Israel’s series “Red Alert” just earned a Critics Choice nomination for Best Foreign Language Series. The show tells real stories of heroism from October 7, ordinary Israelis who became heroes when terror struck. Premiering on Channel 12 and on Paramount+, it’s a global reminder that Israel’s story deserves to be seen, not silenced.

The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and the majority of its member states made the right decision to continue to include Israel in the Eurovision Song Contest, refusing to yield to pressure from the anti-Israel boycott movement. 

This is why more than 400 entertainment leaders, including Helen Mirren, Liev Schreiber, and Boy George, signed Creative Community for Peace’s open letter last year supporting Israel’s continued participation and rejecting efforts to turn Eurovision into a political weapon. 

In our letter Scooter Braun noted, “Artists should never be discriminated against for who they are, who they love, or where they’re born. These boycott efforts do nothing but distract from the uplifting and unifying power of music—something we need now more than ever.” 

Gene Simmons echoed this sentiment, saying, “Music unites people from all backgrounds. It’s the one language that everyone can understand. Those advocating to exclude Israelis from Eurovision don’t move the needle toward peace—they only further divide the world.” 

Israel also has a long and celebrated history in Eurovision, which includes winning the Contest in 1978, 1979, 1998, and 2018 and having a diverse group of contestants representing the country, including Palestinians, Ethiopians, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Every year, millions across Europe and around the globe join in this extraordinary celebration of cultural exchange—one that highlights the unifying power of music and brings people together from all backgrounds. 

This is why the entertainment community is disappointed by threats from several countries to withdraw, which would only punish their own citizens and fans of the Contest. 

We urge them to reconsider and uphold Eurovision’s core principle: to unite people and the world through a shared love of music.

European basketball is finally coming home to Israel.

After October 7, Maccabi Tel Aviv, Hapoel Tel Aviv, and Hapoel Jerusalem were forced to host every EuroLeague “home” game abroad. Now, after nearly a year, the league has officially voted to bring international games back to the Jewish state. Hapoel owner Ofer Yanai called it “a historic moment” — and it is.

Israel wasn’t sidelined because of talent, but because of terror. And now, Maccabi Tel Aviv (a six-time EuroLeague champion) can once again take the court where it belongs: at home.

Terror didn’t win. Israel is still standing.
