Ban them like they did the Russians

It's abit more complicated. Russia wasnt banned from participating in the Song Contest itself. Rather, the EBU has suspended the Russian broadcasters' memberships because of finding them spread propaganda. Which automatically means they cant participate.

In the case of Israel, if theh want to look into suspending Kan they need to find evidence that the broadcaster is not holding up to the standards of public broadcasting. And EBU hasn't done so in the cases of Turkey's TRT, Azerbaijan's broadcasters and similar cases where the country clearly has been committing war crimes recently.

You're not allowed, they were attacked first and they're Jewish. But they should really stop with the scorched earth tactics, if that's what's actually happening - I don't know what reports to believe.
