  • so that's what they do after killing kids..

  • Im from israel , and i hate the fight between the two. I JUST HATE IT.

    So maybe stop talking about it even here , on youtube.

    Enjoy the music , which says that theres another way .

    STOP HATE EACH OTHER

    We are all humans.

    Peace .

  • Peace NOW is the way! Beautiful performance. Both persons are so beautiful and strong and wise. Well done! We are ALL brothers and sisters.

  • I love this song

  • i like the language..sounds great..even if I don't understand a word!

  • Comment removed

  • @NoorOday omg your'e so stupid, noa speaks arabic, that's her language, and mira hebrew, and the beauty of the song is that they both understand eachother, not in there own language. so don't come up with those stupid comments, and just listen to the song!

  • @MegaPepernoot

    Actually Noa is Hebrew and Mira is Arabic!!!

  • @MegaPepernoot Incorrect. Mira Awad is an Arab Israel and her language is thus Arabic. Noa, however, is an Israeli Jew and speaks Hebrew.

  • @NoorOday

    Shut up, dear. 

  • funny to see how people start fighting about who is wrong listen to the song! IT IS NOT THE MESSAGE THEY WANT TO BRING!!!!!!!

  • i think that the Armenians that killed by the Turks and the Christian from Sudan suffer too. listen there is 6.5 millions Jews and Israelis now in the land of Israel and there is 1.2 millions Arabs. do the math alone... i know that Israel want peace and quit, and don't want to fight for her life all the time.... i can tell you that the biggest enemy of Israel is the extremist from the left wing and the right wing

  • @roybarichli thats all i am talking about, 1.2 mln palestinians (i dont like the "term" arabs if they speak arabic does not mean they r arabs, i speak russian but i am not the one) and 6.5 mln jewish and increased settlements where they were not supposed to! i am not saying armenians/others did not suffer, violence always make civilians suffer, right now we are talking about Israeli-palestinian conflict. i am a impartial person, but never gonna change my mind on what is not right! thats it 

  • @almbdrn ok so live your life without knowing the truth.... i believe 90 percent of what Israel doing is right . you can think whatever and i respect that. i don't want to change your ideas you can go to Israel and see at all and after that come and tell me what you see

  • @roybarichli what truth? u r the one who lives in illusion, i dont have to go there to know whats going on, this is not 15th century, i can read i can watch, u r naive, good luck anyway

  • OK really...this isn't a debate for political or racial discussions....its bout the performance and the video...fuck!..with that said the performance was ok..lol

  • actually if anyone has ever received geography lessons its more than clear that Israel is in the Near East, ASIA

  • Too all who say Israel is not in europe and wtf they are doing in eurovision...you can found in youtube video from 1973 when israel was in eurovision they was and they will be ...1998 israel won in eurovision

  • @stemale so then what the hell does that prove? that doesn't mean that it's in Europe.

  • @FadoDeo4444

    so do gerorgia azbakisten azbebrijan turkey russia and so on...also morrco was once in eurov..and many no european countries...it's not about the geography it's about the culture the israeli culture is close to european ones....that's why it has contact with europe sport and so on and moreover asia is mostly muslims who don't want israel so europe adopt us!

    Morocco quited from eurov cuz their culture is diffrerent from us!

    long live europe and israel!

  • @rotemsh1 Please.... I do hope you know that Canada and Argentina both share a culture more similar to Europe than Israel does... so if it's about culture and not geography; then even Australia should be allowed to participate; and the Asian Muslims don't like Canada; so then Europe should adopt it? Oh... and there is a VERY good reason why the Muslims don't like you.

    And for the record; Russia is in part of Europe.

  • @FadoDeo4444

    most of the jews in israel are european or russians only few are not secondlly how can you compare the distance between israel to europe and aragantina and austalia to euope..they r way far than israel..

    cyprus is not geography in europe but it's even in the EU..and it's closer to my city than the southern city in israel only 4 hours if there were a road...russia has only a small part in europe most of it asia...look at the map...i don't get why you care so much it's just music!

  • @rotemsh1 Most Australians are European decent, and oh... didn't you say: "it's not about the geography it's about the culture"....? haha.. and now you say: "how can you compare the distance between israel to europe and aragantina and austalia to euope..they r way far than israel.." and... "cyprus is not geography in europe"...

    And concerning Russia.. you should know that I live in Russia; in Kazan.. look at a map. most Russians live IN Europe, not Asian part. Is it Geography or Culture? DECIDE!

  • @FadoDeo4444 sorry maybe i wasn't clear enough...i meant of course it's about cultures but you don't expect from austlians to come to europe or if austrlia will win most of the people who come to see eurovision will not come coz it's too far..there's no since to add these countries to eurov..i hope you got me..

    again look at gerogia Azerbaijan turkey and cyprus they r not european..but still have contact with europe!

    and again what is your problem it's just music and fun not more than this.

  • @FadoDeo4444

    by the way did you know that australians watch eurovision....i read it now :)

    any way i really don't want to argue with you....eurovision is fun and it's art i love to see the different languages so sad now many countries use english...for their songs...have a good day!!!

  • @stemale israel won 3 times

  • @2010whyman

    we have the same opinion ! israel is doing much more illegal things than the palestinians ! every one knows that ! but i wish they can build 1 state 4 every one , or 2 state 4 every one ! just like Switzerland ! not jewish not islamic land ! but a state 4 every one jews & arabs ! its the only way 2 stop the Apartheid now !

  • Okay, can someone tell me how Israel is now in Europe Get this terrosrist "state" out of Eurovision.

  • BORING boring and boring

  • israil STOP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • A DAY will come and all fear will disappear !!

  • Comment removed

  • פדיחה למדינת ישראל!!

  • free palestine .

  • I loved this song from Israel last year! ...Trinidad y Tobago

  • @NazarethR So what? i dont have a problem that Arabs will keep living in israel, and they can be in israeli parliament.. but its a jewish country. we support them.. but they dont support us. how you can support someone that doesn't supports you?

  • @sondenomix

    its like telling the blacks american : " well i dont have any problem with blacks ! they can keep living in usa , they dont have 2 go 2 africa they can be in the parlament , but its a white state with some rights 4 the black minority "

  • 20% of israel population r Arabs & 13.5 % U.S. population r blacks! so r u asking the arabs (muslims&christians) in israel 2 recognize israel as a jewish state? is that making israel democratic? NO cuz israeli arabs can never be jews ! so they would never have the same rights like the jews in israel! would u ask the black ppl in USA 2 recognize USA as white state of america? but i think usa is a democratic land israel is not democratic its only democratic 4 jews but not 4 all citizens like usa

  • @NazarethR I don't wanna answer, but i will tell you the best sentence that i have heard about this: "In the day that the Arabs will put their weapon down, will be no war. in the day that Israel will put her weapon down, will be no Israel." REMEMBER THIS SENTENCE! 

  • @sondenomix

    LOL, u r the one who have 200 neuclear weapon not the arabs ! u r the one who killing palestinains , not the palestinians r killing jews, u r the one who is using illegal wepaons , building illegal settlement , making the life of palestinains like the life of dogs in jail ! the arabs should not use weapons and accept ur Racism?

    no wonder that Nelson Mandela , Ghandis grandchild support also the palestinians ! do they have weapons ? dont say u dont want 2 answer , cuz u cant answer

  • @NazarethR Look, you want to know what is happening here? come to israel, 1 month in Gaza Strip, and one month in Ashdod.

  • @sondenomix

    LOL ! u r talking 2 peace activist ! u r the one who need 2 know wt is happening in palestien & wt israel is doing ! u should compare wt the illegal things that the palestnians r doing & wt the illegal things that ur country is doing ! u should ask some jewish peace activist about ur country , u should ask ur human rights org. like Betselem about wt is happening in westbank & gaza ! ask Amira hass , ask Felicia langer, ask Gedion levy ... i know about ur racist country more than u !

  • @NazarethR Haha, you can say anything, who lives here, you, or me?

    first, come to Israel, after that you will have the permission to say whatever you want.

    by the way, why is your nickname Nazareth? Nazareth is my city, i live there.

  • @sondenomix

    look u r talking 2 a peace activist ! i was in israel i was in palestine , i have jewish friends & palestinain friends who have the same opinion like me ! y ? do the israeli jews in betslem or peace now hate israel ? nazareth is an ARABIC city in north israel/palestine! but it a name of band thats y its my nickname ! u should stop 2 hate non-jews , maybe then u will believe in peace ! but any way u should educate ur self ,cuz u cant answer my points !

  • this song just proves how israel wants peace.

  • @MrVenatic r u sure about that?

  • Great song!!!!!

  • i voted this :D

  • yes there is another way ! 1 state 4 every body , just like usa ! not jewish land not an islamic land ! a land 4 every body ! usa is not a White States of America, its United States of America so would u ask the black minority in usa 2 accept a white state ? would u ask the arabs 2 accept a jewish state ?

  • @sondenomix

    LOL , thats wt happend in 1948 ,dont you think so ? -> u came 2 palestine & told the palestinains :" i want 2 share you your land " and then u have transferd them 2 make a jewish majority ! and now you dont want 2 live with them any more ? try 2 be an human being ! look at Swissland ! there r 3 Nations who live like 1 nation ! blacks & whites live in South africa & in usa now in peace ! israel is now an Apartheid state ! its racist ! just like South Africa at that time !

  • @NazarethR If jewish people all of them will leave Israel and will find another land all arabs from Israel just will follow them....for disturb them also in another land. Arabs in Israel got used to live in the first world developed country that jewish people built, so to stay in palestine with out jewish people ...arabs gonna die....they dont know to do anything alone

  • LOL ! who r u 2 say such a stupid thing like that ? israeli arabs will never leave their houses, israel arabs could also go 2 germany or usa & live their & get a visa , but they r not doing it ! y ? cuz they love their home land !who r u 2 tell me they gonna die ? the arabs in Dubai lived better than the jews in israel! lebanon is more democratic than israel ! israel is an apartheid state ! israelis transferd palestinians 2 build their land ! i never heard such stupid thing like wt u said!

  • @1000Gary1000

    Live free , or die trying ! so the palestinians r fighting 4 their freedom & for their human rights ! and u r making such stupid argument 2 kill them ? 2 die with freedom is better than 2 die with the war crimes of israel !

  • @NazarethR I really like your idea...I am so sick of people being hurt because everyone refuses to compromise. It's just not necessary at all. Here in the US, we've got far too many people that believe the US should be a White States of America. It absolutely disgusts me. Rock on! Love from the USA.

  • @MelpomeneRose

    thank u for supporting this idea but its not my idea , its the idea of only 10% of the israelis & palestinains ! so its very sad that ppl cant understand that ! i wish israel & palestine some day will create 1 state 4 every human , jews & arabs ! just like Swissland there are 3 nation who lived in 1 country & who r proud of their country ! i wish jews & Palestinians learn from Swissland !

    :)

  • @NazarethR

    yeah but israel is jewish state...there most be another state....for those who don't want to be part of israel!

  • @rotemsh1

    look we are in 2011 , theres no place 4 a jewish state or christian state or islamic state , ok ?

    a democratic land should be a land 4 every citizens , usa is not a white country but its a country 4 every body white or black , germany its not a christian land but a land of all german ppl muslim christian and jews ! israel is not a land of all israelis u call it the land of jews ! that means u r ignoring the israeli arabs & palestinains !

  • @NazarethR

    are you kiding me?!?

    germany is 100% christian state....there is an offical church in germany all the christians holidays are in law...sunday is their free day like it should be...i love germany i'm my self german jew but it's christian country who respect jews and muslims as well israel jewish country who respects the others...you know there is freedom of religion here i'm jewish who is not believer i have a friend who goes every sunday to church so what?!

  • LOL ! ok my friend how old r u? 5 ? who told u germany is 100% christian state , 90% of germany r atheists! no one german call his country : the christian stqate! holidays have nothing 2 do with relegion it has do with Tradetion!ok y dont u educate ur self as first ? learn the defintion of Democracy! germany is not calling their self the land of christian ppl or a christian land !but its calling her self the land of all german ppl ! israel is not the land of all israelis , only jews = Apartheid

  • look 13% of usa r blacks ! do u think the blacks will accept if USA said : " its the land of white ppl but we respect also the blacks ? " -> its bullshit cuz ur ignoring the same right 4 blacks ! so israel say " its the land of jews but we respect the israeli arabs " HELLO u r ignroing the israeli arabs? dont u see how stupid is that ? if usa call her self the land of christians, the jews will leave as first ! so when israel say its the land of all citizens then its will be democratic !

  • @NazarethR

    there are 27 arabs countries all of them are muslim and have nothing to do with democrtic staff there isn't freedom of religion or from religion....try to be a jew in of these countries...most of the european countries are christian just look on their flags...but it's ok...coz religion should be good thing we as humans make it to be bad...it should unite us we all have the same good but extimist in every religion destroy us as a socitey!

  • those 22 arabic countries r not saying : we r democratic ! israel do ! so if u think israel is democratic why r u afraid 2 compare israel with a real democratic state like Swiss,or germany or usa ? germany is the land of all german not the land of all Aryans but the land of jewish germany , atheist german,muslim german christian german ... usa is the land of all american, israel is not calling her self the land of all israelis , but the land of all jews ! so u r ignoring the israeli arabs

  • @NazarethR

    even look at the GREAT STATE OF AMERICA..who is know as USA..it's christian country ...sunday it's her free day...it's have a mian church and all of the christian holidays are in law...moreover when you come to currot you have to swear on the new byble...israel is jewish and democrtic country it's goes togther....believe me i'm not religious..i'm even anti ultra urtoudox jews...but i'm for jewish state as i'm for christian states and muslims...that's not mean others can't live there

  • usa is not calling her self a christian country , how do u call it a christian country ! how old r u ? 5 ?

    usa say : we are the country of all americans , atheist , jews , christian,muslims,hindu,.... usa never said its a christian country ! no one care about the main church , the church has nothing 2 do with the law & the governemt ! no u dont have w swear on the bible , theres also jewish & muslims in the kongress they dont swear on the bible !

  • 20% of israel population r Arabs & 13.5 % U.S. population r blacks! so r u asking the arabs (muslims&christians) in israel 2 recognize israel as a jewish state? is that making israel democratic? NO cuz israeli arabs can never be jews ! so they would never have the same rights like the jews in israel! would u ask the black ppl in USA 2 recognize USA as white state of america? but i think usa is a democratic land israel is not democratic its only democratic 4 jews but not 4 all citizens like usa

  • @NazarethR the recognizing of Israel as a Jewish state not make the Arabs less citizens. it's for the protocol and that's it . read and explore before expressing your opinion.

  • answer : 6,000,000 jews die!! There is no difference between Jew and gentile, or between black and white or ethnic origin in Israel. Arabs in Israel are given priority when they are received higher learning institutions. Arabs are large areas to self development. 70 countries have a Christian if not more. There are 25 Muslim countries if not more. So what's the problem of the world would be a Jewish state in the world and even more from the same place we are talking about 

  • u cant use the 6mio jews who were killed as a excuse 4 killing palestinians! u cant tell an american :"hey u have 50 states , give me 1 state 4 me !" the problem not with the jewish state , the problem is with the fckin policy of the israeli state! look u cant call it jewish! usa is not christian or white state ! its the state of all americans ! israel is not the state of all israelis so its not democratic! israeli arabs r suffering under israel dont tell me they love u & they r happy !

  • @NazarethR who killing Palestinians??!!! Israel ? look on the t.v and see what's going on in the Arab world ... the Arabs and the Muslims killing non stop Themselves!!! Hypocrites like you!! Israel defends itself and possibly kill terrorists once in a while and in the same time in Arab countries are murdered every day hundreds of Arabs and Muslims by their fellow Arab. and the world dealing with Israel just for sucking the Arabs

  • We are talking about children of Israel came from thousands of years and this is the right to be there! Israel is not like all countries, there is a deep and important story that everyone should know him before he expresses an opinion about a piece of this earth. This is holy land to the Jewish people who murdered and destroyed by Akihito this place.

  • look this not the holy land of jews its a holy land 4 every one! i dont care about ur relegion or their relegion! i do care about humanity! u cant kill them& transfer them cuz u think u were there 2000 years ago! any way u r not answering my points! dont ask me 2 support israel becuz of this stories! i dont care if it jewish land or islamic land! supposed its jewish u have no right 2 kill&transfer palestinians!germany is als a german land , do u think the german has the right 2 kill non-german?

  • @NazarethR You can be anti-Semitic, you can be enemies of Israel, also might not care about what happens there, but one thing I know it's the place of the Jewish people in front of another.

  • i dont care wt do u think! but i do care wt r u doing ,how r u treating the palestinians! im not against israel ! im against the policy of israel ! every one who is calling israel 2 stop acting crazy against innocent palestinians is a anti-smitic or israeli hater? i do care when u dont respect international laws & human rights & human rights organisations like Betselem or amnesty international, when u kill peace activists & palestinian children & when u transfer them & destroy their houses

  • look, dont tell me this propaganda shit! israeli arabs r not equal with jews ! i dont care if they got good high learning institution or not! u know & i know 60% israeli arabs r below the poverty line,they r getting discriminated by israel ! at the work at the Univ. at the Airport, every where! i know that israel is calling also 4 transfering the israeli arabs ! like Lieberman who want a clean jewish state, just like hitler who wanted a clean Aryan state! watch this video

    1 Targeted Citizen ENG

  • @NazarethR You know what? Tell the world why there is discrimination against some of the Arabs in Israel. tell them that most of the Arab community did not contribute to the State of Israel, tell them they do not pay taxes and put on the Israeli law. Tell them that the highest rate of violence and murders many times from different populations in Israel come from the arabs! Tell the world that the percentage of users social security services highest in Israel are Arabs!!

  • You bring me this clown Lieberman as an example of what Israeli citizens want to do to the Arabs !?!? you Know what you are stupid addition to what I think about you! Why have the Jews Abmshinat dislike Arabs in Israel? Ask yourself maybe that found dozens of cells of terror among Arab populations? Maybe because they do not put on the law? Perhaps because the Israelis can not go around where you are without feeling fear, And at the same time you can walk around freely in the Jewish cities

  • @roybarichli why the hell palestinians would contribute to the Israeli state? they never wanted them there, they were forced to have them, it is like letting someone into your house to stay in one room, and then that person says get out this is my house now, do u get it? and the discrimination in their constitution it says the life of the jew is the most valuable, how about others? they r not human? there your discrimination!

  • @almbdrn WHAT WHAT WHAT????!!! NO NO NO GO TO THE HISTORY BOOKS AND SEE WHO WAS IN THE LAND OF ISRAEL BEFORE ... THE ISRAELITE AND THE JEWS WERE HERE BEFORE THE ARABS BEFORE THE MUSLIMS AND BEFORE ANYONE ELSE AND THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN CLAIM THIS LITTLE PIECE OF LAND THEY ARE THE GREEKS AND THE ROMANS AND EVEN THAT IN A LIMITED LIABILITY . SO STOP SAYING YOUR LIES TO THE WORLD GO READ SOME BOOKS ... VIVA ISRAELE

  • @roybarichli yeah we know the history 2000 years ago, chinese say 5000 years ago they lived in the "entire" world, so lets start redividing all the territories! thats is a great idea you r very "clever "

  • @almbdrn i never heard something like this . You're not a serious conversation. I bring you a chance to understand your attitude that you're wrong mistake and you answer me this answer??!! You do not have to go 2000 years, look at 600 years ago and understand what I wrote to you. Jews and Israelis were in Israel before the Arabs

  • @roybarichli well, may be thats the problem that u never heard that before, lets return America back to the american indians, thats not their land, southern parts back to Mexico, i am not against jew having their country, it is the nation suffered the most in the world, but not this way, bring back to original division in 1948, can u see same picture now? certainly not, if we start dividing territories based on the history common noone has a land

  • @NazarethR stupid!!!

  • @EitanFri

    well is that ur answer ? most of the ppl dont think im stupid u can see how m. ppl like my comments

    im gonna block u , so i dont see ur stupid comments anymore

  • @NazarethR

    I love you Izrael!

  • vote romania on eurovizion song contest 2010

  • Israel should have won but obviously europe doesn't have feelings..

  • MJNUVAN Are such lol!!!

  • listen the song of manga Turkey.... it's one of the best songs in EUROVISION SONG CONTEST 2010.... TURKEY MANGA TURKEY MANGA.... please listen it pleaaassssseeeeee.... listen the music of TURKEY of EUROVISION SONG CONTEST 2010!!!!!

  • this is beautiful and it brought hope back to me im from palestine i loved this song,it should have won.

    - greetings from sweden :)

  • I have little concern bout politics, but I thought Israel is situated in Middle East, but why they attend in Eurovision contest? Actually Im confused.

  • Every country whos in the EBU (European Broadcasting Union) is allow to attend at the Eurovision Song Contest. That is the reason why Israel or Azerbaijan, ... for example attend.

  • lol

  • omg this is awfull...

  • Eurovision doesn't mean they have to be in Europe. The main qualifier is simply the EBU membership. Say, one day a national TV station in Morocco decides to join the EBU, then it can participate in Eurovision.

  • im in love! (whit both of em')

  • In The Bible is written:"Between sons of Israel and sons of Ishmael peace will never become"But NOTHING WAS SAID ABOUT DAUGHTERS.I hopefully beilive that women of Israel and Palestine some day will agree in peace and put end to 2000's year war.

  • It will never happen. We can all hope. There will always be fights, its just reality.

  • That would be nice!!! Maybe the Muslim and Jewish wives should refuse sex and daughters should refuse to get married. Why give pleasure and start families if the men refuse to make a comfortable home for them?

    They should all leave the area. Take a vacation to another country (US, maybe) while the men fight it out or realize they love/miss their women more than fighting.

    Long live the Israeli and Palestinian women!

  • NO I WANT TO GET MARRIED :(

  • hope u ll find anotherway:) peace between israel and palestine

  • good voice and good intention! These tow girls maked more pace betwen Israel and Palestine than any politician from this world

  • They are in it because the IBA are paid up members of the European Broadcasting Union - the group of TV Companies that makes up the contest.

    Its nothing to do with the others boycotting, its because the European Broadcasting Area covers Israel and therefore they are allowed, the same as Lebanon, Morocco, Libya, Tunisia and Egypt COULD, but show no desire to.

    They *are* singing in Arabic - as did Morocco in 1980!! - And????

  • they are singing arabic also...wtf

  • @lebgrl2nv

    yes they sing hebrew and arabic because arabic is second official language of State of Israel.And Arabs are the great minority in that country

  • So what exactly is Eurovision? And if it's called EURO vision, why are the Israelis in it?

  • you're tottaly right... it happened because all the asians boycotting Israel (Jordan, Sausy Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Yemen etc.) and we wanted to represent ourselves in some competitions- so Europe got us... basiclly we shouldn't be with the Europeans...

  • yeah i dont understand! isreal is not in europe!

  • @csume1

    To be an European is NOT to have your body geogragically placed in Europe but to be mentally prepared to think lik an European.Israeli people have european mentality

  • @csume1

    every country, can sing in Esc, on one condition; they have to be lokated on the continent of Europe!

  • No. They need to be in the European Broadcasting Unions radar, which Israel just happens to be in.

  • @cmurphy2826

    Look my previous comment to csume1 and you'll understand

  • fochh you

  • screw you win 59 wars and then say that... until then shut the fuck up:)

  • There is another way . Stop building settlements and go after peace not just in words but in actions too

  • I don't care what everybody else says, I just love this song. It's beautiful and I adore the girls' voices.

  • we are (israel) between asia and europe so we are in contests in europe and in asia

  • i'm from israel!!! shame on us...

  • esos malos que hacen con la unidad europea....?

  • Can we just say the boarders of Europe are wrongly drawn..

    Europe begins at Iceland and stretches across to the Ural mountains in Russia, then travel down to where the mountains end and go to the black sea then hook downwards past Georgia (inside the boarder) down past Azerbaijan then Armenia then what country is next to Armenia? Israel so cut through the middle of Israel and reach the mediterainian.. So Isreal if the boarders where proper is 50% Europeain. but it considers itself 100%

  • the borders are correct already...what you said is wrong...turkey and azerbaijan i can understand but israel? o.O its just too far away...

  • Georgia is syuck right beside Russia so why should It not be 100% In Europe its on the left of the Ural mountains.

    So Is Israel and Aremnia. and they are just below Turkey.

    Israel has more ties to Europe than Turkey. So does Armenia. Global positing does not matter, look how far away Iceland is it appears in American maps. So why is it automatically said to be in europe? because of ties. and ties keep Israel and the eastern Europeian boardering states in Europe so whats so hard to learn?

  • thats a really good point...

  • Israel,Russia and Turkey are historically in Europe.You can see all these countries in your history book.Russia and Turkey have lands in Europe.

  • Nope i didnt like it...

  • Well done Israel. This is great song expressing your desire for peace, but the denial that is being thrown back in your face. There must be another way.

  • if only the Middle East were like that, Israel is not the problem, though, the Jews did lose their home to the Romans and eventually Arabs and the UN technically did steal the land for no reason to give to Israel, but the land means so much to both peoples that i don't think either should be removed, hopefully people can learn to understand each other.

    this is a beautiful piece, though, and i love how they so smoothly and naturally flow between Hebrew, Arabic, and English.

  • 100% original ! i love israel

  • I love this song! Hello form the UK.

  • to all the "israel is not in europe". Israel is concidered european. Only democracy in whole insane region.

  • If it's considered European, why isn't it in Europe?

  • Israel is not in Europe but they take part in European competitions such as Euro, Eurobasket and Eurovision. In Eurovision, broadcasters from Mediterranean countries like Israel, Lebanon, Egypt or Morocco have the right to [participate.

  • Awesome. I'd love to see Egypt participate and get a high ranking.

  • it would be cool. but then again it would become more "international" with all these new countries (azerbaijan, georgia, armenia and..egypt). anyway.

  • To Alex4u: other countries not europeans are cyprus and armenia. russia, georgia, turkey and Azerbaijan are not fully european. Morocco also competed. Not very europeian either is it?

    More questions?

  • Hi directorman, just to increase your knowleged about Eurovision, all the contries that are part of the European Brodcasting Union can participate in the Eurovision song's contest . Lebanon for example wanted to participated in 2005 they even had a good song an a great singer but due to their laws barring the broadcast of Israeli content they finally withdrew check this information here even in wikipedia, was a same Lebanon is such a great country and have wonderful singers like Maya Nasri, bye

  • Thanks for that.

    Would be interesting if a Middle Eastern (incl. Israel) contest was to take place. I'd definately love to compare all those cultures-for the first time-side by side.

  • Is good your idea, the countries of the Middle East have very good artists that the rest of the world, don´t know, It would be also very interesting to see a song's contest of eastern asian countries, and latin american countries... But it would be a pity same to take Israel with all their good singers out of Eurovision I dont know you but I really like them ;)

  • The doors always will be open

    for such an amazing and

    important song like this!

    It's a great enrichment that Israel takes part in Eurovision!

    Don't know why people come with arguments like Israel isn't in EU..etc..

    I just want to say that also Turkey is just

    3% Europe, Russia is half European and half Asia??

    but it doesn't matter who is european and who not..

    it's just about great music....

    but sometimes it's difficult to understand..

  • Isreal is not in Europe

  • song sucks

  • [PEACE N LOVE ]

  • Isreal is not in Europe it is in Asia so it shouldn't be in this contest

  • well if its not in eurovision why would it be in eurovision? if its in eurovision its in europe...

  • as greek i wish one day and i hope soon peace rising in this region. I loved this song from the first moment that i listened

    PEACE FOR EVER!!!!!!!!!

  • SHIT!

    its PALESTINE and NOT israel! :s

  • Israel participates in Eurovision ??? I think next  year we'll see Tanzania here

  • omg i love this song with all my heart, cant understand most of it, but i dont care, =] and i think it sends a good message of peace and love.. plus come on people? this is a song contest.. with singing.. not screaming your political views? from UK :)

  • i dont know why, but the arabic language just makes me want to throw up

  • hehehehe  lol

    nice one mate ,

    can u speak Arabic ??

  • LOL. Hebrew makes me want to cut my ears. I hate it. I guess because I'm not used to hearing it. It sounds awful.

  • why? :S

  • because it sounds like the speaker it self is about to throw up...

  • funnily enough it is very similiar to your language. infact its related...

  • wounderful song xx

    keep it up israil

  • actually, the point on Israel joining Eurovision is probably because they dont have 'm'any friends in neighbourhood

  • Cuba and Libya should join too

  • don't forget the US, Canada, and Mexico :D

  • this song is unique, so different, so powerful.

  • i love israel! i love the song !!! is soooooooooooooooo original

  • This is more message than eurovision song

    But next year we need to send a young talent like Shiri Maimon and Boaz Mauda if we want to win..
