And now that the EBU have backed down over the war with the Israeli broadcaster, David can pour all his energies into his incredibly high voice. The proposed EBU rule of extending the voting of the semi final on May 12th until the day of the final itself on the 15th has been thankfully now dumped. The Israeli broadcaaster, IBA's argument is that the new voting regime;
"damages the equality principle of the song contest's voting. Those who will vote in the days after the semi-final will not be able to remember the songs properly". "In addition, part of the votes will probably be of those who would not even watch the semi-final. This kind of voting will be motivated by promotional campaigns which Israel and other countries do not have the ability to organize".

"I hope I will be the pride of Israel in the Eurovision Song Contest. I haven't yet started collecting possible songs, but my intention is to appeal to leading songwriters and to compose myself a few songs", says D'or, who will have until the end of the year to decide. 
This nation is in need of something to be proud of, especially in these difficult times", D'Or added.
