Ha’aretz reports:
The Palestinians are exploring the possibility of participating in the Eurovision Song Contest next year, a Danish diplomat said Thursday.
Two companies for artistic development, the Danish Superflex and the Palestinian Sabreen, have signed an agreement to lobby among Eurovision member states for the idea, and to help the Palestine Broadcasting Corp. with technical preparations, said Rolf Holmboe, a Danish diplomat in the West Bank.
Great idea. They could sing their own version of Push the Button, an ode to suicide bomb belts.
Holmboe said Palestinian participation could help create positive symbols of Palestinian unity and reinforce the idea of peacemaking with Israel.
You mean the very idea of peacemaking that the recently formed palestinian unity government rejected?
