Kiki Rebell
Künstler/innen gegen Eurovision Song Contest in Israel
Boykottaufruf
Kiki Rebell
Wegen der eklatanten Verletzung der Menschenrechte durch den israelischen Staat, der aggressiven Siedlungspolitik und der massiven Benachteiligung und Verfolgung von Palästinenser/innen und Oppositionellen in Israel und Palästina, rufen viele prominente Künstler/innen in einem offenen Brief zum Boykott des Eurovision Song Contest 2019 in Israel auf. Sechs Unterzeichner des offenen Briefes stammen aus Israel selbst.
Dutzende Sänger, Regisseure und Schauspieler haben sich für die Absage des Eurovision Song Contest in Israel ausgesprochen. Zu den Unterzeichnern des Boykottaufrufs gehören laut der Zeitung „The Guardian“ der Pink-Floyd-Mitbegründer Roger Waters und der britische Filmemacher Ken Loach, die beide als Aktivisten bekannt sind. Auch die Regisseure Aki Kaurismäki und Mike Leigh, die Schauspielerin Julie Christie, Sänger Helmut Lotti und der Musiker Brian Eno stehen unter dem offenen Brief auf der Liste.

Die israelische Sängerin Netta hatte im Mai mit ihrem Song „Toy“ den ESC in Portugal gewonnen. Dadurch findet der Wettbewerb im Mai 2019 regulär in Israel statt.
