Absolutely!
Back in 2022 the EBU was originally gonna allow Russia to participate on the basis that the Eurovision "Is not a political contest" even though it very much is.
Ukraine initially protested this but they, still, didn't budge.
Only after Finland, Estonia and Iceland threatened to withdraw (I think it was these three) and only then did the EBU decide to suspend Russia on the basis that their broadcaster was spreading misinformation and propaganda regarding the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The official statement given was not that they had an issue with one of the contestants actively invading another, rather that they weren't being honest about it.
It's worth noting that each country has to pay a participation fee based on their population. In other words, a country like Poland is not paying the same amount of money as a country like San Marino. You can therefore see why the EBU did not want to lose Russia. If one country with large population leaves that means the participation cost for the remaining ones will rise. In fact, Russia's expulsion has inadvertently caused Bulgaria's, North Macedonia's and Montenegro's withdrawal as they could no longer afford the participation fee. This year, Romania, a country with a large population but facing financial difficulties is possibly also withdrawing. Their participation is still up in the air, well after the period to announce their participation has ended, and Australia also took quite a well to finalize negotiations for their participation.
Just like they did with Russia, the EBU has already announced that they do not intend to ban Israel and unless no other countries complain about it and threaten to withdraw, like Estonia, Finland and Iceland did before for Russia, they're gonna keep Israel around.
I'm not here to discuss who should be allowed in and who not, because if we start with Israel then we should also take Azerbaijan, Serbia and every single northwestern European country that retains colonies around the world out too, but my point is, if the EBU's official reasoning for expelling Belarus was that they were trying to send a propaganda song and for Russia was that their broadcaster was spreading propaganda, I don't see how Israel's broadcaster isn't doing the exact same thing about the ongoing situation in Palestine.

to get perfectly political, I think that ESC should ban israel as they banned russia. I know that they wont ban it, but they should because allowing a violent country which is committing war crimes but banning the other is just hypochrisy. Ban both or ban no one.

Europe, we have a result
Sweden’s entry for Eurovision 2024 has been chosen! This year, the Norwegian twin duo, Marcus & Martinus will be representing Sweden with their song “Unforgettable”. The first people to go up and congratulate them were the duo Medina who came in 2nd place. There was a lot of tears and strong emotions and the boys made a great performance. Congratulations and a big good luck in Malmö.
I have thought long and hard about whether or not to post about esc this year, especially since it will be held in my home town. I decided to post the winner of melodifestivalen. However, what I will do during esc is still uncertain. The fact that Israel is still allowed in the competition is appalling and I can only hope the EBU will come to their senses and disqualify them for the horrendous war crimes they are committing. Free Palestine 🇵🇸

22. march 2024 esc wishes/predictions!!!
1. switzerland 🤞
2. croatia
3. ukraine
4. italy
5. belgium
6. netherlands
7. lithuania
8. norway
9. united kingdom
10. austria
i want lithuania and uk higher but they probably wont be sadly
italy is good but its competing with too many other girl bops (greece, cyprus)
if switzerland doesnt win i want netherlands but i just dont think theyll be the top 2 for some reason?
i feel like switzerland+belgium are competing with eachother and netherlands+croatia which will probably affect the scores a lot
also croatia wont do as good as käärijä sorry guys... :(
