  Speaker 1: I'm going to talk to our good old pal John Litke.
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: He's with us. Good morning, Good morning, Jeane. We're going
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: to talk about the Eurovision contest. It gets rolling along
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: in a couple of days for the I know what
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: you want to talk about it, but I just have
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: to add this again, for the life of me, I
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: don't know why our Prime minister wants to be a
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: part of this contest. It's a Eurovision contest unless he
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: knows of an emerging new abba in Saskatchewan. So I
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: just don't understand. Well, okay, now there's been problems with
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Israel's involvement in this contest, but it's gone like it's
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: just crazy, off the Richter scale. Crazy. You're calling this
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: year's Eurovision a Soviet style culture the eraser, Now, what
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: exactly did you see that made you realize that this
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: isn't a song contest anymore.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's no kidding, And once once you see it,
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: it's so clear. But first, I mean, I'll admit I
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: don't care about Eurovision. I don't care about the pyrotechnics,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: I don't care about the questionable fashion choices, I don't
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: care about the music. This is not my cup of
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: tea quite frankly. But then the Hamasniks and the Greb
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: Brigade showed up and they turned the pop contest into
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: a geopolitical star chamber. And here we are, I mean,
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: we've got European governments and our own and legacy media
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: outlets acting like their Soviet central planners. Here they're trying
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: to delete Holocaust surviving artists from the airwaves. You realize
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: that it's not about the catchy hooks. They're just trying
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: to legislate the Jewish state out of existence through bureaucratic
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: paper cuts. So, you know, to quote Greta, how dare
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: they write about this?
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: A woman by the name of Yurvel Raphael she survived
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: the Nova massacre and this is gross, but this is
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: how she survived by hiding under dead bodies. But now
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: the European governments are literally trying to black out her broadcasts.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Like what are they afraid? I mean, she survived, She's
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: not an incredible story.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the thing, This is the gut wrenchingness
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: of it. We're talking about a woman who survived the
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Nova massacre. We're talking about the broad concept of the
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: noma of the massacre. Itself. This song, it's not a
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: political manifesto, it's a scream of survival. But to governments
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: in Ireland and Spain and Slovenia, to the European Broadcasting Union,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: that voice is more inconvenient than al Gore's book that
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: he wrote. They're hitting the broadcast blackout because a Jewish
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: victim who refuses to play the role of the oppressor
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: just completely nukes their entire narrative of things. So they're
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: afraid of her voice because her voice is the truth,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: and her truth is the ultimate solvent to their manufactured
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: propaganda and they can't have that.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Now. I understand there's some rule changes coming out of
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: the European Broadcasting Union. So how are the bureaucrats, I
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: guess we could say kneecapping the popular vote to keep
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Israel off the podium.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: And it's ironic considering there's Irish group Kneecap right that's
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: going around with their anti Israel vendettas as well, But yeah,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: it's pure bureaucratic knee kepping Gene. The bureaucrats in Europe
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: have looked at the data and they realized, to their horror,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: that the general public actually likes Israel. So what do
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: they do? They go full pollit bureau. They've dragged juries
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: back into the semi finals. They've slashed voting limits. They've
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: created a rigged shell game designed to suppress the wrong
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: kind of popularity. They can't control the hearts and minds
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: of the people sitting at home with their phones, so
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: they're trying to legislate the Jewish State out of the
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: running with rule changes that would make a Soviet central
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: planner blush redder than the USSR flag.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Interesting, you know, anticipating this, I did some research yesterday.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: The New York Times is framing Israel's marketing is what
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: they call a shadowy scheme. Now, if any other country
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: did this, we would call it promotion. So why is
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: it a conspiracy when the Jewish State or Jews more
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: broadly do it. When everybody else does it, and it's okay.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Those sneaky, conniving Jews gene. I mean, listen, if Sweden
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: spends a million bucks on a light show and a
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: PR blitz, the New York Times would call it national branding.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: When Israel does it, it's a clandestine scheme that might
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: as well be being run out of massade. Quite frankly,
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: and it's a shadowy pr play, the likes of which
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: they've hired David Ogilvy to come back from beyond the grave.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: This is the same old bottom shelf antisemitic tropes, the
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Jew as the puppet master who controls the whole thing,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: just dressed up in a press pass. They're not reporting,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: they're laundering their bias. They've decided the Jewish state isn't
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: allowed to compete on the same playing field as everyone
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: else without it being labeled a conspiracy. And as such,
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: they're going to go and say that, you know, Israel
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: is breaking the rules, but breaking news, they're not.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: What is this red, green, brown alliance?
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the the unholiest of alliances. Gene. You've
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: got the radical left, You've got Islamists, you've got the
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: old school fascists, and they've all met together at the
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: intersection of the venn diagram of jew hatred. That's the overlap.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: They've perfected Holocaust in version. They're taking the very tactics
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: used against the Jewish people and flipping the script to
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: cast Israel as the villain in this case, even though
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Israel was the one that was invaded on October the
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: seventh and has been one acting in self defense, and
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: two has the lowest civilians who combatant ratio that we've
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: seen in any modern engagement in modern history. Quite frankly,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: they've captured the narrative, though they'ven't filtraded the institution. We've
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: talked about that, the media, the universities and now the
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: European Broadcasting Union. They don't want debates, they don't want
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: artistic shows. They want a monologue where the only voice
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: allowed is the one that calls for the end of
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: the Jewish state period full stop.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting you've written about this, and of
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: course you're a spokesperson for many Jewish organizations. You make
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: a fascinating point that these activists there actually making the
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: best case for Zionism in a generation.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Explain that, Yeah, it's interesting. I mean, this is the
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: ultimate self own for the activists who are intent on
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: destroying the Jewish state. They think they're destroying Israel's reputation,
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: but they're actually just running the most effective Zionist campaign
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: in modern history. When a twenty year old girl needs
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: snipers on the roof and elite security details just to
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: perform a three minute pop song, in the heart of Europe.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: They're proving the point for us Israel needs to exist.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: They're showing the world exactly why a Jewish home is
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: a necessity, not a luxury. Every time that they scream
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: globalize the Intafada from the river to the sea, delete
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Israel from Eurovision, they're reminding every Jew on the planet
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: why Israel is absolutely necessary and why it's because Jews
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: aren't welcome in their own countries these days.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: It's frightening. You end your peace with and I'm sorry,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: but I'm going to get it wrong, but I'll try
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: my hardest. Israel Chai? Did I get it close?
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Amyusrael? Hai?
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Okay? What's the message you want to leave with people?
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: And what exactly does that.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Mean the people of Israel live. The message is simple, Gene,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: We're not going anywhere. This cultural liquidation is just the
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: latest chapter in a very old book. They call them
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: the hits for the reason you can always pull out
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: the record and put it on and it's going to
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: sound good. And that's unfortunately the story of anti Semitism.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: It always plays well, it always tracks, it will always
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: go to the top of the charts. They've decided to
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: erase US with decrees tanks in history, and now with
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: broadcast blackouts and bureaucratic paper cuts at a song competition.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: But here's the thing. We outlasted the Pharaohs, we outlasted
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: the Soviets, we outlasted the Nazis, and we're definitely going
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: to outlast a few mid level Eurovision bureaucrats. Amius reel
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: hai is not just a slogan, it's a historical fact.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: The music doesn't stop just because they turn off the speakers.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Ooh, and on that bomb. Thanks for the Eurovision report.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Like it. The article's great.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: Thank you, and I hope I never have to speak
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: about Eurovision again.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: You won't, I promise, Thank you. There he goes John Letkey.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: He always has a great take on things.
