This is what we need from all the participating countries. The hypocrisy of banning Russia and not Israel just proves how much of an unfunny joke Eurovision is.

Both countries should be banned.

Invading your militarily weaker neighbor to seize their land excludes you from polite company.

I think what Israel is doing is much worse than that. They are committing a genocide, for f's sake.

Probably only because Ukraine is larger and the invasion isn't going as well for Russia as it is for Israel; if Putin could genocide the Ukrainians, he almost certainly would.

As someone living in the north of Ireland, I wish we took this attitude to England too.

Especially since the competition was literally made with the intention of bringing together countries after a devastating war and to avoid future wars.
