BREAKING: Ireland, Spain, the Netherlands and Slovenia just said they'll
boycott the Eurovision Song Contest unless Israel is kicked out.

Now other national broadcasters are deciding whether to join the boycott
and hold the Israeli government to account on the global stage. 

Public pressure can make all the difference. Add your name and share
wildly.

John,

BREAKING: National broadcasters in Slovenia, Ireland, Spain and the
Netherlands all just vowed to boycott the Eurovision 2026 Song Contest if
Israel participates. This is HUGE!

Fearing a major boycott, Eurovision organisers just asked the Israeli
national broadcaster to consider withdrawing from the contest or
participating under a neutral flag. 

While Israel has bombed, starved, and maimed tens of thousands of
Palestinians, its using Eurovision to whitewash the genocide on the global
stage.

But there's lots of Eurovision broadcasters staying quiet, hoping the
campaign to suspend Israel will blow over. That's why we have to act fast
and pile the pressure on now.

[ [link removed] ]Tell the BBC and other Eurovision broadcasters: Suspend Israel from
Eurovision or boycott the contest.

Earlier this summer, dozens of broadcasters met behind closed doors in
London to address the growing backlash over Israel’s participation, and
were set to vote on its future. But the vote was pulled at the last
minute, following pleas from Israel and a plea from the BBC to keep the
talks going.

But its clear that national broadcasters have had enough.

Israel has obliterated schools, hospitals, and the homes of hundreds of
thousands of Palestinians. And has sent the military to seize control
of Gaza City.

There is no place for Israel in the Eurovision song contest.

There’s already support for a suspension among broadcasters. Both
Iceland’s RUV and Slovenia’s RTVSLO network said they would back an Israel
ban. Now we just need one last push on the BBC, and other TV networks to
follow suit.

Suspending Israel would send a powerful signal to the Israeli government
that the world will not be silent in the face of the atrocities in Gaza.
And it could propel other international bodies to take action - like UEFA,
FIFA and the International Olympic Committee.

[ [link removed] ]Tell TV networks - suspend Israel from Eurovision.

We’ve already shown that public pressure is forcing corporations to break
ties with the Israeli government. Earlier this year, shipping giant Maersk
suspended the transport of goods to the illegally occupied Palestinian
territories after this incredible community and allies around the world
piled on the pressure. Now let’s do it again.
