Eurovision goes political...

Gee, if the Israelis sang about the evils of George Bush, I'm sure that would be OK...

Eurovision Song Contest organizers said Thursday they might ban this year's Israeli entry, "Push the Button," because of its "inappropriate" political message.

The song warns about the dangers of nuclear war, but in an interview with the Israeli daily Yediot Ahronot, band members denied that the song is about Iran, calling that "absurd."

The song, to be performed at the contest in Helsinki in May, overwhelmingly won Israel's competition Wednesday. It is sung in English, French and Hebrew by the group Teapacks and seemingly refers indirectly to Iran 's nuclear ambitions and its hard-line leader, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

"It's absolutely clear that this kind of message is not appropriate for the competition," said Kjell Ekholm, an organizer of the contest. "We'll have all the delegation leaders here in Helsinki next week, and I'm sure we'll talk about this case within the European Broadcasting Union group."
