Good. More should. Even if we ignore the political/genocide issue, after the blatant cheating Israel did last year, they shouldn't be fucking welcome. No, they can fuck the fuck off.
Cheating? Was boycotting last year as well, so a bit out of the loop 😅
Israel had one of the shittiest songs last year, it was universally agreed that it was crap.
Yet somehow it managed to be second, mainly through public votes - and it's been contested a few times that Israel, against the rules of public voting, ran advert campaigns in European countries to push their public to vote for them (public can't vote for their own country).
The year before that wasn't without controversy as well. Not surprised to see NL on the list of countries noping out this year.
