Rte is anti semitic. I support Graham Linehan.

This is a disgraceful and bigoted decision. Sometimes broadcasters need to look in the mirror when being openly racist.

Whatever your political views anti-semitism in the UK has been ignored for far too long. We have to stand up and be counted.

Disgusting, using Father Ted for a political attack on Israel.

It is nothing short of antisemitism to boycott Eurovision solely because Israel is participating -Politicising much loved comedy characters in this is appalling.

Kevin Bakhurst has stood over RTE censorship and news control for too long.

Isreal suffers immensely from bomb attacks from hamas hezbollah and Iran. They have every right to fight for survival. I truly don't understand why they are condemned for that.

I disagree strongly with a decision not to show the Eurovision Song Contest purely because of one nation, Israel, participating.

Utterly shameful, but Ireland has form on this. It closed its doors to Jewish refugees in 30s/40s. Subsequent events / history has clearly taught this country nothing. Does RTE / Bakhurst represent the heart of the Irish people? We are watching...

This is clear antisemitism as RTE's standards are not applied to any other nation.
