Why has Ireland which purports to be a Christian country never called out the Islamic persecution of their brethren in North Africa ?

We need the courage to stand against the hypocrisy of Anti-Semitism dressed up as human rights, as Graham says. It caves in to Islamism.

I do not agree with the programme being used in this manner or our national broadcaster being politically active.

Only a low-life would consider support for this anti-Semitic RTE boycott.

RTE is being offensive and scurrilous in underhandedly merging two different but socially overlapping causes in such a craven way.
Saying everything without saying anything.
Echoing the worst of our shared national shame. Disappointing and a reason that a lifetime of RTE (TV and radio) is no longer a necessary or regular part of my life.
We used to have a sense of humour, perspective about our own inadequacies as a country. This new-found national arrogance and peacocking will be the downfall of all that was subliminally Irish about our country.

RTE have so much money, they can give up 3 nights of prime time advertising revenue. It's just a song contest.

Some people forgot the true meaning of the Eurovision Song Contest and found this a convenient venue to expose their Antisemitism.

I think RTÉ's decision to boycott this year's Eurovision Song Contest also calls into question whether our national broadcaster can be relied upon to report on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in a balanced and impartial manner.

When will the HATE stop. Don't you hate that China killed 1.2 million people, Ukraine has lost over 500,000 men women and children, Sudan killed 350,000 people and displaced 11 million only condemn a country for defending itself and one of 4000 religions.
