But the audience decide and not the jury.
So how do you see here a political reason?
Btw israel is really not a favorite of the political world so that is not the reason.
I think the reason netta won is a lot of teens identify them self with her. And se brpught something different something new to the stage. Look how many views her clip has against other competitors.
Did you vote?
The votes are made either by sms or by calling... a simple app can do that, plus they are "counted" by a computer program...
I'm not saying that the voting was rigged, but, taking the latest developments in international politics towards Israel, for me it' no surprise.
Remember when the former Yugoslavia was separated and Bosnia first entered the contest... a slap in the back is always appreciated no matter where it comes from or in what shape.
Even the Portuguese song that won last year, although it had a beautiful poem, it was not a winner song.
IMHO, the last great eurosong winners were ABBA and Johnny Logan.
