Not entirely, as Dan has been saying.
But all we can do is make our choices.
I think...
Should we be playing guitar?
That's a good question.
But you can't take away from the fact there is massive public interest and public opinion on this issue.
And there is the case that more than guitar, Israel claims to be a democracy, claims to be part of the Western Hemisphere, in quotes, competes in the Eurovision with those countries.
It makes those claims, and yet it is clearly...
repudiated and rejected those standards in recent years.
I'll leave that to the FAI.
They have a strike of balance there.
I would prefer not.
And I'd say one thing.
I know there's a significant concern about two things.
One is, will Ireland look like it's anti-Semitic?
And obviously it can be anti-Israeli policy and not anti-Semitic.
But the other thing is, if we go ahead with the matches...
the protests that will occur inside and outside the stadium will let those who think Ireland is anti-Semitic be even more strong in that case.
And the other thing to say is that US public opinion is turning significantly against Israel.
The latest polls say 60% are now concerned about the US relationship with Israel, 80% among Democrats.
