't, well it won't be because he didn't try his very best.
I just wish him the very best of luck..

Tbh, the whole Israel and Palestine war is unfortunate imo, basically regular people on both sides are getting brainwashed into hating the other side and risking their own lives on top of it, whilst Netanyahu and the leaders of Hamas both hide away from the horror that they've created, just rinse and repeating the same horror story over and over again, they're both villains imo.
And like you Joey, I do feel sorry for Israel, because thanks to Netanyahu and his supporters, Nazi sentiment is creeping back into the mainstream again when it comes to what people think about the Jewish people.
I'm not saying that Olly is a Nazi btw, I'm just thinking about some of the other stories that I've heard about recently, like the bizarre propaganda that SNL put out for the three University Principals.
To show you what I'm on about.
Real:
SNL version:
And yes, SNL did take the piss out of the woman attacking the two women for saying "it depends on the context," on if it's okay to incite genocide on the Jewish community, instead of ridiculing the two women that thought that those answers were okay.
Let's just say, apart from showing people this particular video, I will never go near their content for new stuff ever again, they literally tried to defend these two lunatics.
And hopefully Olly can do well, Joey.
