If they make the rules more strict to exclude Israel

Israel shouldn’t be excluded because they’re not European. They should be excluded because they’re doing a genocide. The same way they already excluded Russia for their war on Ukraine. There’s no reason that should have any bearing on Australia one way or the other.

As for not rocking the boat, that’s an incredibly weak excuse. I’d rather Australia be kicked out of Eurovision permanently than give one ounce of support to genocide.
