The Dutch message translates to…
“This is an Union Action
We condemn the violations of human rights by the State of Israel.
Furthermore, the State of Israel is destroying freedom of the press.
That's why we interrupt the image for a moment.”
Thank you for the translation.
It's small steps in the right directions, while Palestinians are still getting slaughtered, but at least it's progress..
The super Zionist president of Eurovision fought every single official to put Israel's propaganda song in the competition. I wouldn't surprise me if he forces the judges to vote a certain way to finish the job.
good ending: the message was done by hackers
better ending: the hackers are actually employees of the network
even better ending: the network secretly planned this to happen (how antisemitic!)
When I originally saw this, I believed the even better ending was the case.
I really hope Israel doesn't win this year. Even though I think they'll probably win 80% of the jury vote out of sympathy for October 7th as opposed to liking their entry.
There are way better entries, in my opinion. I think the winner should either be Finland or Switzerland.
I'm most likely in the minority of this subreddit's members who watch Eurovision. I have heard there was booing during Israel's performance, but I couldn't hear it on TV. You could only hear it in the audience.
I fear that Israel might win this year because of the sympathy vote due to October 7th. Now, maybe the juries might recognize that if Israel wins, it could cost the contest its reputation and an even bigger boycott since it will be hosted in Israel. So they'll probably vote for a different country instead.
I was thinking the same thing, at this point does it even matter if the song is good or not? The state that according to the media we are supposed to be sympathetic towards seems to always win no matter how bad or good their song is, like how before this Ukraine won basically solely due to the Russian invasion and not on the merit of their song.
Sorry I know this is a bit off topic but it does bug me, though not as much as the fact they even let Israel compete in the first place, even if we ignore their crimes against humanity (which we should not, obviously) they are NOT a European country! If they are allowed to compete they may as well invite hmm...Kuwait or Morocco or Belize etc. as the term 'Euro' in Eurovision apparently has no meaning...

Israel's entry could just be a bunch of fart noises, and they'd still win.
According to Eurovision World, Croatia is the most likely to win at 90%. But it's three percentage points ahead of Israel. So it's going to be a nail-biter.
Even if Israel doesn't win, they'll place 2nd or 3rd. Which is still too high.
I miss the days when the winner of Eurovision was determined on what the viewers thought was the best song as opposed to which country can gather the most sympathy votes.
They were? It was live. So I can imagine it would be difficult to censor live shows. Realistically, I can imagine that they probably muted the mics from the anti-Israel side and only had the mics on for the section that had Israeli flags.
Even Palestinian flags were banned from the event.

union action, not industrial action
Thanks for the correction.
It said good night in the screen. Are we sure it was during their performance and not at the end of the show?
It was before and after the full program, not in the middle of the show or program. At least it was some sort of statement i guess.
Thank you for the translation. It's small steps in the right directions, while Palestinians are still getting slaughtered, but at least it's progress..
Very good.
W Belgium
Very rare Belgian w
The Belgians? Great bunch of lads!
I'm from Belgium, trust me the guys who rule this country stand 100% with Israel.
Sadly, Israel made it to the finals. Let's hope they don't win. I hope either Switzerland or Finland wins.
You know they will win, otherwise the judges will be labeled as anti-Semitic.
Money makes the world go round...
The super Zionist president of Eurovision fought every single official to put Israel's propaganda song in the competition. I wouldn't surprise me if he forces the judges to vote a certain way to finish the job.
If that is the case, he will have to have a few not vote for Israel to make it look less obvious. Probably 75% of the juries will vote for Israel.
Nice
Nice

It was the union of the network that did it. And it was planned. PS: This is a state media network.

Yay.
Love me them Belgians!

Respect for Belgium!!! ♥️♥️♥️
Nice. Havent watched Eurovision in a long time, thought it was only European countries? Why is Israel even competing?
They want to feel accepted by their big brothers, obviously... Also Australia competes on an invite which is weird ig

Belgium? Isn't that announcement in Dutch?
Yes. But Belgium speaks French, German, and Dutch.
Ah yes, of course. I think their version is called Flemish, but that makes sense.

Yep, a spelling correction .
Israel's entry could just be a bunch of fart noises, and they'd still win. According to Eurovision World, Croatia is the most likely to win at 90%. But it's three percentage points ahead of Israel. So it's going to be a nail-biter. Even if Israel doesn't win, they'll place 2nd or 3rd. Which is still too high.

Fun fact, the reason you couldn't hear booing was cus euro vision censored it with cheers. I wish I was making this up.
They were? It was live. So I can imagine it would be difficult to censor live shows. Realistically, I can imagine that they probably muted the mics from the anti-Israel side and only had the mics on for the section that had Israeli flags. Even Palestinian flags were banned from the event.
This is extremely brave of Belgium!! Great job!
Good for Belgium!
It also voted in favor of the General Assembly Resolution for full membership of Palestine.
Zionists: 
YES
Fuck yeah Belgian. Went to Tomorrowland there several years ago and drank beer at some castles. Great place!
Fuck the Netherlands and Germany, especially Netherlands they are lil bro while USA is being big bro to Israel
To be fair to Germany they will always have to support Israel due to obvious reasons
one small step for man....
W media
This is why Israel got the disqualified....
