Re: Possible Hosts for 2013

I would say it's pathetic to believe or refer to these extreme hate sites. Why would anyone care what they going on about? The disturbing thing is that their twisted content are discussed here on a Eurovision Song Contest forum. How uncool isn't that?

I think when a Muslim non-ethnic Swede in Sweden is applauded for her statements on neo-nazi/White supremacy forums then it's quite telling.

Funny though since you're the one sharing all these weird links in here, but I guess since that fits your world-view it's ok? Also, it's not as if someone in here have linked to those awful neo-nazi forums or anything.

@ A-lister

I do not know about the statements you are referring to so I cannot take a stand there. Until I see proof of your severe accusations I shall not change my opinion about her (in dubio pro reo.)
Lol at me twisting your words. It is exactly the other way around actually. I have just said they would be representative for the Malmö cityscape. Plus you had your "natives" in Stockholm 2000 anyway. If they find better blond hosts though – great, I shall be all for them. :D

Re: Possible Hosts for 2013

^ A-lister doesn't have any proof since the real story is so lame. I didn't know the Neo-Nazis are using her to tease the Ekeroth twins and the Breivik crusaders (are there more than 100 Nazis in Sweden?). These underground networks are just backtalking Gina to stir up unrest and uncertainty in Swedish society. The fact she is associated with Melodifetivalen is just an additional bonus for them (as they are passionate haters).

^ No dear, read the thread before making presumptions. How do suggest handling repeatedly accusations someone of being Neo-Nazi without any grounds?

You know, normally I disagree with you a lot on most issues, but THIS!

Can the pair of you two just keep whatever political disagreements and ideas on what constitutes neo-Nazism and anti-semitism and who's this or who's that to another thread or forum altogether?! I'm sure we all have opinions on Dirawi, I mean I definitely do anyway, but there's a place for them and this isn't it. The relevance of your arguments aside, we're all sick to the back teeth of this constant back and forth between ye, as it's always the same arguments.

NOW, on a more relevant topic, that online rag Oikotimes has posted something allegedly from Aftonposten that Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Carola are the two favourites for the host. I wonder is there much truth to this does anyone know? Personally I'd hate Carola, she's old and tired and has backward views, and I can't see Zlatan being much of a host.

Re: Possible Hosts for 2013

I'd be extremly shocked in a bad way if they went with either Zlatan or Carola. I know Carola is a schlager ledgend and the Zlatan is a very good football player but to have either as a host of Eurovision would be a major, very major failure of svt.

Proof? Gina compared Israelis with German nazis and promoted an anti-semitic book on her own blog. Why are you defending her? I guess the only reason is that you agree with her opinions.

Backtalking? So she didn't post those posts on her blogs then? So why is SVT always making her appologize publically then? Because of false accusations? The only liar here is you.

My statemens are true, Laleh is lying to you because she defends Gina's opinions.

Look, I couldn't care less about Gina, why would I make up such accusations from nowhere? She posted herself on her blog comparing Israel with Nazi Germany and Hitler, she promoted a book by an infamous anti-semitic who say that the holocust was made up etc. SVT even forced her to "appologize" twice already, so you say I make this up? If it's all made up why did SVT want her to appologize then?

I don't know why Laleh is defending her, but I simply don't want someone who hates on people and participating countries to be a face for all Sweden.

Our hosts in 2000 sucked, I simply want good hosts that is a good representation for us. I don't care about their ethnicity but to say that they should not be Swedish is quite disturbing. Malmö is an effed up city, nothing to be proud of. All Sweden is hosting this, not just Malmö. Malmö doesn't even have the cash for such an event as that joke of a city (my homecity) survives on living on other cities' money.

So, you're just continuing with random political propaganda without any real life validity. I was waiting for your "version" of the "truth" about Gina as well. It seems you don't care or don't know what it was all about. Are you just making coverage of proceedings in Swedish hate sites or what?

No I just argued why I don't want her as a hostess. Most people in here atleast get it even if they may not agree with me, you however seem to not get my point of view on purpose.

But hey ho, she'll probably not be the hostess of ESC anyway (let's hope).

She wont. If she was, they wouldnt have chosen her for MF.

I hope for Helena Paparizou !She deserves it !

Sorry GRE, but I don't want Helena as a hostess! I want a person that has at least some Swedish descent to host it!

Re: Possible Hosts for 2013

Why? What has she done for Sweden????

I know right? She's born and raised here, yet she moved away and acted like she wasn't Swedish anymore. She "promised" that after Antique in 2001 she would enter MF next time, nothing, then she did the exact "promise" after 2005. Sweden doesn't need her though, she's a nobody here and can she even host in the first place?
