It is not a political arena, but that won't stop the shouting. They've never withdrawn before in the face of other countries with less than great records, so why now? This is in no way a diminishing of what is happening in Gaza, which is a horrible crime.

Definitely, politics doesn’t need to be in every aspect of life, it’s wrong.

I’ve got a bridge to sell anyone who thinks Eurovision isn’t political :lol:

The country boycotting eurovision while we’re still charging protestors for the same cause with terrorism seems a bit daft tbh.

You're right it is political, that's been the case for a long time, just that it shouldn't be.

If we're making it political will Palestine be pro homosexuality and same sex marriage in return?
How about not having a sig at all?

Spain (one of the big 5) joins Netherlands, Ireland, Slovenia, and Iceland in threatening to boycott.. along with UN announcement today , there’s no way Israel should be allowed to participate
