RTE is a national broadcaster and must be neutral. I am appalled by this antisemitic posturing. Not in my name.

Not in my name. I am sick to death how the Irish are known as Jew-haters, and let's face it, many are. But we are NOT all anti-semitic.

The cancellation of a non-politcal event created to promote unity is blatantly anti-Semitic. To replace it with the work of someone who was shamefully cancelled for holding legitimate views adds insult to injury.

RTE has a "down with ths kids" immature and very short sighted view of a problem that has real nuance. Asserting a black and white morality in its decision making demonstrates both arrogance and ignorance. That is not even to mention the hypocritic virtue signalling.

Rte has become a biased, propaganda tool for leftist interests and has adopted a clearly antisemitic tone in the last number of years. As a licence fee payer i demand, biased Rte employees be removed from their positions immediately and RTE return to a unbiased, impartial broadcaster as required of a state broadcasting company.

So inappropriate to decide a whole population shouldn't be allowed to watch a song show because one of the singers is born in the wrong place

IHRA definition of antisemitism is ridiculous but so is this virtue signalling by RTE.

Another example of the untalented benefiting off the back of the creators and talented true artists.

Thank you Graham Linehan for bringing this scandal to my attention. Shame on RTE! Anti Semitism will not be tolerated by the decent majority.

This is the Ireland whose Taoiseach visited and offered condolences to the German ambassador in Dublin on the death of Adolf Hitler in 1945. Morally and ethically bankrupt. Time for the nation to grow up and behave itself.
