I don't know the answer to this Glassers, but how should it be described?
I had a go earlier and described it as "the systematic dismantling of Gaza".
Whatever we agree it is, we must now all surely understand this has gone beyond the right to defend oneself?
Edit.
I should also add that I agree the Israeli singer is unfairly baring the brunt of the anger of those opposed to Israel's currently military operations in Gaza. [Post edited 12 May 12:38]

In isolation, your last sentence captures the spirit of the song perfectly Glassers.
Sadly, it's just become impossible to separate that and current systematic dismantling of Gaza by the state of Israel.
Israel are starting to lose important allies on the international scene. The US have sent a strong message already and Cameron has said this morning that the UK doesn't support an attack on Rafa and also criticised Israel's lack of consideration for aid to the tens of thousands of displaced Palestinians.
Whilst a strong performance in a signing contest may be a welcome filip for Israel in the current climate, it seems fairly inconsequential in the grand scheme of things.
Netanyahu is seemingly a power crazy lunatic and the damage he is doing to the reputation of Israel may set the state back for years, maybe decades.
Anyhoo, not sure how a thread about europop has ended up here! |

I can't attach photos, but I live just north west of Cambridge and they looked amazing. Never seen them before.
Stunning. [Post edited 11 May 8:24]

I think if KM fancies him, we'd find ourselves in a strong position to get him.
I like him as a player, but think he would have to adapt his style to fit in with our formation. I think we'll be starting with Hirst as the lone striker, so SS would have to fit into the 10, which of course puts pressure on Chappers.
I don't know too much about SS's history, but I've never heard anything, so would come baggage free, which always features highly on KM's tick sheet. |

Next season is likely to be very tough.
Whilst I fully believe that KM will make us competitive and have aspirations higher than mine (i.e. finishing 17th!), it will require a large amount of patience from the fan base. I guess the short termism is just a product of modern life that has naturally spread to football. We've seen plenty of it even over the last two remarkable seasons.
It will be a time for calm heads and even if it doesn't work out, we will have seen some of Europe's (possibly even the world's) best footballers grace the hallowed Portman Road turf.
I'm part aprehensive, part excited, but I do know that I'll be behind the manager and players throughout.

Not get blown out of proportion on social media?
Yeah. That will never happen!
I like the fact the players are letting their hair down, but a part of me did wince just a little with that interview. Not that I don't disagree with the Goodman comments of course!
I think KM will have a quiet word at some point! |

Well done Sone.
Consummate professional.
Derided by some of the no nothings.
Clearly a great role model behind the scenes.
Be great to keep him on board if possible. |

I've got family connections to West Ham.
It seems that Moyes will just be leaving at the end of his contract. No sacking, resignation or going behind backs. It's just come to the end, very much like it did with Mick.
Not too much to see here. |
