Eurovision in Tel Aviv is fine by me

It has officially been decided. The Eurovision contest next year will be hosted in Tel Aviv, rather than Jerusalem.

I do not know how they came to the decision, but it is fine by me. It is nice to promote the capital of Israel and get the tourism boost and injection of foreign money there, but not everything needs to be politicized, and Tel Aviv is a more natural fit anyway. Even Haifa and Eilat are more natural fits for the Eurovision contest than Jerusalem is. And that is fine by me. Surely some of the tourists coming for the big event will also make their way to Jerusalem and to other parts of the country.

There is no place like Jerusalem, but it is fine that some events take place elsewhere..
