I am horrified by the recent wave of antisemitism and was disgusted by last year's Eurovision Song Contest, though heartened to see the high number of votes the UK awarded Israel.

Disgusting act by RTE. Linehan is a well known supporter of Israel and opponent of Islamic extremism. Also the major public voice opposing trans ideology that has Ireland hooked. To show this Fsther Ted against Linehan wishes and at the same time as Enoch Burke remains in prison show RTE. as bull ins China shops. Haven’t a clue about irony. Most of Ireland will be watching Eurovision anyway on the BBC.

Antisemitism is a dreadful form of racism. Enough is enough

Down with this sort of thing! Seriously, this is appalling, ugly antisemitism. Ireland is so much better than this.

Blatant and shameless antisemitism from RTE. And pathetic that they would air that episode of Fr Ted, when they wouldn't touch the series at the start, due to the status quo in Ireland at the time.

RTE should be ashamed of themselves

You are facilitating mass antisemitism, under the cloak of ‘antizionism’ (the right of Jews to their own state; one of the most basic rights of humanity anywhere). Attacks on Jewish citizens mount daily; the worst blood libels are casually shared at middle class dinner tables. You are dragging the Jewish world towards a tragic end; and using a pro-Jewish writer, whom you and your ilk have already shamelessly excoriated for not bowing to the mass formation hysteria of trans, to exhibit your ignorance and bigotry is the height of hubris.

Does RTE think it's funny to replace the eurovision program with satire (brilliantly written satire by the way)? What kind of precedent does that set? Is war funny now? Regardless of what side you're on - this is wholly inappropriate.

RTE is a left wing hot bed of political propaganda. RTE needs to held accountable for their antisemitic views and just show entertaining programmes, keep politics out of it.
