“The Jews” were throwing parties “where people drink alcohol and everything” says a Palestinian. There is no golden rule in Islam. No do unto others …. au contraire.

World News May 15, 2019 / 8:04 AM / a day ago Eurovision Village partying upsets nearby mosque worshippers in Ramadan 2 Min Read TEL AVIV (Reuters) – The Eurovision Song Contest has found few fans in a famous mosque in the Israeli host city, where worshippers have complained that the gaudy festivities are disrupting their observances of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. FILE PHOTO: The minaret of the Hassan Bek Mosque is seen behind the Eurovision Village, an area for fans of the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest
A “Eurovision Village” pavilion set up on the Tel Aviv beachfront to host parties is located directly opposite the century-old Hassan Bek mosque, named after an Ottoman governor and frequented by Israeli Arabs from nearby Jaffa.
The 41-country songfest has been a focus of pro-Palestinian boycott calls, and some Muslims fasting daily as part of Ramadan resent the carousing of scantily clad Eurovision enthusiasts.
“It (pavilion) is in the wrong place because it is close to the mosque,” said worshiper Sa’d Abu Zakariya.
“When we pray inside there is no feeling of solemnity because of the sound … We stand here and we can hear the noisy songs.
Mohammad al-Akra, a Palestinian labourer from the occupied West Bank who prays at Hassan Bek, said “the Jews” were throwing parties “where people drink alcohol and everything”.
“Because of the noise we close the windows and doors,” said Abed al-Kareem Mohammad, another worshiper.
A spokeswoman for Tel Aviv city hall said the municipality “respects the Islamic religion, community and institutions” and noted that “there are also synagogues in the area affected by the heavy pressure of the crowds”.
The Eurovision Song Contest kicked off on Tuesday and ends on Saturday.
In the West Bank city of Bethlehem, a small group of Palestinian protesters came out against the contest.
“Israel is using Eurovision to distract attention from the crime of the Nakba,” one demonstrator’s placard read, using the Arabic term for the “Catastrophe” when hundreds of thousands of Palestinians fled or were displaced in violence that led to war between the new Jewish state and its Arab neighbours in 1948.
May 15 is traditionally the day Palestinians mark the “Nakba”.

I am sympathetic to this man’s complaint. I wish Moslems showed a comparable concern when they blare out their calls to prayer from mosque loudspeakers, but I see little evidence of that.
Nonetheless, here is a perspective from a voice respected here:
WHEN THIS AMERICAN WOMAN
When this American woman,
whose thighs are bound in casual red cloth,
comes thundering past my sitting place
like a forest-burning Mongol tribe,
the city is ravished
and brittle buildings of a hundred years
splash into the street;
and my eyes are burnt
for the embroidered Chinese girls,
already old,
and so small between the thin pines
on these enormous landscapes,
that if you turn your head
they are lost for hours.
— From Let Us Compare Mythologies by Leonard Cohen
More of your idiotic drivel. Of course, your ilk doesn’t bother to say what land was “stolen” or by whom, so there is nothing to discuss with you. “Palestinians” didn’t own the land anyway- absentee landlords did. In fact, there were no “Palestinians”.
But I agree. Moslems invaders conquered the Holy Land in the seventh century. Time to send them packing back to where they came from: Arabia!
Don’t worry about the idiot, they’re only spouting the brainwashing that comes from their professors or their imams. Pity really, full of sound, fury, and hate.
…according to demographics experts in America….they have three kids to every one of ours…you do the math.
And we’re supporting them with our tax dollars….along with the slaughter that goes on at Plan Parenthood….when do we get a say of where our tax dollars are spent???!
You are absolutely correct. The fact we are forced to surrender our tax dollars to Planned Parenthood is an outrage. It is not there to promote the common defense or any other constitutional obligation.
It6 appears even in death Margret Sangers dream is being realized. The black population of this nation is actually shrinking while being replaced by illegal aliens. Both Hispanic and muslim
…it is just a Canadian Muslim troll….there was a story in the spring of 2016 that Killary and the “hung..garian” hired 800 Muslim trolls before the election…I think they are still working and trolling. Pamela’s site attracts a large number of them and as we get closer to the next election their activities will increase.

Before any infidel feels sorry about this interference of concentration during these Muslim prayers check out what they are actually praying. You’re in these prayers, Kafir, and they ain’t wishing you well:
Indeed praying for us kufr, for our punishment and our suffering. How noble of them! s/

OMG……….
There are people,eating,drinking listening to music and having fun.
This of course drives the muslims nuts.
I say … TURN UP THE MUSIC AND PARTY ON………..
If it wasn’t for Pamela Geller and her group…you’d be hearing that horrific Islamic call to prayer in Manhattan five times a day from a mega mosque they were planning to build on the site of 9/11. Muslims build mosques on the sites of the “conquest.”
Thank God for Pamela Geller.

If the muzz don’t like the sound of civilised people partying once in a blue moon, tough.
Now they understand how westerners feel about calls to prayer.

When religion is based on rituals, I doubt if there is much concentration anyway.
Just mindless routine. Formalism is the only option left when there is no connection or spontenaety in religious activities.

Those muslims, like most of them, were already upset before they got to the mosque.
…they were birthed and bred to be “upset” until all non-Muslims are dead or enslaved. For 1400 years that has been their goal.

Well I am 100% supportive of Israel but I must ask why, when Israel is not even in Europe the contest is held there at all?
BTW the contest itself is colossal waste of time the number of memorable tunes to have come out of it is almost zero.
Because Europe was once a Bastion of Freedom. Europe is now circling the drain because of these degenerates. It gives them a great sense of nostalgia and warmth when they visit one of the only “True” Free Bastions of Freedom left on this planet that this muzlims slime has not contaminated with its repressive degeneracy. Therefore they welcome Israel because it makes them feel good and reminds them of the freedom they gave away to the cancer that is islam.

Why does Israel allow such whining, complaining, ungrateful people to live amongst them?
It is just as Churchill wrote in The River Wars these muzzie bastards have no beauty or grace in their lives. No songs or art only a grim life deprived of all sources of joy, except when they can find an unattended goat or donkey. Nasty bastards do not even use toilet paper.

They complain about others partying and celebrating?
How many people have to put up with the five times a day of the horrific sound of call to prayer by the Muslims…..EVEN HERE IN AMERICA!
When someone asked Obama what was his favorite sound….did he say his children’s laughter? Nope. He said the Islamic call to prayer! That tells you all you need to know about who he is and was….yet idiots lined up to vote for him because they were afraid to be called “racists” if they didn’t! We have become a nation of idiots.

WOW! Thousands of muslems were killed when Israel was REESTABLISHED in 1948. Why did the STORY not mention that muslems ATTACKED the reestablished country of Israel! This is why thousands of muslems were killed. I am surprised these muslems celebrate the “Nakba” war they started and LOST.

Now they know how it feels when their neighbors have to listen to the “call to prayer” multiple times a day played over a loudspeaker so it can be heard from miles. This party is only temporary, the prayer calls are daily.
