Israel's Eurovision Song Contest competitor says she is 'overwhelmed' at making grand final
#Eurovision #Israel #Gaza
She's the on that is putting people at risk? Not the terrorists that are making threats? I guess it's easier to blame the victim when you have no balls like that reporter.
I wonder why ebu disqualified Joost for saying something to a photographer, but didn't desqualified this reporter for such a stupid and unappropriated question.
Eden has won Eurovision! She's popular all over the WORLD ....I live in France and she's all over the news!!!! STRENGTH AND GLORY TO ISRAEL
Yes!!! Love from GB ❤❤❤
Eden is amazing. She’s only 20 years old yet has such an incredible resilience. Facing booing, bullying, threats, violence and so much hate, yet still standing tall and being so polite and kind ❤️
Absolutely disgusting, shameless behavior Israeli delegation... They harass contestants with so much confidence and without facing any consequences.
This is yet another disgraceful thing they’ve done this year, is there a limit? Their presence by itself created such a negative atmosphere for everyone there, both contestants and the crowd watching.
All of this could’ve been avoided if they were banned from competing, all of it.
Shame on EBU.
most things are made in CHINA.
resilience is made in PALESTINE
@@Milka088They should be banned for defending their country from genocide. Flawed logic my friend.
She freely chooses to show up for a country committing war crimes. Kinda telling on what she agrees with
Creó una atmósfera negativa porque la pobre estaba rodeada de periodistas y cantantes naz-is@@Milka088
The "Guarding of Eden."
SHE WAS AMAZING.
She came from Asia with a flawless American accent to win Eurovision. What a "miracle". LOL
Congratulations to her 👏 ❤ 😊
I'd like to see her do a cover of the old Dave Clark 5 tune 'Bits and Pieces.' Should go down very well.
- Netanyahu let the attack happen on his own country, despite knowing about the attack 3 days before it happened.
- Music festival was organised with lot of foreigners just 3 miles away from the border. On whose order?

Unfortunately- world is totally upside-down now- in terms of terrorism against Israel and Ucraine. My best wishes to these countries and their citizens, world must finally open its eyes !!! 🇺🇦💪🇮🇱💗
Terrorism against Israel. When they are slaughtering thousands of children. What is wrong with you..... Literally make me ashamed to be human

Yet clearly not bigger than Israel's fascist government's hate for unarmed children, women, and their own hostages.
“Everyone knows today that Israel is a terrorist entity.” - Manu Pineda (European Parliamentarian) on 2024-02-01, during farmers protest.
Though not as big as Israel's government's hatred of unarmed children, women, and its own hostages.
She’s a hero! Never complaining or blaming. Compare the hateful statements of Bambi Thug who hates Golan but proclaims she has love for all.

The Journalist should be ashamed. Its not Eden who is a Terrorist. What a stupid question.
She represents apartheid.
@@mmoghbelliyou are a fool
@@mmoghbelli
No.
She was born much longer after the problems which were there right from the beginning.
The 2 State Solution was offered to ALL people there by the former UNO (British Mandat) but was rejected by the Arabs.
There have been many trials to receive a solution, agreement - but they were all rejected. It was not Israels fault.
The Arabs wanted always more and more and mainly to let the incredible HIGH Money transfers from the west world flowing.
Unfortunately this money was NEVER used for humanitarian aid it was abused for things/stuff around Terror including a whole Terror Tunnel System (hundreds of Millions wasted and abused for this).
I think the settlement policy by Israel is wrong but much MORE wrong is to set up a Terror Regime who want no peacefiul co existence and want to destroy a whole Country with its people.
The young Singer was never asked how she sees the things. But she says that she wants peace.
It was a shame by this criminal and stupid people to set up a war of Hate against this woman. And it was against H E R (!!!!) human right. You cannot demand human rights for yourself but are not willing to give it to others .....
Of course Antisemite and troublemaKer Thunberg must be there too.
You represent lunatics@@mmoghbelli
yes, bullying from NATO, terrorism from ISrael, and Hatred from Zionists, had been defeated, people wasnt there to hear the Singer, But to support Paelestine
I hear that song it is a masterpiece! Israelis are super talented!
True
She responded to that troll with class and professionalism. Make us proud, Eden.
yes, because Netanyahu Killing thousands of civilians do not make proud anyone, except the psycho-fanatics of the Zionism.
We need her to respond to your trolls comments as well.

@@andresfelipeod6819 well they gave her 5th position in the whole content
Shes gonna go far, that song was extremely powerful and so was her performance. She may not have won the biased competition she was in, but she gained worldwide fame and I feel people around the world are more reasy to hear her talented voice.
Talk about blaming the victim!!! But she responds beautifully and gracefully. Such a classy young woman!
The victim? Are you mentally damaged or what?
As a kid I learned that there's no such thing as dumb questions, I guess that was a lie... what joke of a 'journalist' would ask something like that..
What a stupid question. If the others are scared, they can choose not to come. She shouldn't have to bow down. Tomorrow night, she will be getting my vote. Love from Sweden!❤
What a stupid question from this polish journalist (if one can call this men a journalist)
Normal question... On Thursday, local police reported that over 10,000 people, including Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, marched through the city in a pro-Palestine protest that directly called on Eurovision organizers to drop Israel from the contest.

@@christopherwall2121 what planet you on
This is how it is when the victim becomes guilty, the persecuted becomes the persecutor, the murdered becomes the murderer, the good becomes evil. This is how it has always been and this is how it is now, reminiscent of dark periods in the history of the world and the Jewish world, they were always persecuted for being Jews, always accused in vain, always looking for who Blame and find them. And so also in the middle of a press conference for a singing competition, you find a 20-year-old girl, the ambassador of a country at the moment all the poisonous arrows are directed towards her and against her, and it seems that she is in a shooting range and not in an interview about her participation in the world. And the Dutch singer smirks and mocks her, the Greek singer yawns and dozes off as if she wants to To draw attention and incite the conversation to her and not to the interviewee herself. Disrespect, disdain, lack of humanity, lack of compassion, and the question of a disgruntled and frustrated journalist who does not understand his soul after receiving a crushing answer from that brave, smart, honest, decent girl and a real fighter. Eden, You showed them who you are, who you represent and why Israel is in this competition. Good luck, beloved girl. We are all with you, in fire and water, amidst all the hatred and the dark times, we have always seen the light and we will always see it and be a part of it.

Yes because her useless song is more important than a g3nocide.
The only one who is in danger is Eden. BBC wrote that she is confined to her hotel room because of death threats. How typical of you know whom to accuse a person being persecuted of being a persecutor…
Not only that, she needed security at the level of a Prime Minister and because of the fear that something would happen to her parents, she asked them to stay in Israel. Those reporters always like to blame the victims
Mega lolz
Yeah blame the victim. That's the tactics of the anti-Semites

its hard to leave politics out of art when art is using politics ,-) why did she go and sing about the attack? big mistake!
@@motulifelikefigures1987 She isn't because she wasn't allowed. Why does the Netherlands have to praise the EU concept in their song and rave about "no borders"? That too is a political message. Especilly in a time when more and more people are voting for actually closing the borders a bit more

Eden Golan is a person like any other. I find it shameful and very shameful that she receives so much hate. She doesn't do anything to anyone, she just wants to perform at a music festival. It would be very nice if we left politics aside and concentrated on the music festival. Eden Golan has the right to be treated with respect like everyone else.
