Yeah we kept participating in the Olympics too- we don’t bow to terrorism.
(In case you missed it the entire Israeli delegation was murdered at the 1972 Munich Olympics)
The goal of Nazis is to remove us from society.
Israel is not our ghetto it is our homeland.
Yuval is not a “pro-Israel advocate” she is a survivor of terror attack who would like her attackers to be held accountable.
“Ukraine didn’t have to send out a pro-Zelenskyy advocate. They could have sent some neutral or sympathetic to Russia. Or even *Gasp* a Russian Ukrainian” - how you sound
“Another Eden Golan” the only similarity between Eden and Yuval is that they’re both Jewish women.
There have been previous Arab Israeli (that’s what they’re called not Palestinian-Israelis) contestants it just happens that the judges liked her performance during the selection process the best- because the contestant is decided by a panel of judges NOT THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT.
How the hell was Eden the victimizer. She was a 19 year old girl who only left her room for the contest.
Israeli security forces were worried that there might be an attempt on her life because there have been previous attempts on Israeli participants in international competitions and because there was a giant terror attacker that killed the most Jews in a single day since the Holocaust seven months earlier. Including a massive attack on a music festival.
She is not scared of queer or autistic people (as an autistic person the way your framing Greta Thunberg here feels pretty infantilizing. Autistic adults are adults who are fully responsible for their actions and capable of hurting people) she is scared of the people dressed like terrorists screaming at her and chanting for the destruction of her country and violence against its citizens.
