Europe

- Not super thrilled about Armenia and Greece's qualifications. I can see why they're popular, but they wouldn't have been my choices
- Give their spots to either Albania, Czechia, or Denmark imo
- Belgium, what happened man? Your performance wasn't at all as raw or powerful as the studio version ; - ;
- Intrigued that Estonia got through. I love their studio version as well, but it lacked a certain oomph in the live performance that I thought would cost them a placing
- San Marino on the other hand choked during their performance, almost literally it sounded, a shame, their studio version is also a bop
- Annoyed Israel made it through. I had hoped Europeans would have taken a stand there. I get that it's not a political competition, but there's being apolitical and then there's acceptance of genocide, and it feels like this leans more the latter than the former
- Listen the crowd during Europapa! If that doesn't finish top 3 in the final, I'm rioting (what's with the section of the song they used for the recap though? It's touching, sure, but doesn't represent the song at all)
- CHA CHA CHA (no war!)

You posted some cringe ngl, also what's up with the "Islams" and "Islamics" terms? It's Muslim lmao.

But your points are already being addressed, so I'll address this as someone who grew up with Islam and attending private Islamic education in my earliest years. Jizya is a little more complicated than "non-Muslim = high tax"

Jizya has historically varied in its amount and based on various factors such as pre-existing taxcodes to what individual payers/communities could afford.

Jizya was something only non-Muslims men who were fit to work and provide and who were under protection by the state paid, and often was covered under kharaj, which was a tax on land and produce, which Muslim landowners also paid but at different rates. As the protected non-Muslim communities were exempted from military service, jizya was the 'price' for that. Other non-Muslim communities did not pay taxes but instead had 'trade agreements' which occured a lot in North Africa. How one was taxed was mostly determined by ones relationship with the Islamic ruling state.

Poor Christians and Jewish communities were also during some periods granted stipends from the state sometimes funded by zakat, which is a sort of income tax Muslims pay. And other times were harshly treated to be reminded of their lower status as non-Muslims. Islamic taxcode history is wildly inconsistent in its practices mainly because the many different political entities that existed throughout Islam's history. But also because Muslim scholars can't agree on a whole lot lmao.

Jizya doesn't exist in modern times as other many forms of taxes in Islam don't. Which significally challenges Islamic jurisprudence, making the case for sharia coming to the West even more absurd as no Muslim country can get it 'right'
